Why do some truly believe Trump is the anti-Christ?

a. Because they wanted their candidate to win and are angry, in a spoiled rotten kind of way.
b. Because they don't like him personally and they are too childish to understand that it doesn't matter. No one is asking them to have him over for bbq (actually I'd kind of like to, as it would be hilarious). All that matters is how he runs the country and whether our lives are better or worse with him as our president.

 

It's essentially a religious reaction from the people who pretty much worshiped Barack Obama as a political messiah. When the nation turned their backs on his political legacy and put the anti-Obama into the presidency it was the equivalent of blasphemy. Hence Trump MUST . . . be . . . evil.

 

I say, what ever reason you need to get out and vote for
Trump’s opponent, go for it. He’s anti science which is the harbinger of MOST of the greatest ideas man has ever had.
Geesus, if that doesn’t make you anti Trump and you need religion to help you over the hump, go for it.

 

That sounds like something Trump would say.

And I would think you should know that there is more to science than being a believer in climate change.

 

Nope, nada, nix.... AGW is one of the major bellwethers of legitimate science belief.
Every branch of science is touched by AGW and literally, the consensus in AGW exists in EVERY branch of science. The characteristics of evolution for example are essential for both understanding the biology in climate change as well as in the biology of medical science with the development of vaccines. AGW predicted more future pandemics as much as it does more abnormalities in the climate itself.

That you would make such statement simply means.....your minority is shrinking as the evidence mounts.

Science is as perfect as man kind can get. I suppose you disagree with the consensus in every university in the world....I don’t.

 

Science is "as perfect as man kind can get"?

Now you're just trolling.

 

Yup... It’s fact. Name one discipline that has served man kind better ? Name it.

 

Given that you had more to comment on then just that statement, it’s you that have been trolling the majority of your posts. If they’re non scientific, it’s trolling.

 

When I was in school the Universe was supposed to be more than 20 billion years old. Not its barely over half that. "Science" is in a constant state of change. You can't place all your reliance on something that is in a constant state of correction.

And you ignore the relationship between science and religion. It was religious authorities who played a major role in preserving scientific knowledge throughout the centuries.

And given I taught physical science for a couple of years I do have at least some knowledge of it.

 

Hmmm, as I stated in the first line of my post, I am not accusing him of being a pedophile, but I do find his behavior with his daughter odd.

I don't have any children, but I can definitely tell you that neither I, nor any of my close friends who do have daughters, would allow another man to refer to their daughter as a "piece of ass". So that point alone makes the rest of your post meaningless and completely delusional.

 

No kidding. Had to ding you that way. Just kidding. But I'll openly admit that Donald Trumps behavior regarding Ivanka Trump is pretty odd. Probably not immoral much less illegal but still "odd".

 

Still waiting for something better.....
You may have taught science, but it seems you avoid stressing it’s limitations and defined objectives.

Science never defines or proves anything absolutely. It simply says, euphemistically “ given evidence we have now, this is the assumption ( theory) we have now with X% of accuracy ”

That you would say that science determined the universe was 20 billion years old at anytime as an absolute, is incorrect .

Your inference is contrary to every institute of higher learning. Science PROVES NOTHING. it attempts to supply knowledge in dealing with the world as we know it, always within the confines of what we know in the here and now.
No more, no less
Still waiting for anything better.....and waiting,

Relationship between religion and science ?
There IS NONE.
Sure, there was great work done and saved by the likes of Gregor Mendel and other religious affiliates in science, but religious doctrines and beliefs played no role, other then to inhibit it.

 

Incorrect. Science is not in any state of change. It’s methodology is constant. Theories in science are not absolute nor are they ever proven. They are in a constant state of revisiting depending upon the evidence acquired, which can change over time.
That’s why they are called theories. Religion is wrong nearly all the time, because it deals in absolutes. Our knowledge changes. Science reflects that, religion doesn’t. Religion requires faith, which is another way of saying, it requires ignorance.

 

Prove it. By citing a source that IS NOT anti religion.

 

Well said and spot on

 

Proof positive, prayer doesn’t work.

Want another ? Churches are closed all over the country. Every church has admitted, they are powerless and prayer can’t work to prevent virus.

Prayers not yielding an affirmative answer doesn't mean they don't work.

 

NPR is not a credible source.

 

You name a credible source, and I’ll use it

 

I will do this using science. Name one person whose prayer for saving the children, has...saved the children, even for just one day. We’ve been decades losing these kids and millions of prayers should have been prayed. Did we get a day off ? I have found none. In science, the lack of evidence proves none existence.

 

You assume something exists, when there is no proof. Hence, the definition of faith, which is lack of evidence.
My proof is, no evidence that religion works.....anywhere.

 

What’s better then science ?

 

Huh ? Of course it does. If there is no result, they don't work.
