Dbaiba Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Both of your posts have amounted to nothing but linkspam for the book, so the first one is gone (at least temporarily). This one had the tiniest bit of on-topic material in it, so I just snipped the link. How can you say such a thing without even taking a close look at my provided link ? because if you did , you wouldn't have said what you just did Both my posts were to the point though ,because atheists like Dawkins always present science and evolution as the major "arguments " against religion ,while the scientific method itself and the discovery of evolution were the products of religious scientists ...ironically enough What are you afraid of ,just let my topic in question be the subject of open-minded serious debates and let the people decide for themselves what to think of it Come on , i thought this site was an open-minded one I hope i was not wrong Bye Edited June 14, 2013 by Dbaiba
ydoaPs Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 The abscence of evidence is not the evidence of abscenceMathematically speaking, you're dead wrong. Absence of evidence is evidence of absence. However, it is not definitive proof (in most cases) of absence and the amount of credence it gives to the negation of the claim lacking evidence is dependent upon how much evidence one should expect. maybe, then again maybe the version you saw was edited...Which is quite possible. One 'side' loves to edit the living bujeebus out of things. For example, I've been told that the official version of my Q&A with Craig was mutilated. 1
MonDie Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 You cannot disprove the tiger John Cuthber mentioned, never.It does not mean that that lack of evidence is the evidence of abscence of the tiger.You're right. Maybe the tiger is invisible. Maybe the tiger is super stealthy so as to be inaudible. Maybe the tiger immaterializes when you walk through it... Maybe there wasn't any tiger in the first place. God is unlike anything or anyone God had ever created or will ever create : meaning that God is beyond reason, let alone empirics. If God is beyond reason, how can you contemplate what God is? If you can't, how do you set forth criteria that outline what God is? If you can't, what does the word "God" even mean? If the word "God" doesn't mean anything, how can you claim that God exists, created man, wrote the Bible, etc.? 2
pwagen Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Islam can simply not be imposed to people = an islamic basic teaching . The freedom of belief of non-muslims was guaranteed , even under dominant islam : in the glory time of islam at least . What some current muslims do or say about it , in total contrast with those islamic basic tolerant teachings is simply irrelevent and unislamic Then why does the Quran tell you to kill non-believers? This isn't a few crazies who happen to be muslim. This is a core issue in Islam itself. http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm 1
pwagen Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 That's a ridiculous hilarious misinterpretation of a Qur'anic verse that alluded to something else totally different :I'm not sure how you can misinterpret "he has made a barrier and inviolable obstruction", especially when dealing with what comes just before that. Deep under the ocean there is a sort of a "lake " of fresh unsalty water not mixing with salty waterFirst of all, Cousteau didn't write the Quran. Secondly, it's clear the Quran speaks of "two seas, flowing freely", not "a sort of a lake of fresh unsalty water". Third, even if you find springs of fresh water in the salty ocean, all of the water emerging from such a spring would mix with the salt water around it. Just because there's a constant flow of fresh water doesn't mean water doesn't mix. There is no mechanism for such an event to occur.

Arete Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 ...so we do not hear much from the other reasonable moderate scientists, unfortunately enough . Evidence suggests strongly that most scientists agree with them. To pull a quote of myself from an old thread: 97% of Royal society members and 93% of National academy of sciences members answer "No" to the question "Do you believe in a personal god?" http://www.humanreli...telligence.html www.stephenjaygould.org/ctrl/news/file002.html. This is in two nations (the UK and the USA) where 65% and 93% of the respective populations believe in some form of God. http://en.wikipedia....#United_Kingdom
Moontanman Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Those scientists do not believe in God ,they are entiteld to that ,it's their God given right and freedom to believe or not to believe in whatever they wanna believe in or not believe in , but they are not extremists in relation to religion and believers like Dawkins and co are , not even remotely close . Can you see the difference ? No, science is not belief, it does not allow belief, belief is what religion is, can you not see the difference? Why do you have to twist things like that ? I talk about something and you mention somethingelse tottally different Point out something Dawkins says that is inaccurate... I happen to believe that even moderate religion is driven by it's radical fringes but my "belief" aside I've never heard Dawkins assert something as truth he couldn't back up but he does slay the horsefeathers that many of the religious assert as fact, it hurts to have something you truly believe to be true shown to be false but honest men admit they are wrong and go on, the religious ignore reality and in fact assert that were scripture and reality clash scripture must take precedence. I know Islam does this as well, the whole saltwater freshwater thing is proof of this, that lie is asserted over and over by muslims, usually in muslim schools, as truth when even a small knowledge of the world shows it to be completely false. There are other examples but i see no reason to pick apart any religious dogma here, it would be off topic but rest assured it can be done... You will find nothing of scientific value in any of the worlds religions, no advancement of knowledge, our entire first world culture is based in science, not religion, religion contributes nothing to the sum total of human knowledge and usually inhibits such advancement....

