<Scientism leads directly to Nihilist conclusions about life's most important questions.>

"Don't be ridiculous. They are totally different things!"

I've already demonstrated that they are in fact directly related to one another.

Unlike the use of the scientific method as only one mode of reaching knowledge, scientism claims that science alone can render truth about the world and reality. ... In essence, scientism sees science as the absolute and only justifiable access to the truth. pbs.org

<Your Procrustean, materialist idea of what constitutes knowledge shows how limited your thinking is.>

"My rational distaste for superstition and the holding of absurd infantile myths by grown men and women is not the topic of this thread nor any other."

And yet you continue your crusade to derail any rational discussion on this thread by posting off topic, ad hominem statements like the above.

I'll ask you politely to stop posting these inflammatory ad hominem statements on this thread.

The express and only purpose of your now defunct "Should God Be Replaced?" thread was to provide yourself an outlet for just that kind of bigotry. It's still there: so why don't you post your off topic opinions on your own thread?
