It was the thinking of the ancient world, Hans. Obviously, scientific reductionists and those adhering to scientism think that Occam solved the problem.
I tend to think that accepting anything without evidence leans heavily towards insanity,
Speaking of applying science, what do you think when academians expect us to come up with physical evidence of an act of creatio ex nihilo?
Or, put another way, want physical evidence of a miracle?
Speaking of... I don't really care.
How convenient.
It keeps them from asking you for evidence, doesn't it?
What do you mean by contradicting the bible though? Under a completely literal interpretation?My Boolean Standards: *
1. Bible says x, Science says x = go with x
2. Bible says x, Science says y = go with x
3. Bible says x, Science says ø = go with x
4. Bible says ø, Science says x = go with x
5. Bible says ø, Science says ø = free to speculate on your own
Prime Directive: Under no circumstances whatsoever is the Bible to be contradicted.
* I'd hate to disappoint Warden.
I didn't say anything about science I jusst pointed out that when you said the law of supply and demand was a principle of academics its not its an economic rule which sure is a social science but what are you getting at?Just so you know, from AI Overview:
The law of supply and demand is a fundamental principle in economics that describes how prices are determined in a market.
Economics is a social science ...
Science expects to explain everything it is able to rather than making things up. What do you even mean by "academians" anyway? I don't know any science that claims "an act of creatio ex nihilo" in fact a law of science (first law of thermodynamics) is "Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another." directly contradicting the idea of "an act of creatio ex nihilo".Speaking of applying science, what do you think when academians expect us to come up with physical evidence of an act of creatio ex nihilo?

I'm not the one making claims.

And that's just the beginning.You're pretty new so here's the rundown on AV's 'logic': anything related to his twisted personal view of academia, i.e. anything that runs counter to his own personal and very strange interpretation of the Bible = BAD.
I also put 'logic' in quotes because he has no logic whatsoever for what he says. Just wait until he brings up thalidomide, the Challenger disaster, the L'Aquila earthquake, the Titanic disaster and the Hindedenburg disaster as his 'proofs' about 'academia' and 'scientists' being at fault for anything and everything.
I know.
You don't care enough to make any.
And I suspect it's because you fear having to go through what I go through.
But I'm not afraid.
And it's because I have [boolean] standards I adhere to.
And again, I suspect your standards are the same as your inquisitors; viz. the scientific method.
Correct me if I'm wrong please.
(Either that, or just say NO, like you're wont to do at times.)
Depends on what you mean by love, but I would argue that we can observe the effects of love on things and thus prove that it exists (repeatedly). The reason this differs from God's existance by viewing the works of Christians is that it proves that people believe in God is a true fact just as it can be proven people feel love but it doesn't say anything about whether God exists.Including such things as love?

I'm sure they do make claims, just not about what they don't know. Such as how it would be foolish of me to guess your height and assert that it must be right and that anyone who says they don't know what your height is is afraid and won't make claims.I know.
