God vs Science

Today, I encountered the most extreme verbal argument between the atheists and monotheists in my class. Yeah, it was exciting, but with everything in considerations, I think the atheists view of life is, although more pointless, it is generally more open to wisdom. The monotheists views, even though more closed to new concepts, is more "secure" and blissful. Having the support of an entire community and some sort of reliance in talking to the sky made them feel like they were always in the right even though the facts that were presented contradicted them.

One of the theories that was presented by the monotheist was that God was like the wind, you can't see it, but its there. And he tried explaining that God wasn't something you could see, but you could feel. The atheist argued that science was like colored smoke or gas, when you spray it onto the wind, it revealed everything true.

In the second argument, a monotheist said that science was false. He said that we all are controlled by God, because it is impossible for cells to work together so flawlessly and for the mind to bare thought. In other words, that we all had a soul. I didn't want to argue as I didn't think it was my place to disprove what they had believed, or thought to believe all their lives. But the argument of the soul is very unbalanced. Take this example. When someone says we all have a soul, they say it without proof, just theories and do not make room for arguing semantics. But when science wants to know if there is a soul, and finds evidence that there isn't such a thing, the believer says science is false, it has no right to question the work of God, and ignores evidence completely. Well referring to the whole process of cells working together flawlessly and thought forming in the mind is not easy to explain. But
1) our cells don't work together flawlessly, just 1 mistake can lead to cancer and stuff
2) our minds are more complex than any other living organ in our body or in any being known to us.
3)gray matter is proven to be real, we're all still waiting on proof of the soul.

3rd argument was, if science can make a human perfect and just about explain everything, how come there are still babies born retarded, homosexuals and other flaws in humans? Why can't science with all its "might" cure our ails? They argued that if something happened, it was Gods will, and humans shouldn't fight it or question it. Just accept it. This got me a bit angry really. But I still didn't say much. Most of what I said was in defense not offense. Because it ain't nice to be saying bad things about what other people believe in. Whether its a football team, or a religion or a way of life like being vegetarian, its just how they want to live. But I really need to give an example of why science can't explain everything.

1)Science isn't a Holy book that you cannot question. In that way, even though the complete truth is still hidden, every now and then modifications are made when new evidence is found.

2)Science depends on the one thing left in humans that is undergoing evolution in every new generation of thinkers : our brain.
Just like if I give a villager a computer, first he would probably use it and stuff, get around the controls and stuff. If that pc still survives, his young would probably try dismantling it, and slowly through generations of villagers who know nothing of computers, they will ultimately devise tools to study the property in which computers are made of like plastics and stuff.

That would represent science. The villagers represent the unknowing human race at first, then slowly going through evolution of the mind. And the computer would probably be life, or the universe we live in. slowly we get to know more of it. Slowly it seems less Godlike and more...explainable.

3)Science can't make sure 6 billion people on earth are satisfied with their offspring. In fact most of the world is to afraid to implement science in reproduction. I am too. But its all a matter of time. Its happening as we speak, the "perfect" humans are being created to be sports athletes in China, which is getting criticism from religious groups.

So there you have it. I cannot take sides in any argument on this blog. All I seek is opinions on matters that have no proof. Like in this post. But I have to say, its all in a matter of time before science finds the ultimate truth, or multiple truths whichever it may be, and eventually lead to end of the world. Because with everything science creates, it has the seeds of destruction deep inside it.....like in plastic....

And I meant no offense to anyone in this post....
