Would you agree that there are things that go against the law of nature?

Okay so here is my argument. I believe that because something isn't what scienece would say is normal doesn't mean that it doesn't happen. For example, in the past and in some rare cases today, people still eat each other, even though humans weren't designed to eat other people. So just because the earth may not need a God I don't think means that one can't exist. Would you agree?

    Traveling faster than the speed of light goes against the law of nature.

    Nope.

    First, science doesn't "say" anything. And other than some of the interpretive branches (such as psychology), there's never any comment on "normal." So you don't appear to have a clue what you're talking about when it comes to science.

    Second, humans weren't "designed" at all. Our disgust at eating other humans is largely cultural, though there's probably also an evolved instinctual component (like there is in nearly all species, few of whom ever intentionally eat their own species).

    Finally, not even atheists claim a god "can't" exist. Just that there's no evidence one does, and no need for one. Oh, and tons of evidence showing nearly all human-claimed god things do not, in fact, exist.

    So no, I don't agree with anything you said.

    Peace.

    Normal is a statistical term, as well as a sociological term, and even a term that people use to judge other people.

    "law of nature" does not have a meaning.

    We have the laws of thermodynamics, the speed of light, the law of gravity, the atomic theory, etc. There is no single "law of nature."

    in case you know organic regulation to be a view that particular rights or values are inherent in or universally cognizable via distinctive function of human reason or human nature, then no, i do no longer see it as a commencing place for human information. Human community and regulation confident, information in spite of the undeniable fact that comes upon humanity in many strategies, creativity, necessity, experimentation, even conflict. the suited contributor to human information in recent historic previous regrettably has been conflict.

    If nobody believed in God, then there would be no moral guideline to build on. It would just be, "everybody do, whatever."

    Such a society would see the legalization of child pornography, and other such immoral things.

    There would be no such thing as respect. Basically, the world would be in chaos.

  • You're a pantheist, just in case you didn't know. And I agree with you insofar as we lack definitive knowledge as to whether or not we are governed by some larger force.

    people not eating one another is not a law of nature.

    being hungry and feeding yourself is a law of nature.

    to go against the law of nature would be to starve rather than eating a dead person.

    Humans have evolved to eat cooked food. So, cooked humans are fine.

    Your arguments are dumb.
