I have never said my God is better than yours (although now that you mention it...). Im merely making the argument that a person can have a faith and also take an interest in science as long as it isnt being used to debunk something that cannot be proven not to exist. It is no longer science. I wont go on a tirade against science like you have against religion as I feel I am above that. Can you possibly humble yourself and do the same?

Nobody's trying to say that your god doesn't exist because of science. Science has nothing to do with whether you believe in your god if that is what your faith calls for. I don't hate religion, i just don't see it as a necessary part of my life's fulfillment. I do not need religion to explain life to me.

What "explains life" to you?

Oh yes they are, one is jlogajan in his "brainless" comments. Now I wont honor such talk because I know it doesnt add anything to a discussion.

Religion isnt necessary for a fullfilled life. Jesus is (in my opinion).

Pure Barbra Streisand! You, little girl, are one of the most hostile to religion on FR. If you didn't "hate" it, its discussion would not warrant your attention as much as it does.
