Re: does not compute
Would you please get something? SCIENCE IS NOT THE UNIVERSE.
Correct. Science studies the universe, that which is and was not created by us.
SCIENCE IS HUMAN INTELLECT.
FALLIBLE.
Granted and the same goes for religion, a fallible human understanding.
It is known to have been inspired by God Himself. It is not a mere human artifact. It does NOT have human ideas. The revelations in it are stratospherically above human ideas.
Yet humans thought of them in human languages, concepts, and social terms and communicated about these ideas and made laws and decisions based on them. It is a human artifact. Human mouths spoke the words, human hands wrote the scrolls, built the temples, served as priests or worshipers. Humans took part in the rituals. All these are human artifacts. The stars, planets, atoms, gravity, etc. all are non human things, they aren't artifacts. The Bible is clearly a human artifact. Whenever we find a scroll or bible is was clearly the result of human handiwork.
Quantum mechanics could be said to have discovered some of God's ideas and they are very different from human ideas, almost impossible for us to understand except for the functionality of mathematics.
