/sci/ - Science & Math

You jelly that some people won't burn in hell?

You shouldn't

Read their research. Check to see who peer reviewed it.
If everything seems legit, then you take that particular study seriously.

Their personal convictions should not be your concern.

So you don't take Newton's discoveries seriously?

Only because I like science, doesn't mean I'm an emotionless prick.
It's fun and romantic. Deal with it.

>Their personal convictions should not be your concern.
But they also subject themselves to bullshit, magical thinking, I just can't take their studies and research seriously knowing this.

Damn straight OP.

I hope none of those fuckers ever make it into medicine.

Selfless faggots.

>>3107459
Well Einstein did call Newton's research out a few times in relativity.

>>3107460
I'd rather watch Doctor Who and bang a prostitute to get that sensation rather than throwing reason out the fucking window and believing in celing cat

The beauty of evidence is that attitude or one's agenda has nothing to do with it. If this is necessary for you, you have missed the point of inquiry.

>>3107461
so do you,
do-not-argue
you've prayed for luck on more than one occasion

science and rationality are only effective because they are robust enough to withstand even human levels of feeble minded nonsense

So you wont take a muslim PhD in particle physics seriously.

Kill yourself OP or at least stay away from science. Humility is the first thing a scientist learns, that means no prejudices.

>romantic
>bang a prostitute

If that's romance for you, then I'll have to admit defeat.

>scientist
>religious

Pick one and deal with it.

>>3107491
Are you saying God will have sex with me?
If so, count me in

>>3107446

by not being a goddamn asshole.

Spirituality is something personal that you cannot attack. It's not like every scientist with religious beliefs is a creationist or something like that.

What's your problem? Seriously, deal with it.

no, i'm not spiritual in any sense.

>>3107515
So, Yoda is the pope now?

>>3107446
By separating findings and lines of reasoning from the person behind them. Just as you should with any scientist.

>>3107446
What's the big deal. People are entitled to their beliefs. Perhaps they've had a few large DMT trips?

You should consider having a large DMT trip.

>>3107469
Yes, because Einstein didn't believe in God either.

This just in: SAYING YOU BELIEVE SOMETHING DOESN*T MEAN YOU DO.

You assholes are all biased by your own fairy-tales, most of you likely more than any self-respecting scientist that calls themselves Christian to avoid alienating everyone they know.

>>3107544

> christian god

ftfy

>>3107446

> implying you can prove them wrong

They may take comfort in the belief that a god exists for example, you take comfort in the belief there is no god at all.

You are not much different from them.

>>3107544

He didn't.

It doesn't matter if they use the scientific method. That's the beauty of science...

Christian god is not the only god.

Yeah, that's kinda like the point. Ever heard of the term Einsteinian god?

“It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.” - Albert Einstein

>>3107446
It's actually quite possible. I mean. A lot of science recognized by "nonreligious" scientists is often wrong. A lot of science and exploration has nothing to do with believing in god or not. As long as scientists accept the scientific approach then it's OK.
If we were to take a small glanse on the saturated fats tiasco we could see that someone neglected scientific approach and then decided to let emotions kick in. Similar is true for a lot of other debates, even global warming. If someone understands and respects scientific approach he may believe in anything, as long as his work is professional.
The whole idea of having to have atheist scientists derivas from putting trust in a person instead.

>>3107446
Wow, rite, it is so awful and anti-scientific to believe that the universe has been created, since there are so uch science facts that indicates otherwise.

>>3107701
Implying every aspect of a scientist's life shouldbe turned towards science.

>>3107446
whats wrong in being a little spiritual you dick, not everyone buys the reductionist bullshit.

lol my biology teacher from high school last year tried to convince me that for the big bang to occur, God would need to exist - hence why he believes in God.

I'm at uni now, and am going back to my high school in a week to see some of my teachers - and i'm just going to laugh at him.

poor guy

>>3107609

Why does this assume that all atheists are educated in science?
