Scientific proof that god doesn't exist:
An essentially conjoined esophagus and trachea. How in the world is it INTELLIGENT or LOGICAL to combine to pipes that are vital to survival essentially into one input? The very thing we need to do to survive (eat) can cause us not to be able to do the essentially only other thing we need to do to survive (breathe).
Seems like a major design flaw if we were intelligently created. Which then infer that our creator maybe isn't so perfect. Nature and evolution on the other hand would take the simplest path it can to form our systems; which would result in reusing what it can.
That doesn't disprove god. God could of started evolution and then stood back and watched what happened.
Well it would completely dispel the creation story as known in nearly all religions.
Believing in god and believing in religion are completely different things.
I think they're wholly linked. Religion is based on the worship of a god. In the Christian religion for example, if we can delink the creation story from any direct intelligent creation, would that not essentially deflate the entire structure of the religion? At least the parts that maintain any divine intervention. What did god do other than create man and the world? Essentially nothing.
Merriam-Webster expressly defines religion as believing in and worshiping a god.
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/religionBuddhist and the like are technically atheist; nor is it a religion. Misguided individual may think it is, but by definition it is not.
Well it is possible to believe god, but not believe in a religion.
