Has history not proven that the contrary is possible. There existed a man who was religious, and who put his faith in the scientific method. I challenge you to disprove that. @Runa. If you were truly a man of science, you would come to understand that there is a possibilities that one of these fairy tales may be true, and you will never live to see the day where that is proven to be false. You may say it is unlikely, but you will never see the day where it is proven false. As I have shown to dsgrue, one simply cannot stand and claim that the absence of evidence is proof for inexistence.
I admire your commitment to science, but let that not be a path for you to look down on others who may have had the misfortune of looking at the metaphysical, and thinking "what if it was true". |
The scientific method does not require faith; that is a failing to understand it as it is a logical method of determining something. As it is based on logic, it is inherently true and therefore faith is not a requirement. You do not need faith to know that 1 + 1 = 2.
The issue with religion is that it is based on believing something without proof. That goes against the scientific method.
