there is really no need to ‘disprove God’ as I have the need to disprove that Santa Claus was not standing on my roof ready to deliver xmas gifts during last Xmas.

I’m fairly certain that I’ve “evolved” to be able to consume an amount of sugar that would have caused my grandparents violent illness, and maybe even death. Have I gained any new information in my DNA? Rather perhaps I’ve lost information in that my pancreas doesn’t know how to signal reverse peristalsis (ie. blow chunkage) and simply pumps away the insuline until my cells become so resistant to its effects that I become diabetic.

Let’s be open to a dialogue between science and religion instead of being ready to issue “pokes in the eye”, shall we? The tone of this article does nothing to further the credibility of “New Science” or anyone using such sensational pieces.

This indicates that their goal is not to further science as a body of knowledge, but rather to somehow “disprove God” (as if such a thing were possible) – which of course is exactly what the religious community accuses them of doing.
