"Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish."

"All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree."

 The words of your hero Albert Einstein you're clown do you hear me? When will you stop overANALysing this thing?

 You still didn't reply whether you govern in the way or not...

Toxic,
What about the morality that you parents taught you growing up?  Aren't your parents religious?  Do you do the opposite of the morals that they taught you?

Science:  The problem here is science is sometimes wrong because it draws conclusions on incomplete evidence.

Religion:  Is not Science, but instead faith.

whats with the flip mang!  i thought , you thunk all muslims are evil...hense they couldn't  possibly have taught me any good!

in anycase...yeah they are good people...but they r also muslims...i'm an atheist..for the most part i find no roux in their morality although i have enough of a brain not to follow their teaching blindly and to venture my own life when needed (hence atheism)

(taking into account you are probably not talking about "organized religion"  but belief/faith and not just some denomination etc)

Many people observe nature and believe it's too complicated to have just "happened" w/o a designer.  

People aren't born w/a drawn conclusion.


Also, to me, "draw conclusion" implies some type of investigation, deliberation or deduction prior to arriving at a conclusion in the first place.

ok again way to side step the question

basically anything that helps you survive is morally right in your book?

stealing, murder, rape etc...as long as it helps you and your bloodline survive its morally right in your book?

i get my sense of morality from my ability to grasp simple truths about the society we live in. Its sets of social mores coupled that with my genetic predisposition towards logical thought...

LOL first off are you so blind with hatred that you dont understand that the "friggin book" you despise is based on the same thing that you just put forth?

while it may come from a book try to look further, passed your idiotic hatred and see it through an unbiased lens.

Secondly you state the "society we live in" is this to mean that your sense of morals is not universal but simply right or wrong within the context of our society?

explain how your morals are any different than the morals derived from the bible?

i never said they were different...i merely stated that they are differently derived...

better question yet...WHY do you care so much if i state that my morals are not plagarized from a book but instead a funcion of my own personality which in turn is a function of my genetic disposition?
Title: Re: The difference between science and religion!

your hatred blinds you or perhaps your just not as smart as I give you credit for...

by your reasoning murder could be morally right, theft and rape as well could be morally right...

how do you not understand this?

Let me break it down for you...

If as you state that your morals come from your own personality and a function of you genetic disposition. Then a person who is predisposed to be violent could and with a personality that allows for violence to occur would be acting morally right...

What is the difference between SCIENCE AND RELIGION???????????????????

How Relevant is the meaning of what scientology and how important is scientology in everyday ecology and how do you become not so illiterate about the understanding of why scientology has become a much more mainstream part of holy theology??????????????????????

I had to ask because the way life is depending on your level of livelihood, one thing I realized during this eleven to twelve month seasonal calendar cycle is that this late exactly up to date final Sunday in November is probably so much of a "here today gone tomorrow" sunrise and sunset that this year that time says is 2009 is without a doubt one of the most SHORT LIVED years that the day to day pace of the end of the third month of the fall since September started and went into October and now November feels like the environment of everyday ecology is biologically too fast from tomorrow into tomorrow.

If religion is NOT a scientific theory that deals with topics that cannot be dealt with in science, then why is the combination of technology and theology treated like they are both related to each other and the number of "name recognized stars" who are "celebs" publicly acknowledge their belief in scientology.

Basically because of how strong the church and state faith of king george mr.W bush, then why didn't anyone influential say or suggest to the number of people in the population who are soft and unselfish that live with old school values or principles should try and pretend to be atheists when the heavy hype of the holy spirit was sweeping across america like a decisive 4 game sweep during a playoff series that a pro team loses.

Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values.

The two are not rivals. They are complementary.

Science keeps religion from sinking into the valley of crippling irrationalism and paralyzing obscurantism. Religion prevents science from falling into the marsh of obsolete materialism and moral nihilism."

I dont necessarily agree with the 1st part not that I think its wrong simply maybe I look at it in a different light.

The bolded parts I agree with completely

science does keep religion in check with its irrationality and religion does keep science from falling off a cliff...

I.E. evolution and religion and the fact that non believers even hold beliefs they would call morals...

i agree with you 100%...science does interpret, but religion in its purest form is ment to give wisdom/control but it turns people into fanatics which has through out history proven deadly. But like yous said it depends what lens you are lookin through.

First of all, scientology is retarded. You cannot come to a different conclusion after watching Tom Cruise's video.

Many people believe that spiritual scripture can also be read as scientific scripture. I would call those people fundamentalists. On the other hand, many people think that science is the only body of thought there is. I would call those people scientific positivists. Both groups are wrong.

I don't agree. Science does in fact not deal with facts at all. It only deals with facts within scientific models, not at all with facts of reality. Only philosophy (also theology, although the topics are different) has the tools to deal with reality.

I disagree with this but I think its b/c of the definition of "facts" and "reality" that we are using.

While I agree with what youre saying about the facts within the scientific model I disagree with the idea they are not facts in reality. Facts are facts plain and simple but its how we as ppl apply those facts that sometimes do not fit within reality.

as an example:
Is it a scientific fact that evolution exists? yes

but ppl try to use those facts to disprove religion this is where to me anyways you get the blur from facts to reality.

