Been meaning to post this for around 2 weeks now. On my dinner break at uni and had some time to kill so I went to Subway, I usually take out but decided to eat in. There was 2 guys on 1 table, myself on another and just people generally coming and going. So I hear these 2 guys talking, the topic was religion, one guy was a Muslim, the other a Christian. So they are just exchanging their views on the world and way their religion is around the world...blah blah blah, a pretty normal/general conversation.
I myself am non-religious but I respect everyone's beliefs and didn't really think of anything they had said, until... the christian guy made the most idiotic statement, he said to the best of my memory, something along the lines of "If you think about it, scientist use maths to solve a lot of problems, in engineering, most problems are solved by maths, now if you could solve all the answers in the universe with maths, then that proves their has to be a creator, a god. So whereas people think science disproves religion, it is actually proving their is a God".
Like I said I respect what anyone thinks to a certain level, but wow I had to bite my tongue at that point! I am not a rude person so I didn't want to intrude, nor could I be bothered with a debate with 2 strangers lol.
Seriously though, is it just me, or is that a ridiculous argument ?
