He talked about how he doesn't like people mixing politics and religion, but then he got into science (saying that bringing religion into science shouldn't be done). it was interesting and i wihs i had one of you there for commentary. see you saturday!

But then of course, let us neither bring atheism into it! (Since it has the same epistemological status, in relation to the sciences, as Christianity). Both are metaphysical worldviews which can <i>make sense</i> of science, i.e., spin science in a certain way, but neither are science's <i>sole</i> companion.

If you being any journey of scientific discovery with religious assumptions already taking precedence, it's not really science in my mind. I'm not of the opinion that any religious belief (atheism included) can be "proven" by science. Also, people who ignore science because they fear it contradicts their religion... really bother and scare me. yay for beering.
