Yup. But you still can't physically see, hear, feel, etc. it, so you have faith it exists. It really makes no difference what you use as an example, I'm just trying to demonstrate faith.

You can feel love. But OK, I know you mean touch. But you can't touch, hear, taste, smell or see sadness either. Or happiness, anger, etc. But you know you feel them because they have a real effect on you.

There is nothing to do with faith there.

Exactly my point! Thanks...

You don't feel it because you don't believe, but I feel God, and he has a real effect on my life.

Whether they have anything to do with faith or not, at least you get the idea of what I'm talking about.

Some of you may know I don't believe in God, if not..now you do.
Wait, that's not quite right... God is Science...Science is God.
God is everywhere, and in everything. Duh...it is Science that is god. How can someone not believe in Science?

And religion is the root of all man's evil...the cause of all wars. Only purpose is to segregate populations, and keep the power among a small group of the population.

Besides, from what I've learned about god and the Xian religion, god won't care what I believed in, or even if I was blasphemous. He will care if I was a good person or not. He won't care if I accept Jesus (that sounds just a bit gay to me) on my death bed or not.
I live my life doing what I feel is the right thing. I don't need some book written thousands of years ago to tell me what's right. Especially some book that throughout history was controlled by the rich elite, which would benefit from control of the other 95% of the population.

I dont believe in science. I believe in scientific principles, but not the junk science being spewed out all over the place. Global warming - some say yes and others say no. Is the universe expanding indefinately - some say yes others say no. How did life begin? How does evelolution really work? (nobody has ever actually seen a new species develop from another) There are many other examples. The use of science is the current method of scaring people into doing what a few selective wackos want (see global warming).

Todays science is done by first knowing the result you want and then coming up with the specific data you need to support it. I claim we will get over 1800 inches of rain this year. We got 5 inches today so 5X365 is > 1800. Junk junk junk.

You're right about that. Which is my point. Its accepted as a fact although its never been proven. Which is the major part of Junk Science.

Oh...Now I think I understand.

Junk Science is promoted/taught as being true Science when in reality it is based on some science (if any), and some political or economic agenda, but this is all packaged as "True Science".

The science books are written by man, and the readers believe it as a fact, when they should think more for themselves...?

Sound like any other book we know?

That last amusing post made me think. I reckon that the bible was like a primative science book. But while todays science is based on what we can observe, the bible was based on mans simple explainations. Plus some population control teachings thrown in for good measure.
