[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Science can’t measure or test or prove or disprove anything about religion, God, or eternal life. It doesn’t have the capabilities to do so. It’s beyond the reach of science. [/quote]

True -- science is limited to the material world.  In addition to not being able to disprove God, religion or eternal life, it also can't prove or disprove ghosts, goblins, fairies, monsters or anything else that people imagine.

Religion, fairy tales, mythology and any other stories imagined by humans are beyond the scope of science.[/quote]

It also can’t prove that rainbows are beautiful or that it’s wrong to rape your mother but we all know those things are true.  There are other kinds of knowledge besides Science and direct observation.

Or maybe you see all beauty and morality as a “story imagined by humans.”  [/quote]

Feeling insulted that religion is being lumped in with fairy tales and mythology?  Too bad, because the similarity is that they are all based on stories.  Lovely stories in some cases and scary stories in other cases, but still stories.[/quote]

No.  I don’t feel insulted any more than I would feel insulted if you told me that there is no such thing as climate change. 
It makes me sad, kind of sorry for you, and kind of overwhelmed.  You are wrong, you will not open your mind even the smallest bit to the possibility that you are wrong, and you are representative of a large group of people that I, and my children, will have to live with.  God, philosophy, and morality are not fairy stories.  They are real truths that tell you about yourself and help you figure out how to live your life.

Without a real God, understanding of philosophy, and set of moral beliefs, then everything is kind of up in the air.  And then yes, I agree, there is no difference between Qanon and any other way of thinking or being.

- Consider that when your children grow up, they may not believe the same things as you do.  If often happens that way.
- Consider that my mind has opened and seen that the lack of gods is more plausible than their existence.
- Consider that your sentence beginning with "Without a real God" is your belief and not a fact.[/quote]
