scientists must work within the constraints placed upon them. so if you live in a culture that believes some women are witches and must be burned at the stake you'd be well advised not to push too hard on the status quo. smile

also, not to pick nits but the source you cited is heavily biased toward judeo-christian religious views. as already shown in the Einstein quotes, these sources are great for supporting one's opinion but not so great for getting to the truth of the matter!

Wikipedia has numerous quotes from other letters by Einstein in which he says that people lie about him by saying that he believes in a personal God, and he very clearly states that he does not believe in an afterlife. He repeatedly refers to all religions as superstitions.

I'll deal with Max Planck's quotes in a separate post.

Don,

I was using hyperbole to make a point. I don't actually believe all preachers are liars. I just don't assume someone is honest just because they're a preacher.

Unfortunately, when I was in the ministry years ago and associated with a lot of other preachers, I got exposed to the ugly under belly that exists in any organization and it jaded me.

As a side note, I am impressed with the new Pope. He seems like a decent guy all around, ... for a preacher. wink

Both Max Planck quotes can be found on page 198 of J. L. Heilbron (1986). The Dilemmas of an Upright Man: Max Planck and the Fortunes of German Science. Harvard University Press. ISBN 9780674004399.

The thing that I'm enjoying about Pope Francis is that he is causing the powers behind the throne a lot of discomfort. What makes it fun is he is challenging his handlers and because of what his office has been set up to be, no one can say he is wrong.

I can empathize. I was very supportive of the church and extremely religious until I began to study for the ministry. The end result was somewhat like getting to see how sausage is made.

No Mac. When *I* throw an insult, it will be intentional, not descriptive.

If I say a one lane road is narrow, ...I'm not insulting the road. I'm just describing it.

Not at all. My point, as I am sure you understood, is people, even scientists, live within their society and must, to some degree, conform to the norms of their day in order to make any progress at all.

I gave you several sources, none of which have a stated and obvious bias toward one religion or another. Your single source is obviously and admittedly heavily biased. Even at HuffPost you will find writers and journalists with opposing viewpoints.

I certainly feel you should believe whatever you want. But you mentioned "truth" and religion has never been fact-based, rather, it is faith-based. The rules and regulations are dictated (you would say by god...I would say by men from the middle ages) and then expected to be followed, not questioned. That is not how science works. In science you are encouraged, no, required to be able to present a fact-based argument for what you believe and legions of other scientists are standing by to put your ideas to the test!

I really like the motto of the Science channel.

"Question everything!"

All religions and all of their gods don't like to be questioned.

They just want you to bow down in compliance.

I gladly accept the moniker of " narrow minded, fundamentalist , as I believe in and glory in the Deity of Jesus the Christ.
If Christ is not what he said he is, then I'll be dust for eternity, but if He is God,as I accept, then I have waiting for me, as well as others, glory with Him for eternity.
Anyone can write an opinion about God but ,IMHO, the creation can not create the creator.
As I make my living as a potter, my pottery that I make,did not make me.
The finite can not contain the infinite. People make religion. What Eisenstein or others say about God doesn't change who God is.
I'm not upset or bothered in any way by those here that don't believe in God and consider my beliefs simple or naive. Grace is a simple gift that is true.

Although I have always been deeply religious, I do not believe in a personal God let alone a Christian God. -- M Planck (approximately 5 months before his death)

Quote:
In a letter to Beatrice Frohlich, 17 December 1952 Einstein stated, "The idea of a personal God is quite alien to me and seems even naïve."

fallacy #2
you can't prove or disprove anything by the testimony of other men's opinions


Quote:
book of Romans:
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.


paraphrased:
Are the words and promises of God untrue because men don't believe them? Absolutely Not! If you want to stand in the day of judgement, believe God even if it means you have to dismiss the wisdom of every man.

Think quickly all who have posted in this thread:

To those considering themselves Athiests - have you ever convinced a believer in any religion by asynchronous communication of any of your tenets?

To those who consider themselves to be believers in something that is unfathomable to the human thought process - have you ever convinced a non-believer in this type of asynchronous communication in any of your tenets?

I simply don't think this is a fruitful or meaningful way to have this 'conversation'.

It's my opinion that quoting scripture to those who don't trust it is rather pointless.

It's also my opinion that quoting men of scientific fame on what they have stated on this matter also is rather pointless.

Matters of belief in a God or even the rejection of such ideas are, in my opinion, both matters of faith - the only difference is in what/which/whom the individual places their belief and faith. I'm using this particular definition of faith in Merriam Webster: "strong belief or trust in someone or something"

What I do have a problem with is fundamentalists who insist on taking their religious texts literally and reject any type of science that may differ from their narrow minded views.


I've always found it interesting that in the gospels, the pharisees interpreted the bible differently than Jesus because their literal viewpoint gave equal authority to the writings of men... to the point that they no longer knew what the scriptures said. When faced with a disingenuous question that was intended to trap him into a lose-lose answer based on the literal interpretation of the day:
Quote:
Matt 22:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.


In my opinion, this continues to be the case in discussions with people who are either unfamiliar with scripture, or whose training in scripture has been received at one of the many schools that pushes a humanismanistic interpretation of scripture. Or, for that matter, with people whose instruction in scripture was flawless, but they simply decided not to believe it.

Scott,
I agree that this is not the way to make a convincing argument.

However, we live at a time when it is more and more true that one point of view is promoted everywhere, while the other point of view is being silenced wherever possible. We're not far away from the time when the option of presenting an alternative point of view is no longer allowed.

As long as it is still allowed, I think its worth taking time to plant seeds. Its really all we can do.

Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
