Science and religion

[jstrodel]

Darkstar, you used the word "demostratably", but you don't ever demostrate your conclusions. Every one of your posts that I have seen has argued from authority. Just admit it, your faith is in science. You use science and logical words, but that is not how you build your belief system. Your knowledge of science comes from reading popular level books, not from doing science.

But science works...

Works to do what? To build computers? To give you what you want?

What does science have to say about the meaning of life? About love? About how to raise a family? About virtues? About the origin of the universe? About the direction that human civilizations should go.

Not much.

They are all of equal probability, as they all claim to have miracles performed right in front of their eyes.

Again, what makes yours any more true than the others.
A muslim/sikh/hindu/thelemite would tell me the same things you are telling me.

I am not necessarily arguing that their miracles are false. There are spiritual forces that exist in other religions. The question is whether the claims of their religion can express a coherent possible description of the origin of the universe. Christian theology definatly can, and has been considered so for 2000 years.
