I am constantly blown away by the arrogance of “scientific atheists”. Their entire theology rests on the assumption that the human mind is capable of comprehending everything in the universe, and, thus, that anything beyond their comprehension must not exist (or there must be some “comprehendable” explanation that they haven’t thought of). This assumption, however, has no empirical scientific basis ... and thus we have the fundamental paradox of “scientific atheism” — their “empirical” faith rests entirely on an assumption with no empirical support.
Second, the entire theology rests additionally on a self-imposed hypocritical sentiment that the statement “There is a God” requires hard proof ... but the statement “There is no God” does not require similar proof.
Science is not a religion — and science doesn’t even conflict with Christianity. To my mind, science is simply God’s way of slowly revealing His miracles in a way we can understand. Atheism, however, is a faith like any other — full of assumptions, non-empirical leaps of faith. Additionally, like many other religions, it apparently has its share of arrogant holier-than-thou followers.
