Nobody has ever seen them, but if one day they show up science will deal with them. Science can't rule out facts or phenomenons, only incorrect explanations about them.
Then again, that's why science can't rule out God. It's a methodological problem.
And here you're saying both religion and philosophy are absolutely absurd.
The Occam's razor is not irrefutable and doesn't dispense scientific evidence. It's a method normally used to help develop theoretical models and that's it. It doesn't really prove anything, much less the existence or non-existence of god.
What people believe is really their problem, science has nothing to do with it. That's why science haven't said a word about unicorns, the tooth fairy and Santa.
- Kurtni:
- So is someone who thinks unicorns are real just as sane as someone who thinks they're not? We don't have any evidence to prove they aren't real, along with Santa and the tooth fairy....

Science doesn't work with beliefs anyway, I don't know why are you mixing both here.
- Kurtni:
- I think it's very unscientific to believe in something without evidence. There is no evidence for God, thus no reason to believe. This applies to all ideas in science.
And here you're saying both religion and philosophy are absolutely absurd.
Only because we have an hyphotesis saying god didn't do anything to create the Universe (and unfortunately we still don't have anything else than hypothesis in this area), it doesn't mean this is the right one or that it is 100% correct.
- Kurtni:
- And I disagree that science doesn't disprove, or at the very least discredit, the possibility of God, at least the God of major religions. We know how the universe was created, how evolution began and progressed... and we know God had nothing to do with it. It's all explainable without a God.
