Science doesn't 'create' anything new (meaning any advance in science follows already established laws of nature that man had nothing to do with).
Put it this way....man didn't 'create' a horse, man just saw a horse one day and gave it a name. Same with anything....we just pretty much 'reverse engineer' things. We don't create the laws of nature, we just explain them in our own terms. There's nothing to say any God did or didn't create all of it.
If the bible had been handed down in exact, scientific terms then who would've understood it? How would it have been carried on? The way it's written is in such a way that people of all times, all ages, and educations can grasp the fundamentals. The point of the bible isn't to explain how everything works, not at all.
There's absolutely no reason why science and religion can't 'go' together. It's a problem that people on both sides of the issue can't see that!
Did you read anything anyone said to you? There's several helpful responses. Doesn't seem like you're really reading and understanding the replies.
I'm not even religious myself, I was just trying to help you, and you assumed I'm religious and called me an idiot?
Listen, you can read the bible and get your own perspective on it, you don't have to accept what 'some' Christians think it all means. You can also be a Christian and NOT go to church. You don't have to associate with any Christians that you feel are 'idiots'. Whatever.
Maybe if you studied the bible a bit more and got a good grasp on it and then made a decision as to how you feel about it, that might be better. I can't help but get the impression that you're more turned off by some religious PEOPLE and not so much Christianity itself. Which is normal.
lol @ you pretending not to be Christian while your post reads like a prayer to your imaginary dickless god with a son as himself.
if it quacks like a Christian, lies like a Christian, goes emo like a Christian, it's not an atheist, ya feels me bro?
only someone with low IQ, who's illiterate/unread would ever dare to imply that the Bible and Science are compatible and two equivalent answers.
this is like equating alchemy to chemistry, witch-doctors to modern medicine, ESP to radar, etc.
you Christians need to stop dressing up your superstitions as the same thing as science when one is basically the rantings of madmen, while the other is a methodology that has lead to modern civilization.
He won't listen to reason, best you give now, there's no hope arguing with him.
Oleo has an intense need to feel self-important and be "right", and this wouldn't necessarily be a problem if he didn't hate himself so much. Unfortunately, he does, and as such you're essentially arguing against his right to be okay with who he is as a person. That's a losing battle.
haha its you-my comments must have hurt you deeply enough that you're following me around now trying to 'get revenge' or something.
Fwiw Kate you shouldn't take anything I say too personally, it's the internet and people say things to get a rise out of others. If my comments did hurt you I apologize.
We might be adversaries on certain views but I wouldn't want anyone to actually be affected by something I've said here in a negative way.
Now on this topic, I only have so much patience for religion-in the past I used to post well-considered/constructed arguments...now I'd just rather point and laugh at theists who are slaves to dark ages thinking.
Some slaves wish not to be be freed and prefer the shackles they have grown accustomed too. I prefer to rattle their chains and remind them of their own misery.
is it normal for physicists to attend church?

because religion dares to make scientific claims and loses against science every time.
now if the christians ever really understood science, they'd understand why the lost and feel pretty stupid after
but the fact that you idiots keep trying to push your Magical-Creation theory means you didn't learn anything.

so many silly assumptions by you. I've read your Bible and it's a joke.
you realize it wasn't sent by god but compiled by the Council of Nicea who threw out the junk that sounded too crazy?
are you even aware the bible is full of contradictions, calls for genocide, condones slavery, stoning and honor killing?
your 'holy book' is no better than the Quran-except unlike muslims at least Christians don't practice their barbaric beliefs in reality.
go watch some videos on science and de-toxify your brain of the religious hogwash that it's full of.

Again, did you read ANYTHING I wrote? I'm not religious, fool. Repeat, I'm NOT religious.
What the hell is your malfunction?
Why did you even ask this question? YOU are full of contradictions.
You need to go watch some Hooked on Phonics videos to improve your reading comprehension.
Now, go piss up a rope ass face.
