If we find evidence of life on other planets?
Will they just bend and twist the words, and generally bullshit as they usually do, or will they eventually give in to the truth?

Lol.. If.. Hahaha.. Good luck with that
That's never going to happen.
Everybody knows that we're the center of Brahma's dream, that the earth is flat, that it sits on the backs of 5 giant elephants, & that those elephants are standing on the back of a giant turtle.
Nuh-uh! It's the World Tree, with the Migard Serpent and the Rainbow Bridge and junk:geek:...
His head spinning, after a long night of drinking Tequila sunrises alone, the Great God Bumba heaved and threw up the Sun which drifted upward and sailed across the sky. Still feeling sick, he tossed up the Moon and Stars. Then a crocodile, a turtle and finally the Boshongo people. That was the beginning of world, and of God's war against the pleasures of strong drink and nights out. After that He was just a general pain in everyone's collective ass.
These are the same old questions that atheists have been getting their panties wet since forever.
What if we find life on other planets...
What happens when science can not prove there is a god...
Evolution proves there is no god..
Etc etc.
There have been better arguments against the existence of God and religions still continue to grow. It seems the only ones worshiping your so-called 'knowledge' are the profiteers at your local colleges.
What if we do? That would neither [be] evidence for nor against the superstitions of religion. Though it would give us someone else to fear and to hate; that's always a plus for religious fervor.Quote:

This just illustrate[s] how much science you know__none. It is already the case that science cannot prove there are gods, nor can it disprove there are gods. So far, the hypothesis that there are gods has not shown itself to be useful in any field of science or technology. But one can always hope, right simplicio, I mean PomonaCA? The assumptions of science are only ever provisional. Science doesn't seek to establish proofs in the sense that mathematics does. Ultimately it is observational evidence that provides support for or against the hypothesis of science.Quote:

Again, no it doesn't and never will. Though it's very doubtful that the assumption, "There's a God" will ever prove useful in establishing the cladistic and genetic relationships between the flora and fauna of the living and fossil worlds.Quote:

That all you got?Quote:

No. Professors don't worship knowledge. They spend their days criticizing each others claims to knowledge. The "profiteers" are the people whose lives have been saved by or bettered by the researches of academic bio-physicists, academic medical researchers and epidemiologists. The profiteers are you who are now enjoying the benefits of quantum field theory as it applies to the engineering of ever tinier computer chips. The profiteers are you who have thrown away your road atlases and navigate by GPS (a device that depends on the General Theory of Relativity for its proper functioning), or who text your friends umpteen times a day, or you who waste your days in front of video games, or you who fly to visit distant friends and family. The profiteers include those of you who simply enjoy peering into the night sky at a universe that's 13.7 billion years old and attempt to relate to the myriad of galaxies whose light has journeyed for eons to reach our eyes at just the moment we look up.Quote:

The best argument against the gods is that they're useless. God theory has just never produced any testable consequences which have withstood the scrutiny of observation.
Imagine an event so significant that all time is either identified as before this event or after. So significant that the world clock was reset.
Everyone, upon leaving this life, will know the answer to the question is there a God. Until then live life as you see fit.
Would that be eastern or pacific time? Standard or daylight? Significance is relative. The whole world changed at 8:15 AM (unsure of the relation to GMT) on August 6, 1945 CE Gregorian. Anybody in here know why without looking it up? I'm thinking that anything that earth shattering as to instantly reboot time perception just might be actually earth shattering. So... Who's going to track the time & date when everybody stopped giving a shit about time & dates?Quote:

Even if life is found on other planets, that will not change people's view on religion. Religion offers more than just the belief that some guy lives in the clouds and spies on us like some kind of voyeur. Religion offers people something to believe in, because how much would it suck to really know that nothing that you do in this life has no consequence whether good or bad in the next?
Plus people refuse to think that people are inherently bad. Every time something bad happens they say the devil made them do it or they have a demon inside them. Instead of fussing up and taking responsibility for their actions.
