[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][ I am sorry but I haven't read through your post. Again, I assume heaven exists, regardless of science. Its not up for debate here. You seem desperate to have a conversation [b]butI'm just not interested in trying to validate my beliefs[/b]. [/quote] then why are you trying to show how your beliefs fit with science?[/quote] Because its a glorious moment for believers when science can validate what we always knew to be true. It reaffirms our faith. But it was not needed to instill it.[/quote] But history indicates that lack of scientific evidence will not impede people who are determined to believe. Like when the 19th century theologians started studying how the Bible was formed and found it was cobbled together over centuries and mistranslated and borrowed from older myths. Some people have difficulty maintaining faith after learning that, but others soldier on, either denying all the scholarship or making all kinds of complicated rationalizations about why the Bible is still the word of God. And scholars went to the holy land to find archeological evidence of the exodus and found exactly nothing in the desert and no sign of a population of Jewish slaves in Egypt. But that empirical evidence doesn't stop the truly faithful from believing. [/quote]
