You listed three countries, dude. Tell me what colonies they currently have?

What about the rest of the world? For example China or Russia? Why exactly do they have less colonies?

Do you think the US is the entire west?

Do you think non western countries care more about casualties?

Your stupid meme just makes my point more stand out that you have all your knowledge from memes

I think you make an interesting point and got me thinking, didn't want to come of as standoffish or something.

I just think science pointing at faith loses the nuance between the assumption that a working theory is currently correct and the deep belief in dogma. Technically you could call both faith, but they are very different.

As you pointed out science deals with unknowns and sometimes there's not even a theory. Faith has historically been one of the primary ways to deal with any kinds of unknowns, of course, but it's not the only one.

I agree that being a scientist and being faithful isn't a contradiction. I feel like science is a very broad term and certain disciplines might be more or less inclined to be religious though.

There's a difference between working with the latest and most probable hypothesis under the assumption that it could be wrong and faith in a religious sense.

Faith and dogma leave no shred of doubt that they're right. Science acknowledges that it could be completely wrong but we have no further data to replace at this point in time.

Israel has been there for decades without being at war with Palestine and there was no peace.

I don't know what they have been doing with their influence to this point then.
