How Scientists Made God Disappear!

Guess what? I’ve solved another magic trick all by myself! I’ve finally found out how scientists made God disappear! I’ve cracked it and I’m so happy I feel like Isaac Newton! Hahaha!

I came across this amazing sentence in the book “The Nature of Science”:

“Evolution thus differs from so-called creation science, supposedly based on the biblical Book of Genesis, because there is no observation or experiment that could conceivably convince a supporter of creation science that it is wrong.”

Therefore it’s wrong.

Get it?

So scientists are basically saying that it’s wrong because they can’t prove it’s wrong!

Isn’t that absolutely mind-boggling logic? Can something like that hold up in court? You’re guilty because there is no way we can prove you’re guilty?

Here‘s how the magic trick works. Let me distil it like a good scientist would into the following 3 steps:

Step 1: Demonstrate that since there is no way to prove or disprove God using science, therefore God is beyond the realm of science.

Step 2: Get the audience to agree that since God is beyond science, the subject is therefore “not science” or “unscientific”.

Step 3: Glorify the word “science” and stigmatise the word “unscientific”, making it indistinguishable from words like stupid, ignorant, uninformed, uneducated, irrational, brainless, idiotic, etc.

Voila! In 3 simple steps, you’ve turned every believer into an imbecile and wiped God off the face of the universe! So simple and yet so utterly effective! It’s one of the most impressive magic tricks I’ve ever seen and has fooled literally millions around the world!

The title of the book is really apt. I have finally discovered the nature of the beast they call science!

Fun With Leeches

Question: How do you get rid of a leech without salt or fire?

I took the kids to Sungai Congkat this morning. It has a fast flowing stream with clear icy waters that is very popular over the weekends. It was deserted on a Friday morning. We were about to step into the water when my son found two small leeches on his leg. Now I have no experience with handling leeches. I had no salt and no fire. So we tried to drown them by keeping his feet under the cold waters. But they remained firmly stuck. I had another idea. You know how leeches walk - head over feet over head. When my son took his foot out of the water they started moving. It's very difficult to remove a leech when its head is stuck to your flesh. So I waited for the precise moment when the head was up to brush it off. It worked! But somehow it ended up next to my son's crotch! And it was inching closer and closer to his nuts!

My son, of course, was going crazy, yelling and screaming! Fortunately he was wearing swimming trunks. So I pressed his trunks to his flesh so the leech wouldn't go under. The leech got on top of his trunks and my son pulled them off frantically. I then got the leech off his swimming trunks with a stick. We tried the same technique with the other leech and it came off as well. It must be a truly memorable experience for my son. Hahaha!
