What If Science Proved Your Belief Wrong.
What if science proved that there was some kind of intelligence behind everything, but not what everyone was taught about their view of god...The one god that's mentioned in scripture.....Would you leave your denomination?.....Would you ignore it?....Would you try to combine it with your belief....
How would that affect your thinking and change your life.

i think it's tragically funny that when a belief that you have no proof for whatsoever gets proved wrong (eg: Catholicism)... and you are, in fact, shown the truth (Intelligence that thread starter mentions) that this is the point where you think there's nothing to believe in
definition of irony
you believe what can't be proved, but you can't believe what you have been shown to be the absolute truth
😆
this is what's wrong with the world.... people are too stuck on their beliefs. they are stubborn and completely unwilling to change a point of view.... it only leads so segregation, prejudice and war

You have said that before, and it was just as meaningless then as it is now.
Some Christians have enough faith in their religion to talk about it with people who disagree, but there are a great many who run and hide. Were as, some atheists have huge amounts of faith, and do not cower. I find this to be the strangest thing on this forum. I only have one wish, I wish, I could help these atheists with great faith, do good things with that increasable faith, like helping people. 😄
That is not to say that atheists don’t care about other people, just that I am sometime disappointed in atheists who spend so much time and energy just bashing Christians.
BTW I am a Buddhist.
I would embrace the truth and take the best of my old belifes and apply them to this new truth.However,since I don't realy have a whole lot of fixed belifes,I don't think it would hurt me too much.In a few years though they would probably say something else and say what they thought was the truth to be wrong.

I think the biggest irony is that some people don't realize that there is a difference between science and faith 🙄

No but your statement is essentially worthless because there IS a difference in science and faith. And since your statement had to do with the topic my response to your statement did also.

your faith or believe has already been proved wrong to you if you KNOW, beyond any shadow of a doubt that your faith was wrong... how would that affect you?
nothing more, nothing less... it's not a question of how strong your faith was, it's simply "what would you do if you knew your faith was wrong"?
the difference between science and faith doesn't come into it

Yes it does.Science can't explain how Jesus was able to walk on water; and in fact scientifically it would be impossible wouldn't it? It doesn't change my beliefe and faith in him.
if you're just going to ignore the ENTIRE point off the thread then why post in it?
this is purely theoretical... we're not asking you to actually give up your faith.... we just want to know how you would feel/what you would do, IF if was proven to YOUR satisfaction that the beliefs you held were wrong?
