"you failed to notice that the questions were accompanied by answers"

Sorry. You are wrong again.

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

Don't be ridiculous. They are totally different things! In acordance with your particular concerns, you are apparently confessing that a reliance on science destroys the credibility of all the things unknown to science. That is just silly! Science does not deal with questions of philosophy. The fact that Science is incompatible with mythological tales pretending irrational events as Truth does not have anything to do with the philosophy of Nihilism.

Take a continuing education course..

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

Good to see you learning and practicing new words. Now learn honesty, fairness, and decency!

"you are deathly afraid of allowing God a toe hold on your life."

I am really not interested in your childish personalization of every discussion. I would like to discuss issues. 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.

I think your god is an imaginary spaghetti monster. Let me say it once since you brought it up, as is your wont:

I am NOT afraid of your idiot imaginary friend. Now move on to the issues--PLEASE!

That "scientific nihilism" is feeding the world right now , remember how you deduced theres no food shortage ? Also powering the world while cultivating the proper perspective in protecting endangered species & conserving the envirionment with proper management of resources while people of only a hundred years ago worried & fretted over their "endangered souls" & that abject nihilism of eternal damnation .

These cut n paste jobs especially the last two reintroducing the world's greatest nihilist Lane Craig who has some morbid fixation with "no thing" just demonstrates again his complete uslessness debating instances of the early universe for which man has absolutely no determined answers what so ever. Or Jack Lewis who spent most all of his time living inside a protected academic placenta rarely venturing forth into the real world at large.
