Science or Religion? Which Can We Trust? w/ Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Fr Gregory goes off!! Your vocabulary and eloquence makes me feel more intelligent. Thank you for this amazing talk!

Fr Pine, we need a talk regarding the meaning of the Lord's Prayer. Also, Sermon on the Mount! Thank you.

You the best Fr Pine with Aquinas!

I will give you the thumbs-up, before we even start!🙂

Have you ever felt the need to give anything other than positive feedback to the insights of Father Pine.

[@TheThreatenedSwan]

There is a lot of philosophy that underpins our view of the sciences, but the mainstream usually ignores that rather taking it for granted.

[@5MinuteCatholicApologetics]

thank you for your service, Father.

Father Pine a question/topic for a future podcast - How to prudentially balance telling the truth with falling into the sin of detraction. Seems important, at least to me, given what many would consider the crisis state the Church is in. Do the spiritual works of mercy: instruct the ignorant, counsel the doubtful, and admonish a sinner play into it, if so how? Another one. Has what constitutes sin with regards to the eighth commandment changed at all in the 20th century? Was lying considered at some point in order to save a life acceptable and now isn't?, for example. Thanks!

I once spoke to a sceptical person about eucharistic miracles. And he said that it makes lots of sense and convincing, but he will not believe it (by choice) unless he "sees it with his own eyes". Yes I know who it made you think about, and his name is actually Thomas :P

[@koppite9600]

@@TheVeganVicar the texts? St Thomas also went to India where he died preaching the risen Jesus. Take time to read history don't let it be brought to you.

[@koppite9600]

@@TheVeganVicar why would Indians make up the story of St Thomas? Don't you know we have remains of the disciples in Catholic churches? In the first place why would you not give the benefit of the doubt to an evangelist? How often do you go around being skeptical of things you're told? People just socialise, verify whenever you think the story is fishy. Don't have a bias against anything just accept and verify.

Faith is such a beautiful mystery. God is truth, and God is infinite. As such His infinity overflows our intellect. How could we truly know God without faith then? Also what a wonderful gift, the virtues that follow faith. Obedience, Humility.

[@archangelarielle262]

Faith is nothing more than the position you take, when you don't have evidence. Otherwise you would provide evidence, therefore it's dishonest. It is also unreliable, because there's no position that you cannot take based of faith. I can say I have faith that "Jesus and Mohammed are gay for each other".

Hey, thank you for making this video! I'm the one who suggested this topic for you to cover. I trust both science and faith. You can have both, it is very simple! I see no issues between science and faith, you can have the Big Bang, evolution, God, Adam and Eve, etc. When it comes to science and faith, I'm for 4 things: 1. Dialogue 2. Embracing science 3. Reconciliation 4. Promotion of science in religious circles.

There is no conflict for me! Jesus is my savior and in him I put all my trust, faith and life! Now God may use men or women or whatever he wishes to help but for me all things come from God! I put my life in the hands of Jesus and there is no questions ...

[@hwamilka]

[@pong9000]

I define faith as "belief, regardless of evidence". This is the strongest faith, because no test can change your mind. I wouldn't try to excuse it by claiming it just another rational belief based on evidence, as Father Gregory does here. No, the blindness of the faith is the whole point. That's what makes it so powerful, and really comfortable too once you've simply made up your mind. Ironic that an atheist like me has absolute faith, while Father Gregory is clearly grasping for proofs to support his faith. Maybe he's absorbed the pretensions of those anti-christians he debates. My counsel is to accept that in some matters it is fine to "hold a belief, regardless of evidence".

Science has now become a GOD, to the detriment of humanity. Science is not a replacement for faith in God.

[@therick363]

It’s those who treat science that way and use it politically that are causing a detriment of humanity.

Faith is the excuse you give for not having a good rational logical reason for which you believe.

You can definitely believe religious claims for bad reasons.

[@perry186]

There is only one God who exists as three distinct persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God The Holy Spirit. God loves us and wants a relationship with us. The bad news is that sin separates us from God. We have all sinned and broken God’s law, whether that sin be lying, stealing, anger, lust, pride, fornication, abortion, dishonoring our parents, gossip, the practice of homosexuality, and witchcraft. God is Holy and Just and because of this, God cannot let sin go unpunished, and that punishment is eternal hell. We can’t work or earn our way into heaven and our good deeds can’t save us from our sin. The bible says all our righteous acts are like filthy rags. We need something more than our own righteousness. Our righteousness does not measure up to God’s standard of goodness. The Good news is that God is more than just Holy and Just, he is loving and merciful. The bible says for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Jesus lived a perfect life and never sinned. He willingly went to the cross and paid the price for the sin of his people. He died and on the third day God raised him from the dead. Jesus overcame and defeated death. Now anyone who would put their trust in Jesus and repent of their sins, will have their sins forgiven and they too will overcome death and will receive eternal life. To repent means to turn away from sin, to change your mind about the sin you use to do. A change of mind will result in a change of action. Christians will struggle with sin and they won't be perfect, but they don’t embrace and live in sin. Jesus, who is God, is the standard of goodness and anyone who puts their trust in him will receive his righteousness. When it’s time to face God, God will welcome them in heaven because of Jesus’s righteousness. If you die today, will you face God with your righteousness or will you accept Jesus’s righteousness? Repent and believe today

[@H3Wbris]

The statement of homosexuality being a sin exists only in recent revisions of the Bible. It was translated from another language by fallible human hands. Older versions have been translated to mean "man shall not lie with boy," implying the sin of paedophilia. Homosexuals do not deserve eternal damnation for loving another consenting man as a woman, and you are mistaken for saying so.

