Nope. Not for disagreeing, but for believing in something that does not exist!

Science does not claim to have the truth, it flourishes is ignorance, that is the brilliance of it...

Enid · 14-10-2009, 02:42 PM

Science didn't have the technology nor means to determine what shape the world was.

Look how far it's come though. We live by it and science proves no god or higher entity exists. I have yet to be given solid proof that it does in fact exist. Instead I get all this jargon about the bible and a banana.

Why are so many people blindly following religion without question?

The definition of science is '[U] (knowledge from) the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical world, especially by watching, measuring and doing experiments, and the development of theories to describe the results of these activities'.

Science doesn't prove anything. If anything its events which defy science that either a) make a mockery of science or b) prove there could be something else.

You could ask that question about science, why are so many people blindly following it without question? It has been wrong in the past, it will almost certainly be wrong today or in the future.

I'm not arguing against it btw, just a counter balance argument against what you're saying. I keep an open mind.

But we are not really even talking about Creation here, it's just Religion. People don't blindly follow Science really, come on. Do you not believe in Evolution?
