Why science and religious fatih need not be in conflict: It's as easy as 1-2-3!

Try again.  I never said science is the only way to know.  In fact, I was specifically laying out how one might remain scientifically literate while maintaining beliefs which cannot be verified by science.  But nuance is probably the first thing to go once you adopt the spiritual dogma, hey mate?


Mate.  Hi

By saying......You can trust science-the-method to investigate the nature of the empirical world more than any other method ever proposed..............you already say something wrong.
Intuitional science was proposed thousand years before anyone would start physical science.  Lightbulb

But again by praising physical science as the cream of knowledge you once again fail to see too far in front of your nose.

Was intuitional 'science' truly ever proposed or was it just grunted by primitives who wouldn't understand the idea of a conditional?  Of course I realize you think I've said something incorrect.  But of course your perspective is relative to the odd things you believe, one of which is that only you are in touch with the absolute truth.  (Not one person here is impressed with your 'credentials'.)

Maybe "intuitional science" was scrapped for being total shit?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Oh I don't know. I still use intuition quite a bit. I just don't cite it as evidence when conversing with others. If an intuition has any value, you must be able to put some legs on it. If you can't, you should either shut up or accept being viewed as a wanker like Rik.

Intuitional "science" is crap.  Billions of people throughout history have been "looking within."  None of the crap you spout comes from that practice.  Your spiritual crap is nothing but dogma passed down through the centuries.  Your beliefs about "God" are crap.  You have nothing but a feeling to show for your efforts.  "Feelings" as evidence is crap.  No matter how many excuses you give for not being able to show the truth of your "intuitional science" they will remain just that: pathetic excuses.  Fuck you and your dogmatic 'spirituality'.  You're nothing but a clone of older myths and legends.  Nothing in your meditation is guiding you.  On that score, you're nothing but a deluded crank.  Your intuitional science hasn't and won't deliver anything real because it's nothing but dogma influenced navel gazing.

Rik doesn't give a shit about anything but Rik.

He makes absolutely no effort to understand anything anyone says. He just preaches his nonsense over and over. While I disagree with many of the theists I run into, most listen and at least try to respond to your points so there is some sort of conversation. Not so with the asshole Rik.
It's like talking to a wall of self righteous crap, so into the ignore list for this moron.
If god was real he wouldn't need middle men to explain his wants or do his bidding.

Though to be fair he does think of himself as at one with it all so all the shit he gives about himself is, from his point of view, shit he intends to extend to the entire universe.  So, perversely, he is actually quite generous ... maybe

I'll pass on that heaping shovel full of horse shit he seems to be so willing to share. You can have mine for your lawn or garden.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Huh, you just made me realize, I no longer have any lawn.  The hell strip between the sidewalk and the street still has a horrible running grass.  The bastard who owns the neighboring building actually planted the stuff on purpose and piped irrigation more than forty feet onto my hellstrip from his.  If I wasn't so afraid of wasting a ton of water since I have no shut off, I'd rip the plumbing out of there.  Instead I've tried to disable them all by pouring pic glue over the sprinkler heads.
