I do, too
There is a relatively vocal portion of our society that would construct government in a way that conforms to their religious views... for example, is there an argument against homosexual marriage that isn't based in religion?
I take HUGE issue with that... I will not live my life according to rules that supposedly came from a sky wizard. If there is a logical and tangible reason for doing x or y, then make your case... but if it's because its what god wants, then tough chit.
This is in no way an indictment of Freethinker... I am speaking in general terms... I'll argue about religion no matter what the venue or genesis of the conversation... religion and politics... If I'm gonna babble on about something, might as well be them two _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

"That is not accurate. Physical laws are observable, replicable, predictable, and mathematically "provable"
That is what separates them from spiritualism.
Just because someone believes in a god, that does not make that god "real""
----
If you still think that physical laws are mathematically provable, then you need to check out Godel's Incompleteness Theorem...It proves beyond a doubt, that math ceases to work when extreme cases are reached. And while you're at it, check out Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle...It proves that some things are unknowable...And I'm not wasting words here---not "unknown" but unknowable...When scientific thought encounters explanations of the origins of anything, it does not supply examples that are replicable, observable or "provable". _________________ where-ever you get it - there you have it. - Anon. |
