A Question For Atheists: How is it that finite scientists can use their finite fractal infernal temporal tools

Question

to quantify infinity, qualify divinity, measure the duration of eternity, and know all that there is to know about the totality of existence?

They cannot. Just because they cannot does not mean that our universe is an entity on to itself. Maybe it means that an infinity, divinity, eternally one remains hidden to scientifically reproducible discovery because scientists are too limited in their abilities to gather evidence, make inferences and draw conclusions.

How do your limited abilities to gather evidence, make inferences and draw conclusions prevent you from being able to rule out and or disprove a number, variety and diversity of myths about self and world only limited by truth and knowledge based on scientifically reproducible discovery and our creative abilities and powers of imagination. Agreed?

Answer 1

I can tell by the big words you use that you are super smart. I'll agree to anything you say. Silly scientists with their fractal finite filial flagellant fragmented tools...

Answer 2

Interesting point, which I happen to agree with completely. Mankind is so far removed from, and so far beneath, his Creator that we lack any of the tools necessary to even detect God unless He should choose to reveal Himself.

We are in the same basic predicament with something we believe in without question: gravity. We are certain that it exists, but we have never seen it. We have seen and felt it's effect for our whole lives, without a clue as to how it really works. Somehow a force is applied evenly to every part of you, and is sufficient to overcome inertia...in fact you exert effort just to stand up against this force. Have you ever seen anything pushing you down? Do we have a device of any kind that would allow you to see the force which holds us all to the Earth? Nope. If we understood the mechanism of how gravity imparts kinetic energy to objects then we would duplicate it or eliminate it through the use of some device.

The point is this: We cannot, despite all our knowledge and science, even figure out something that affects every single human on the Earth every second of every day. Why then should it be so hard to believe that God is similarly capable of evading us?

Answer 3

The day is fast approaching when engineers will be able to design android robots which are capable of mimicking human behavior in every way.

It will then only be a matter of picking the right rules and variables to input to the android's mind to force it to exactly match the behavior of any living person. An exact match may be difficult to find, but approximations would be easy and they can always be refined later.

Similarly, the behavior of an almighty God who is charge of everything could also be exactly matched by picking the right set of rules and variables to describe the behavior of the universe. These rules are known as the laws of physics. The unknown variables become the constants in the equations. The attempt to approximate and refine them is known as science.

There is no difference in a universe ruled by an almighty deity and a universe ruled by the laws of physics. They would both behave in exactly the same way.

Answer 4

well, some intelligent atheist bashing makes a change from hell-fire and damnation threats, but the principle is the same my dear.
given the premise that the christian god is [thus far of course] unseen, unheard, an invisible entity that many believe has sprung forth from the vivid imaginations of power mad men, and that the only proof is the faith of those who choose to follow the set routes and rituals, upon what evidence would you suggest the scientists perform any such conclusions??
agreed?

Answer 5

No scientist will tell you that he, or she, or science itself "knows all that there is to know about the totality of existence." That is the absolute antithesis of science. Science searches for answers, and will be the first to admit it when it is proven wrong. It welcomes challenges and doubt, and having mistakes and fallacies proven to be wrong, because that is how knowledge is found. In science, we can only know what is true by knowing what is not true.

It is religion, particularly Christianity in this country, that claims to have all the answers, and the absolute truth, which cannot be questioned, challenged, or proven to be mistaken or wrong.

Despite all your big words and illusionary speech and logic, you don't really know a lot about science, do you?

Answer 6

I agree with you. Science is only capable of conclusions according to what's already been discovered. The stone age people could only think of the "airplane" as a form of hallucination or imagination....But then not all scientists are atheists. Einstein somehow did not disprove God but he perceived it in a different idea. It's quite annoying, these know-it-all rational individuals because to think....their wisdom and knowledge is just a microscopic (not even) fraction of the universe.

Answer 7

I'm not an atheist, I just wanted to express my concern. I wonder if these ridiculous answers in this column will be presented in Heaven one day? I get a little nervous for these people. I understand that some people don't believe, however, I don't understand why some nonbelievers have to push it with their answers. What if they are wrong? They have a lot more to lose than I do! I don't believe out of fear, I believe out of love and faith and can't wait to see what is in store for me. Are there any people that simply say, it's hard for me to understand and believe, but I do?

Answer 8

Science can not even cure the common cold, though they have identified the cause as being a germ that can not be seen without the aid of a Microscope. Thus it is safe to concude that if they can not handle the smallest of things God is well out of their comrehension.

Answer 9

I'm not sure what you're getting at but infinity and eternity are concepts not actual measurements. Nobody claims that infinity and eternity is measurable. By definition, they are everlasting and without end.

Answer 10

Science observes and measures (quantifies) what is measurable.

If you say that there are things beyond observing and that can not be measured, then they are part of another world.

They are part of an imaginary world.

You can have anything you want in your imaginary world.
