It came across as though you were laughing at the fact that we cannot eradicate suffering, or nullify disease.


When would an atheist say that "science is working on it" and in what context? In terms of attempts to cure things like cancer, aids, etc then it goes without saying that scientists are working on it. No-one would use 'science is working on it' as a cheap point for a secular, or anti-religious agenda because that would represent a confirmation bias and be blatantly anti-scientific.

Also, no, it is a good thing that we recognise that we need to work to get results and discover answers. I'm sorry you believe that being humble about one's place in the universe is something of a weakness. I do not.


Is it bigger than the Discovery Institutes list of scientists (mostly mathematicans or engineers) that dispute evolution?

Actually, my whole point was boastfulness and not being humble. An atheist is humble from which perspective? He is actually an arrogant man for believing that God does not exist because he has not seen him so. He uses the deficient method of scientific inquiry, because it needs to be worked on, to determine that God does not exist.
 
This new radical ecology is like going back to paganism. They are ready to risk people' life in order to save trees or animals. Thats from times when people prayed to tree or a mountain.

Wanting to protect the environment is not a Christian or a pagan or an atheist idea, it is a human idea, and a human obligation, I might add.

You connected the scientific practice of producing vaccines, researching antidotes for viruses and diseases based on humanitarian objectives of preventing suffering and saving millions of lives with atheism? Huh?

I think an atheist is about as humble as an individual who believes the entire universe was created for them by a being only interested in them.

He is actually an arrogant man for believing that God does not exist because he has not seen him so.

Even if that is true (which it isn't - go look up the two forms of atheism). How is that any less humble than claiming that there is a God in spite of not seeing him? How is that any less humble than claiming that the universe was created entirely for us by a being that cares about and is only in it for his vested interest in us?

He uses the deficient method of scientific inquiry, because it needs to be worked on, to determine that God does not exist.

Who does that? Since when has anyone of any credibility claimed that the scientific method, a secular practice somehow 'disproves' God?

Nobody does this. Why are you making things up about atheists?

Hot weather blamed for train derailment at Guar Chempedak

Published: Monday February 15, 2010 MYT 6:17:00 PM

GURUN: Hot weather has been blamed for the derailment of a goods train at KM58.75 near Kampung Guar station, Guar Chempedak Sunday.

Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) president Dr Aminuddin Adnan said the finding was made after an investigation was conducted on the derailment.

"We believe the heat caused the railway tracks to expand and bend before the train passed," he said when inspecting the repair work here Monday.

The train laden with rubber goods was travelling from Padang Besar to Butterworth when it jumped the rails at 4.48pm. - Bernama

In Java island, April or May is the beginning of dry season.

I think this difference is because you live at north of equator, and I live at south of equator.
