I went to a Catholic school for my elementary years, and it was horrid. The things they tried to teach us were just out of the question,ridiculous. (I was baptized a Methodist when I was a baby, though).
I dont go to church now, I actually often only meditate and go on with my day. No praying, thanking the lord for my blessings,etc etc blah blah.
Anyways, I'm going to try and word this question as best as I can for Atheists:
Why can you wholeheartedly prove that there is absolutely no God in terms of science? What makes science so reputable?
Science is yet another thing conjured by humans just like yourselves. Humans who made things up, humans with "theories" and "hypotheses". Instead of putting your faith in something just because you haven't seen it, you are just putting your complete devotion into another human, who, indeniably, has been at fault at one point in his/her life. They were all children once, just like you. What makes their opinion as to whether something happened or not more valid than a Christian who uses God as a support system? Is it because they used scientific equipment to make a guess as to what something is, or has been?
It just doesn't make sense to me that an Atheist can put his entire faith into a human being. All human beings have,generally,the same mindset in terms of functionality and surviving in this world. That same scientist who was telling you that evolution is the key to our existence today could have just as easily been the person who told you a big invisible man in the sky created the population from nothing at all.
But because you cannot see said God, you deny it's existence. If a scientist told you that evolution was how we exist today, but only had a detailed description of why his theory is correct, a few collected ancient writings,and no physical proof of it,would you still believe him?
Now, I believe in evolution and all, but This was just a rant. I was just wondering what Atheists mindset was on that situation.
In summary(if you dont want to read all that):
Why do you put faith in human knowledge, which most definitely may be flawed since the same humans who invented science, invented religion, over faith in an omnipresent being?
