While many in main stream science claim to be atheist and believe in the Big Bang and the eventual Deep Freeze due to entropy. Is it not curious to consider that the very underpinnings of this belief is based on mathematics, was it too created in the big bang? if so how was it constructed? one digit at a time?

I think not it has always been there and will always remain its an eternal masterpiece that permeates every conceivable facet or reality yet in its self it is purely abstract. Without it nothing would exist, but it in itself it is nonexistent and existent at the same time. It is the language of the living universe. Its permutations are infinite, yet it did not grow, it has always been complete and eternal.         

You mean etymology, right? "Entomology" is the study of insects.

If you want to go by the ancient dictionaries, move into the past. The present dictionaries are the language of today.

There are many words that come into being because someone made them up, and people started to catch on to them, until they were recognized as words. Such words are the language of the day. This is Dictionary.com... the language of the day.

Use it, or build a time machine and go back into the past. Of course, if you did that, you'd be strung up for proclaiming your atheism.

Word Origin
C12: via Old French from Latin religiō fear of the supernatural, piety, probably from religāre to tie up, from re- + ligāre to bind

Make sense in your own perspective, we're giving you clear answers but you just make an escape hole to prove something on your end without even presenting the facts you imply and just repeating ur analogies over and over. So instead of wasting the time and the energy to type better to ignore you but I can see that your getting farther with your spammy post so I just remind people that spam is not allowed on this forum.

 

The problem is that most of the people in the forum are looking for something that makes sense.

The things that I say make sense.

The only thing that you say, that you make sense, is proven to be wrong by what you say.

To be fair the whole forum should get together and have a pact to just ignore him. Once nobody is listening to him, he'll goto another forum to spread his lies.

Isn't a spammer should be ban in any forum? As I see there's no evidence nor facts presented and that would be equal to an opinionated spam. Because the cycle is just keep on repeater. Refuted>Make an escape loop>Answer with another safe escape. Right badecker?

 

Your definition doesn't. But as pointed out many times before, the standard dictionaries (those that existed long before "dictionary.com") have definitions of religion that include terms such as "supernatural belief" and "god or gods" in their definitions.

But the definition of "religion" doesn't say that a god is a requirement of religion. However, the activities and thinking of mankind in his presumptuousness, suggests that mankind makes himself out as though he were a god. So, religion always has a god, even though the definition doesn't require it.

A religion must include a god and a place of worship. Science has neither. If you believe in science you are an athiest. Scientology isnt a religion either, it is more of a cult

The belief that science is not a religion, in the face of it being proven to be a religion, is a religion itself.
