[quote=RedskinRat;1008962]CRR, please look at the scientific method and see if it's a progressive or recessive activity?

Why would anyone think that we will discover less or regress on what we are currently able to explain?[/quote]

Of course, the scientific method is progressive. The faith stems not from the assertion that we can discover more; it stems from the assertion that, through the scientific method, we can discover all.

I believe we will continue to discover more, but you don't say we will discover more, you say science will one day find a way to measure everything. That is a statement of faith, and you believe it with all that is in you, but nothing in peer reviews, or scientific exploration makes that a provable statement. Maybe there is something that science will never fully explain. Maybe not. I would claim to be an agnostic in that depth of scientific faith.

Science, and the scientific method, is a great tool for understanding and learning about what is around us. The human race is better for its use and the more we can learn and expand it's knowledge base, the better we all will be. But it does not reveal all, nor does it in and answer every question that describes the human condition, and I believe it's not likely to, in this lifetime, or 100 lifetimes from now. If there is an asymptote of understanding, in my belief, God is the vertical truth, and science is the 1/x progressing closer and closer, but never touching or exceeding the axis.

^^I find that hilarious considering how many religious leaders have sent troops to die for selfish reasons. Not to mention the war crimes that have been committed by said leaders.



.....and with that....

seriously, 105 people died in 13 embassy attacks during clinton/bush, and i think a grand total of 3 hearings were held FOR ALL OF THEM COMBINED.

meanwhile, the guy waving his d*ck around about these hearings is the same guy who voted against increased funds for embassy security before the attack.

it's show pony politics at its worst.

Re: Pics For Sharing & Debating
 

Yup. God and science simply can't coexist. Oh wait ...

“There can never be any real opposition between religion and science; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective person realizes, I think, that the religious element in his nature must be recognized and cultivated if all the powers of the human soul are to act together in perfect balance and harmony. And indeed it was not by accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were deeply religious souls.” Max Planck

"My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds.
That deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God..." Albert Einstein

More Einstein:
"The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the source of all true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms -- this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religion."

Mendelson, Copurnicus, Lemaitre, Kepler ...

Clearly, they simply prayed their way to brilliance.

True story - my mother once told me that we should not have a space shuttle or space program because we will all be damned for trying to get near heaven while we are still alive.
I think she thinks heaven exists just beyond the orbit of the moon.

Re: Pics For Sharing & Debating
 

there is simply willful ignorance on both sides of the argument.

Those who argue there is no god, when the infinite and infinitesimal of the Universe argue otherwise, are as foolish, as those who say God is and therefore science is not.

JR's post of the symmetry, balance and complimentary nature of Science and God, is a reflective and rational approach.

Science disproves religion.

We have far greater minds now taking the side of science against religion due to the cowing of bullying theists than ever before.

The Universe is huge, there must be a god.

**** sake.........

And I've yet to meet a theist who is dumb enough to dismiss science, just a few who are obviously less thrilled with anything scientific that upsets their worldview.

CRR, you have an odd outlook, but it amuses me so please continue.

Maybe smallpox and other things that cause mass deaths was gods way of removing the weak from the gene pool. Science f*&ked it up and thats why we have so many sick people all the time. I mean if science was so great why do people have more problems then ever before?