John Cuthber Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 Dawkins is, in one sense, an extremist. He pulls no punches and is prepared to point out all of the problems with religion. Many other writers don't do so. However, it's important to remember that an "extremist" atheist like Dawkins (or me for that matter since I hold much the same views) is totally unlike religious extremism. Check out the death tolls. Killed in the name of religion: lots. Killed in the name of atheism: nil. (please don't waste time + bandwidth talking about Stalin or Mao etc. here) . 1

Killed in the name of religion: lots. Killed in the name of atheism: nil. (please don't waste time + bandwidth talking about Stalin or Mao etc. here) . First of all, Dawkins crosses the boundaries of science on many occasions by implicating science in metaphysical matters where science does absolutely not belong and does have nothing to say about : metaphysical matters are way out of the "jurisdiction " of science . .. The latter can say absolutely nothing about the former . But , Dawkins does ignore that fact , on purpose, in order to impose his atheist agenda in the name of science , and does make it sound as if science that deals in fact only with material processes , that science does have not only a say but that science has also the final say , on metaphysical matters also : a real paradox . Dawkins is on a kindda atheistic crusade against religion : that's an exclusive ideological agenda of his he tries to impose to people in the name of science : i can only despise him for that , for mis-using science like that to promote his own exclusive atheist view of the world , while science has absolutely nothing to do with all that . I think that he should just stick to his purely scientific work he's good at . He just gives science a very bad name ,when he crosses the boundaries of science and when he misuses it , not only to promote, but also to impose his atheist world view to others as some sort of "scientific facts ", science has not much to do with . Worse : i think he's mainly a fascist in that regard , excuse my French , because he excludes all non-materialistic , non-atheistic views of the world or paradigms , and that in the name of science that has nothing to with that . In his "Selfish Gene " book, for example , he presents the Darwinian theory of evolution .as the only valid explanation of our existence on earth : all other attempts which try to explain what man is, what makes us human or where do we come from as humans , must not only be regarded or discarded as fairy tales , especially those of religion, but must be definitely and absolutely dismissed . Dawkins and co that present both science and evolution as THE major arguments against religion , whiie, in fact , both of them were discovered by religious people ,thanks to religion, thanks to islam in this case .: The invention of the scientific method by muslims originated from the epistemology of the Qur'an and the discovery of evolution by muslims, more than 6 centuries before Darwin was even born , came right out of the evolutionary spirit of the Qur'an . P.S.: Dawkins and co must realise that science has not the monopoly of the truth , that science is not the only valid source of knowledge, that science is not the only source of knowledge tout-court .....and more importantly , they should stop mis-using science for ideological atheistic materialistic purposes, science has nothing to do with . Final note : Secularism and atheism , not religion, have been ruling this world in all areas for many centuries now : a quick informed look at this recent past would show you , beyond a shadow of a doubt , how secularism and atheism were such big disasters for humanity , in terms of the 2 big wars , in terms of fascism, nazism, communism ...................in terms of western imperialism and racism worldwide , in terms of that despicable racist paternalistic Eurocentrism ...in terms of black slavery in the US and elsewhere ... Secular regimes in the 20th century alone had provoked the deaths of hundreds of millions of humans , the extremist massacres in the name of religion , can only dream of . The secuar or atheistic massacres , genocides , not to mention the holocaust or slavery , of the 20th century alone far exceed those committed in the name of God during all the existence of religions all put together and worldwide . In Short : Guys like Dawkins and co are certainly no better than those despicable religious extremists ignorant idiots . Guys like Dawkins are in fact worse than them , simply because they have been managing their pretty wel orchestraded " scientific " crusades and " scientific " inquisitions against religions in general , in the name of science , science has nothing to do with , while religious extremism is mainly the result or product of ignorance , of lack of education , of psychological and socio-economic factors ... So, what makes Dawkins and co worse is that they do what they do against religion in the name of science , science has nothing to do with , in the name of knowledge ,while those religious extremists do what they do in the name of ignorance in fact . Which means that " the real threat to or real danger that threatens true knowledge is not ignorance , but informed ignorance , the pretention of knowledge " Edited June 18, 2013 by Dbaiba -2

MonDie Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) I've linked to this before, so some of you may recognize it. Dan Batson gives a good overview of the research on religion and prejudice. Dan Batson has a degree in theology, so I don't see why he would be biased against religion. http://thesciencenetwork.org/programs/science-and-religious-conflict-conference-does-religion-lead-to-tolerance-or-intolerance/dan-batson-with-commentator-steve-clarke Of course, there's atheism vs. theism, and there's religion vs. irreligion. Batson was speaking about the latter, not the former, but we seem to be using the word "atheism" to refer to irreligious atheism specifically. However, I am going to give a fair point for the religious side. IMO, when analyzing the various components of this abstract concept called "religion", most of the components fall under "ideology", "superstition", or both. If either one contributes to prejudice, it's probably ideology. Although the dominant ideologies tend to be associated with the dominant religion, ideology can be irreligious as well. For this reason, I think similar orientations should be present in secular movements, even if they have different distributions. This section of Wikipedia's article on atheism discusses atheism and prejudice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheism#Atheism.2C_religion.2C_and_morality Authoritarianism is the strongest predictor of prejudice.

Yes, science does have something to say about those things, there is no evidence for them, none whatsoever... except for morality and ethics which are not based in religion and your assertion they are needs to be supported... A big no should be your answer , right ? despite those seemingly " scientific " arguments Dawkins and co try to put on the table in that regard . Well, Dawkins and co think otherwise , they think that God, for example, is just an idea , an empiric idea that can be either false or true , as Dawkins says in his God delusion ,for example ., and then , he dismisses God just because there is no "scientific " evidence for that . Precisely, there is no scientific evidence for god, any god, yours or anyone elses, in the face of a lack of evidence for gods the default position is there are no gods... That's a false assumption or a false hypothesis because science is simply not qualified to approach the question of God, for example . The very material wordly nature of science does not permit such unscientific acrobatic non-sense Dawkins tries to make science do . Quite the contrary, Dawkins position is indeed scientific, your's is not and is not supported by anything other than what some people claim to be true... Why do you, guys , do not condemn this materialistic atheistic hijacking of science this unscientific way that misuses science in this sense , by implicating science outside of its "jurisdiction " ? Until you can show some actual evidence for the supernatural the default position is there is nothing supernatural, horsefeathers claimed by someone who cannot show any evidence for his claims of horsefeathers, if you can't show it you don't know it...
