26. Comment #161225 by Artful_Dodger -

So keeping God out of the picture (equation), in that sense, may make a lot of sense. That is why the agenda to KILL religous faith as a "scientific" project does not make sense, because it is science's role to explore the cosmos, not speculate as to the identity or non identity of its hpothetical originator.

Most people instinctively know that science and faith are not incompatible with each other, unless they have been hoodwinked into thinking they are either by religious fundamentalists on the one side or by the likes of Dawkins and his cohorts on the other.

You commentators here are being very naive: you cannot judge another culture from your own culture's perspective.

'Human rights' is just a western notion that, like 'God', cannot be proven.

In other words, you're all acting like frenzied religious nutcases pushing your unjustified perspective on others.

One man is purported to have said, 'Judge not, lest yea be judged'. It is one of the things I agree with the original speaker on - but don't always practice - but agree with in principle. (Without the religious connotations, of course).

Absolutely agree. It's that people are prone to equate engineer with mechanic. And mechanics use engineering priciples to fix things, so - in effect - they're another branch of applied science. I'll rely on my garage's mechanicsfor advice on the car, because, well, they damn well know what they're talking about. I've known car designers I wouldn't let anywhere near a sump for fear of what they'd do...

We digress. The real purpose of this post was to - at Vaal's implicit request - pronounce judgement upon the festering dung-pile known as kjmastaw.

Verdict: Guilty of perverting the course of Natural Selection.

I'm not entirely sure. I think that for some their god (or) gods give them a moral 'benchmark' to follow. However, some of the moral ones decide what the benchmark is on the grounds that you can pretty much make a case for any kind of behaviour as a theist - so they choose the 'best bits' and interpret the rest as, well, it was different in those days...
