And because all of you are interesting to listen to and well, I'm curious about what you honestly think.

So here, have fun with this, while I do art off the computer during the morning ((which you sadly won't see till next week because I have no scanner here ;;))

Enjoy!

Inscrutable, yes. Impossible? You are misusing the word. God(s) may no longer be necessary to explain the natural world, but science isn't doing that great a job of it either. Ah, the cosmological constant.1

I have no idea what to make of your "as long as it's understood that this isn't logic but the impossible to interpret". That is not parsing at all.

1. Einstein, when inventing the Theory of Relativity, put in a 'fudge factor' to make the equations make sense. He later decided this was a bad idea. However, physicists later on discovered that yeah, there's a fudge factor in the universe. It's just all of our models say that the cosmological constant should be either 0 or a very, very large number. However, as near as we can tell, the actual cosmological constant is a very small but non-zero number.

I should elaborate: science is a great basis for explaining the natural world. It is not, however, complete nor conclusive. A lot of our models for the way the universe works are constantly being proven wrong as we learn more about how the universe actually works.

Using science as a basis for why we no longer need faith makes little sense, since the two concepts are almost entirely unrelated. One can explore the infinite vastnesses of space or the smallest atoms, discover how they work, etc., and that still doesn't remove the idea of a god or gods from the equation.

achuly, this is what i was trying to say. when i say faith is imposble to interprite, i mean it is something that is enterly internal. you cant shine a light on it and understand it, from the outside. it requires no evidence, and it is clearly a part of the human condition. people can and do just gain faith in god, and to pose science as a reson for the end of faith is flawed. science mearly elimnated the need for god to explain the natral phonomonon (like how everything got here). it dose not creat a fill the more intangble aspects of a persons life.
