But science doesn't claim to have all the answers. Science is simply a form of investigation that allows us to make sense of the natural world. Science rests on evidence for assertions unlike religion. Faith is belief without evidence something that science NEVER claims. In the abscence of evidence to interpret, science doesn't make an assertion either way.


See the difference now?

Hey Fogey, why don't you start a petition to have religion removed from MMA. I mean what in GODs name are these fighters thinking by shoving their religious rhetoric down our throats??! Perhaps the ACLU and a few other organizations will back your plight.

Faith is subjective and just because it doesn't make sense to you, doesn't mean it can't mean something to someone else. You also don't need to belong to a religion to believe in God.
Perfectly put

Very ignorant post... Love is something created by people, its just a word, you can't prove there even is love because we made it up. It does prove why serial killers kill, it can determine if something is or is not alive....i could go on....

What the fuck has religion ever given me? Except an empty and unproveable philosophy based on human weakness? SCIENCE has given you everything that our current civilization has. EVERYTHING.

In short, science is why humans are where we are, NOT religion! LOL!
owned
of all the places to complain that science is bogus, i think the INTERNET is possibly the most foolish.

So you can't bash him as a fighter now,so I guess you'll move on to his faith???

His faith is his buisness.

Now stop typing bitches.
