Science shows us he doesn’t exist.![]()
Oh? since when can you prove a metaphysical statement empirically?
lol. I imagine anyone who can prove the existence of any deity would win the nobel prize.
I'm sure someday you'll reach the top of the bell curve.I'm sorry.
That's not what I said.
Read it again: "prove a metaphysical statement empirically"
Let's think of an example.. When you're in deep shit with a physical illness, science/medicine helps you and not your fucking imaginary friend in the air lmao
Science has not been able to recreate (or even create) hard and fast evidence that this theory a god or gods exist. Science as we know it hasn't been able to do that, and I trust science more than I do the perceived words of a small group of people who may or may not have been taking drugs, mentally ill, or just so ignorant of how their world works that they decided an all-powerful life form somehow exists up in a little place called heaven.Science shows us he doesn’t exist.![]()
Ironically enough while science may not be able to prove god exists... yet. It can make biblical miracles happen.
For example... the dead sea is highly salty. that makes it incredibly dense and so under the right conditions one could walk on it.
Water into wine? just add powder.
burning bush that emits no heat and talks? Projections and holograms.
Sky chariots? Aircraft/spacecraft.
I could go on but the truth is in today's world even something like localized omniscience is possible... after all we all have phones in our pockets with cameras and microphones right? collate that data and you're omniscient to anything around anyone in range. Use the internet and deductive reasoning and you too can appear relatively omnipotent to the uninitiated.
So really what makes "god" so special? He's jealous, easy to anger, quick to smite, and all but demands fealty as most gods do. "Thou shalt not have any gods before me."
Honestly he sounds pretty damn human to me. And unlike god science doesn't care who you are, only about facts and truth no matter the cost to gain that truth.
I put my faith in science any dayBecause knowledge is power and absolute knowledge means the world is your oyster.
