Science vs. Religion

[Rusty_nz]

I really want to discuss on all of your points further, especially you Fox, but alas I need a little time to formulate a well written post. Maybe next week.

I will point out a brief understanding on the topic of 'Biblical prophecy' though. I would suspect that many of you are not that well informed when hearing this. It basically means in a sense a deeper level of understanding scripture. For instance, when using the Word of God, you are prophesying, because it is the Word of God. So, when using God's Word, you're prophesying - and a person that prophesiers, are fittingly known as prophets. This leads me to my point, many people today use the Word of God. Preachers, pastors, bishops, priests, and what have you. In the same sense they are also known as prophets, but in the Bible, it also states 'false prophets'. To find out who are false, depends on how well informed one is on such things. But like I mentioned earlier, the fundamentals of believing in God are important.

Newton isn't really a traditional Christian. He is an Unitarian. Unitarian Chrisian.

You see, there is no such thing as a 'tradtional' Christian.

Yes, I do, although you didn't make it clear in your post. The whole point is that multiple Gods are supposed to have created the Universe, thus seemingly overcoming the problem of the reason why God does not care about human beings. These indifferent type of Gods could make more sense, although I fail to see why a monotheistic God couldn't be the same. At the end of the day though, I'm not convinced by polydeism purely by using Occam's Razor. What makes you believe in it?

I believed in it without even knowing that the religion existed, it was something I "created" myself in my head and I one day stumbled upon it the word 'deism' on the internet and read about it and realized it was just like my own self-invented religion. I believe that God created the world with a set of rules that cannot be broken and put the world into motion. He gave us everything we need to live so there is no need for interference from him. As for one God or multiple I don't really care on that subject, I kinda view the other gods as helpers of God or overseers that watch over the world He created. It's too much to post, I have like a whole foundational myth in my head, but I'm not gonna post it here.
