The relationship between education and religion | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 14:10:37 |
| Well, I for one must disagree with you... |

... they must acknowledge that there is absolutely no empirical evidence for the existence of god
This is where I must disagree. Look at how neatly the fundamental equations of the universe fit together. Look at Maxwell's equations. Look at Einstein's equation (not E=mc2, the other one that I'm drawing a blank on atm). Also, I take the human body (and the canine, and the feline, and the reptilian, and what-have-you) as evidence of God. Look how amazingly everything fits together. Look at the knee joint, the fingers, the thumb, the vertebrae. Look at our repair mechanisms. Look at the intricate process of DNA replication. Look at transcription and translation. Look at our circulatory system, our lymphatic system, our nervous system. Look at the amazing intricacy of the Krebs cycle. I could go on for hours.
Now, can you really look at all this, and still tell me that God doesn't exist?

So all it takes to get to Heaven is fear of Hell? | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 15:13:27 |
|
Never heard of "putting the fear of God" into | by LionsPhil | 2003-04-17 15:15:57 |
|
Yeah, but I always assumed that to be Christian... | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 15:17:09 |

Yeah, but | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 15:17:37 |

I never said... | by defdood | 2003-04-17 15:23:09 |

I don't think fear is an argument for believing. | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 15:26:32 |

Well how can people be afraid of hell | by Spisefisken | 2003-04-17 15:27:03 |

Doesn't work too well | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 15:27:44 |

Well, I probably shouldn't have made them listen | by EvilLionsPhil | 2003-04-17 16:01:09 |

You know, you're supporting an idea that I read | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 19:27:12 |

Well, in Christian mythology | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 15:12:13 |

Does God even HAVE nuts? | by LionsPhil | 2003-04-17 15:14:26 |

Well, it would be more of a symbolic gesture | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 15:20:10 |

Free will is an illusion. | by LionsPhil | 2003-04-17 15:24:54 |

Yeah, right | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 16:35:44 |
|
Limbo? | by Egaeus | 2006-11-19 12:55:59 |

That's not a scary question | by mortaine | 2003-04-17 15:11:59 |
|
Erm... | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 19:31:54 |
|
I was wondering | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 20:17:26 |
|
Nope, no crow for me. | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 19:18:45 |
|
heh, no one ever tries to answer this point. (n/t) | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 16:32:51 |
|
Physics explains everything... | by rapido75 | 2003-04-17 19:49:16 |
|
Actually, no it doesn't. | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 19:59:48 |
|
IMO, It explains enough... | by rapido75 | 2003-04-18 00:27:13 |
|
No, it doesn't. | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 20:02:14 |
|
God is unexplainable... | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 20:07:03 |
|
Gaaah! | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 20:12:37 |
|
Yup! :) | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 20:15:34 |
|
Heck no... | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 20:16:41 |
|
Possibly. | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 20:19:22 |
|
Well, you can't.... | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 20:23:55 |
|
Correct | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 20:28:24 |
|
So why not just simply say... | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 20:25:14 |
|
Sure... | by Illiad | 2003-04-17 20:29:02 |
|
That's not empirical evidence. | by Arcanum | 2003-04-17 14:53:55 |
|
Beat me to it | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 14:55:56 |
|
Did I say god doesn't exist? | by Egaeus | 2003-04-17 15:44:30 |
|
Look at the human eye | by migiizis | 2003-04-17 15:55:17 |
|
the eye is kinda neat in how it compensates... | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 16:00:57 |
|
I know | by migiizis | 2003-04-17 16:03:18 |
|
maybe it's just that Octopi are God's Chosen, | by BlurOfSerenity | 2003-04-17 16:04:21 |
|
It's probably dolphins. | by LionsPhil | 2003-04-17 16:09:54 |
|
Well, they are... | by rapido75 | 2003-04-17 19:41:08 |
|
Kinda lends credence to the Cthulhu thing no? | by migiizis | 2003-04-17 16:11:23 |
|
There's a website somewhere | by LionsPhil | 2003-04-17 16:05:41 |
|
But is that a mistake? (n/t) | by Llyr | 2003-04-17 17:21:01 |
|
Exactly.. | by rapido75 | 2003-04-17 19:44:45 |
|
Yes, I can. It's physics and evolution | by rapido75 | 2003-04-17 19:48:40 |
