““Science vs. God: Does Progress Trump Faith?”
Well, 2000 years of prayer did not make the internet happen…
“First, looking at the entire phrase, I see the dichotomy!”
And? I mean, they’re comparing two things. Of course there’s a dichotomy.
It’s only a problem if you think it’s a FALSE dichotomy? Is there anything else you think should be compared in the article?
Or do you just get accused of using a false dichotomy all the time, and barely understand the complaint?
“Of course they put “science” first, subliminally offensive to me, next they talk about “progress” but they FAIL to state the progress of WHOM!”
Well, only Men have religions and only men have IT departments, so it seems obvious.
And I really doubt the point would change if they titled it: “God vs. Science: Is faith trumped by progress?”
“Of course I know they are talking about humanity in as far as the WHOM.”
Then why fucking bitch that they don’t specify?
“And again “faith” is the last word. Does that mean last as in “Save the last as best” or what? It is abundantly obvious...to say the least...the entire statement was slanted to be as infuriating as possible, to one side of the equation.”
Or, you’re a fundamentalist who takes everything personally AND in the worst possible way, just so you can bitch like a Karen with Rabies and a Loudspeaker.
“And then they began to discuss whether or not the Bible is “empirical” or not.”
Too much of it’s anonymous to be empirical. We don’t know who wrote the gospels and we can only barely figure out when.
“I beg your pardon...hmm...please speak up, I didn’t quite catch that...EMPIRICAL...? Such horse hockey, as in blasphemy!”
Dude, they’re already comparing faith to innovation, and NOW you’re worried about blasphemy?
“ I was so angry over this!”
Um… Cool?
“They want to equate the Word of God to anything they could write themselves, they were not able to believe in a god of any kind...because of the “lack of empirical evidence.””
Um, yeah.
I’m an atheist because none of the evidence offered for your god makes any sense or compelling arguments… When those guys said they’d achieved Cold Fusion and everyone said, “Cool! Show me!” and they couldn’t, so no one believedthem? Same thing.
“ THAT had my blood pressure up BIG time!! I need a break, here!”
Oh, such a Drama Queen, Karen. You being infuriated does NOT mean it was anyone’s intent.
It’s just a bonus.
“Okay, I’m back, I feel better now.”
Pretty sure no one cares.
