Of course, such a viewpoint would be considered heretical and get you talked about.
On the way to getting burned at the stake? |

I'm an atheist.
But the little Blooder is right.
You can believe what you want, but that don't change science. |

Nicoletta Mithra wrote:The dogmas, by the way, are in fact not changing. (Doctrines are, though.) But they aren't all saying "Do not do the thing, go do the other thing.", either. Central dogmas are things like "The universe is ordered and thus accessible to systematic study." Actually, one could summarize most of the body of dogma thusly:
- There is order in the cosmos: This order shows itself in the laws of nature as well as in an ethical law. Both are to be discovered.
- There is a source of the cosmos and its order: God.
Those propositions aren't scientific facts - at least not in the narrow sense of 'science' which should be properly qualified as 'natural science' - but the dogmas are in fact: Facts.
Ok, hold it right there. I think I see where the disconnect is.
Scope puts out a thing, says Amarr peeps say mixing religion is bad.
Blooder points out how close the two faiths are.
Panties get twisted.
Blooder points out history, and quotes almost verbatim from what I can access from my computer.
More panties get twisted because he's a Blooder.
Blooder gets sand in his panties because Amarr aren't nice to other faiths and shows more history to prove it.
Amarr puts steel wool down their shorts to disprove anything Blooder says because he's a Blooder.
Blooder gives Amarr the finger and goes off to be with other Blooders.
I think both sides are thinking with their holy books and not with their brains.
Not to disparage the many actual scientific accomplishments of the Amarr, but I think when you start using dogma to define science, you're setting yourself up for failure because you can't accept new ideas and modalities that go against dogma (or scripture, or philosophy or what have you). Not easily anyway.
And I don't think it's nice for people who keep slaves to be moralizing on anyone.

Ok, look.
Yay for you for having a sky god or a blood god or a whatever god.
But take gods or dogma or scripture or litle green men out of the equation and you still have science.
Ok. You don't need religion to have science and if this thread proves one thing is that if it's love or science, dogma is totally a third wheel.
Good luck!

That is one way to look at it. Personally I find any decent conversation will ramble around & touch on many different topics. Unless the original poster says otherwise I can't see why further discussion here is wrong.
I think we got off on a big tangent when we started straying into the science vs religion thing. Which is really a bullets vs lasers thing.
Mixed religions marrying? Not for me to say when it comes to the Amarr. But it seems kinda stupid to say two or more people can't marry. The only people who should have a say in marriage are the ones getting married, right?
