Sorry, couldn't resist

Hehe, I have to rewatch the 3 and 4 seasons. Best ones out of the lot.

Wait, what just happened to the thread?

[Shrike]

Have fun.

the middle one is just a political message, although a dumb one

the first and third are the problem - they're encouraging an atmosphere of supression of the first ammendment

How on earth does the third one SUPRESS the first ammendment. That suggestion in itself is completely hypocritical.

[Deepblue]

Woah. Combinage.

[Flipside]

Ok, what needs to be borne in mind is that, if you trace the roots of science far enough back that you get to the questions that started it all, How, Why etc...

From these exact same questions stemmed religion, simply different answers were found, the rightness of those opinions, as such, is neither here nor there, but Science and Religion are both children of the same Human curiosity.

Edit : Great. now I have to cope with a thread that bounces all over the place and tends to censor words like 'Funny' and 'Bold'.

ROTFL you need an education

you supress the first ammendment by making an environmental hostile to the expression of it

[Deepblue]

For some reason people have this strange notion that science and religion can't coexist. That belief is flawed in its self.

[Thrilla]

I see they finally are just making 1 thread for all this.  Good Idea.

[Shrike]

Yes, as threads pop up they'll get tossed in here.

That is an expression of the first ammendment. And you certainly don't need to result to insults in order to satisfy your ego.

Double standards suck.

(I'm sure you wouldn't complain if it was a minority group message)

Religion has nothing to do with science!

STUPIDITY is the antithesis of science. A smart religious person does not pretend that his spirituality can tell him how the world works.

NO IT ISN'T!!!

Religion is a belief system. Science is proof of existence.

I think we just found the root of your problem.

Thank you.

religion is believing that something is factual without evidence for it

that's the antithesis of science

[Flipside]

The thing is about science is this....

It contains a collection of laws and rules that say that just about everything interacts and affects everything else, from the Sub-atomic to the Pan-Galactic. When you step back and look at science from a distance, instead of playing the theological version of conkers with the Church, it's about as close to a religious experience that I've come to outside of a bedroom......

[Ford Prefect]

But the question that religion addresses is unprovable. Therefore, it is not defying what science tells us is true.

No, thats faith. However, religion does not always rely ENTIRELY on faith.

They can still coexist perfectly as long as you have an open mind.
