Seems like an illogical hypothisis from a scientific standard.
I mean... look at how scientists approach things.
They see something they don't understand and ask a question.
"Why"
Then they come up with a hypothisis for why... and keep with that hypothisis believing in it and expiermenting with it until they prove or disprove it.
It's not a matter of "Do pink faeries exist." or "Does god exist"
It's a question of "Why does everything exist."
God is simply the hypothisis to that answer.
Just how something like Dark Energy was the hypothisis to why the universe is expanding, despite the fact there was no actual proof for such a thing. Or Ether... which was a hypothsis for... I forget what it was a hypothisis for now... something with why light travels "slower" in some areas?
Until
A) Another hyptohisis is proven.
or
B) Your hypothisis is disproven.
It's just as likely as any other outcome scientifically.

That is NOT science. Scientific theories must be disprovable. Since it is not possible to disprove God, God is not a valid scientific hypothesis. "The absence of a God" IS disprovable, for example if a God appeared.
Dark Matter / Dark Energy aren't good science either, since they aren't disprovable. An example of a sound theory is evolution: a single fossil in the wrong place or a single mechanism that couldn't eveolve gradually could disprove it - but no one has successfully found one.
And no, again you are confusing "no evidence either way" with "50% probablity". We can make judgements about fairies despite the fact we can't prove they don't exist - i.e. that it is unlikely they do.

Disagree. By it's very nature you can't disprove evolution, as you can't have a fossil in the wrong place, people will just say it evolved from something else, and there's a few links missing. Also, any mechanism could be evolved if you believed in improbability enough.
|
You can disprove evolution, though to do so you would have to prove something else probably.
|
Which is why I don't get why Atheists are so hung up on the idea that you can't believe in God because we don't know all the answers, yet believe evolution, even though the only why of disproving it scientifically would be to work out another why, it seems they are using a different school of thought to suit their arguements.
