[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5313057, member: 24302"] And I think you assume too much. Our religious beliefs work in concert with science and the natural world. We want to understand how things work and learn from them. Take medicine. Medicine isn't just conjured up in a lab. Most medicines are derived from studying compounds found in nature, especially from plants. But we typically disagree on how man arrived at the state he's in. We don't think the intracacies of many different systems working together in the human body happened by random chance. We see intelligent design. Who exactly designed us can be debated. But you so adamantly want to shut the idea of a superior being out of consideration that you'll entertain anything else. Because ultimately you believe you are God. That humans are the highest form of existence. And can't deal with competition for our attention. [/QUOTE]
