To Legionnaire22 or anybody who wants to join the discussion: here is a question: I just watched an episode of Penn&Teller. They said that there is no proof of God because SCIENCE cannot prove it yet.

Are they not forgetting philosophy and religiously inclined pondering on the essence of the universe and "logical thinking" when thinking about the Divine? I mean, is science really the only way to prove things to people in a way that cannot be disputed, through atoms and bacteria and mathematics?

Yes, we can all come to individual conclusions about things like this, but why do some people only believe in science and NOTHING else? How about using our own brain sometimes and not being a slave to everything scientifical?

We cannot even prove our own existence or that of the universe through scientific methods; I think that the Americans (those who appear at fanatically Atheist shows such as P&T) need to remember that philosophy and deep thinking also exist... there are things outside science.

I would like to point out that even though my words may sound quite harsh to someone and I am sorry for that, I am not against science, not at all. I think it is an amazing way to understand the physical universe. I am only raising the question: are we forgetting the art of independent thought and pondering on matters which numbers and charts can never explain?

What do you think?
