GOD IS BEYOND THE RANGE OF SCIENCE

The atheists do not believe the existence of God in the universe. Their most powerful weapon in this argument is the inability of scientific validation of God's existence. Though theists do feel and believe the existence of God, they cannot use modern scientific methods to validate the real existence of God or Gods.

What does this mean? It means that God is beyond the range of science. Science is the knowledge of human beings. It is still in the fast developing stage. It will continue discovering new facts and revealing new truths and principles of the universe.

The argument of using scientific validation of God existence by atheist is itself invalid point. The followings are my scientific explanation of this statement.

First of all, we must understand the limitations of science. The limitations of science are very obvious in two areas, that is, the knowledge of human beings and the time frame. For example, before the development of modern airplanes, could science validate the existence of airplane in that time? The answer is definitely no. But today, airplanes are the popular transportation tool worldwide. What does this mean? It means at that time, human beings' knowledge is limited and this limitation is because of the time frame. From another point of view, at that time, the airplane did exist, but it only existed in human' mind, not in the material form. Later, when time goes on, when human beings' knowledge and ability expand, the airplane became the real thing. Otherwise, if the airplane concept did not exist in human being's mind, how could we develop the planes anyway?

Then, from the evolution theory, that is the favorable view of the world by atheists, it is also considered as a scientific theory, there are many different levels in the evolution chain of life. Human beings is believed as the highest level in the evolution process on the Earth. Therefore, human beings has higher ability and wisdom than a cat or a dog. Human beings can use scientific methods to validate the existence of a cat and a dog. But can a cat or a dog use their scientific way to validate the existence of human beings? Can any atheist provide the scientific evidence to show me that? Further question are: evolution is a continuing process, why does it stop at the human beings? can God or Gods be the next higher level in the evolution process beyond human beings? In another word, if monkeys evolved to apes, apes evolved to human beings, then human beings evolved to God or Gods.

Third, science is the knowledge developed by human beings and thus it can only explain things related to same level in the universe. The main levels from low to high in the universe can be grouped into: 1. materials in the universe, 2. other life forms on the earth, 3. human beings on the earth, 4. God and gods over the heaven. Thus, it is obvious that the science developed by human beings is unable to deal with the matter of God and gods.

Finally, science is still in developing status. It will continue to develop new ways to reveal the truth about the universe. When it comes to certain point, it may be able to provide solid evidence of the real existence of God and gods

Anyway, my scientific statement is that God is beyond the range of science. God is above the reach of human beings' ability.

Let me use an example to support my statement. There are many animals living on the wild, some of them never see a human beings in their life time. Therefore they never know the existence of human beings on the earth. Of course, they cannot use any scientific method to validate the existence of human beings on the earth. However, human beings does exist on the earth, doesn't it? Furthermore, even these animals have lived with human beings, they are lack the ability to use scientific way to validate the existence of human beings, doesn't they?

In brief, do not use science as a sole explanation to all universe events, especially pure physics. If so, it is an abuse of science.
