What exactly was the real purpose of this thread in the first place?
Another anti-intelligence thread. These pop up every once in a while.
The real anti-intellecuals are those who pretend to understand science, and even make that suggestion in their avis....
....get my drift, Lightweight?
Got it?
Hardly.
Einstein originally believed that the universe always existed until he accepted the explosive nature of the Big Bang cosmology.
Well heck, see, science was wrong. it can't be trusted.
Prior to the Big Bang, physicists were in a position to make God unnecessary, but once the nature of a beginning was accepted, it is hard to ignore the question of what was before same.
??? As scientists, physicists don't give a shit whether or not God existed. What they think of the issue on their own time is their business, but in my years as a graduate student in physics, the issue of God was never addressed.

He was.
As you are.
Your comment about physicists is true of some...but the provenance of this and an earlier thread is that there are those who insist on attacking the community of faith.
1. In 2007, physicist Steven Weinberg addressed the Beyond Belief: Science, Religion, Reason, and Survival conference. This Nobel Prize winner claimed Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion. He was warmly applauded.
2. Christopher Hitchens wrote God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything!
Well, then how do with reconcile science with abortion, fetal stem-cell research, euthanasia, infanticide, cloning, animal-human hybrids, among the other gifts of science, an ideology bereft of any sense of responsibility to human nature.
3. Sam Harris, in Letters to a Christian Nation, writes that qualms about stem-cell research are obscene, because they are morally indefensible because they represent mere faith-based irrationality. Can you say slippery-slope?
4. I'm sure you are familiar with Dawkins, Stengler, and others who have written books in the same vein.
Why the gratuitious attacks?

Keep posting!
You are describing 'science'. Theories, hypothesis and conjecture are constantly riddled with inquiries, experiments and duplicatable outcomes and results.Absolutely.
Not that it means that we should discard the pursuit of knowledge and understanding. But what I'm trying to get across is that just because somebody SAYS something has been "scientifically proven" doesn't mean it has, or that there isn't more to learn, or that it won't be disproven later down the road.

There is no settled theory. Only settled law.

You must have trouble understanding English. My first post clearly stated that Einstein was wrong. How you got that as a statement that he is infallible is beyond me. Perhaps you are really just stupid.

"Holy shit.
Einstein was wrong.
Got it."
That was your post.
Are you suggesting that this was not sarcastic?
Now, either you are inarticulate, or you are prevaricating.
Which is it?
You have become less civil: "Perhaps you are really just stupid."
A sure sign that you have lost the argument.

Let me suggest an answer: because these atheist scientists demand acquiescence to their views...and the majority of Americans have a very different view.
Funny, you are talking to us through a device made by those same atheists, enjoy your new knowledge!

Only an idiot...and I mean that in the kindest way....would suggest that all inventors and scientists are atheists.
Go ahead, raise your hand.

Where are all the idiots who jump all over these studies when they come out and immediately proclaim that we must all acknowledge the superiority of "science" over "common sense" or "faith".
"A University of Connecticut researcher who studied the link between aging and a substance found in red wine has committed more than 100 acts of data fabrication and falsification, the university said Wednesday, throwing much of his work into doubt.
Dipak K. Das, who directed the university's Cardiovascular Research Center, studied resveratrol, touted by a number of scientists and companies as a way to slow aging or remain healthy as people get older. Among his findings, according to a work promoted by the University of Connecticut in 2007, was that "the pulp of grapes is as heart-healthy as the skin, even though the antioxidant properties differ."
"We have a responsibility to correct the scientific record and inform peer researchers across the country," Philip Austin, the university's interim vice president for health affairs, said in a statement."

You confuse science with the media.
The worst science is more "real" than the best "magic" and "supernatural".
The worst science is more "real" than the best "magic" and "supernatural".
The best science reveals that you have the IQ of a gnat.
At least his assertion is backed by reality.

Quite the opposite.
Bad data is worse than no data. Believing falsehoods with passion leads to belief in idiotic religions like AGW.
