    Atheists don't like the idea of a laissez-faire God....

    If the God is Laissez Faire.. then what exactly are you hoping for? That's not what the Big Bang theory says, firstly. Secondly, you can claim that they both have equal likelihood for being the actual cause of the universe, but that claim isn't actually being evidenced by anything.

    Atheists don't like the idea of a laissez-faire God....

    Why would anyone care if there is a laissez faire god? You mine as well have no god... there would be no difference, and no distinction of value. Also, you'd still be in the same position of insisting something is there without any evidence of it actually being the case.

    Unscientific, Secularist Cosmology: Everything from Nothing! Not!

    No. It's just a observable phenomenon where matter and anti-matter pairs are created in vacuums from noting at all. I.E. matter from nothing. It's hard to follow the rest of the OP because the first premise is an inaccurate one. To account for the creation of the universe, one would have to go...

    Human-Made Molecular Machines

    Getting closer everyday to how cells operate and perform the most basic functions on the molecular level, and how organic matter may have arisen from inorganic matter. Here are some molecular machines that just won some people a Nobel Peace Prize:

    Would You Expect an Exceptionally Wise Person to Know They Were Exceptionally Wise?

    I got no time for this! I have experiments to conduct and quandaries to philosophize!

    Unscientific, Secularist Cosmology: Everything from Nothing! Not!

    In quantum physics, a quantum fluctuation (or quantum vacuum fluctuation or vacuum fluctuation) is the temporary change in the amount of energy in a point in space,[1] as explained in Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle... This allows the creation of particle-antiparticle pairs of virtual...

    Would You Expect an Exceptionally Wise Person to Know They Were Exceptionally Wise?

    An exceptionally wise person might be more concerned with more pressing matters. ;)

    Economics of Brexit and Personal Finance

    Well, how is it? Besides pissing off the Scots and the Irish, I hear it's not that bad. FTSE 100 has been down, but those are mostly international companies. FTSE 250 is still recovering, but it could be worse. Saw that consumer confidence was still up, although business confidence was down. I...

    Any Defenses of Materialism?

    "One of the most exciting areas of study in modern neuroscience is the ability to use noninvasive techniques to study the activation of brain regions during controlled behavioral and thought experiments. The fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging), PET (positron emission tomography), and EP...

    Does Russia now respect free speech more than the West?

    Apparently free speech now extends to private entities firing whomever they like for whatever reason.

    Evolution, testability and scientific dogma

    They just finished Season 6. It understandable that it's hard to keep up since they'll go 2-3 years between seasons.

    A peculiar season. Love where it went. Curious as to how it will proceed. Just for you.

    Evolution, testability and scientific dogma

    I don't agree, necessarily, either. I just think the article linked in the OP seems to extrapolating something from Poppler which was not intended, or from some point in his life as his views on knowledge and science changed over his career. A fishy starting point to begin with...

    Your Most Anticipated Games of 2016

    Verifiable evidence for creationism?

    Scientists usually don't accept claims for which the data doesn't back it up. "Creationist literature claims that sufficient gaps in morphological continuity exist to classify dinosaurs into several distinct baramins (‘created kinds’). Here, I apply the baraminological method called taxon...

    Evolution, testability and scientific dogma

    "Every conceivable observation can be fitted into it." Seems a bit of stretch. Even for 1967. "Indeed, the recent vogue of historicism might be regarded as merely part of the vogue of evolutionism—a philosophy that owes its influence largely to the somewhat sensational clash between a...

    What political/economic system promotes religious freedom?

    Religious freedom is a form of soft power over populations, since it's significantly easier to rule people by other means than dictating what nonsense they should believe in. History demonstrates from Genghis Khan to America to Early Muslim societies that it's significantly easier to just rule...
