<I think Christ would consider him important enough to die on the cross for. >
Yes, ie. he'd see him the same as everyone else. Unlike you.
If I disagree with Dawkins that means I think his soul is different than others>?
< As for Dawkins importance, he's just one visible example. PZ Myers is another, Dennett, Pinker, Coyne, the NSCE group are others. >
Yes, examples of????????????? Examples of people who beleive differently than you do presumably.
Yes, but more importantly, who use the name of science to promote those beliefs and are allowed to do so.
<The atheists / materialists have the prestige and they and people like them are publicly recognized as being the spokesmen for "science">
Even if true (a constant disagreement between us... I working with scientists
I realize the people you work with may not be like those famous names.
and you seemingly drawn to the follow the antics of the few scientists of the world that flout the basic rules of science to comment on "spriritual matters")
I haven't heard any scientist but you say they're flouting the basic rules of science.
<<which has the aura and magesty to many that the "Church" once held.>>
Firstly the "Church" proved itself unworthy of the position it once held in society
I agree with that.
, and continues to do so daily. It elevated itself to 'godly' stature, even though it is simply a "human institution". Secondly, "the church" held a position MUCH HIGHER in peoples minds (and of course propogated that falsehood) than "science" ever did or ever will... MUCH higher.
Thirdly the "environment" of human life on earth during that time of maximum "church" influence was such that the "church" was by far the most powerful institution ever seen... more than any government or scientific institution.
Probably true as well.
Further "science" is NOT an institution (like the church was), there is no one forced to walk in lockstep by anyone, let alone (supposedly) "god".
Why was McWhorter compelled to disavow his interview with Behe within hours of its posting on the net? If that isn't reminiscent of Galileo being forced to recant, what is it?
Yes, I know. No one can threaten McWhorter physically. OTOH they don't need to.
since science isn't about god anyway... they'er working on their projects.
As they should. And I have no issue with such folks.
SCIENCE IS LIKE FREAKIN GOD compared to what society spews at our children.
Yes, but thats another issue not for this thread.
You really piss me off how small minded you can be. You're drawn to those people... god knows why, not many others are, they sell bupkiss as far as book volume goes and their audience combined over their entire careers is probably about a first round NFL playoff game. Get a grip.
Heh, if I bother you so much, you don't have to respond. Not that I'm asking you not to or to. Whatever you wish. |
