If you happen to be the type of person who derisively dismisses any claim you believe hasn't been scientifically "proven", how do you justify this?

I've come across quite a few people here on GAG who ask questions in the 'Religion/Spirituality' section with no real desire to be fair, impartial or sincere in their desire for answers. When people whose opinions they don't agree with respond, they usually respond in turn with cynicism, sarcasm and even outright insults. I'm often left wondering why they even bother, because they're clearly not interested in being open to the possibility of being wrong and having to change their mind in response to new information.

People need to understand that science we know has not covered everything. In fact, there are even things we don't know we don't know.

Some things are better left alone. No need to have a 'verified' scientific tag on everything.

They're interested in making you believe what they believe and definitely don't care one iota what you or anyone else thinks.

Thanks for the MHO

the earth is flat

[Snsl153]

Very funny :P

[NathanDavis]

lol... Australia ain't real either

[Snsl153]

The United States isn't real, because such an utterly dysfunctional society simply isn't possible.

Epstein didn't kill himself

[Snsl153]

What does Epstein have to do with the fact the Earth is spherical?

[NathanDavis]

That quote is bullshit. Science is a neurotic exercise. It is looking for a black cat in a black room and there might not even be a cat in the room. Science alonr is a poor yardstick for investigation as it is subject to bias and error.

[Snsl153]

Wrong. Science is self-correcting, it has a built-in ability to correct mistakes, bias and fraud, something that nothing else has.

[Guy13]

If Science is self-correcting then why is there disability and variance? And if there are those things or “states of being” which state is scientifically accurate or corrected. And, what measurements are you using to make those judgments please?
Fallen can not self-correct into purity. It is lunacy to assert that it does in my view.
