What does that have to do with the fact that Xianity has nothing to do with Science?

[goldstead]

Excuse me but what has any religion got to do with science, reality, logic or reason?

Hopefully inside the next say 200 years, A L L religions will be consigned to the FICTION / MYTHOLOGY section of the library. No intelligent person believes in angels, miracles or an eternal afterlife with an imaginary magic-boss in the sky.

@ZoneTelevision Agreed.

@Atheistjeremy ...yeah let me ask you a question ...hows all that "science" workin for yah when people still kill, maim, collude, steal, lie, cheat etc.... yah think your "science" is going to save you from any of that ? Here's an (F) for FAILING the intelligence test .. because all this "science" you worship.. computers,cars, and yes doctors (self appointed gods), are returning to dust just like the both of us. No I won't stop driving a car because its a practical use of a limited idea.

@Atheistjeremy The so called "science" you rely on hasn't solved our moral problems which in turn hasn't solved our nations debt problems and the all the pestilence you see in the world increasing exponentially Why? because God has been literally removed from the equation. To people like you God is of little use ..was to the Romans too and Babylonians too and the Egyptians yet with all their brilliant technological wonders they couldn't save themselves from their moral filth ..

@Atheistjeremy Dumbest you say ? I'm sure you'll find something else to find fault with .. you're batting 1000 so far. Incidentally .. if the physical "sciences" are so wonderful why do 47,000 - 200,000 die from preventable deaths in American Hospitals every year (According the the AMA and other institutional studies)...

[Atheistjeremy]

@ZoneTelevision That has to be the dumbest comment I've read in a long time. If your statement is true, stop driving your car or going to the doctor. Get off your computer.

[ZoneTelevision]

@goldstead Well lets see, you have social science's, science of biology, science of chemistry, science astronomy etc etc. (physical sciences) so why not a Science of God i.e Christian Science ?

Science: "branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws"

There are laws of God (ignored by most men/women) that when applied properly yield results that supersede physical laws.

[ZoneTelevision]

@Atheistjeremy Perhaps its because "Real" Science has nothing to do with what is actually true.

[SeeProfileForDetails]

@Atheistjeremy "Christian Science teaches that the "allness" of God denies the reality of sin, sickness, death, and the material world. Accounts of healing through prayer are common within the church and adherents traditionally refuse medical treatment. "

Does anyone even read the Christian Science Monitor ? I never even hear it quoted from media that tends to quote from papers. I think you guys are going out of business due to lack of interest and are blaming it on the transition to online media. You did not transition ... you got left behind.

“Christian Science denies prayer: ‘The mere habit of pleading with the divine Mind, as one pleads with a human being, perpetuates the belief in God as humanly circumscribed - an error which impedes spiritual growth.’ Compare 1 Chron 16:11; Matt 7:7, 26:41; Luke 18:1; John 16:24; Phil 4:6; 1 Thess 5:17, all of which tell us to pray always about everything. God wants us to communicate with Him.”
