Do some detailed reading on how evolution and natural selection actually works. The problem is that you have not presented a valid argument! Vera Mont...

Perhaps realising that the sun does not actually 'rise' at all, EVER! would be a good start. The Earth turns, and as it does, different parts of it ar...

Human aspiration and curiosity are aspects or 'drivers' of human intent and purpose. If I am curious about what exists up a dark path or how a bird is...
Science is a manifestation of human intent. In my view, science aspires to omniscience. This relates to my discussion with @"noAxioms" in my thread 'E...
I think some folks get to a stage where they have typed everything they wanted to type about and have received all the answers they are likely to rece...
What do you mean 'No link provided'? Did you not see the video I posted by Jim Al-Khalili about how quantum physics is employed in the biological worl...

Then, try running your thought forward. We are emergent, god is not, so omnigod cannot develop, grow, improve, aspire, etc. We can. We have purpose, i...

There is no evidence of rabbits memorialising science in the way we do and passing such on to the next generation. WE coined the name Rabbit. They did...

I think it's always wise not to be 'concrete' in your personal proclamations of what you are trying to label 'an objective truth.' I fully accept your...
