This is definitely not the purpose of science. Scientific inquiry exists to discover things about the nature of the physical world we inhabit. It is not the role of science to make statements about whether or not a deity which is capable of creating the world in which we exist does or does not exist. Many people who take science very seriously have decided that the evidence of God's existence is insufficient for them to maintain belief, but there are plenty of very religious people who are very good scientists. My dad is one of them. It is entirely possible to be both religious and scientific. -Dan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
