Fuck you.
In a recent speech, you equated atheism with Nazism. I am not a Nazi and the two concepts have nothing to do with each other.Yes, we live in an age where religion is quickly dying out. In the past, religion served to 'fill in the gaps' of human knowledge. Whenever science has come along to fill those gaps with the truth, those clinging to their religious beliefs stop the progress of science, and for many centuries, religion has held back the human race and our progression forward.Today we live in an era dominated by science and technology; new discoveries are being made every day, and we know more about the universe and it's workings than anyone in history. This is a scary thing for religion, because it's purpose of 'filling in the gaps' is quickly becoming vestigial. It is, of course, no wonder that a large number of religious bodies are aggressively fighting against this new era of humanity, and it's not surprising to watch them go to such ridiculous extremes as to make comparisons with Hitler and Nazism. Pathetic, really.But for calling me a Nazi: Fuck you.

Only serprex is allowed to see the philosophical side of things. He was also the only one who could argue the topic while actually having any idea what he was talking about.
I love how if we follow this train of thought all the way back, it basically amounts to "god is real because reality doesn't exist"
No.
I, personally, am saying (other people will probably think something different) is that that neither science nor religion is provably better because both ask you to make assumptions to some degree. You simply choose which one you want to roll with. However, the way religion is used, e.g. the Papacy, can be criticised but only in terms of the application of particular beliefs.I enjoy how the people that are attacking religion/defending science are dealing in absolutes whilst criticizing religious people for doing the same.
"Reality IS consistent, it is the perception of reality that is not.""The math perfectly simulates reality without flaw."You don't even know what reality is. You only have your own perception of it. You cannot prove anything outside of your perception because you can't experience anything outside of yourself.Juju, I will repeat, Science is NOT a set of beliefs. Science is a process, a systematic search for the truth. Science cannot be false simply because science is not a set of claims or statements like religion is. It is a process, a methodology, and it cannot be right or wrong.
The body of knowledge produced by science is more comparable to religion, but this body is fluid and ever changing, and through science we have found errors in that knowledge and corrected them to the best of our ability.
