Me and My Thoughts

RE: Me and My Thoughts
Quote:I mean, that's really the whole point of science, which is to explain the everyday things that we see around us without invoking a God.
No, the whole point of science is to learn. Got nothing to do with removing god or adding him. It's all about where the evidence points. There is no evidence to support god and so there for, god is not used as an explanation. Just as there is no evidence for pink rabits under the moons surface, and so they are not used as an explanation to anything.

Hey, welcome to the forums BTW.Big Grin

Quote:For example, a scientist might be able to explain how the planets go around the sun by using the laws gravity, motion, the curvature of space, etc. But, he doesn't know where all the laws of the universe came from in the first place, does he? Nobody knows that.
If we don't know something, we admit to not knowing. One day, we might very well know.

Quote:So, I think this the place where a Law Maker, or a God/Allah/Creator or whatever you want to call it, is needed.
So from going to "I don't know" to "god did it"? Not very rational. Your jumping from science to baseless assertion. Why jump to god if there is no evidence to even suggest that a god exists?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
