I never understood why people claim to not have "faith" in Science. Science doesn't want anyone's faith. It wants facts, it wants proof, it wants repeatability.

Religion and Science should not be in conflict. Science gives us powerful tools to explain the Universe, but cannot explain what cannot be observed. If you believe in a higher power, there is plenty of room for that higher power to operate outside of what Science can tell us.

People who claim to not have "faith" in Science are just ignorant. Science will keep going, though, no matter what they believe.

"and he will put to ruin those ruining the earth"

• actual bible quote

If they could read, they would be very upset

I wish global warming wasn't global.

Remember that time Jesus said fuck the planet, and also fuck your neighbor over? Peppridge Farm remembers

“I sent two row boats and a helicopter for you…”

When she stands in her front lawn in Minnesota and waves her arms, waiting for Jebus to carry her to Washington (because aircraft=science=bad), we know who to follow.

Our leaders are so fucking stupid.

Another drooler who doesn't understand what science is.

This is the behavior why I think that religion should, and one day will be classified as a mental illness

Fuck the Guardians Of Pedophiles.

Some people do be telling on themselves.

Goddamn death cult

What the hell does Jesus have to do with climate change?

A Minnesota Republican lawmaker has dismissed climate change concerns by declaring that her faith is in Jesus Christ rather than scientists. Rep Mary Franson, a long-serving member of the Minnesota House, made the comments during a committee hearing last week.

Mary Franson is not fit to hold office and should be removed.

Do they realize that without the foundation of science, there aren't any advances in engineering? I'd love to see all MAGAs required to live like the Amish. Put your money where your mouth is.

That's like saying "I'm putting all my money into crypto-currency".

Why don't you listen to the voices in my head, why don't you have voices in your head, why are you telling me to pay attention to results of experiments and recorded experiences instead of the voices inside the head of pre-print peoples?

Remember it's not just faith, it's the "right" faith. Tell them that their faith is in the Allah and watch them freak out.

Religion is a cancer, and I'm so fucking tired of the apologetics from my fellow leftists on it.

"Ignorance is bliss" People, not all but many, want religion because it teaches them all they have to do is believe and pray to a God and everything will be well. That even when things are bad, that they just need to roll with it because there is a plan that they are part of and they should not lose faith. That is all and it is simple. It also gives certain groups, genders, ethnicities power over others, which makes them feel special and entitled.

When you start to give a person with this kind of faith facts and logic that is contrary to what they have been told it angers them because it scares them. It angers them because it tells them they aren't entitled and they cant keep on with their actions because there will be consequences. They like propaganda that says "all is well, dont listen to those scary fake facts." This comforts them.

Those people want to stay feeling entitled, believing they are special, that their actions cause no harm, and stay in blissfull ignorance.

Science is not faith based. It is empirical and truths can be observed and proven. Yes there are hypothesis yet to be proven, but they are based on facts that suggest they may be true. Religions simply require faith with no proof what you are believing in is true.

Science will not dispell any spirtuality there is in the universe but it will eventually tear down most religions. We are very likely not the only living organisms in the universe, yet most religions depict Gods that resemble us. This is as bad as thinking the Earth is the center of the solar system, which is why it was considered blasphemous when the idea was first introduced that it was not.

And how do you think Jesus would handle climate change from Heaven?

Maybe...by encouraging human beings to solve the problem that humans created? The one thing she refuses to do?

Okay[^1], but did JC got animated again to tell you Climate Change is a hoax?

[^1]: Not actually okay

Another reason why the US is in rapid decline. Luckily now all the other nations in the world are hiring all the scientists. After 4 years of this regime and that whale fucker in charge of the department of health, there will be a completely different dogma to the real science.

Blind faith is a mental illness.

You know that parable about the pastor on the church roof during a flood and ignoring all help because god would save him until he dies and god is like wtf did you turn away all my help...

Works really well with climate change too and us ignoring all his help to help prevent the catastrophe it is/will cause.

Faith that those cheques from the oil industry will keep arriving.

Sounds like these lawmakers should be forced to dismiss gravity concerns right until they can't.

The good thing about science is that it doesn't require faith.

This idiot should never be allowed a position of responsibility. He'll do what the voices in his head tell him to do, not what's proven to be effective.

People like that should be disqualified from any position of power.

Yeah let's believe the people who have been consistently wrong for millennia over the ones that have been provably right countless times.

God is punishing us for burning oil. 😐

Don't trust anyone who believes (non bird) dinosaurs and humans existed at the same time.

Ok if there is a sky daddy what do you think he's gonna do when he sees what you did to his creation.

This is why I’m not just atheist, but antitheist. Allowing adults to retain childish beliefs in society leads to them making decisions based on obvious falsehoods that affect the rest of us. Religious people should be subject to disdainful ridicule in society, as they persist in childish beliefs to the detriment of the world.
