Yes. It's just religious extremists or uptight Catholics that say otherwise.

Edited by Inyaccurate: 7/30/2013 3:42:54 AMHere's an example. I believe that God made the Big Bang happen. There's mythical portions of the Bible, like Genesis, that I assume were made before we found out about Evolution, which I think is how it happened. Simply put, I believe that "God made science happen", and then there's those certain portions of the Bible that people take too seriously.

Believing that any god created the universe in its early conditions is unscientific, not because it's demonstrably wrong but because it is in no way empirically verifiable (or unverifiable). That makes your belief incompatible with science.

Edited by Inyaccurate: 7/30/2013 6:26:24 AMYeah, ok, that's fair. Fair game! Science is cold hard facts (despite there being mysteries out there), and I can go outside and prove that water is made up of a particular molecular structure, for example, while with religion I have to dig deeper. Like, dig into my very being, and I have to look at what's around me. I have to look at all of the amazing things in the universe, like how planet Earth just happens to be in the most perfect conditions for making it in space. In other words, it's in a Goldilocks Zone. I have read portions of a book called [i]Parallel Worlds[/i], by Michio Kaku. Now, this guy is [i]the bomb[/i] in the science world. He's one of the top gun theoretical physicists out there. One thing that I remember from that book is that if it weren't for Jupiter, we'd be in a whole lot more trouble with asteroids and such. It's so big that it takes most of the possible hits for us! That's crazy, and so are [i]a lot [/i]of other things in the universe, and I don't want to think they're just coincidences.
