Science is not based on the assumption that there is no God.

That is your first bit of absolute idiocy.

Science is “wonderful” you say? And yet you also believe that its starting assumption is that there is no God?

How wonderful!!!

But yes, there is no such thing as supernatural causation in science, you have that at least somewhat correct. If someone were to suppose that a supernatural force were dragging the massive Sun around the tiny Earth while leaving the Earth motionless; that would most assuredly NOT be scientific, any more than the speculation that the Grand Canyon was dug out in one day by a giant and his giant blue ox.

Please provide examples in the scientific literature that appeal to the supernatural as the explanation for any scientific theory.

Nor is it scientific to propose that the Grand Canyon was formed in unobserved, assumed time frames that may not even exist. 'Ad hoc story-telling' is not science, it is philosophy

Still posting your comic book strawman garbage I see.

Good thing this is not on the religion forum, because I have to call attention to your deliberate deception, continuing to do battle with your own lie(s).

Nothing in your post is in honest response to anything Dan, or anyone else but you has posted.

You post your own lies and do battle forever with them.

You are insane.
