Taq, you have quote mined one small sentence from my message so as to obfuscate the message and demean the messenger.
I fail to see how the context of the entire post changes the intent of the quote.
The term, science is not necessarily secularistic. If a metaphysical realm of beings exist in the universe, scientific study and debate can be engaged in so as to determine whether or not such entities exist.
Science
is necessarily secularist. That is the whole point. As an analogy, you are asking us to use non-mathematical calculus. It is a contradiction in terms.
It would seem that the whole point of your debate is to demonstrate that something is true irrespective of religious beliefs. That makes it secular, and it is also the the basis of the scientific method.
Thus, you and the others responding to my message need to understand and acknowledge that this debate is not limited to the secularistic application of science.
IOW, you will try to use science until it can't be used to show what you want to show, and then you substitute science with faith. Sorry, but I see no reason that anyone would want to participate in a debate where you get to change the ground rules on the fly.
This is also why, imo, creationists should be allowed to size up our paradigm against that of the secularists in the science forums. With that restriction, half of our minds are tied behind us as Rush Limbaugh puts it.
So you want to pit faith against science. Good luck with that.
