Nov. 11th, 2005 11:23 amSo, the Wrestler and I got into this huge discussion last night about Intelligent Design. He was all, "Scientists should at least try and prove that there's a creator and not just dismiss it out of hand because that's prejudicial and small-minded." and I was all, "But Intelligent Design isn't science its religion and you can't quantitatively prove that there was a creator!" and then he accused me of not believing in God and I threw a pop can at him.
Return missionaries. *shakes head* Of course there are things like faith and belief and revelation that convince and assure us that there is a creator, but those are not the same thing as quantifiable scientific proof. Science is about observation and experimentation in order to discover physical evidence that define natural processes. And yes I know I'm preaching to the choir, I just get so annoyed when people don't know what it is they're really arguing about.
And, to think I actually missed these conversations.
Am not in a terribly coherent mood but OMG!!!!, Lost was so great this week! ( Read more... )
Am off to see U-MI battle against Indiana tomorrow. I'm sure we'll kick their poncy asses. It'll be great.
