    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    Nigel Barber writes that Atheism to Defeat Religion By 2038. By "defeat," he means that point in time at which the world will switch over to being majority atheist. I have no idea about the soundness of his assertions, but I felt it might provide interesting reading pertaining to the topic of...

    Wow, you have a crapload of white space in your posts...I have a vB product that would cure you of that. :P Prevent Post Formatting Abuse See, you continue to make my point regarding your lack of understanding of what science is, and what it explains. I have already answered your questions...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    I take it you reject my invitation to get acquainted with science? Once you learn a bit about it, you will see how extremely unlikely a "vast scientific conspiracy" is. Science is our best, most reliable path to the truth...it is a self-correcting process that has arguably benefited mankind more...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    It's not the names, although those names became famous because their work achieved the pinnacle status of "theory" by brutal peer review, but it is the fact that their theories work so well, explain how things work and make predictions that agree with observation. I invite you to learn some...

    Well, when you can offer some kind of explanation and evidence to back your assertions, then we'll have something to discuss.

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    It's not science by the very definition of science, not by my definition. See, that's the main problem here in the U.S. We have people who are profoundly ignorant of science and the system of process applied to it. It is easy for them to be fooled into thinking pseudo-science is science, and...

    Two railroad tracks are parallel, yet converge in the distance to the vanishing point. You make the mistake of thinking I blindly accept authority. You have demonstrated a lack of understanding of basic scientific principles, and this makes it easy for you to reject them. You are still avoiding...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    Creationism/ID, flat-Earth, young Earth, astrology, phrenology, water divining, etc. are simply not science. These should therefore obviously not be in the science classroom. Freedom shouldn't include choosing to teach unfounded hypotheses as science. What a grave disservice that is to our...

    NASA and Facebook tricked you

    What? In the scientific model, the Sun puts out rays of EM radiation in all directions. This is a bunch of misinformation. It is easy to be misled by such when you are uninformed about what the scientific consensus is. I'm not trying to be derisive, there's really no other way to explain how...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    You and I are the exception, and not the rule. It seems most follow the religion of their upbringing. But as for you and I, I think we are both fortunate to live in societies free enough to make our own personal choice. I think that is the better way. A substantial portion of Earth's people live...

    Sorry to hear of his passing...I used to love watching "Farty Towels." :(

    And from what I've gathered, is directional like a spotlight, where it cannot be seen "from the side" somehow. :dunno:

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    It is said that the socialization is the largest driving force for religiosity...children are largely indoctrinated into the religion of their parents. As fewer people practice a religion, so fewer children will be raised to be religious, weakening the inter-generational spread of religion...

    Very mild and pleasant here today...right now it's 68° F., but we will be back into the 80s by Sunday.

    NASA and Facebook tricked you

    Are you saying that at one point in the Earth's orbit a full Moon occurs when the moon is farthest from the Sun, but on the other side of Earth's orbit, a full Moon would occur when it is closest to the Sun? No, I don't happen to own one of those. But, take a gander here: Moonshine and Lunacy...

    NASA and Facebook tricked you

    I took the following from Why Doesn’t The Sun Steal The Moon? and did the calculations to confirm. The Sun contains 99.8% of the entire mass of the Solar System. It looks to us like everything seems to orbit the Sun, so why doesn’t the Sun capture the Moon from Earth like a schoolyard bully...
