small pox………………………..?

Q: i got a school report about small pox. I have to find out how to prevent it, how is was discovered, and how it was first used

A: Damn I thought you were going to say you had it. I was about to be like, “Where are you at… so I don’t go there!”

Which should I have more faith in?

Q: Every time I read of a new discovery about the way the universe works, there is a scientist who discovered it. Every time a new technology that advanced mankind is created there is a scientist or engineer who created it. The computer we are using to get on the internet were created by engineers using theories about how electricity works developed by scientist. The small pox vaccine was developed by biologist, the internet was created by computer scienstist, etc. These two groups (scientist and engineers) produce real and tangible benefits that I can see working every day. I see posts all the time saying “atheist have to have faith in science, so they still have faith” or the equivalent. Of course we do! You would have to be an idiot not to, all around you is proof that science works.On the other hand we have religion. I have never once seen a news article stating “Pastor at church in Kansas develops alternative fuel source after a divine revelation from an all night prayer” or “Cure for cancer given to New York Bishop in a dream from God”. Even when Christian scientist discover something, it is through the application of the laws and processes of science and not through any type of divine intervention. On top of that, the “miracles” religion claims can’t be consistently demonstrated. Praying for a cure for a disease, for example, works with about the same effectiveness as random chance. Apply medicine and science to curing a disease empiracally works better than both prayer and random chance (and in fact, medicine and science have even be able to completely eliminate some diseases, a feat God has never even attempted to claim).So why would I have faith in religion, something that has done nothing but bring us war, corruption, greed, and division for the last 2,000 years when I could have faith in science, which performs real miracles every day?Here is your chance to convert me religious people. Give me a reason why my faith in science is misplaced.

He provides~ Read one of the Lee Strobels’ books to discover HOW we can prove the FACTS of the Bible~ He lined up many scientists and experts of different fields to make a few compliled fact books.Better yet?
