  • Finding God.
  • Finding the cause of creation.
My question to science is.. what’s the difference between ?

If there’s NO difference.
Than my question is.. does science believe in God ?
The cause of the universe maybe a natural law. Or universe could be eternal. There is no necessity for science to posit a God without evidence for one.

What's the difference?
1. Finding God.
2. Finding Cthulu.
3. Finding the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

4. Finding the cause of the universe.
5. Finding the cause of continental drift.
4. Finding the cause of the accelerating expansion of the universe.

You seem to think Goddidit is an explanation. You seem to think there's a God to find. You seem to think the universe has a magical, intentional cause.
You seem to have an agenda here.

Then, tell the difference between finding cause of creation vs finding God.
That's a false question. You are God smuggling. Calling it a creation falsely assumes that there is a god to do the creating. It is a universe.

NOT asking how science works.

My question is .. how science works differently on these two aspects ?

  • Finding God
  • Finding cause of creation
Science is not looking for God. If science found God, it would still not explain the cause of the universe.

1. Finding God. - Insanely evil
2. Finding Cthulu. - Insanely noodly
3. Finding the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Hilariously noodly

Yes, but this is MY question NOT yours :)

Finding God is not the job of science. It's not what science does. It has nothing to do with science.

You seem to think there's some relationship between finding God and finding the cause of creation. I don't see any. They're completely different.

This is nowhere written in science.

evidence ? :)
My evidence is that finding God is "nowhere written in science." Neither is finding the Flying Spaghetti Monster or finding the Easter Bunny.
You don't seem to understand what science is or does.

Finding God has nothing to do with science.

I provided an answer. Science does not believe in God as it does not need to.

Yes, excess of anything is bad and takes one to wrong direction.
I was being flippant. But if you want to speak seriously, I would consider the standard helping of the classic forms of any of the gods to be bad. Of course that is irrelevant to the question of whether a thinking agent created the universe, has relations with humans, and pays attention to how and with whom I use my penis.

I asked the difference between, NOT what science believe in, or not.

As Valjean said...

Just because you can grammatically construct a question in English does not make the question semantically coherent. You may as well be asking, "How many is blue?"

Why NOT ask this question to scientists who are finding the root cause (the very first penis) of creation ?

Yes, that’s my question too.

Mare saying they’re different doesn’t make different. Explain please.

Because I don't see any creation.

There are only scientists attempting to investigate mathematical models to one day determine a) if the universe started, b) how it started (assuming that it did), and c) how to test the model against reality. Until they find a way to test the model against reality, their models are only of idle interest

That because science is ashamed to tell the difference between finding God vs finding the cause of creation.
WHAT!!!??? Ashamed?! What are you talking about? Ashamed of what?

Science has nothing to do with God. It doesn't think about God. The subject never comes up. Science couldn't care less about God.

What is this obsession with connecting Faith and science? Do you think science is some sort of competing religion? Do you think it's intentionally in conflict with religion, competing with it?

Science investigates evidenced phenomena. It does not investigate God, or Quetzalcoatl. or Santa Clause.

Valjean said.

This is off-topic.[/QUOTE]No, it's not. It's completely analogous.
