Ex: One has to believe something to produce a hypothesis, the hypothesis provides an artificial framework (paradigm). Tests are made within this paradigm to further the hypothesis to theory or to dis regard it. Back to the beginning, the hypothesis was based on a belief-bias that something should "work" a certain way. The logos was built upon that frame work so therefore isn't science a belief system almost comparable to religion.

Yes. Science is a belief system. BUt religion is a 'faith' system. Science requires that conjecture and theory be 'proven' thorugh experimental verification (which can be reproduced by anyone, anywhere, anytime). Religion requires that they be accepted on faith.

No. only the alternative. this is stable technology, however. people who use technology to diminish back up their ideals generally forget approximately approximately outcomes that do the alternative. this is a difficulty we will continuously have. the way reducing side technology works is that somebody comes up with an thought and a series of experiments meant to purpose it. this is then open to scrutiny, the place others could additionally try the thought and learn the preliminary outcomes. the difficulty I point out is that somebody has to pay for it. In our society, the investment is in many cases offered by making use of people who've a vested interest in a undeniable effect, extremely than only investment 'precis' learn. i don't blame every person for this. If it have been my money, i does not want it disappearing down a blind alley. Who might? in my opinion, the assumption equipment must be as follows:- i think purely that that's empirically shown to be the main examined, and that i'm ever open to new empirical documents that would contradict that thought and apart from, i'm arranged to continuously revue my ideals in that way. yet, human beings are not like that, are they? I too am human!!!

Science is not a belief system, nor that "something should work a certain way."
Science is based on observation and understanding. For example, Quantum Mechanics and Relativity are both counter-intuitive. They work both born out of observations which indicated "things aren't working as WE believe they should!"

ALL HUMAN BELIEF IS ON THE BASIS OF FAITH.
Science doesn't PROVE anything in an absolute sense. Scientific "truth" is only conditional truth, and the conditions can never be fully known or understood.
Time, matter, and space are all infinitely divisible, and humans can only perceive and communicate generalizations: Ergo, all human belief is on the basis of faith (trust that the belief is true).

i think hypothesis is a message/proposal/tentative theory or an opinion based on incomplete evidence but religion is a strong belief/supernatural power that controlls the human destiny.
So u can't equate the two,this my way of thinking.

the prime test of a theory is, can it be supported by observation!..If it is, then its regarded as a good theory! Observation is not in the realm of a paradigm, unless it is artificially created that way!..eg, go to a movie, whats on the screen is fiction, but the spectral breakdown of the light provided is real!..You can observe it and test its theory!..Ergo, it is truth!.{unless your a creationist}..Religion is the true paradigm, Is it born out of Mytho's What observational tests can you run to prove the theory of God?..Human experience?.Miracles written in a book?..Tens of thousands being slaughtered by God, in his infinite mercy? and not an earthquake?..You know what we call you in Australia..A bloody **** stirrer!..Keep doing it, you might make someone actually think!..

shouldn't it be EG and I should say NO because science happens whether you believe it is going to happen or not. If I was to drop a heavy wieght towards your head it would crush your skull whether you believe in gravity or no. Most of the things that science has DISCOVERD were there already. Go figure as you americans are fond of sayuing.

Science uses observation to test it's theory's or hypothesis.
But yes, all things experienced by humans is rationalized by human thought
However, religion might be the cup of tea best suited for you

I doubt many people will agree with you on this issue. I also believe you have just demonstrated a better understanding of the Scientific Method than may 'Scientists'. I think you may have misused the term 'logos'.

Yes it is. And in the future many wars will be fought over what form of science belief is the correct one!
