Are you religious? Yes/No and Why

[Lady Vulpix]

You can take anything people do or have done in the past and call it science, but that won't make it science. Making tools isn't science, and ancient mathematics were closer to philosophy than to what they are now. And I'm talking about the times of Ancient Greece, Egypt, etc. Before that people used numbers to count, but that was all there was to it. And therewas a time when even numbers hadn't been invented, so I don't see where you're going with your "Dawn of the *verse" argument.

As I said, people strived for knowledge, but there wasn't a defined method. The search for knowledge in itself isn't science. I'm not saying that it's worse or less valid, it's just not the same thing.

And sure, setting aside those who convert from one religion to another or just take or leave religion as they change their convictions, religious people will always believe that God (or Gods) exist, just like atheistic people will always believe there is nop God. What's the point you're trying to make?

Just keep it to yourself. I get annoyed when I'm preached to by a person with absolutely no way to back up their claim and thus no way to argue against it without going in circles for several hundred posts.

That sounds funny coming from you. Who's the one who doesn't back up his claims, here and in most other discussions?
