^U got me there.
Neways, just to clear the air then, u can call me the biggest science fan out here who is completely neutral/unbiased when it comes to topic as such. The thing many don't realise is that they think that voting out for science or discussing in favour of it would automatically give them the rights to flame or laugh at ones who favour supernatural phenomena or say GOD. I believe the "end arguments" from both the sides hold valid. i.e
Theists argue :
1. GOD created life
2. God created Universe
You really can't ignore the question where the all the material & energy in Universe came from! Scientists have even started to argue that life came from outside the planet. And what bt string theory and parallel universe??
Science argues :
1. Who created GOD then?
2. Many theories and the stuff!
Well thats also a reasonable question, as to where GOD is residing and whats "his"(?) gender. Some even argue "where GOd was?" when various kinds of injustices and crime happened.
When it comes to GOD, I really can't argue coz it all becomes illogical and nothing to quesion or intellectually stimulating! But when it comes to science, the power of questioning rises exponentially. That increases your knowledge and with more knowledge many more questions keep piling up. The scenario is such that many theories have been formed with various flaws and setbacks. We already discussed two main theories!
Let me repeat n brief one. We already read bt the various theories regarding Universe. One of such was big bang and expanding and contracting state. Later scientists found out that reality is actually contradicting their assumptions and that universe was expanding even faster. So they filled it with an assumption of dark energy and matter argued by many. To many, who take it for granted that whatever scientists do is right and swallow it innocently, everything seems fine. Thats because they are not questioning! And when they don't question and instead support such theories, then they are obliged to answer many questions to those who actually question. Since it has become a kind of trend to support theories without actually questioning it out of your own understanding, then obviously answering a lot of questions that other might ask might puzzle the supporter.
And so let me ask how many have actually questioned the scientific facts, figures and theories that they support? I'm in no way trying to make myself look as the star of the show. But beware, if you try to logic with science then you are bound for a lot of questions too. And thats what I'm doing n have been doing i.e questioning the science and the scientists here. I guess many didn't realise my reason for posting here. But I neither favoured GOD nor spoke in favour or support of science (though I would favour science anyday). I guess thats what science means to understand how and why things work, isn't it? And I guess that how a scientist should be, to answer any question a person asks or atleast tries to find out and not laugh or mock one who might question something that he(science supporter) might not be able to answer!
Coming back to your next statement, NO I haven't forgotten anything science has done for us. But I was asking to ponder upon the logic in the first para of my previous post. If that same logic is applied too science, then science may also look like an evil thing. But that whole logic is absurd "exceptions" made!
I guess GOD is a better medicine for those who try to ruin their life with drugs, alcohol and cigars! They say "God helps those who help themselves" right? So I hope, no one will mind if I keep my train of thoughts and questions pouring in periodically corresponding to favourable logic that people (science supporters) might give likewise! So @rhitwick, I hope that answers a lot for u.
