Hi Platt
Sorry Platt - I wasn't sufficiently clear about how I see faith in
science. I don't see that there is any need for faith in science. In
fact, as I see it, faith within science would be entirely
counter-productive to the process of science. Belief in nonsense for the
sake of convenience (faith) is not a good way forward.
The point I was making is that when religion tries to reduce science to
mere faith for it's own purposes it is acting immorally.

Interesting the way this "all is faith" stuff is likely to go - once you
can get enough mugs to believe that there's no difference between
religion as faith and science as faith it's only a small step to show
that religion is so much better than science because of the strength of
faith needed to sustain the belief. After all science needs very little
faith so it's all a bit wimpy really. Strength obviously trumps weakness
so religious faith is best. It's so obvious now!! I've seen the light!
Hey Horse,
Science needs faith? At least you admit it which is more than some do. How
much faith is needed is not an issue. To require any at all is like a being
little bit pregnant.
Great to see your here again.
