Most of what we hear are all the ways that it isn't separate at all. In trying to paint the supernatural assertion and it's insistence that it not be held to any standard in a supportive light you are no longer discussing the supernatural assertion.(September 13, 2017 at 3:04 pm)Khemikal Wrote: -and the study of what happens in it. The very moment that the "supernatural" world presents itself in the natural world...as every adherent of every religion insists has happened so very many times...they are no longer separate.
This, assuming, that they're both fields at all, rather than one being the rationalizations for your silly beliefs.
Yeah, the main point being that we are all aware of a natural world. No one alive knows -except perhaps by faith (whatever that means)- what 'supernatural' means. That is simply hypothetical for all intents and purposes.
So science is the study of the empirical world and theology is the study of a system of beliefs with an alleged connection to a hypothetical and entirely undiscoverable separate realm. That's more than apples and oranges. That's apples and Smurfs.
You've have begun to discuss apologetics. A thing that human beings do in the natural world when their supernatural assertions regarding the natural world tank.
Apples to apples.
