A question about original sin.

[Captain Scarlet]

I liked your response it held different ideas. I just think the acceptance of just science as truth is boring.
If i could prove that God was real we wouldn't be talking right now but you would be acknowledging that God against your will simply because he was real and you would be punished kinda like the laws and judicial system.
But i want to know sense science is the answer, than why don't the newspapers and tele proclaim its proof that is all powerful and everything else is a lie. That if knowledge is going to fix the problem, then we cant let the parents that preach teach there kids what they know. You must stop this or it will always be the the same. Unless...

In the last 100 years the media has indeed gone to science rather than theology. Secondly the medias primary job is to report and not make the news, if they were to proclaim as such they would be making the news. Thirdly they would also be alienating their followership, most of whom have been raised on a diet of various different forms of theological sewage from parents and religious hierarchies. Your challenge is thus invalid.

But given all its inherent disadvantages science still forces it was into the agenda, because it works and explains our world much more powerfully than any theology
could. The amazing discoveries of the 20th century have brought us a fantastic set of technologies and understanding of our world and are in my view not at all boring, especially when contrasted against tablets of stone and burning bushes. Then in contrast think of the theocracies around the world which have embraced bronze age thinking of their religious texts and have thus returned their societies to the bronze age and control there media to the extent that they deny scientific claims in spite of the evidence.

Now to the challenge i set you, which you have avoided. You want to talk of perfection, you believe a perfect god. Whether that god exists or not that perfect
god can be conceived of. So prove that this god can exist ,not does exist, but can exist and what are his attributes?

And add to that a new challenge. You do not accept science has primacy in seeking truth. Name a single theological discovery which has replaced a scientific discovery at any time in human history.
