I Think I See Whats Happening

More like the more education one receives the higher the chance one will become and atheist.

And again, AlphaNumeric did not say that those theories were turning people into atheists

LOL. Yeah, more echoes of DB.

Try the other threads in this forum where I have posted like here.

Do I need to flag my posts in some special way so you no longer ignore them?

Relativity and Quantum mechanics are turning people into atheists, eh?

So tell me, what does porn do to us?

HEE HEE HEE HAA HAA HAA snorgle*** snort***

That was a good one, even if I may say so myself...

(Guess I just did)

Snort.

Pppfffttt. Bring-of-Light... What is that smell? sniff... sniff*** is that ganja? Are you smoking something dude? whoa dude, whatever it is....

Put it out, it is waaaaaaaaayyyyy too much for anyone here.

mm

Relativity and Quantum Mechanics are on the pedestal of being quantitative physical theories that have made predictions which were subsequently confirmed by experiments. I think Alphanumeric was suggesting a correlation between people knowing/understanding relativity and QM and being atheist. Not that it turns people atheist, or that all people who know both of these theories are atheist (I personally know many physicists who have a better understanding of both than I and are religious). But there seems to be a trend that the better you are at science, the less likely you are to believe in god.

And this does not mean it is becoming their religion, it just means that they have gained knowledge that leads them to believe that god doesn't exist. You are looking into this to much and trying to find things that aren't there.

I hope you don't consider that as scientific evidence... If so, then the American education system is in worse trouble than I thought.

1. What theory claims that NOTHING can be created or destroyed?
2. Could you communicate before you were born? No? Then what makes you think it will continue after you die?
3. A near death experience is like knocking on a door, and then thinking you know what's on the other side.
4. Spirits, never met or seen one myself.

1. The law of conservation of mass

2. Sure babies are conscious in the womb.

3. Some people have glimpsed the other side and then been able to speak of what they saw.

4. Having never seen a spirit yourself you assume that they can't exist?

Steveo - anout relativity and quantum mechanics: If I told you that I loved coke and drank it every day until I discovered Pepsi and then I turned my back on coke; wouldn't you take that to mean that I replaced coke with pepsi? That's how I understood what AlphaNumeric said.

Then you are not understanding what he stated. That has been pointed out to you twice now.

1. Conservation of mass? Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. We return to the Earth from which we came. No promise of an afterlife there.

2. I'll give you that one. (I worded the question poorly.) But since you claim that NOTHING can be created, then your eternal soul ™ must have always existed. Remember anything prior to your conception?

3. Oh, they cracked open the door and saw a light... very impressive - NOT. Of course if you'd like to perform the experiment and come back with the info, I'd be willing to listen to you.

4. I used to think that spirits may exist, but after 50 years of NO (or fabricated) evidence for them... I've come to the conclusion that they don't. Once again, if you've got any concrete evidence I am open to the possibility.

What if I told you I loved coke. But it rotted my teeth, kept me awake at night, aggravated my gout, increased my weight, increased my chance of getting Diabetes, and my Doctor suggested I stop drinking it?
Would you assume I switched to Pepsi?

Saying religion does not have proof of something is not saying that science does.
Good scientists can accept "we can't know" as an answer.

There are thousands of scientists who are religious. If one believes in Relativity and Christ simultaneously, does one have two religions? No. Science is not a religion. Please abandon the false notion that religion and science are mutually exclusive.

Wow...dumber than a brick.

Next, you can explain how anarchists actually believe in a form of government.

There is a 'religion', or at least a philosophy based on "science". It is known as naturalism. Several people might consider themselves naturalists. However, it doesn't change the fact that atheism only believes in one thing: that there is no god or supreme being

Now, what do you care about relativity or quantum mechanics?
You don't understand physics.
You don't really seem interested in learning anything.
You assume that people "believe" in these things, which is ridiculous.

Science may be responsible for creating a lot of atheists, but that doesn't mean that science replaced atheism. Skeptics might prove that the Loch Ness monster is fake, but that doesn't mean that your belief in the Loch Ness monster is replaced with a strong belief in skepticism.

Religion is a philosophy.
Philosophy is not a religion.

Please people, get it straight.

Bringer-of-Light,

I thought you said you would address my questions?

Why have you not addressed this one?

Why are you so quick to defend realtivity and quantum mechanics? All that's clear is that relativity and quantum mechanics leads to atheism. It may not serve as a replacement for God but knowledge of such things must be in opposition to God. Such filth is exactly why I am going to homeschool my son.

Narrow mindedness, blindness, and ignorance lead to fundamental christianity.

Be sure you teach him how to say, "Would you like fries with that?"
