Quote:I think it's more arrogant to assert that "there's nothing unscientific about miracles" and then imply that it's because science just hasn't figured it out yet.
Why? Saying something is "unscientific" implies that science has disproved it. There is no science anywhere not one journal not one paper no experiment nothing anywhere that you can point to anywhere that disproves the existence of miracles.
Quote:As I said elsewhere, the universe as described by the believer is remarkably similar to the universe as described by the non-believer. Maybe science hasn't caught up. Maybe god is hiding from us. Maybe he won't let us understand his grand ways.
I am glad you are open to this possibility. It is the only scientific position, since science cannot disprove the miraculous.
Quote:Well... maybe he's not there, and that's why it seems as if he's not there.
God doesn't seem like H'Shem is not there to me. I see miracles regularly. I know that they exist and it seems absolutely ridiculous to me for anyone to suggest that something I experience on a regular basis does not exist simply because they aren't spiritual enough to experience it.
