"Hide" Science actually works. Religion not so much.

True in mathematical potentials, but actually infinite line cannot have a start. I cannot be limited. That is the definition of infinity is unlimited.

Either time is limited or not. If it is unlimited it cannot be contained in finite space so let alone start from your nose.

In your eagerness to argue your point, you are deliberately being stupid.  This doesn't add weight to your argument-- it just diminishes our view of your ability to make argument.

Bingo.  My expectations are so diminished that I don't think he could make his argument if I gave him god...and gave him the notion that god was his god.  

Even with that monumental assist, all of his work would still be ahead of him, and he would fail.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Religion is fine.  Where else can old ladies I don't know be coerced into making coffee cake for me?  Also, without religion, there would have been no Catholic schoolgirls, and I might still be a virgin today.

@MK
When you read science, just read: "honest observation."  That's good enough.  The fact is that for all your double talk, there is no actual reason based on anything we can experience of ourselves or our universe to support your goofy God idea.

Now, I'm fine with the idea that there may be some philosophical or existential quantity so great that I'd call it God.  But your ideas are so clearly biased and lacking in rationale that they need to be moved over to the religion threads.  Philosophy-- you're doing it wrong.

When you find yourself struggling with a hard materialist and a hard idealist...the only term that could describe it is infinite bi-directional failure.  Wink
