: However, there is a difference between hunting for a dodo and hunting for a square with five sides.And in this, another scientist makes another empirical claim of no God - unless, of course you meam to imply that there is a five sided square someplace. See, this is the problem, Farinata, you claim that God cannot be scientifically proved or disproved then you go and say something like that. Where is your integrity? What am I to do (having some intelligence along with belief) when I am disparaged in this manner?
: We'll hunt the dodo; you hunt the five-sided square.
I'm only believing and hoping but I will take a minute or two, now and then, to point out hypocracy if it's at hand.
: (It is conceivably possible that a perfect scientific theory could be found; however unlikely; but any God that could be proved wouldn't be infinite; and therefore any proof of God is ultimately unfounded.)
Agreed, on both counts but there there must remain room in this world for belief and philosophy. Many here disparage belief as being unscientific and therefore, unworthy. The problem is that science is far cry from explaining us and I believe it can never do so. The problem of origins will always exist, however small the time period becomes between nothing and everthing.
