We're Doomed

The thing is, no matter what this experiment does, it still won't discredit creationists. Though I sense some sarcasm in Jason's post, its hard to really tell on the internet sometimes.

I have no problem with the experiment, other than the fact that it has the potential to endanger the planet. I'm no scientist, but if you have to question the safety of it that much, it is better left on paper. Or maybe they should try it somewhere in outer space.

This experiment will do absolutely nothing in the way of discrediting Creationism nor is that the goal of this experiment or science in general. Overzealous atheists act like every scientific finding discredits the notion of God, but as I pointed out above, faith is untestable by nature. We are simply observing our surroundings. For me, faith answers the "why." Science answers the "how." We can observe how light works but we cannot know why it works. Why are there photons in our universe? We arrive at a splitting point: we can say, photons exist because they just do, or, we can say, photons exist because there is some meaning to the universe such as a divine creator. Either way, we cannot test the "why." We can only observe the "how."

Dangerous according to who? As it has already been stated, there are numerous already functioning particle accelerators. Also, the top scientists are backing this project and vouching that it will not destroy our planet. I would discredit the media without any hesitation and be wary of the "critics."

I agree with you.

No matter what science discovers or creates, it'd all be done from using materieals that have been placed there for them to use. From what I've seen, the more "truth" science brings about, the more likely it seems that something did create us.

I stated clearly I'm no scientist. But its potentialy dangerous according to the articles I've read on it. Al I have to go off of. lol

I wonder when people will realize that NOTHING the scientific community can do will discredit creationism as it is based on FAITH, and not science.

There is no point in arguing the matter.

Back on topic!

The first test passed, and we're still here. So far so good. I'm still preparing myself for the inevitable Dahlek invasion...
