Atheistic Dogma- Scientific Fundamentalism

If evidence arises that points to a thing, it'd be stupid to ignore it. I just recognize that the time to believe in a thing is when you have positive evidence for it, and that the stronger that evidence is, the more likelihood one should attribute to that thing. At the moment we have very little that actually points to design specifically, which means I don't afford the idea any belief, but that's not the same as concluding that it's impossible.

Quote:If you do that's good. A lot of atheists I know do not.

If that's true, it's not because of their atheism, but something else.

Quote:Beyond that, I'm concerned about some of the variables that have been identified by scientists recently that could be interfering with our ability to get an accurate picture of reality. "Dark Matter" and "Dark Energy" variables are of particular concern as it seems the 96% unobservable reality could possibly influence the 4% observable reality in significant ways.

The time to believe that some additional, unknown variable is influencing our science is when we have some indication that this is so. Without something detectable, what reason do we have to even suspect it?
