[MD] Religion is subordinate to Science.

[Squonkonguitar at aol.com]

Dear Kevin,
In a recent exchange between you and I you avoided addressing  the absense of 
Intellectual patterns in religion.
 
(I would be grateful if other members of the MD would allow an opportunity  
for Kevin to address this point before making additional contributions. I 
should  very much like to hear what Kevin has to say.)
 
Science, in contrast, is nothing without a coherent Intellectual  patterning 
of mutualy supportive postulations.
 
For example: You assure me that my behavior dictates if i go to heaven or  
not rather than my disbelief in the Christian God. But you have selected this  
view in opposition of Biblical teaching - it is a matter of your own  social 
choosing. Other Christians disagree with you and assert that i  cannot be 
allowed into Heaven unless i assert my belief - and mean it - in God.  Some would 
behead me for being an infidel.
Science, in contrast, is not a matter of choosing: The physics of a  
motorcycle form a coherent mutualy supportive Intellectual patterning of  postulations.
 
The patterns structuring religious dogma are socially learned and are a  
matter of where Kevin Perez happened to be born; If KP was born in Persia, KP  
would be a crisp Islamic. KP is born in the US so KP is more likely to be a  
member of that country's dominent religious practice.
Both Persian and American Scientists use Geometry with equal utility and as  
such are a matter of Intellectual creativity - it doesn't matter where you are 
 born.
 
The MOQ states that social patterms, (like religions) are subordinate in  
Quality to those of Science because Intellectual patterns are an evolutionary  
moral advance on Social evolutionary advances.
 
Please address the absence of Intellectual patterns in religion  Kevin.
