Hmmm,  Dad’s angry nasty angels are coming to the fore.

@Dad1   Too bad all  origin sciences is belief based and anything but known then eh?

“Belief Based”

It’s a perfect introduction into why it’s so important to openly grapple with

appreciating the Human Mindscape ~ Physical Reality divide.

Of course, Dad1 is correct, belief is at the core of being a functioning living creature, belief in this bed I just crawled out of, belief in the rising sun and this cup of coffee I’m sipping from.  Belief that my life matters and that my experiences are real and the accumulating knowledge I possess does a reasonable job of reflecting reality.

All we know comes through out bodies and processes its way into our mind.  The is not Body/Mind problem!  The mind is the inside of the body dealing with the physical reality we’re embedded within.

Science is about the physical world, it’s a method, a set of rules, that the human mind invented, to better understand the natural world around us.  It is indeed based on philosophical arguments and faith.  It’s people doing the best they can, and belief in certain fundamentals is a part of that.

Faith is a need driven from within our bodies navigating an uncertain world.  Religion is also an invention of humankind, much older, much more primal and personal, it’s all about ourselves and our needs needs and desires.

God is real, but god is a belief we created within ourselves, @Dad1 wants to believe he’s got something special from outside of Earth, that’s his belief.
