Personally I think there must be something there to have created such a compelling idea that has endured for so many thousands of years, but I also think that Godites and scientists are both believing in an elusive, abstract, intangible force that neither side can locate, quantify or even prove.
One day in the past, science and religion had a fundamental disagreement and both set off in opposite directions to find their proof. Godites began to look inwards for the man-made faith that enforces their theological proposition, scientists looked outwards with complex man-made calculations for the energy that they are sure explains the entire universe.
One day Scientists will arrive at the answer to everything and meet God and he will be a little old man like Yoda. They will fail to recognise that this is the answer to their question.
One day Godites will meet the unifying spirit of everything and it will be a small sparkly bit of light, nothing more than a miniscule firefly. They too will fail to recognise the source of all their worship.
Both sides will return to the place where they first disagreed and both will admit defeat.
I will be sat here, writing shit, needing a weewee, and sending off roughs to clients for approval.
- good point. now put a flux capacitor in there and you're done.ian
- There will always be faith involved. Faith in God, faith in science. For now it's faith in evidence, I choose God, you probably choose science :)designbot
- probably choose science. I think the reason God seems to be so "elusive" is because there is already bountiful evidence....still no one can "prove" either side.designbot
- evidence to support his existence. But the "proof" I don't think will ever be there on either side.designbot
- "faith in evidence"...what the hell?? designbot fails at life. faith != knowledge.spifflink
