God is not perfect?
God is not?
God is?
Lola, what difference does it make what the Bible says? What makes you think the Bible is a reliable source of information?

I wasn't aware they'd made such great strides in the study of abiogenesis. Interesting.
Just out of curiosity, what do you know about abiogenesis? It's very easy to say what you say (which gives a certain impression) and know next to nothing about it. I could say;
"I wasn't aware they'd made such great strides in snowboarding. Interesting."
However, my ability to foretell future advances in snow boarding is severely hampered by knowing next to nothing about it.
Is your sarcasm justifiable or deceptive.
And what do you know about abiogodesis? Unless you can come up with a conclusive theory of abiogodesis, the lack of a conclusive theory regarding abiogenesis is irrelevant, as you have no pot to piss in either.
How can a particle be both neutral and massless and still be a particle, when mass is a requisite for definition as a particle?
Well, experts in the field certainly aren't bothered by calling a gluon a particle, so in common usage your question is meaningless even IF the dictionary definition precludes masslessness.
Going small or large, we reach a point where we just have to face the fact that we don't know
Yup. Some seem drawn to conjecturing in favour of 'god' when they reach this point. Others seems drawn to conjecturing against the existence of 'god' when they reach that point.
Given that 'god' is not required at any point in science until we reach the point where we don't know (if then), introducing the idea at such a late stage in the process of knowledge seems rather ad hoc. Most progresses in scientific knowledge have consisted in pushing back the 'god' frontier, the 'we don't know' frontier back and discovering yet more knowledge we didn't posses previously and a remarkable lack of god, e.g. evolutionary theory.
What makes you think the 'we don't know' barriers we currently face are atypical? Why are we going to find god lurking in amongst the gluons or hiding behind abiogenesis this time?
I don't believe science ever can prove the existence of God since it starts by precluding the possibility of life that exists outside of physical reality.
The ultimate in apologism; setting yourself up for long tern failure...!
What, you mean like scientists won't ever be able to prove the existence of fairies since it starts by excluding stuff that there is no physical proof of?
Why does lack of physical proof make you immediately assume there is a good reason for this (other than something not existing, LOL). Isn't it like a kid coming up with an ad hoc reason why there's no proof of fairies - for example, grown-ups can't see them.
In physics, is a "force" physical or spiritual,
In PHYSICs a force is PHYSICal; see Merriam Webster; 1 a : having material existence : perceptible especially through the senses and subject to the laws of nature physical
is measurable by weight, motion, and resistance -- Thomas De Quincey> b : of or relating to material things 2 a : of or relating to natural science b (1) : of or relating to physics (2) : characterised or produced by the forces and operations of physics.
Semantics will not prove god exists, people have tried this before.
