Title:
radical religious believes V.S. Pure rationality and science

Description:
This is a section of An Arab-American Psycologist, Wafa Sultan on Al Jazeera TV, Feburary 21, 2006. In the new century, the conflict in the Middle East is still in shaky ground. Palestinians' water, land are controlled, roads are guarded by Israel troop's checking points for the control the transportation of Palestinians. USA government still doggly supports Israel government, which has been surpressing Palestinians, who explodes car bombs and suicide bombs to kill Israel citizens in return. In West Africa the gap of the poor and the rich has worsened under the so-called democatic leadership. These happpen, because radicals religius ideas appeals to the public, has become the reflection of social and economical problems in these society, when government corrupts, when the gap between the rich and the poor has been intoleable, when a country is in financial ruin, or when the new cultural values have been forced to replace the old ones, and many more scenarios. This video also questions the necessity of religion, which has been a part of cultures since the beginning of mankind. When does relgion become a cultural lag? What's its function of religion today? Do most of the people really have the willpower to establish their own moral principles without religion? Are women surpressed in the name of religion? How to interpret relgiious doctrine? Figuratively or literally? Should democracy be imposed or encouraged? What's good about domocracy when your own survival is in danger?

Fibonacci number, From Wikipedia : In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of numbers named after Leonardo of Pisa, known as Fibonacci. Fibonacci's 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been previously described in Indian mathematics. The first number of the sequence is 0, the second number is 1, and each subsequent number is equal to the sum of the previous two numbers of the sequence itself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_Sequence ___________________________________________ "Have you really thought about some of the evidences for God? Or, are you presupposing a purely naturalistic world, and closing your eyes to some of the possible evidence? If I propose some observational evidence, are you even open to examining it?" So, here's my attempt at some basic scientific observations that point to God: * Causation. God provides the best explanation for the existence of the universe and all that's in it. (The alternative theory is that "nothing" exploded and resulted in everything that we see.) * Order. God provides the best explanation for abstract notions such as numbers, mathematical formulae, chemical-based processes, and natural laws. (The alternative theory is that the chaotic first elements ordered themselves into complex information systems.) * Design. God provides the best explanation for the absolute complexity inherent in cosmological, stellar, planetary, chemical and biological systems. (The alternative theory is that random chance engineered apparent design.) * Encoded Instructions. God provides the best explanation for the digital DNA code contained in and controlling the functions of all life on earth. (The alternative theory is that complex code, such as binary code running computers, can pop into existence without any kind of programming, testing and debugging process.) * Irreducible Complexity. God provides the best explanation for fully functioning biological organisms, systems, and subsystems that couldn't come about through gradual evolutionary process without totally ceasing to exist at lower, evolutionary levels. (The alternative theory is that biological systems took huge, unseen leaps from simple to complex without any guided process or forward-looking instructions.) * Duality. God provides the best explanation for the separate human functions of brain and conscience (matter and mind). (The alternative theory is monism -- only matter exists and the human brain only appears to have a separate subconscious ability.) * Morality. God provides the best explanation for the existence of love, emotion, altruism, and inherent moral/ethical values throughout the world. (The alternative theory is that unguided materialistic processes evolve higher human consciousness.) Does God Exist -- A Scientific Conclusion When it comes to the question of "Does God Exist," there are only two scientific world views -- Someone/Something did it, or it did itself. Whether it's the beginning of the cosmos or the beginning of life, the beginning of mankind or the beginning of mind, either Someone/Something is responsible for everything we see or it's responsible for itself. "Does God Exist?" Is this really a question for science at all? Actually, it seems this is a matter of forensic science, since we can't re-create the birth of the universe or the formation of first life in a laboratory. Therefore, we collect the observable evidence in our world and apply our forensic investigation skills to analyze its collective meaning. In the end, we all need to collect and examine the evidence for ourselves. Ultimately, whether couched as scientific inquiry or purely religious/moral/philosophical faith, it's not a matter for the laboratory. _______________________ Human being, this infinitely complex being, has several capacities... Only humans has these capacities... and that made human being, a perfect creation, so, a perfect creator... but what ? : capacity to think. capacity to like. capacity to want. capacity to laugh. capacity to imagine. capacity to create. capacity to plan. capacity to speak. capacity to request. Capacity to hope. Capacity of analyze. Capacity to envisage. Capacity to appreciate. Capacity to have "passions" Capacity of different "taste", "preferences", And most importantly, the capacity of "choosing". Who has fought the plague and the dryness? Who conquered the Skies?(Space, the Moon...) 1 only Spermatozoon will emerge to create a life, and this, among 400 million spermatozoa... It could create more than three hundred and thousand billion human, all different from/to each other. .

Religious Intolerance
"Religious intolerance is either intolerance motivated by one's own religious beliefs or intolerance against another's religious beliefs or practices. It manifests both at a cultural level, but may also be a formal part of the dogma of particular religious groups."
