So, I open up face book and see this.

>Ok. Ur right. The scientific method has problems with untestable things. But spiritual/religious claims aren't the only "untestable" things.

>You also can't test things like love or hate, but most accept them as actual, credible things. You can't test or use the scientific method to predict how much a stock will be worth on a particular day at a ... See More particular time and be right 100 percent of the time.

>Science also can't tell me how cold something is. Sure it'll say something is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and I know that that is freezing for water, but I still don't know the quantity of coldness...

>You said we know that we are on a planet in space? How do we know that? Idk about you but I personally never used the scientific method to come to that conclusion. I heard my teachers say it and believed in their word.

>Evolution has yet to be proven. Yes science shows some findings but there are gaps in the claim. You gotta have a certain degree of faith in science to believe in evolution, I personally have never seen a monkey turn into a human.

>And not everyone attemps to satisfy physical needs. What about people that go on hunger strikes? Or choose to stay up all night to study? Or abstain from sex until marraige or longer?

>U said the scientific method is reliable to our understanding of the universe... but our understanding is minimal. Scientist don't know more than they know. So really, the scientific method is reliable to minimal.

>How misinformed you are... for one we can measure cold. Cold is the lack of heat, which is EXACTLY HOW IT IS MEASURED! It can be measured in Celsius, Kelvins, or Fahrenheit To understand this phenomenon you are better to study the Kelvin scale.

>Love and Hate are forms of brain activity and hormones that are released and produced. We can and ... See Morehave most definitely studied this in a laboratory setting. As far as the degree of someone's emotional feelings regarding love and hate, I'm not sure we can fully understand those personal feelings, but we can definitely know when someone has love or hate feelings in accordance with certain hormones that are released and brain activity in certain parts of the brain.

>Evolution has yet to be proven? Are you kidding me? Every aspect of gene science and even medical science all relies on the evidence of evolution that we have, and it has proven to be true and successful. Not only that but we have TONS of fossil evidence to support evolution. Your statement saying that you have never seen a monkey turn into a human being alone let's me know you have no idea what evolution is. We did NOT, I repeat did NOT come from monkeys. Please pick up a book on evolution and get rid of all these myths that you think you know about evolution. Monkeys, apes, gorillas, chimpanzees, etc all share the same common ancestor as Humans, but we did NOT evolve from them.

>There are definitely people that break the regular mold of the majority of humans, who go against what normal human evolution has adapted us to seek after, and that, in my opinion is due to a couple of things. #1 higher intelligence, #2 developed sense of compassion due to our intelligence, and #3 faith and/or hope due to death anxiety and denial.

>The scientific method is the ONLY reliable thing that we have, scientists don't claim to know everything, but it has gotten humanity to where we are with our medical sciences, industry, technology, etc. Religion has NOT advanced humanity in any way. When science wasy saying we revolve around the Sun, religion was saying the Sun revolved around us. When religion said people with mental disabilities where possessed by demons and Satan, science said these people have psychological disorders and are not possessed by any supernatural demons/satan. The list could go on and on. Religion is not reliable and has not advanced humanity in any form.

It's understandable if you're loose with your definition of faith. In the context of the argument, though, you can't accept a loose definition of faith.
