Re: Hello From Tasmania Australia
I'm not judging the truth of Buddhism, but a particular actor's behavour relative the role's teaching on sexual ethics.

Re: Philosophy of Science
Science can inform decision making. Decision making can be made by anyone.Right there! And when there is no such examination there is no possibility of democracy. That's what makes science an institution for democracy, that enhances democracy.

Re: Philosophy of Science
Nobody said science is beyond reproach. In fact, it viscerally attracts reproach, whether it likes it or not. That's what makes it good for democracy.

Re: Philosophy of Science
I am not talking Scientism, which refers to an ideology or junk science. No, I am talking about the science of research and discovery, a secular and open discipline.

Re: Philosophy of Science
Science put food on your table, as well as a roof over your head and cloths on your back. One can't say religion did that unless one is delusional. I don't think science did as much as you claim it did. Science has nothing to do with the distribution of the food or the clothing or the building of t...

Re: New Guy
It's a forum, we're meant to write lots of stuff!I'm sorry to write so much. I often feel the need to do so when I am asked to explain my position as an agnostic because people tend to assume that I have had little involvement with the Church when they first learn of my position.
