Author | Topic: Is Science a Religion? | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Open MInd Member (Idle past 1275 days) Posts: 261 Joined: |
Is a conscious something that is scientific? Have scientists even proven that an unbiased human never exposed to religious thought would even have something called a conscious. Do you believe cannibalism is immoral? If you do you are obviously not from Indonesia where such a thing was once practiced. Why is it that morals came to the world after the religions did?

You may have morals; but where do they come from? Have you ever read Hitler's book. He believed that all of the modern morals were all brought to this world through religion (namely the Jews). He executed as many Jews as he could to eliminate morality from the world. He did not believe that it was wrong to kill because he did not believe in any religion. How would you argue with Hitler?

I am not off topic. Science holds with certain morals. Morals are purely the invention of religion. A proof to this is the fact that religions came to the world before morals. Did I jump off topic at all?

Actually, not true. Hitler said that the Final Solution was a Christian effort. Aslan is not a Tame Lion

Did I jump off topic at all? That is simply too funny. The actual facts are that Science does have a Code of Ethics where it is obvious Biblical Creationists don't. Aslan is not a Tame Lion

It is you who scare me. You don't kill because you think it is moral not to. What would be if a person killed your relative that you loved? Would you think that it is a moral thing to kill him now?
If so, who is more dangerous? me or you?

Please explain yourself. I see big religious books which describe the code of ethics.

Do you know how morals could "evolve"? Morals are not facts. Science should exclude morals. Morals came from religion. Why is it that the human animal is the only "moral" animal around?

To work in Science you must abide by a Code of Ethics. If you breach the standard you are sanctioned, often kicked out of the profession. On the other hand, Clergy, Pastors, Preachers and particularly Televangelists are free to lie all they want and the profession never sanctions them.
They are allowed to continue teaching lies like the Bible is literally true or that there was Special Creation or that there was a flood with impunity. Aslan is not a Tame Lion

Would it be moral to kill in revenge?
No. Would it be moral to kill in defense of my family's lives? To protect them from harm? Yes. What's scary about that? Those who would sacrifice an essential liberty for a temporary security will lose both, and deserve neither. -- Benjamin Franklin We see monsters where science shows us windmills. -- Phat
