else, why not explain why south america is such a crap hole? They're more religious judeo-christian than the US

measurement eror n shit can happen a billion times in a row, theoretically

your argument makes no sense Dvir

Because religion needs to be balanced with science

religion is anti-science

Yes, it is in the most formal sense.

it stops science cuz it complains you're "Playing god"

It does not meet the requirements for a testable hypothesis.

i dono, it does not have to be

They are two different realms

We cannot test it, so we also cannot disprove it. To me, that makes it irrelevant.

its organised religion that fucks with science cause they lose power, not because its against the religion per say

We can test factual statements in religious texts, though

It is ideology that fucks with science

They do not have a good track record.

sure

but they are not intented to be taken literally by anyone except the most stupid

Israel is a much more religious country than say Colombia, why is Colombia more shit? I don't think it has to do with being more religious.

so quit doing it

stupid

Heres the thing,

We can burn all holy books, and science books today

And in 200 years, all the science books will say the exact same facts

The religious books will say something different

But, we can also test the psychological impact of religious belief, which some of the most famous psychologists, like Carl Jung, have done.

Unless you know, science changes and discovers they were wrong on something

i said facts, not theories

theories can change

genders can not

I think people conflate the scientific method with the current body of scientific knowledge.

\o> dab

Religion is an aspect of a culture

Science books will look very different. There is a lot that we define in arbitrary manners.

currently yes

So of course religion changes

exactly, but science doesn't

```Heres the thing,

I can see why you'd think that, but there is much commonality when it comes to major religions, the basic teachings are very similar cross culturally and given that religion developed in every society on Earth, it'd probably be back in different flavors but a similar message.

so they'll say something different 😮

Different views of the same truth

Yes, there are psychological aspects to religion that are surprisingly common cross culturally.

religion offers no truth, thats why its a religion

That is why I find Carl Jung so interesting.

Gnosticism and Dharmism share essentially the same fundamental principles

dvir is just using the common tactic to keep trowing spagets at the wall till one sticks, spagets being platitudes heard and talked about dozens of times before
