Theology is Falsifiable, thus, - Scientific.

Running tail tucked like you did is hilarious.

You even had the gall to claim it was all the other persons fault.
That you call ME the troll is even more icing on the cake.

If nothing else, you are a pretty sure bet for a good laugh.
Keep up the good work!

You do understand that I have to actually give a crickets fart about your opinion for your insults to actually be insulting, right?


I will give you the last word in this exchange.
Give me your best shot.
Mind the Forum Rules though.
I wont report you, but someone else may.

Then why are posting on a religious forum if you arent religous?

Nope.
People believed the sun revolved around the earth. People believed you could turn lead into gold. People believed lightning was hurled by Thor. People believed you could cure some diseases by bleeding the person.
When Columbus landed in the Americas, he thought he landed in India. Millions of people believed Hillary Clinton would win the last presidential election. They all believed things which were wrong.
Cosmological science also believed in several hundreds of years that the Newtonian "laws of celestial motions around a gravity center " was Universal - but they were wrong.

Because you protect a false definition of a thing. I don't agree with the definition of faith in God.

If your definition is not the Biblical definition, I would be interested in hearing it. Isn't the biblical definition of faith "believing with insufficient evidence"? I don't want to straw man you. I hope you clarify.

Isaac Newton’s theory on gravity is pioneering work.

Based on the current technology in Newton’s days, he could only understand a bit about gravity.

Was his theory limited and incomplete? Yes.

We have move beyond Newton’s original theory, with better understanding of gravity and we have better technology to make newer discovery.

Einstein expanded the theory of gravity with General Relativity (GR). Newton isn’t wrong that gravity and gravitational forces are related to the masses of objects. The more mass an object has, the higher gravitational fields and gravitational forces.

General Relativity is the current theory on gravity, and work very well on massive bodies, but it too is also incomplete. Physicists are working on the still theoretical Quantum Gravity and on Quantum Field Theory.

Theoretical physicists are trying to unify GR with Quantum Mechanics, since Einstein’s days. Einstein abandoned this unification project because he couldn’t find solutions, and though Quantum Mechanics is wrong.

Well, he was wrong. Quantum Mechanics worked very well...just well without gravity.

They were not wrong...but simply incomplete in understanding. Which Newtonian laws do you see as overturned?
"Wrong or incomplete in understanding" is the same to me in this matter. Scientists thought and believed that starry motions in galaxies were similar to the planetary motions in the Solar System: The nearer the Sun, the faster orbital motion - because of the gravitational thinking.

And now cosmological scientists BELIEVE in "dark matter" because they fail to recognize the fundamental causes of the motions.

Faith in God is knowing that God is true, or having a personal relationship with God.

Having faith does not actually require knowing something is true. It only requires believing something is true.

I would prefer to know something I believe is actually true.

By the way, you are using a definition of faith that the Bible itself does not use...........