[@perry186]

@@H3Wbris Hi Hunter, while they may be some translations that say that, the bible as a whole is clear about this subject. God intention is clear from the old testament to the new. Understanding the context is very important. Leviticus 18:22 ‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable. Romans 1:27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. Leviticus 18:22-24 ‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable. 23 “ ‘Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion. 24 “ ‘Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled.

[@Shai-eg6ew]

If not all religions can be correct , and if one religion is as correct as any other religion , well so all of them are false , am I correct? Actually the hebrew bible is saying images and likes of God(plural and no that is not about trinity , the devine créatures are in plural)

[@Shai-eg6ew]

How do I know it is not about the trinity? Well Moses saw god's behind so is God's behind another face of the devine? As much as athers but, the explicit name of Yehova is in singular , and yes that is exactlly how you pronounce the explicit name, other pronunciations are all about cultural colonialism, ancient hebrew does not have the w sound and the explicit name is striped out of it's meaning of that name using the sound w, but the word elohim can be either plural or singular according to the context. for example according to the Hebrew language academy . But in Genesis when Adam and Eve are expelled from Eden, devine creatures were gaurding the gates of eden and the text refer to them in plural, yes and the angle fighting with Jacob el a god, hence Israel. -fighting a God , the plurality is mentioned as well yes, but that is according to the context .

[@carolusaugustussanctorum]

@@Shai-eg6ew Yes you would be correct in that hypothetical if-case. But in actuality no, because Christianity is the only true logically theological and reasonable one. God does is the Trinity (Which is biblical and attested by the Holy Catholic Apostolic Church He founded and promsied and that compilated the Bible) But no, God's name is not Yehova, and you're ridiculously pretentious to say "yes, that is exactly how you pronounce the explicit name, other pronunciations are all about cultural colonialism": The last jew to know how to pronounce YHWH died before Alexander the Great was an adult and "Yehova" is just "YHWH" with the vowels of "Adonai" (another way for the jews to refer to God without fearing using His name in vain): "Yahova", and if you anglicise it, it becomes Jehovah, and that's where Jehovah's witnesses took it from, being your pretentiously true pronunciation just one step between "Yahova* and "Jehovah". So please don't bragg about knowing the true name of God right after learning in Hebrew 101 that It has no /w/ sound while you're actually just calling the very way people used to avoid using the actual name of God, the name of God; refering to the other equally failed pronunciations "cultural colonialism". It's too ridiculous and narcissistic

[@Shai-eg6ew]

@@carolusaugustussanctorum Well actually I am diagnosed with athtism level 2 , which is medium autism, so I do not have narcisistic treads , the other way around. And as one famous expert on this field said , autistic ppl do not have human feelings like envy and pride etc, we can not even tell a lie, no motive you know, and that is why most autistic ppl can not even lie, still Hebrew is my mother tangue . Well , some sects do pronounce the explicit name of god the sumeritans, the karietes and the yemenites and they all pronounce it the same as - Yehova , there is also no w sound letter in the hebrew bible or the biblical language so yehwe is not possible, that is a later and a foreign pronouncuation of the name of god, still the name of god as in hebrew has a meaning and it should be pronounced according to it's meaning , and it means -he is he was etc. I have to say that I pronounced the explicit name as yehova myself the minute I could start reading , yes we do pronounce the name in Hebrew even today cause some of as are non believes, and that is how we pronounce it , and double and tripled chequed it, it is yehova and not yehwe , and that is the way I read it and that is the way every sect and a hebrew speaker does, a later w sound in the hebrew language is possible but with double vavs -ו so the explicit name should be יהווה .and not יהוה, but that is not biblical hebrew , neither it is the text , nor it is whatever, it is just not there, I disagree with the rest of you're post sir . But as an atheist I respect those who respect me that is all.

[@Shai-eg6ew]

Thank you for responding.

[@carolusaugustussanctorum]

@@Shai-eg6ew 1- You having Autism and being a Modern Hebrew speaker don't change that Yehova is just one step behind Jehova; Yehova being just a way of AVOIDING saying the name of the Lord. Therefore you saying it to be the only true name of God and the others to be ''cultural colonialism" continues to be pretentiously senseless. 2- MODERN Hebrew (that passed through much influence because of the jews in diaspora) doesn't have the /w/ sound; Biblical (Ancient) Hebrew does. So you got that chronologically and linguistically wrong as well.
