il,
i think i would differ in my characterization of the scientific method and its rammifications. i would say that the scientific method allows you to to determine if your interpretations of your perceptions are sufficiently close to your expectations based on an a-priori theory. in a sense, you never "prove" or "disprove" anything; you just make statements about the relative probability of hypothesis x being responsible or associated with phenomenon y. so while one can't make a scientific exploration to "disprove" god or gods, i think its reasonable to make scientific inquiries as to whether events described in various holy texts are more likely associated with the actions of god or gods, or by other phenemena and or theories. perhaps that's for another thread - i just keep seeing your post on that subject, and perhaps its just the wording that is causing me some bother. regardless, thanks for sticking with the threads.
