Q. Evolution is a branch of science. It's no more a religion than chemistry or physics or any other scientific field. Evolution has the evidence if you are WILLING to look at it. christianity is a religion. evolution is not. so how is it a religion?
Asked by XINIO654-THE NOLDOR GAYTHEIST - Fri Jan 2 00:53:30 2009 - - 25 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Webster's Dictionary defines religion as follows, "Cause, principle or system of beliefs held with ardour and faith." Surely this is an apt description of evolution. Evolution is a 'belief system' i.e. a religion ! Models of science are subject to change for both creationists and evolutionists. But, the beliefs that these models are built on are not. The problem is that most scientists do not realize that it is the belief (religion) of evolution that is the basis for scientific models (the interpretations, or stories) used to attempt an explanation of the present. Evolutionists are not prepared to change their actual belief that all life can be explained by natural processes and that no God is involved (or even needed). Evolution is a… [cont.]

A. look another way! when we are in our mother's womb, what was the purpose then? your mum eat good things, think good thoughts so that you can be born with a good nature. and vice-versa. so we ask what is the purpose of this world? life is a continuous process. therefore if u think there is another world after this one, then we should live this life in anticipation of the next. we must prepare to go to the next world by doing good things, deeds, good thoughts etc. then we wont be caught in a world of hate/anger/bitterness. its training the mind and adapting the environment. we should be fatalistic that ties us down. we must endeavour to change ourself and the world. its tough.

Q. I'm a Psychology Major working on a theory of mine based on Intuition and Deja Vu. I have my own opinions and studies, but I'd like to get some other peoples' perspectives to help me narrow down my field of research. Any detailed personal accounts of intuition and deja vu would be most appreciated. If anyone knows of sources that may be of help in my study or any previous studies in this branch of research, I would be most grateful. Thank you for your time and willingness to help out.

A. While I won't disagree with the first answerer, I have major doubt that's all there is to it. When dealing with Intuition and DejaVu, there are so many connections we've not even begun to see let alone understand --and that's just of stuff we have logical assumation of. What about all those educated guesses which we experience as they put themselves together within us? The first answerer addresses in succinct terms cut and dried reasoning, but there is so much more, so many nuances of possibility within the human interaction and inner, cerebral workings that to do justice to the science of it, I must bow out with, This is not the scope for it.

Q. Because I happen to work in specific branches of physics that contribute enormously to the Big Bang theory, I happen to have a particularly strong insight into the mathematics, evidence, and history of the theory, and one thing that I can tell you for certain is that it is unbelievably, almost inapproachably, complicated. It involves the cutting edge of theoretical mathematics, particle and nuclear physics, topological astronomy, and other fields that most people (even scientists) never touch. It is a wildly successful, but downright intimidating, theory. Now, I look on here, and I see a lot of laypeople insisting on their support for the theory, and I know for a fact that even the basics of the evidence for the theory are difficult to… [cont.]

A. Hi CAustin! A great Q. A faith? Kind of, but not really. Part of my "belief system", yes. I would say on average about 1/3 of all human's belief systems come from what they "are taught". So my belief in a the "Big bang" comes partially from what I've been taught. Also, I would say that about 1/3 of human belief comes from what they "Know" or "fact". In other words, some things are just plain, "on their face" true. Like 1+1=2. That is a fact, and you can always get some kook to disagree with that, but it's still true. The "Big bang" theory is not this kind of a belief though. We just cannot call it a fact as of yet. The numbers are a bit more complex than that. And as for "personal desire" and belief systems. I would say on… [cont.]

Q. Someone posted this answer to a question, and I am trimming this... What struck me about this is that if you take out the sarcasm, this is pretty much the standards that any scientific research is held to and should be held to. For example: Would you want to take a medication which has been approved by the FDA on research based entirely on testimonial evidence? Why do believers feel that they should not comply with the standards of other branches of science. That we should believe their research without checking it? That we should accept their theories as true, without any research involved and without following any scientific standards? Here is what the person said... The "skeptics" have a modus opperandi: 1) Demand scientific… [cont.]

A. you are right. let me add something i learnt in school a couple of years ago. science is only science if it relies on math. physics works with math, chemistry works with math, even biology, a branch of science that looks so simple from the outside, uses a shitload of math, compared to the social sciences (which are not) and business professions. so that adds another challenge to believers: now, apart from providing testable evidence for their particular beliefs, now they have to build a mathematical model to describe them (any scientist would be happy to join in the discovery of something new, specially if it is so revolutionary, so don't complain if you don't know math, you can ask for help.

Q. Every time Bush stands up to speak about the war, how we have to stick it out, how we have to stand up against evil, how our nation is being called to do its historic duty, I have the same thought: and what are you doing besides making this stupid speech? Presidents speak as if they somehow embody the will of the nation, and so the courage shown by the troops is their courage, the determination of the commanders on the ground is their determination too, and the strong will of the people to fork over to fund this ghastly war is their strong will too. They might even believe it. But this has nothing to do with reality. The people who are ordering this war to be fought are not actually doing the fighting.

Immunology is the science devoted to these problems. A progeny of late 19th-century pathology and microbiology, and the clinical discipline of infectious diseases, immunology did not attain a formal theoretical construction until after World War II, when the self was introduced to provide a ready and convenient metaphor for deciphering immune reactivity.

Q. Odd Little Stars By Phil Berardelli ScienceNOW Daily News 21 November 2007 It seems as though every time astronomers point their telescopes at the night sky, some weird new finding forces them to revamp their theories. And so it is with nine newly discovered white dwarfs. The stars defy their expected chemical makeup and by rights shouldn't even exist. An explanation could open up a new branch of astronomy. White dwarfs earn their moniker by being quite small, astronomically speaking. They start out as normal stars, but over billions of years, they expand into red giants before exhausting their energy and collapsing into objects not much bigger than Earth. Until this year, all known white dwarfs followed this pattern, and they all… [cont.]

A. The article discusses about the nine new white dwarf stars discovered with a different chemical makeup than the normal ones. The normal ones are mostly made of Helium and Hydrogen with traces of carbon, while these newly discovered stars have abnormally high content of carbon with no traces of Helium or Hydrogen. This discovery has baffled the scientists, as this defies the earlier theories of the stellar-evolution theories. It is theorized earlier that abnormally higher carbon content is observed only when the star is prepared to shut down the nuclear- fusion cycle,that keeps it burning. Once the fusion stops ,the next step is the gravitational collapse of the star and the supernova explosion. However these stars are proving that… [cont.]
