God's existence

You say that you never have to meet requirements to have friends, to prove that they are your friend; no you have made the assessment prior to allowing them to be your friend. So if that means testing them on their ability to open any locker in the school (which is rather immoral) and then stating that they are your friend after the task has been complete. So you would demand it to show that trust can exist between the two of you. Demands are made prior to acceptance. It is ironic, however that some are perfectly willing to follow Gods demand under the same premise, does that mean God does not have faith in your trust? No science proven fact goes in the 'rule book' scientific theory goes into writing it. Rules of the universe exist, patterns caused by nature crop up everywhere like they're following a set code. Scientific theory is a book of rules, but they are rules that can be broken. Theory designed so that one day it can be experimented without it we would never have anything to experiment on. If a theory cannot be tested we will find a way to test it, just not right now. Theory is made on the untestable at that present point, not eternity. This is an example of giving a human life more meaning to the universe than what it does, what affect any human have on the outcome of the universe. What does the universe owe us? Nothing is the answer. It is because of this the human race feels that we need more importance and by saying 'we are the people of God' adds significance both to their life and even death, a psychological reaction to insignificance that is all. 'scientific theory is not the limits of knowledge' of course it isn't there are other forms of understanding in this world hence why the 'theory of everything' will not stop science and why we haven't even nearly closed the book to understanding everything 'Scientific theory is subject to mistakes' that's why it's theory and not in the 'rule book' , theory does not equal fact theory is the idea that will hopefully (being the operative word) lead to fact 'People attribute ideas to scientific theory, when in fact those ideas were never derived from scientific methods' 1.) Scientists do not do this; math will be used or prior facts. Theory will not be accepted without a smidgen of plausible scientific evidence. 2.) This comes from media such as star wars, star treck or other sci-fi media. People assume that something can happen because it can be thought up. 'People interject there personnel belief in the Institution of the Science as being scientific hypothesis' - this happens pro religion as well, the person who originally prophesised the big bang was Christian. He refused to publish is work, grounds on his belief. This probably halted scientific discovery for some time, not only he lost a lot of credit for withdrawing his ideas and theories; might I add that those theories are widely accepted today. 'People fail to different between what is scientific thinking and what is derived from philosophical contemplation' people define theoretical physics as the philosophy of the universe. It takes ideas and a new ways of thinking to come up with answers question as obscure as your own. So yes philosophy is very intertwined with science, just instead of stopping and accepting they carry on questioning. 'God's existence is more diverse then that we alone are taught by science' have you ever heard of achems razor, the idea is that the more assumptions that are made the less feasible the idea. Well what science says that the chances are that a big floaty man made the universe, then came into that creation to make Earth then made humans, not only did that then left without leaving a trace, who still watches us and expects us to follow his will; makes a lot of assumptions. Whereas saying that there was an event that created the universe, probably an explosion (that wasn't an explosion!) of some kind makes very few. An even better filter would be, religion was invented by higher ups to make people less rebellious and more submissive to the higher ups (just an idea I don't believe this). Which sounds a lot more convenient. So no it is not more diverse it is an illogical response to fear, diversity comes in many fashions why would the nature of a being, that wished to be worshipped remain hidden, especially when so few are worshipping it's power. Diversity in this case is null void, an existence made out of hope is sad and desperate not diverse Why is it that people wish to diminish the beauty of nature and chaos with the invention of a higher power. Because they are frightened of what they cannot control. Why do people create a being of authority? They need a true and just leader of will always be morally correct, people are not always thinkers. The weaker thinkers are followers' people who accept nature for what it is, they lose the ability to think critically and rely on a power that isn't there to guide them because they feel they cannot do it alone. Why do people have a moral leader? Criminals looking for repentance (or an excuse) will turn to religion for guidance again under the impression it is a truly good thing to do, a way of following the sheep. Again by 'the creator' being all loving it adds faith and trust to this power. Why do bad things happen? 'The most common response being God is testing you' - don't kid yourself, God was testing the Jews, all those people that died in Haiti, Twin towers, cancer. That's one nasty person to test you by taking away what you hold most dear. It's a way of taking chaos and giving it meaning Why heaven and hell? Heaven and hell are for two reasons. One it's a punishment system good people in life go too heaven bad people hell, an eternity of suffering sounds pretty unpleasant so is a good deterrent from being bad, but it's also to gain that fundamental hope that there is more to life than eventually dying. So your claim is that science cannot prove or disprove God, I'm against this because we cannot at this present time. In response neither can a believer of God and although science has a lack of evidence disproving there is less chance of religion finding some, the convenience that only the human psyche is so complex, that only we can conceive such an idea that shows the insecurity and fear we as a species have of life. We are no different to animals, animals don't have religion, and they don't have a God. They live they die... just like humans
