Now that we seem to finally peeling the cold, dead hands of religion away from Science (see Obama Aims to Shield Science From Politics), I have a suggestion.
Let’s apply science to religion for a while and see what we find out.
- Water to wine? Fail.
- Bread to flesh? Fail.
- Tongues? No – Gibberish. Fail.
- Voodoo Dolls? Fail.
- Jihad? No, suicide silly. Fail.
- Shabbas goy? Jeeze… Fail.
- No work on Shabbas? Instead, the elevator stops itself? Fail.
Turns out that most religious bullsh*t doesn’t stand the test of science any better than science stands the test of religion. But…
- If I want to get to the moon next week, I’m voting for science.
- If I want my cancer cured, I’m voting for science.
- If I want to win a war, I’m voting for science.
- If I want someone to read this post, I’m voting for science.
Me, I’ll put my faith in something that shows results, not something that shows intolerance, stupidity and lies.
Science Wins.
