The whole article seems to be based on a false premise, that science is based on proof. Nothing can be proven, something can only be falsified. Good Science is based on theories that we haven’t disproved, yet.

Religion seems to be based on the faith of absolute truths and consensus.

So are you another one of those whose still waiting for more data on whether or not heavier than air human flight is possible?

Just wondering, since you don’t think its been proved that it is possible.

That’s “who is” not “whose”.

Sorry!

You’re kidding right?

It’s snowing in Denver today, interstates are closed, but the algoreacle crowd say there’s simply no longer a debate...global warming sky is falling is hardly science!

Yet algore has an army of scientists proclaiming it so! AND just like the anti-ID crowd, there’s TO BE NO debate! EVER!

Additionally...take a medication, it’s all about concensus. Some doctors will prescribe medication A, others won’t. Based on many variables, often having NOTHING to do with science!

So, We haven't been able to disprove there is a G*d.
That's good science?

I understand that there may be faith that there IS a G*d but accepting that there is a G*d because you can't disprove it is NOT good science.
