  • I think you make an interesting point and got me thinking, didn’t want to come of as standoffish or something.

    I just think science pointing at faith loses the nuance between the assumption that a working theory is currently correct and the deep belief in dogma. Technically you could call both faith, but they are very different.

    As you pointed out science deals with unknowns and sometimes there’s not even a theory. Faith has historically been one of the primary ways to deal with any kinds of unknowns, of course, but it’s not the only one.

    I agree that being a scientist and being faithful isn’t a contradiction. I feel like science is a very broad term and certain disciplines might be more or less inclined to be religious though.











  • I don’t like the US government a lot, but if I need to pick my poison it would 100% be the USA instead of China.

    Also, I kinda agree with you on having superior governing bodies like the EU on a global scale, but it brings some hardship with it.

    The EU is already struggling pretty hard with some of the states not seeing eye to eye and others gaming the system for their own political benefits. Above all, Hungary and Poland, which shit on the EU every single day while enjoying all the benefits.
