P.S. I think we're back online now.
P.P.S. Ooops. Comments aren't working. The tech people are trying to turn those back on right now.

Now this is interesting. I wonder what Dr. Robert Atkins would have thought?
I have to disagree with Skep Tick's agreement that science would stop if it knew everything it would just stop. Math pretty much knows everything, but continues, into more and more theoretical realms. Indeed, this is a powerful paradigm for understanding the history of mathematics.

Since we know so little, and it will be so long (if ever) before we know 'everything', I'd say this is purely speculation. You and I will never live to see the day that this bet is laid to rest.
Posted by: Tulse | July 22, 2009 2:45 PM
If there are realms it hasn't explored, then the discipline doesn't know everything. Math may be a non-empirical formal system, but understanding that formal system is the job of people, and those people definitely don't know everything there is to know about that formal system.

WHAT WILL YOU DO THEN WHEN YOU HAVE DIED AND YOU HAVE TO FACE OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST! YOU WILL NOT BE LAUGHING WHEN YOU ARE SENT TO BURN WITH ALL THE OTHER HERETICS!!
I pray you find Christ. May the peace and love of Jesus be with you all.

A) Science can never know everything. The more we know, the more questions we know how to ask. We are exploring questions today we couldn't even formulate a century ago. Also, see Godel's Incompleteness Theorem.
B) Math does not "know everything". There are many unproven conjectures. For example, there is no known optimal solution to problems such as minimizing the route for a traveling salesman visiting multiple cities. Some problems can be solved by inventing new branches of math, but that leads to new unsolved problems. See Godel's Incompleteness Theorem.
Posted by: The skepTick | July 22, 2009 3:17 PM
I also have to disagree with The skepTick. One can conclude that he is saying religion doesn't stop, when in fact it already has. Other than exploring a few philosophical nuances relative to the human condition, religionists seem to have all the answers in one book that forgoes revision in favor of reinterpretation. Thus "the heavens are stretched like a tent" is their evidence for an expanding universe. Men having nipples is evidence for God's efficiency. In a book where a day can either be a day or 'some period of time', all that matters is the angle you're reading from.

I hear Lenny Bruce and George Carlin are there. I'm betting on lots of laughing.
Please keep praying. Spend all your time praying.

Re the troll de l'heure...
Remember, folks, the god the 'new atheists' are criticizing is a mere shallow parody of the real thing*--the real deity is this terribly ineffable and sophisticated concept, 'cept way deeper even than that implies, see? It's like this vague cloud of syrupy feelgoodness, bottomless wisdom, like, totally deep, see... Certainly not some scary ole' black-hearted monster from a really hackneyed Saturday morning cartoon who gets his jollies burning people... I mean, making fun of that is just too easy, and so totally off the wall, ye laughably shallow thinkers, you. I mean, wherever did you get such a silly notion from?...
(/See also the contemporary definition of god: 'God: whatever the atheists haven't successfully managed to look ridiculous recently... If it made you laugh, and made me look stupid, well, obviously that wasn't my god. QED.')

You don't seem to be paying attention. Those can obviously be ignored.

Since natural medications cannot be patented, no companies have incentives to do clincal testing. I personally use Red Yeast Rice/Q10 and Fish Oil supplements for manage my cholesterol to seeming benefit. I not a homeopathic person by any means, but maybe the FDA should commission some clinical trails of PROMISING natural medications. It curtainly serve the public good to either validate or debunk various natural medication claims.

Dear Brother Frank @ 57
Thank you for your fervent exhortations to all these hell-bound atheists. However, you should know that God AND Jesus have appointed ME as missionary to this blog, and you are destroying the many years of privation, deprivation and depilation I have gone through to build up a relationship with the deluded sinners that hang around here so that I can convert them to the ONE TRUE FAITH!!!!!!
Jesus is very concerned that you have not been listening properly. God did not tell you that he's coming back and there's going to be war and then peace. What he actually said is "I, GOD, AM NOT coming back to rule over this world for 1,000 years, because when I'm not involved there is NO WAR, only 1,200 years of PEACE!"
Yours in Christian clarification
Smoggy Batzrubble, Pharyngula Missionary
PS Jesus also said, clean your fucking ears out or he's going to send the Holy Spirit to fuck you.

FredZ,
I think it's quite telling the 'alternative medicine' couldn't survive in the free marketplace and had to get a woo-woo politico to pour money into it on its own track.
That's ten years and about a 1000 million USD solely to look at altmed - no competition with teh ebol pharma - and nothing to show for it.
It's been tried. It didn't work. Now can we please use that money to put rovers on Mars instead?

Dara's great. Always love him on QI. Didn't know he had his own show. Will have to look for video or torrents of Mock the Week.
Er... care to be more specific? There's a few of those in the dungeon.
Frank:

@Watchman,
He's a very succesful Irish comedian who's biggest gig at the moment is a program called Mock the Week. If you can find any clips of MtW have a look at them, some of the panelists are brilliant - specificaly Frankie Boyle and Russel Howard. There's a very strong sceptical vibe running through the show, they'll rip the piss out of anybody, especialy Frankie.

I'm sorry I didn't read the entire thread. I made it as far as the all caps godbottery and that was it for me, once again, I apologize.

Frank @ 57 Don't confuse the headteacher at your all boys catholic school with God. Regardless of how special he makes you feel when he visits, he's only human (and a poor excuse for one).
Now get in the sack.

-God began visiting me during the night and giving me FIRSTHAND information about his WORD-
No Frank, that was your daddy...and i thought he told you not to tell anyone about his night time visits.

FRANK Beemer
You too have read the book of Revelations, then.
Preach it to us atheists, especially the part where only males untouched by women are going to heaven. Are you celibate, Frank?
Or perhaps it means gay men? Are you gay, Frank?
Sorry, ladies, I'm only going on what the bible says.

Wonderful! I gather Dara is something of a fan so will likely be dead chuffed at the mention.
I have been looking for this clip on and off to send to PZ for a while now. Glad someone found it. It won't be there forever though. Dara's minions do regular YouTube sweeps and pull videos like this, although the God Moments http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0123R6vjIoE one seems to always be there - wonder why.

Bernard @ 100
Im Irish also and your idiotic cultural nationalism is as pathetic and irrational as the religious belief being lampooned here. I am ashamed to come from the same country as ignorant backwards fools such as you.
Be gone Fool
BTW Good on ya Dara

I haven't watched this video yet, but I'd like to comment, even though I have little clue what's going on thus far. Does anyone else find it mildly ironic that a large group of homophobic men are obsessed with finding, receiving, and sharing the love of another man?

"I KNOW FOR A FACT GOD EXSISTS! I AM OFTEN FIRSTHAND TO HIS TEACHINGS! When I wa younger, God began visiting me during the night and giving me FIRSTHAND information about his WORD!"
You know, there's a name for that...
