  • Theist thought experiment

    You are a theist doing a science project where one experiment builds on the next. You run your first experiment and get a positive result. You run your next experiment and you get another positive result... and so on until you have 100 positive results. Then on experiment 101 you get a positive result, but now you have a conclusion that is in conflict with what your faith teaches you. Do you try endlessly to find the flaw in your last experiment, find the flaw in the whole project, or find the flaw in your faith?

    Find the flaw in the project.

      faith itself is created in the human mind as a comfort zone.

      faith itself is the flaw.

        you weren't following a true scientific experiment. at some point something corrupted the entire series thus leading you to the result in 101. you could argue you were being biased in that you had already anticipated some sort of outcome.

          p.s. faith has nothing to do with science. :)
