You're Both Right!

Can in a debate, two opposing views be right?
  How is that so?
Why can't both Scientists and people that believe God created us, be right? At the same time?
I think some of it lies in the logic and illogical. Logic is that if Scientists believe in God they would have to believe in an other dimension.  Ok. Scientists, Please for ten minutes there are no crazy Religious Fanatics. And God Bible believers, pretend there are no Scientists believe in Evolution.  Now, everyone can commonly believe one thing. That Maybe there is something out there that is bigger than us and that we are not random.
 I think if Science went hand in hand with god belief, then it would be too simplistic of an answer that some man made of flesh and bone created the earth, gathered all the elements of the universe to create this world and then put us on it after the animals and creatures lived here for a few million years.  The other thing is that that would mean that after we die, we would have another dimension and would would be physiologically changed, which, living in a fourth dimension is easier for Religious people to believe but not Scientists.
here is something I found on youtube and I have known many many Physicists that actually do believe in God.
Please watch this video and enjoy






Politics and Religion

Isn't there a saying that is something like "Never  talk about Politics or Religion when in Social Gatherings" or something like that? well, I have found that most people talk only of that. 
 These two are the most highly debated topics to mankind. Well, in the USA there is now elections time. People are debating whether or not a "Mormon" can be a President in the USA. South Carolina, You ought to be ashamed. 
 I thought that South Carolina has gotten over their archaic ideas and were not prejudiced but, they have proven to me once again that they are in the South and people there are very much prejudiced. 
To show that  Presidents CAN be apart of religion, here is a list of US Presidents and their religion, or if they are not religious, it is indicated.
My point to all of this is simple. What you believe in God or if you do not believe in God, it will not effect your abilities as President. I am tired of hearing how it does. 
  I am also tired of hearing how the "Mormon Candidate" Mitt Romney will not be a good president because of him being Mormon. C'mon, people, is that the best you can come up with? Really? 
Since when did anyone of the Presidents go to church and the nation criticized them for that? I am really shocked that our nation has been taken back a few steps on the topic. We should be more progressive. We should be moving forward. we are an example to other nations on how to treat others and how elections should run. Shame on all of you for making the campaign dirty. 
 I expected that 175 years ago when Joseph Smith ran for president, but not 2012 when Mitt Romney is running.
