Revision as of 16:06, July 11, 2010
, 16:06, July 11, 2010An answer to Andy's latest rhetorical question
: Thanks for your suggestion, but please explain your objection to [[QM]] more clearly first. I think more [[atheists]] deny [[QM]] than people of [[faith]] do, and unlike the [[theory of relativity]], [[QM]] has produced immensely productive inventions.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 08:13, 29 June 2010 (EDT)

==Theology and science==
* ''Consider this: have [[atheist]]s moved the study of physics away from an inquiry into "order" and "perfection" because they are synonymous with [[God]]?''
To ask the question is to answer it. Surely when we look at anything the first thing we try to determine is its [[purpose]]. "What's that doing there?"
A bird's nest differs from a random bunch of twigs, because a living creature instinctively formed natural elements into a purposive structure. The difference between a pile of rocks and [[Stonehenge]] is that human beings placed the monoliths for a purpose.
Order is evidence of purpose. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:06, 11 July 2010 (EDT)