Yes, as long as we talk about "scientific facts" I agree. What I meant is that those facts only relate to the scientific aspects of reality.

Somewhat beside the point but to be exact, science does also not produce scientific facts. Scientifically speaking, you could only say "the currently accepted scientific theory about the biological aspects of life is evolution theory". Saying that "evolution is a fact" is highly unscientific because if a new scientific theory came along, which disproves evolution, evoultion theory would have to be abandoned.

I agree with the bold

my point is more that evolution is a fact scientific and reality wise, organisms do change overtime through enviroments, biological pressure, societal pressure etc. etc. etc...

but its how it is applied now are we positive that certain extinct species where related or split from others no that is what you would call scientific theory alot of evidence points to this but as far as being 100% sure no we are not.

Post by: OneBigMan on December 03, 2009, 02:15:13 PM
The difference between science and religion is a very thought provoking conversation. Just count and add up all the replies to the first post.

The difference to me seems to be a re-invention of how spiritually strong the church and state faith of evangelical people has turned into a equation that is the formula for scientific theory that explains everyday ecology. That's why the way evolution was described caught my attention before I began typing any of this. To make a long story short, when you try to take evolution and add a scientific theory or the scientific reality that is virtually impossible to ignore, all you can do is take different beliefs and reasonable facts and draw your own personal perspective.

My opinion is that you should use what "cause and effect" is supposed to stand for and take a look at technology through different parts of history to find your personal interpretation of what theology is and why certain fringe groups have for example what people within the scientology community claim to be their interpretation of what reality is to them.

I already see that the last reply to this topic was five days ago on the 7th of this month. I wanted to try and continue and discuss the difference between science and religion. There may not be much else to add besides a observation about this year called 2009.

The one example about the year 2009 that might have a connection to science and religion is symbolicly how so many seemingly short-lived seasonal periods into the fall during 2009 was used to make and release one movie that is either about this year as 2009 in some incomplete way or how three later years from this calendar year there is actually a film in the theaters for the last three or more weekends since November that is named after the year that seemingly is a number of years ahead of 2009 which obviously is the the film named after the year 2012.

Besides the fact that I have not seen this film simply called 2012, the release of the 2012 movie this year during 2009 is hard to completely digest in a number of puzzling ways.  The most puzzling way that might have to do with science and religion is what do the makers of that 2012 movie know about 2012 besides the December date about 2012 that still is three different years beyond 2009 and so much of a Nostradamus type of unproven prophecy that is a ploy to create a reaction on the level of alarm and too much concern.

you're the guy that once told me I shouldn't bother watching a show National Geographic did on the Moon Landing Conspiracy.  Who are you and what have you done with Toxic? :D


it'll be bulshit and not worth watching..they will pretend to analyse both sides seriously..only to shoot down the conspiracy firmly at the end

..the show will end with a..hey we looked at both sides fairly  and the conspiracy theorists are wrong feel to it

well I think you're on the right track.  Before you seemed willing to buy into whatever video someone put together as the end of the story, gospel truth.  Listening to the skeptics is good.  Listening to both sides is good.  But beware, skeptics can be just as bad.  I've picked up Skeptic a few times and the only problem I have with them is that they don't believe anything has ever happened of a conspiratorial nature or ever will.  They sell their magazines to debunk CT's and they're willing to debunk them all.  They do not enter the debate with an open mind..  So don't read them as gospel either.  The guy that runs Skeptic also does a lot of TV appearances and he's one of those guys that like to show up with laughter and mockery in hand which I've always hated in a skeptic.  If they have the proof to debunk the theory, they shouldn't need to show up with mockery in their debate box.  That's only used to gain an immediate undeserved upperhand with the viewer, like they start out on a higher moral ground than the theorist.  unfortunately this tool is a favorite among skeptics.

I would rather not read Skeptic magazine so symbolicly, the way the cover of that very late post 2008 up to date issue of Skeptic magazine was illustrated to look, I would say that there is too much emphasis being placed on the year 2012 being the name of a 2009 movie three years ahead of this one.

What is it about 2009 that already has a movie called 2012 in a hypothetical fictional look into three next years that have been too anticipated when this year is still here despite the feeling that such a short lived amount of fall months in this holiday season of 2009?

Can Any Scientologist explain that or can the difference between science and religion be used to explain that or does the two words leap year have a second definition that causes a lot of reinterpretation from what is said to be a leap year on the added 29th of February four years apart. The extra meaning of a leap year might have more importance outside the recognition of the Gregorian calendar from what a February leap year has been along with the fact that 2012 is supposed to be another Gregorian calendar leap year despite the fact or fiction that the Mayan calendar, not the Gregorian calendar, is believed to be the reason why 2012 is being explained to be the Nostradamus type of unproven prophecy by any of the experts that make their living off of trying to be like Nostradamus.

When you're thirsty and it seems that you could drink the entire ocean that's faith; when you start to drink and finish only a glass or two that's science.
Toxic what a stupid guy you are

I think that science and religion go hand in hand and are truely compatible with each other.
