RE: How science has already proven that god does not exist.

in #philosophy8 years ago

The scientific method is not a dogma, it is only a methodology that science uses simply because it works and brings good practical results. The same for the claim that "no explanation for the natural world is supernatural" (methodological naturalism). None are dogmas.

Sort:  

I didn't say the scientific method is dogma. I was referring to the other things you were talking about. I don't believe the scientific method is dogma.

In fact I believe the scientific method is the only thing relevant to science, and the things it PROVES.

Scientific method is a tool. It ignores bias and opinions.

The rest of the things you were referring to as science are not. They were not determined by experimentation and using the scientific method. Instead they exist based upon belief and thus bias. Thus, why I call them dogma.

dwinblood, absolutely any conclusion or scientific methodology is based on experimentation and practical results, including the scientific method itself. If the scientific method did not bring practical results, it would have to be changed, or would become a scientific dogma. And that is precisely why the methodological materialism is not a dogma, it is a practical conclusion of science because it works.
