Using science to justify science? You mean using science to learn about the universe?

2020-08-11 17:46:08 UTC  

How do you know science works, as in being a reliable way to learn about the universe? I accept science, but those are issues that you can't justify rationally with science...

2020-08-11 17:46:24 UTC  

I'm a fucking atheist btw. I like science, but it be the truth

2020-08-11 17:47:26 UTC  

What can't we not justify rationally with science?

2020-08-11 17:48:02 UTC  

The reliability of science itself

2020-08-11 17:48:19 UTC  

That's one example though

2020-08-11 17:48:22 UTC  

There's others

2020-08-11 17:48:38 UTC  

Give me another.

2020-08-11 17:49:35 UTC  

The laws of logic

2020-08-11 17:50:16 UTC  

How are science and logic incompatible?

2020-08-11 17:51:58 UTC  

I'm not saying they are. Science uses logic. It's that Naz is correct. There are these assumptions that science works with that are faith-based. Or maybe that's not what he meant... But there is faith involved in the process/method

2020-08-11 17:52:44 UTC  

They aren't faith based. Logic is self evident. That's different than faith.

2020-08-11 17:53:18 UTC  

So, how do you define faith? I use the definition of belief in the absence of reason

2020-08-11 17:53:56 UTC  

@Jarlkage Productions "There are these assumptions that science works with that are faith-based" yes that is correct

2020-08-11 17:54:23 UTC

@James B ugh. You two have at it.

2020-08-11 17:55:06 UTC  

@m.miller This is a conversation between you and @Jarlkage Productions

2020-08-11 17:55:20 UTC  

is there any reason to belive in god?

2020-08-11 17:55:31 UTC  

I'm not trashing science. I like science, but it ain't the only way of knowing

2020-08-11 17:56:08 UTC  

and if not why does this belife seem so concistent throughout time?

2020-08-11 17:56:24 UTC  

and i dont talk about physical prove

2020-08-11 17:56:52 UTC  

like a white beard hair flowing in the air

2020-08-11 17:56:59 UTC  

I am an atheist myself, but sure, there is some evidence for God. It's that I don't find it compelling, plus I think the evidence for Atheism is far superior

2020-08-11 17:58:08 UTC  

whats the purpose to realy belive in god

2020-08-11 17:58:30 UTC  

is it only to give away responsibility

2020-08-11 17:58:40 UTC  

or isnt that the opposit on loving god

2020-08-11 17:59:27 UTC  

There's many reasons, I take it. Ask theists that question lol.

2020-08-11 17:59:44 UTC  

ok

2020-08-11 17:59:47 UTC  

lol

2020-08-11 17:59:51 UTC  

Some say it's an evolutionary adaptation. It gives people comfort, or whatever... Lol

2020-08-11 18:00:49 UTC  

I also accept that there are people who legit believe they have good (rational) reasons to believe in that stuff too

2020-08-11 18:00:55 UTC  

comfort as in giving up responsibility?

2020-08-11 18:01:09 UTC  

Maybe.

2020-08-11 18:01:20 UTC  

comfort as in god will know i dont have to think for my self

2020-08-11 18:01:21 UTC  

But I doubt that's how it is for most of these people

2020-08-11 18:01:26 UTC  

or make desicions

2020-08-11 18:03:24 UTC  

some atheist belive in the konzept of good by acting acordingly and some christians who claim to love good are as far away as one can be all i say about this

2020-08-11 18:03:33 UTC  

*without knowing

2020-08-11 18:03:40 UTC  

they just call it something else

2020-08-11 18:04:02 UTC  

I don't hate people for believing in God btw. I care more about circumcision and abuse at the hands of religious people... I'll politely disagree with people on issues of metaphysics

2020-08-11 18:05:00 UTC  

I believe in selfish interests tbh. That's my morality

2020-08-11 18:05:08 UTC  

I'm an honest selfish atheist
