Scientific knowledge is reducible to a singular reality... a singular essence. Hence, a singular law (of physics) applying to all existence.
The only difference between a scientist and a theist, is that a theist states that this reality is God, and a scientist states that he doesn't know what that reality is.

The interesting thing is that they are both saying exactly the same thing except that the theist is calling his ignorance God and worshiping it.

So, everybody is ignorant of the truth, is an absolute truth?
Wakey wakey.
Scientists don't know what reality is. Theists claim that 'God' is reality. And some theists claim to know that God is reality.
So the difference between a theist and a scientist is more marked than you mention. Not all theists base their acknowledgement of a God upon need or fear. Another dispelled myth.

Yes they do. Of course you can claim to know pretty much anything as long as you don't have to provide any kind of proof to back it up. I don't find that kind of "knowledge" particularly compelling.

Don't you mean "Another straw man burned?" I made no assertion about either need or fear. I don't really claim to know what precisely compels some people to invent answers to questions they can't answer. Fear and need are only a few of the possible motives.

I dunno about electrons, but after a few beers I can write his name in the snow.

All kinds of philosophers = rational people, have been reasoning the case for the existence of God since the time of the ancient Greeks. Notably, philosophers, even amidst these "modern" times, still reason for the existence of that entity.
Those of you besmirching the existence of this entity amongst such "modern times" have been fooled or are afraid (of God).

Take care brothers.

Nope, Science is still working on a Grand Unified Theory (or Theory of Everything). Until we figure out the mysteries of Gravity, we wont have our singular Law of Physics just yet...

Edit to add: Minor booboo on my part. Theories of Everything must be distinguishable from Grand Unified Theories. Theories of Everything try to unite all 4 fundamental forces, Grand Unified Theories try to unite all the fundamental forces except gravity. Unified Field Theories (which unite electromagnetic and weak nuclear force into electroweak force) have already been established. Sorry for any confusion...

Take care brothers. Other philosophers have made the case against...have you read any of them? You really ought, you know...

No finite material entity can be held responsible for the whole of creation. The simplest reason has evaded modern man, en masse. But not forever. Certainly not this day.
I wish you well people. And I am not talking about your bodies.
Take care.

Believe me, I (Yahweh) am afraid of no god(s).

To be unafraid of omnipotence whilst unaccepting of omnipresence, is omnidumbness. Enjoy your splash upon the beach. It means nothing to the ocean. But everything to the wave.

To understand all in one, refute the rest but rely upon the same proof for all.

If god is omni present and omni potent then I have no need to fear god for god made me the way that I am and revels in my life.

Enjoy your glass of beer, it makes no differenece to the cake, but is all the meaning the ouke has.

Somehow I get the impression that you don't know reality from the back of your hand...

I come across skeptical philosophy on a daily basis. The point I make, is that there is serious reason to think a God exists. Halfwits who crack jokes all the time at God's expense, do so by unveiling their own ignorance.

Certainly, serious attempts at proving the existence of god have been made. I have read many. My point was that serious attempts at explaining the world without the existence of god have also been made. If you had read any, my next question would have been about your reactions to them. Instead, you unveil your own ignorance. Bummer, actually.

Perhaps lifegazer would share these "serious reason[s]" with us, so we will not be so ignorant. I was raised Baptist (oy), and have looked at religion from many perspectives over my 36 (oy) years. And all of them end up being intellectually circular: you have to believe (or want to believe) in the first place, or it just doesn't work. "Reason" has nothing to do with it.

Science, on the other hand, requires evidence and proof, all of which is open to revision based on better evidence.

You know, Lifegazer, that struck me really oddly. I wasn't sure why. Then it hit me. Someone, somewhere (sometime!) had a web page that generated random "profound sounding" statements, with zero meaning (barring an extraordinary coincidence.) That sounded an awful lot like that.

Wasn't me. I've never had a website.
The meaning of this is there for those who sincerely look.

Again, perhaps you'd like to explain, since no one else understood. If I accept neither omnipotence nor omnipresence, then why should I be afraid of either? I don't go about my life fearing the nonexistent. In fact, this is one of the first lessons we must teach a child -- there's nothing in the closet, there's nothing under the bed, there's nothing to be afraid of, now GO TO SLEEP.

Hey, lifegazer, when you can snatch the pebbles from my hand, it will be time for you to leave.
