Um, yeah?
I do not see a contradiction.
You said you'd call non-theistic evolution "science". Then you said "science" is neutral regarding divine action (non-theistic[specifically exclude DA]/theistic[require DA]) and evolution.
In a way your posts made sense - you could say that physics is science and science is neutral on whether it is physics, chemistry, biology, etc. But the word "physics" isn't really a synonym for the word "science" (and I was looking for a synonym for "non-theistic evolution")
What do you think 'atheist' means when you say 'atheist evolution?'
I didn't use that exact term but I think it means that there was no divine action in evolution.
But many theists believe in biological evolution that is not completely naturalistic....
....such as...?
https://www.oldearth.org/old_earth_creationism.htm"....Some believe he created the natural laws, and let evolution run its course, while others believe God was actively involved in the evolution process..."
So it would involve that latter group...
Theists would claim that there could be evidence such as irreducible complexity -
a claim that never stands up to scrutiny, when scientists examine a claimed example.
Like I said, I reject it - "I think that there were no jumps in evolution - that it seems perfectly naturalistic...."
So, no. Still no scientific reason to treat superstition as science.
Well I consider my belief in a simulation to be pseduoscience.
So, think about this for a second. You latch onto the idea that if god or the simulation doesn't want to be detected, it need not be....while also alluding to how you determined that it's a simulation.
Like I said I think God could be playing "hide and "seek" - and sometimes he is "hiding" (or not so present or obvious).
It is similar to Psalm 22:
"My God, my God, why have you deserted me?
Why do you seem so far away when I need you to save me?
Why do you seem so far away that you can’t hear my groans?
My God, I cry out in the daytime. But you don’t answer."
Though I don't think it is historical, Jesus quoted this when the presence of God left him....
But I think it gives me hints of its existence e.g.
post #112 The Futurama quote isn't saying it doesn't want to be detected at all - just that people can't be
sure that it's done anything at all. I think evidence for a possible simulation is stronger than the evidence for an intervening intelligent force - but it still isn't obvious.
