Follow the logic in the post, Hoydilla. God could have created a world without amputees while still maintaining whatever other requirements he has. The fact that he chose not to means he approves of or doesn't care about people getting limbs amputated. The same goes for rabies and ebola.

That of course does not mean that science has shown that a deity does not exist, or even that there is strong evidence in favor of the non-existence of a deity. It simply means that a deity is not required to understand what we see, and therefore a deity does not enter into scientific discussions.

[/ QUOTE ]

Even that is true, why does science has to prove that god does not exist and not the people who believe in the existanse of God have to show the opposite?

[/ QUOTE ]

Science doesnt have to prove anything of the sort. A few scientists take it upon themselves to say that science has proved that no deities exist, when in fact science has done nothing of the sort. Others, like Richard Dawkins, point out the problems with organized religion, but not with the existence or otherwise of a deity per se.

That said, those who believe in god are far more likely to *say* to scientists 'you must prove that god does not exist'. They say this because they dont understand what science is.

Their is very little logic in reading the ramblings of man who is generalizing something he truly has no concept of, god.

1. god is all powerful

2. amputees exist

Its theoretically possible, yes. Its not really medically possible, no. Women have all of the required components to create and produce a clone, but the mechanism whereby sperm penetrating the egg and the male DNA combining with the female to initiate the next stages in cell division is extremely foolproof.

EDIT: Also, there is no way a female could have male offspring by this method. There isn't a Y chromosome to be found.
