SUBconscious, not UNconscious

@palermo131 you're making an argument for deism not theism. the theistic god has been dreamed up during the bloody annals of human history like zeus or apollo. as for how everything began, the answers will come eventually and it will come from scientists studying the world around us not from the common man depositing a complex being to explain a complex universe. you claim to have the answers but I will consider these claims only when supported by proof and not by the ignorance about our origins

[palermo131]

@cappapagoooo Staying true to scientific method, all this matter and energy had a Cause. Science is a search for causes. Since we have never observed anything come to being on it's own accord, such assumptions bring us squarely back into the realm of faith. Staying within the bounds of the scientific method seems to point to a Creator as the most likely cause of everything. One may believe the universe came to being on its own, but that is not the conclusion most true to scientific process.

@palermo131 just a typo. both god and God are nonexisent like everything else there is no evidence for. If you want to claim there is a god all your work is still ahead of you

[palermo131]

@jjdelg Point taken, but the same could be said of historical and other claims in the Bible. Neither science or a religious world view are based totally on either faith or evidence: it is always a mixture of both. Besides, I really don't like framing the discussion that way. Science (not the community, mind you) is not exclusive from religious world views. I find it complimentary to it.

@cappapagoooo No, it's clear you don't know how to spell, even in the age of auto-correct, which is shameful in the extreme. "Immaginary" is not a word, "imaginary" is, and is a suitable description of your infantile fancies.

"god" is never a reference to the Supreme Being believed to have created everything. When you talk of a "god" you are talking of a far more limited being. It is a childish attempt by atheists to be disrespectful on the sly.

@palermo131 no i just tend to not capitalize immaginary things

[jjdelg]

@mikebeastdude i believe there is a God that created the Big Bang and created humans through evolution. Takes awhile to create a masterpiece. I like to think that God allows us to explore the world of science

[jjdelg]

@palermo131 yes, but religion is based totally off of faith. Science can be observed, tested, and proven in certain scenarios.

[palermo131]

@cappapagoooo The whole material plane is evidence for God, genius. It's God with a capital 'g', or can't you spell?

[palermo131]

@jjdelg Faith is required to adhere to some of the claims of "science" too.
