joreth: (Dobert Demons of Stupidity)
In an ongoing debate on another forum about science vs. religion, there appears to be some difficulty discerning the two.  Many people think that science is "just another religion" in that it still requires "faith" to believe in the results of the scientific method.  [personal profile] tacitposted a picture which very elegantly sums up the difference.  I liked it so much, I'm posting it here.

Out of curiosity, do you know what forum he posted it to? It was posted to [livejournal.com profile] atheism not long ago, and I made a point of saving it.

There are certain kinds of arguments that I should avoid, but just can't. The two big ones are religion vs science and "The Moon landing was a hoax!" vs sanity.
