Exactly, that is my point.
Let me break it down for you

YOUR CLAIM: Everything can be studied by science

OUR RESPONSE: Science can only prove, and explain that which is physical, angels, for example, are not physical, you can not see, feel, taste, hear, or smell them, and outside of religious texts, have no influance on man. Therefore they can only be studied by philosophy.

YOUR REBUTTAL: But science can study everything, you haven’t told me why.

OUR RESPONSE: We just gave you a good example of why, you have yet to show us why you believe science can study everything.

YOUR RESPONSE: You never told me anything.

This had gone on and on for almost 30 pages. Where you ignore, twist, and misinterpret our arguments and then claim we have told you nothing.

If you continue to refuse to show any evidence, we can cery easily make conclude that your belief in sciences ability to study everything is based purely on your FAITH in the scientific method.

Perfect answer. 👍

  1. It is universal
  2. It is the new Israel ( huge temple (the Vatican), a prime minister (our Pope), a sacred tabernacle containing the Ark of the Covenant (our tabernacle containing the Eucharist), officers who take care of the kingdom (our Cardinals and bishops), high priests (our priests), a Passover Meal (our Eucharist), and a Queen Mother (The Blessed Virgin Mary)
  3. It was established by Jesus Christ, MT 16:18
  4. It is the largest charity organization in the world
  5. We do our darndest to save the entire world
  6. CCC 1033 We cannot be united with God unless we freely choose to love him. But we cannot love God if we sin gravely against him, against our neighbor or against ourselves: "He who does not love remains in death. Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him."612 Our Lord warns us that we shall be separated from him if we fail to meet the serious needs of the poor and the little ones who are his brethren.613 To die in mortal sin without repenting and accepting God’s merciful love means remaining separated from him for ever by our own free choice. This state of definitive self-exclusion from communion with God and the blessed is called “hell.”
 
I think you will find that with all science and the desire to further knowledge - people make attempts, and theorise and proffer explanations to help move us closer to answers. Philosophy does not do that. It does not help explain how things work.

As someone once said - Philosophy can be the birth place of ideas, but they have to leave home to grow up and become part of the real sciences.
Okay, as a former atheist myself, I just want to let you know you’re not doing it right. Seriously, it’s obvious you don’t have your arms around half the things you try to bring up. The onus is on you to disprove a Creator because the laws of science (not religion) require a First Mover. Occam’s Razor states the simplest answer is a Creator. See, what you want to do (to better annoy people) is to admit a god is likely, but come up with something other than the Christian God. Now, from your responses, you dont seem that creative, so maybe ask for help with this one from your parents.

We don’t have to prove the scientific method, the Laws of Motion, and millennia of scientific theory because you spent forty-five minutes musing on the divine and think you’ve come to some interesting conclusions. Put down your keyboard and go read a book for a change.

Also, a quick tip to help you troll better in the future: Beginning a quote with “As someone once said…” really takes any implied grandeur or authority of whatever comes next. Go ahead and Google the quote, it’ll have more cred.
