Will have to respond tomorrow. Wife has hinted that if I don't get my 'lazy ass' upstairs and in bed I may have to sleep on the sofa. For the next week. Hehe. Night.

239The Great Debate: "Has Science Refuted Religion?
by dark angle injust want to share this amazing debate!
caltech cosmologist and physicist sean carroll teams up with skeptic magazine publisher and science historian michael shermer in this epic debate with noted conservative author and king's college president dinesh d'souza and mit physicist ian hutchinson as they go head-to-head over one of the most controversial issues of our age.
as science pushes deeper into territory once the province of religion, with questions such as why there is something rather than nothing?, where did the universe come from?, how did life arise?, what was the origin of morality?, and others, inevitable conflicts arise over the best approach to answer them.

1 - Does your god still create life or was it a one off event - how do you know?
2 - Is your god responsible for creating all life everywhere - based upon what?
3 - Please define life. What does non life look like?
4 - Did your god also create all non- life?
Damn - most important question
5 - What would life that was not created by your god look like?

Whoa hold on Tec. One at a time. Let's start with creator. What did your god create specifically?

If I say science cannot disprove a greener green then hopefully you will see that the problem occurs not in the proof stage but in the initial premise stage. Without the definition you just have nonsense.
Just to aid my point. What is the next highest power to which this highest power is compared? What types of power are there?

Tec - I bet you I can. Define something about your creator god. For example.
'My creator god, unlike the maize god or Zeus, made animals from fire and ash. The evidence for this is that when animals are heated sufficiently they return to fire and ash.'
I suggest the problem you may find is in defining a characteristic of your god that is essential.

FHN - hang on . What do you mean that science cannot disprove the existence of a higher power? Can you explain what would disprove your god / faith / worldview? If you cannot then I hope you realise you have just totally disqualified your worldview. The strength of an idea rests upon its falsifiability and then the application of tests to see if it is still true. For example fossil proof of evolution would be ruined by modern day animal skeletons being found , non-intruded, in the earliest rock formations alongside the first fossils. Fossils would cease to be an evolutionary proof.
I gave both you and Tec a challenge earlier, define an aspect of your god that is a proof of your god and I will show a scientific or logical proof against it.

And I'm pointing out that you don't get to define it. Neither do I. When you want to define what constitutes a valid argument in the face of social consensus you get people thinking that an inner feeling is more powerful than billions of man hours of scientific research. My hate of faith as a blight upon mankind grows :(

Nope it's not FHN. That's the lie you tell yourself when you have nothing but your inner feelings to offer. Substance is testable, check able and verifiable and is the stuff of knowledge and gets people like me excited. I love to learn new stuff. People's woo stories, meh.

Type 'psr' in search field and run the psr.exe. It pops up the problem steps recorder. Click start and everything you do will get recorded with screen shots and instructions. After you click the stop button it will create a great little zip file. Very useful to show someone a problem you are having, to record something to show someone how to do stuff or just for your own records.
This is awesome.
