Agree, but you have free will to do so if you please."Faith" is just believing in things that have no evidence. Pointless.
There is a significant difference between what we don't know and God. I don't know many things and don't expect the existence of God to make any difference to most of them. People invest faith in a multitude of things, mostly people but also scientific models as well as deities.Agree, but you have free will to do so if you please.
If you want to call what it is we don’t know, ’God’, knock yourself out.
Religion attaches dogma and structure to that notion though, that is controlling and very definitely man made.
science is often the argument used against god."Faith" is just believing in things that have no evidence. Pointless.
Who said I BELIEVE in singularities? And yeah...the bible has attempted to explain the world and how it came to be. haha. Huge failure and proof that the bible is the work of clueless ancient men. The god of the bible proves ITSELF to be false.The 'god of the gaps' is not one most modern Christians recognise. Religious faith is not in competition with science to provide an explanation of the world, it provides a meaningful context for that enterprise.
like singularities?
Guess what corrects science? It's clearly NOT faith. In fact, it's the OPPOSITE of faith. Religion DOES NOT get updated...unless you go against that religion's teachings.science is often the argument used against god.
yet science is constantly being updated
and proven to have previously been wrong.
religion is constantly being updated to fit the modern world.
we are told to have faith in science,
but there is zero evidence that the big bang happened.
the model breaks down.
the term big bang was actually coined as a mockery of the theory.
now the theory is taught in schools as fact,
just like the theory of god is taught in schools as a fact.
you need faith of one sort to believe in god.
you need faith of another sort to not believe in god.
i have faith in neither god nor science.
there's a word for not believing in god.
i wonder why there isn't a word for not believing in science.
What's the point in calling it "god" though...people have real definitions of what they believe a god to be. I could just call it 'bongo bongo' if that's the caseAgree, but you have free will to do so if you please.

Science isn't fixed ,it's the best explanations we currently have for things we can see, and theories are accepted as long as what we see fits that. as soon as the model doesn't work any more, or we find a new model that fits better we think again. The history of science is littered with discarded theories. Religion and faith in a god is very different.science is often the argument used against god.

it's best to never take anything i say too seriously, mate :)Science isn't fixed ,it's the best explanations we currently have for things we can see, and theories are accepted as long as what we see fits that. as soon as the model doesn't work any more, or we find a new model that fits better we think again.

there's no need to shout at me.Guess what corrects science? It's clearly NOT faith. In fact, it's the OPPOSITE of faith. Religion DOES NOT get updated...unless you go against that religion's teachings.
I'm whispering. And you're wrong. Nothing in the bible changes. You make no sense.regarding my statement that religion, just like science, gets updated...
(this is for everyone except shouter @Marklr )
the core of science remains the same,
but details of it change over time.
the core of religion remains the same,
but details of it change over time.
so there.
prove me wrong.
Certainly nothing changes with you. I sometimes think if the stars rearranged themselves into The Ten Commandments every Easter there would still be some wanting to argue the toss.I'm whispering. And you're wrong. Nothing in the bible changes. You make no sense.
Your comment makes no sense and doesn't relate to my point.Certainly nothing changes with you. I sometimes think if the stars rearranged themselves into The Ten Commandments every Easter there would still be some wanting to argue the toss.
Instead God seems to have decided we must all freely plot our moral path in this mortal coil without such certainties, which if present would make those choices simply prudential.
Why am I not surprised by that reply ?Your comment makes no sense and doesn't relate to my point.
Can you not just stick to the point? The bible does NOT change.Why am I not surprised by that reply ?
Which of the 3,000+ versions do you believe to be the correct one?Can you not just stick to the point? The bible does NOT change.
i make no sense?I'm whispering. And you're wrong. Nothing in the bible changes. You make no sense.
You never use capital letters...even when they're needed.i make no sense?
you reckon nothing in the bible changes?
are you on the wum?
what language was the bible first written in?
when the catholics translated it they changed loads of it to suit.
then the protestants changed it again so henry could get divorced.
the nutjobs in the usa changed it countless times.
the core remains the same but things were changed in all of them.
you can buy many versions of the bible that contain different shit.
and just to add,
you are not whispering.
i am whispering, i don't use capital letters.
you use capital letters.
capital letters were invented by the church to keep us in our place.
You can even buy a version which includes the US Constitution, The Declaration of Independence, and a piece of Trump’s suit.i make no sense?
