Discussions about Faith, Religion, and their effects on politics and living in our materialistic world.
One Catholic’s explanation for opposing legal recognition of same–sex “marriage.” We are in a covenant with God. The rules of the covenant are very important to God, so they should be very important to us, too. If we love our neighbor we should warn them against sin, not encourage them to sin.
We use the scientific method to learn about the laws that govern nature. But the scientific method is not capable of addressing the existence of God. Science, including the theory of evolution, cannot prove God does exist, or that God does not exist. To rely on science for these questions is a mistake.
Science cannot tell us if God does exist, or does not exist. Yet certain believers have benefited from their belief. This discussion doesn’t assume this proves God’s existence. Rather, this discussion reverses the burden of proof. Here we ask those who don’t believe in God to explain why believers have benefited so much from their belief.
