    To recap, if you don't see it, don't shoot the messenger.
    And I repeat; if you don't agree with the article, go elsewhere to reinforce your agnostic views.
    I appreciate the positive responses, and that's all I'll read on this forum from now on.
    All the rest, don't waste your time here.
    I'm not "enforcing my agnostic views". I'm asking you to clarify which parts you found impressive...

    You'll only read positive responses? So basically you're just looking for people to reinforce your beliefs?

    Was it the "... trillion, trillion, trillion..." part that impressed you? Are you impressed by people throwing around big numbers?

    Is the article impressive only if you want to be impressed? Is that it?

    Which bits of the article do you think hit home?

    I'm sorry if all of this must be spelled out you.
    It confirms you are just looking for an argument. This is not the debate forum.
    All the posters on this forum explained to you how many times before, and you still come back for more "punishment".
    Please let it rest.
    Some of us really love the information we find on the net that confirms the existence
    of God as our Creator.

    I'm not looking for any arguments. I mostly just stumble upon them.

    What have "all the posters on this forum" explained to me "how many times before" and in what way am I looking for "punishment"? TL,DR: "Wut?"

    So you've found information that, to you, confirms your beliefs. I'm asking you to point out which parts in particular impressed you. I would think that you would love to talk about that.

    No it is not the Debate Forum, but it is a debate and discussion forum nevertheless.

    The term for this is 'confirmation bias' and relying on it heavily is a weak way of heading into a discussion on a debate forum such as this. Which bit of the material that you cited in the OP do you think was especially "impressive" or that "confirms" what you already believe in an especially effective way?

    "Has science discovered god?".
    Do you only want "YES"s ???

    Do you want
    "Great link Mammy!"

    Because to be honest it is full of lies and inaccuracies and gross misrepresentation and exaggeration.

    You are not trying hard enough.
    I'm sorry if faith is a swear word to you.
    But do not worry, faith will come to you.

    It doesn't matter how much 'faith' you have, it won't change the fact that science has not discovered God, and the article you linked to contains significant inaccuracies. That you clearly do not want to know about those inaccuracies nor discuss the article with anyone who might point them out only shows that your 'faith' is weak and based on your desires not what you know to be true. You are afraid the truth will destroy your faith.

    Science has not discovered "God" and it never will until there is a clear picture of what God is supposed to be and how one would measure it empirically.

    No matter how hard I try I cannot turn lies into truth.

    No matter how much faith I have the unreal will not become real.

    I am not worried.

    I bet it is the "billions of years" that impress you.

    Not particulary. I am quite impressed though with how humankind managed to figure that out.

    Since God is outside the physical world, then it would be like trying to measure mind, will, and emotions with a scale. Scientists will never discover God with that kind of thinking. But those of us that can use our whole being to help in the discovery do not need an actual measurement to know when we encounter something supernatural. 😏

    Scientists have examined the Shroud of Turin extensively and still can't determine how the image was made. But the believer knows it is supernatural and scientists will never understand it.
