In the view of physical science, every observable phenomenon can be explained on the bases of the known laws of nature or laws yet to be discovered. If there is a phenomenon that we cannot understand or explain with our present state of knowledge, then we have to await future discoveries and developments. The fact that we do not understand an event or a phenomenon should drive us to seek an understanding of it. There are no mysteries in science; everything has a scientific explanation.

Religious nuts aren't interested in facts or scientific findings. What some uneducated, superstitious, guy said two thousand years ago is much more believeable to him.
It makes no difference where he got his information, who cares if it's reliable or not, just so long as he scribbled something on an old piece of parchment, that makes it beyond all doubt.
A scientist can't argue with a preacher. The preacher "knows". It's in the book, that's enough.

I am Roman Catholic and I also have a hard time understanding the Fundamentalists. Personally I see nothing wrong with your statement. I also see no reason that science and religion should be in conflict because generally science is dealing with the physical world and religion gives us a way to find spiritual enlightenment. I believe that uncovering more scientific truth can even lead to a greater understanding of God. I also doubt that all scientists are atheists. Fundamentalists seem to like to argue a lot with everybody, especially other churches and religions. I can not answer why they do it but it does not surprise me. I think that if they could some would act just like the extremists in other faiths and blow up everyone that is not like them. But please understand that these people represent a minority of Christians and most of us are not that ignorant and do not hate science.

Because they are foolish. Your statement sounds OK to me. You have to remember, there are extremists even in the christian faith.
God made a physical world. He made certain rules, etc. that it all follows. It is reasonable to think that anything in nature can be explained.
It is only when you leave the physical realm into the spiritual realm that science can no longer explain things but instead you must use faith.
Sorry you had a violent reaction. You'll not get one from me.

properly i'm not an atheist yet i don't agree. through question, how do u define info? If a guy or woman say that he had a dream approximately working from somebody, what info is there to assist that he had that dream? All info do not could be defined by the 5 actual senses. in reality the religious isn't defined by the 5 actual senses. yet it fairly is the info that persons decide to assist existance of God. the challenge is that experiencing God & the religious is somebody & very own adventure it incredibly is unique to the guy. the way i will adventure him is probably not the way u could adventure him. however the completed human is an amalgamation of the two the religious & the actual, & whilst the 5 actual senses relate to the actual ingredient of guy, we've what's generally a 6th sense that's tuned to the religious ingredient. the challenge is this 6th semse is below-stepped forward & below-utilized in many human beings. we count lots now on our 5 actual senses that the 6th sense is heavily suppressed & we've faith that it do not exist or that the entities concerning that 6th sense do not exist. we desire info of the religious to greater healthful into the constrained bounderies of the 5 senses...even tho we properly be conscious of that those 5 senses can't even relate to lots of the particular issues (far much less the religious) that exist around us & that we could continually supplement those senses with synthetic guy-made advancements to alter into conscious of the unseen, unheard international that exist around us. nonetheless atheists & different incomplete & un-recommended human beings call for info of the religious in varieties that we can see, pay attention, flavor, touch or scent. And this from people who stay now in a international so far removed from nature that it isnt humorous. and it fairly is the reason I question how do u define the understanding "info". i assume that the info that atheist look for is in a sort that a guy or woman can see or pay attention or touch. yet trillions of folk through fact the advent of guy attesting with regard to the very own reports they have had with God actually can't be info. looking exterior & seeing the sunlight, the moon, the animals, the fishes, the birds, human beings precisely as they have been suggested to be created isn't info. yet believing in a technique that no residing guy or woman has ever seen even tho it incredibly is meant to be an ongoing & non-supply up technique is labeled as info & popular as reality.

You just said this on another thread too. I dont see the reason why a fundementalist would "react violent" to it though, there is nothing at all blasphemic about it. I agree and I am a Christian, the only reason why I think sciences hasnt discovered anything in the way of the Spiritual, is because not enough attention is paid to it. An Athiest scientist certainly doesn't want to discover it, because then he has to rethink being an Atheist. When a scientist who is a believe in God, discovers something spiritual... the power of prayer for example, they are laughed at by the Atheist scientist. But I'm sure there is pleanty to be discovered in the spiritual realm if scientists would put their minds to it to study.

Perhaps reading the book The Bible, The Koran And Modern Science by Professor Maurice Bucaille will help you to improve your understanding.

If everything has a scientific explanation, there wouldn't be religion.
I have many friends who are doctors, and they all admit that they can't even tell me why many vaccinations have limited lifespans. When its supposed to be retained in the body.
There are many unknowns in this world. Saying that there's a scientific explanation for everything is overly simplistic, cos there really isn't. Much of what you know of science today is postulation and hypothesis, yet to be confirmed.
Even evolution of humans cannot be proven.

This assumes that only observable phenomenon make up reality.
Seems a bit narrow minded to me.

Religion is based on emotional arguments, not reason. Therefore, they really frown on the idea that everything can be explained with reason. It leaves their superstition out of the picture.

Your key phrase, of course: "Christian fundamentalist."
I'm a Christian, but I don't see anything objectionable about your statements.
