[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 6944951, member: 549629"] This is the sad reality of how little some religious people allow themselves to understand science. There's one major difference between your religion, and science, skyline: verification. Science does not ask you to have faith in anything. Science only states as fact what can be tested, verified, and proven. The big bang? Evolution? There's a reason the word "theory" is placed behind these terms. Its to demonstrate science has not proven them, and therefore does not expect you to have faith in it beyond what we CAN prove. I see this argument more and more all the time. Religious people wanting to believe science is just another religion. Validation through association. The most core idea of a scientist is to not simply have faith in anything. Its kind of sad to see someone so misunderstand that, just to validate their own religious beliefs. Furthermore, if your God does exist skyline, he will know if you go to church every week just to hedge your bets on heaven and hell. If you are gonna have faith, you better dive in feet first, or you are simply kidding yourself. I would never have posted this, if you (skyline) hadn't opened this box first. I believe in live and let live. I usually keep my mouth shut on religion, but I wont stand by and watch misinformation be spread. [/QUOTE]
