>>dddfd: What I find disturbing is the arrogance of some scientists and their ideological allies who pretend that they really understand life

Shryke: Ah, hrm. I’ve not come across what you are discussing.<<

You have not come across any materialists who describe living things as no more than arrangements of particles? I have, here on FR.

>>I have come across a good amount of scientists that are pissed off because they have creationists telling them they don’t understand science.<<

I agree that there are some creationists who present very weak arguments cloaked in scientific-sounding language, in some cases because they erroneously believe that evolution science is incompatible with a belief in God. I think that they ultimately do their cause more harm than good.

I believe in a God who is the source of life, and that none of us are capable of understanding life, but I offer no scientific proof of that belief. I believe that at least some of evolution science is true WRT the external, physical form of life, which is science’s proper domain.

That is not what you said. You said they pretend they really understand life. I've not met any biologists that claim such knowledge.
