There have been a few times i've had someone ask me , "how do you know God is real?"
My answer is always the same , I tell them to come hunting with me one morning and watch the world wake up , then ask me the same question , lol.
That's my answer when i'm asked that question , but thet can never answer me when I ask them how they dont believe in God.

Im with you ferg!!


Boy, that's a swell attitude. If Newton, Einstein, Pasteur, Copernicus, Darwin, Da Vinci and a few other individuals had followed that philosophy, we might still be living in the Dark Ages.

It is shortsighted and possibly a bit self indulgent to think that the motivating factor behind science is to disprove the notion of God. I would think to the contrary: the more you understand about the universe and its inner workings, the more you understand about God. At the very least, it is of no more threat to religion than understanding that the Earth is not the center of the universe, how gravity works, the practice of Alchemy, advanced technology, mico biology, biology in general, understanding bacteria, medical treatment, nano technology, etc (the list goes on), all of which benefit every member of this forum in direct and indirect manners without suffering the loss of a single ounce of faith.

The term the "God Particle" is not even a scientific name. That's just what the press calls it because it is more explanatory than the "Higgs Boson." This is a (missing link) cornerstone of physics that Eisenstein was onto. It is a big deal.


I agree, but during the times of those great scientist they didnt have the liberal media twisting it either. "God Particle" is a slap in the face IMO.

Quick boys get a gun and shoot your tv, take a hammer to that iPhone, and somebody get me a match we need to burn these newspapers. The liberal media is out to twist our minds and eat our children.

My only question is if I take a member of the liberal media, tie him up, and throw him in the water. Will he float? If he does, you know what that means? They're witches! ;\)

All joking aside, in response to Poser's point, we need science. I think what all too often what we miss out on is the connection between knowing something, knowing why it's important, and how to make it beneficial.

Regardless of what you believe, it's important that everyone realize that we are a small part of something much bigger than ourselves. This fact eludes many whose faith is in God or whose faith is in science or anything else.

Also, regardless of your beliefs, there's always a chance that you might be wrong.

And Poser, Pasteur? The germ theory. C'mon man! You can come up with a better example than that of good science. Or maybe good science that hasn't been taken too far. Pasteur is more of Redblood's kind of science. Pasteur is not for the rare meat crowd, like you and I.

God and science are not mutually exclusive, even if religion thinks they are. If our ancestors had adopted this mentality centuries ago, we wouldn't have the lives we have. Having an understanding of our universe, our planet, our bodies, our environment, etc. doesn't have to fly in the face of religion.

I have no issue with science - my only point was, at some point, when God has had enough, He'll put a stop to it.

And for the record it should 'god particle' (small 'g' in by book)

Why would God get tired of it and put a stop to it?

Science and religion don't have to be at odds with each other. The simplest explanation that works for either side IMO is that God made everything the way he did to challenge us. He created a big puzzle that we are trying to figure out. Who knows, if or when we figure it all out, our "prize" may be eternal euphoric life with God. Heaven.
