Ignorance Taken To The Next Level.

maybe he'll actually know what you're saying this time, I bet he's researching Gregor Mendel right about now....he'll still think of some way to deny it regardless if you fit his qualifications.

Vinvv why are you not on ventrilo yet!?

lol

Would be cool if he got on :( I don't think anyone cares if I derail a religious thread.

There is a "cool guy" vent server?

"The first rule of..." *** >< I've said too much.

for you to provide evidence to the contrary you would have to provide an example of a religious person that follows the scientific method, doing so is impossible (unless you can find evidence to support the said religion they claim to practice) until you can do such thing there really is no such thing as a religious scientist. if they don't follow the scientific method they aren't a scientist, if they dont have their blind faith they aren't religious, the two don't mix.

so like I said, you haven't provided such evidence.

In other words if you're secular, you don't really believe in a god?

Gregor Mendel. Until you tell me what about the Austrian Augustinian monk and father of genetics doesn't meet your requirements, we are at an impasse.

killing blow?

as to the vent stuff...i'm more social in RL situations and I sit at work with a headset all day so I don't facny doing it at home very often.

How about:

Max Planck, he won the 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics and is considered the founder of Quantum mechanics. He had been raised an observant Lutheran and was an elder in his church from 1920 to his death.

Or

Georges Lemaître, was a Belgian Roman Catholic priest, honorary prelate, professor of physics and astronomer at the Catholic University of Louvain. Lemaître was the first scientist to propose what became known as the Big Bang theory of the origin of the Universe, which he called his 'hypothesis of the primeval atom.

Or

Arthur Compton, he won a Nobel Prize in Physics. He also was a deacon in the Baptist Church and wrote an article in Christianity Takes a Stand that supported the controversial idea of the United States maintaining the peace through a nuclear-armed air force.

I could go on, but do I really need to? I think I have proven my point.

no you haven't again, the two things don't mix by definition.

Care to expand upon that idea? You really aren't bolstering your point that a religious scientist can't and therefore has never existed. You are just saying no over and over again without reason.

Apparently the points are logical, that's all you need to know. If you can't figure it out you're a moron. /sarcasm off

You really are, that's the sad thing. Just admit that people have the right to think differently than you and the problem is solved.

:Comes home:

LOL funny stuff.

Hey pretty cool jet, guess this religious nut job beat the system because he got a science degree. I'm changing all the textbooks to say God and Sarah Palin made the universe. Also taking genetics out, sorry dude Blind mentioned. You probably weren't a real monk anyways.

Also you are a complete idiot and I feel for you. (Btw thanks for pointing out the star wars joke earlier, that would of flew right past my head.)

BTW I'm suprised no one ran with beer to derail this thread. Sorry OP, I didn't even watch your video, but will agree that religion, and people with religious beliefs do get slammed...just like any other group we as humans like to lump people in with.

It doesn't exist because he doesn't believe in them.

Thinking differently is a privilege not a right.

Don't necessarily agree with this. Thinking differently is my right. Noone can take away my right to think. Privelages can be taken away.

Wat? Freedom of thought is a basic human right.

Protip: By page 8 of a thread on FFXIAH.com, never expect the conversation is relevant to the OP.

[OPTIMUS PRIME]Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.[/OPTIMUS PRIME]

Couldn't resist. I'm wearing the t-shirt. ;3

lol I can't figure out how to spell the word
But I was being that
(it's kinda like sarcasm)

Lol... totally missed it. WHERE'S YOUR SARCASM TAGS?!

I can't even spell the word, lol. Damn my horrible spelling.

[fa - she - shish]

How the hell do you spell that?

facetious

That's why I couldn't even come close enough in spell check, thought it started with a ph lol.

Lol, I feel ya with the spelling. It's why I don't post much.
