WILL SCIENCE DISPROVE GOD? [Spirituality & Religion]

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXey0X0CxjU]

You know where I stand on this question.

I believe science will prove the existence of God. The CERN Hadron collider already has, and people just aren't talking about it. When science irrefutably proves the existence of God, you can bet that leftist will do everything they can to cover it up and snuff the data. Just like they cook the books on climate change. Greed is their God. Power lust is their Messiah. Misery and spite are their religion and doctrine.
@puck61 I wish you hadn't brought the left and climate change into it. There are plenty on the left who believe in both climate change and God. Even atheists have only had minor success in cooking the books; they just double down on the name-calling, smug insults and memes as more evidence of God is presented.

@puck61 Naaaa .... they'll cover it, with a 3 paragraph article on page 87 or 88. One short paragraph with the scientific evidence and two long paragraphs attacking the credibility of the scientists. Like with environmental issues, they'll use some unrelated observations as fake proof.

It's like how they love to point to sinking land or erosion as proof that the seas are rapidly rising.
@Heartlander Do you remember that experiment in grade school where you filled a bowl with ice and then poured water in right up to the rim of the bowl, then, when the ice all melted, the water level stayed exactly the same?
If you don't that's okay because the genius alarmists don't seem to remember it either!
Heartlander · 80-89, M
@puck61Yep ... also those experiments where you pour sand or dirt into a bucket of water and the water level does rise. Also those experiments where you pour water from one bucket into another, and astonishingly the water level in one bucket goes down and the other rises!!!
@Heartlander Mass displacement is not equal to mass replacement. 👍

@puck61 Particle-physics, commerce, right-wing and left-wing politics, envy and religious belief all in half a dozen sentences; but do please tell us how analysing atoms has proven God's existence, if possible with the formal references to the peer-reviewed reports.

Please don't cite the so-called "God Particle" though _ that phrase was a physicsts' joke.

@puck61 If that's an oblique reference to the Arctic sea-ice melting, then with respect you've missed the point.

Although as you say that won't raise sea-level because it is just frozen sea-surface, [i]land [/i]ice-cover melting away on a large scale certainly will; and that is the real object of concern.

Still, that is digressing from the OP's amusing question. I suppose you could blame God, though! :-)
@ArishMell If you choose not to believe that is your right. It was not a reference to the Higgs Boson necessarily, and I implied that the proof they have so far is refutable. I said, "[i]When[/i] science [i]irrefutably[/i] proves the existence of God, ...." Silly people think they are punishing God by not believing in Him. God certainly does not need me to defend Him! All humans believe in God, certain groups clutch their feigned unbelief, because they somehow think they are hurting God's feeling by preaching His non existence! The overwhelming majority of them would cry out to God if they faced imminent death and / or intense pain. They hate accountability until they are called to account. Then they only know terror and regret.
@ArishMell Then why has the water hit the same mark at high and low tide here in the Florida panhandle since 1993? Not withstanding hurricanes and tropical storms of course.

@puck61 Agreed.

@puck61 Too short a time for a significant rise yet. A friend who keeps a boat on tidal stretch or river in the South of England says he's noticed no changes either, but he does accept the predicted threat is timed over the rest of the Century and would be an accelerating change.

He is a retired geography and geology teacher so does understand both modern, human-influenced, and Quaternary, all-natural, climate changes well enough to tease fact from fiction, sensationalism or politics.

However, I accept you probably don't believe it, because I am well aware that climate-change is a deeply-sensitive [i]political[/i] topic in the USA, irrespective of whatever is reported and forecast by scientists in the USA and around the world.

@puck61 You still haven't given evidence for your claim that the LHC has proved the existence of your god. To be honest, I'd love to see it.

Why do christians nearly always have to resort to childish insults? Is it really all they have to offer or seriously believe they're a valid substitute for reasoned argument?

If that were true, it would be so that ignorant children, like yourself, Sharon, would understand that we're telling you the truth about how you behaving.

LOL! I offered an example as proof of my claim and, despite denying it, your response confirmed what I said. PML!

What proof would that be, Sharon?
@Sharon He's right, Sharon. Evangelical atheists are ignorant and childish. Intelligent atheists do not engage their detractors at every opportunity.

@Emosaur Thinking that your personal opinion is a valid source for the correction of others, is what is referred to as "arrogance". [quote]atheists correct those who are wrong[/quote] When someone is legitimately corrected they stop believing falsehood, and begin believing truth. Opinions are not facts. [b]People watched Jesus raise the dead, walk on water, give sight to the blind, heal the lame, and many other amazing miracles, and later cursed at Him and spat on Him as he carried His cross up Golgotha.[/b] No atheist has ever corrected a Theist in history! I get the impression that you are very young and inexperienced with the world as it is.

It doesn't but theists only have childish insults and irrelevancies to offer in place of reasoned argument.
@Emosaur Denying the existence of Christ is like denying the existence of gravity, the moon, or the sun. He completely changed the world more than any other human in history. Millions have died and continue to die for a testimony to Him. It is the height of foolishness to deny the undeniable, and you are not hurting God by pretending He doesn't exist. I can only hope you have a change of heart as you grow older and wiser.

@puck61 I honestly think science will exalt Him. I don't know why people try to prove so much that He isn't real. The fact that they even have to is proof enough to me.
