Science is being dominated by Atheism 😨

[brabbelbeest]

I don't mean to be disrespectful, but this is what we call utter nonsense.

Atheism has nothing to do with science. Atheism is either the belief in the non-existence of (a) God(s) or the disbelief in the existence of (a) God(s).
That's it, nothing more, nothing less. Everything else is just personal preference.

The difference is that where some theists have prepossessed beliefs or religious claims that clash with a number of scientific conclusions, making them deny those particular scientific conclusion in order to preserve their beliefs, atheism in general does not have any prepossessed claims.
Because of this atheists in general do not have any trouble accepting all scientific conclusions equally, instead of cherry-picking through them to see which do or do not clash with already held beliefs.

And still about half the videos criticizing atheism, immediately switch to criticize certain scientific conclusions, like for instance the "big bang" theory, abiogenesis and the theory of evolution.
Even though there is nothing inherently atheistic about them.

You are right about science ignoring supernatural explanations, this has nothing to do with disproving God (by far most scientists are theists themselves), but because there is no such thing as "supernatural".

Don't get me wrong, there have been countless scientific studies in what is often considered supernatural fields, like mediums, faith-healers, the afterlife, ghosts, etc.
But again the supernatural simply doesn't exist.

Because the only way you can call something supernatural, is when it is unknown to us. The moment something previously considered supernatural is proven to exist and we understand the how and why behind it, it automatically ceases to be supernatural and becomes part of our natural world.

So the statement "science ignores the supernatural" doesn't make much sense.

awe, Eric Hovind doesn't like methodological naturalism. Its cute how he thinks he is being persecuted.

If anything science creates more atheism.

[martinperry]

If you can provide any hard evidence for the supernatural then science can consider it. But if your only evidence is like feelings and a badly translated bronze age storybook then that's not really evidence is it.

Put on your armor of god.

We'll still take aim with the cannon of reason.

[maxdoubt]

Nope. Their _real_ concern is maintaining the authority of (their particular interpretation of) the bible. And science is demolishing that

[magicshrooms]

I'm sorry but when you claim that there is a omnipotent immortal being who created everything that has ever and will ever exist the burden of proof is on you, people in the scientific community are probably just more vocal about that

Which is it?
Does science follow atheism?
Or does atheism follow science?

Either way you are wrong.
Atheism isn't a worldview.
Its your stance on the god-claim, nothing more.
Since god is defined as being outside the realm of science. Science wont help us prove or disprove god.

Also you cannot prove there is no god. You cant prove a negative. You can only show that alternatives are more likely to be true as they do not require a supernatural explanation we have 0 good evidence for.

Because science is based on measurable data and not a method to prove a predetermined outcome.

worked pretty well i would say if you look at technological progress
