I had an argument? 🙂 Seriously, though- yeah, it frustrates me when people feel they have to give a particular faith “equal time” with science. Faith should be spiritual, and treating a faith as fact is absurd. Does the reality that the Bible contains factual errors invalidate the Christian faith? No. But it does mean that Christianity doesn’t make a good science.

Likewise, I get angry when people treat a theory as a religion. When people start to consider something as “irrefutable”, they become unable to interpret contradictory facts logically. Unlike faith, which does not need to be supported by any kind of fact, science requires repeated testing and re-validation of every theory in light of new data.

Now, personally, I’d like to think that a reasonable faith would embrace science and the complexities it reveals as proof of the brilliance and power of the creator. Whether the creator is the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Jehovah- either/or 😉
