Religion

(13,029 posts)Since "why is the sky blue" and "why do stars shine" are perfectly legitimate questions. If you're going to claim that those questions asking "why?" are not "why" questions, I can't help you.
And when religionistas try to make truth claims about the physical world, it's they who are trying to put science and religion under the same roof, not me, dude. Do you seriously not even grasp that? When believers try to invoke science, when they think it supports their claims (which they do, despite your rather silly claim to the contrary), but reject the need for science or "proof" in matters of faith when it demolishes their claims, that's the irony. My motive is to expose that hypocrisy and double standard. I'm peddling the truth, and intellectual honesty. What you're peddling is obviously something else.
