Science is Public
(3)
Since seeing the previously mentioned installment of the 700 Club I have been thinking about how to construct such an experiment. How would it be possible to design a foolproof experiment? Nothing like it has ever been attempted so far as I know. At least nothing very public. Certainly there have been millions, perhaps billions, maybe trillions, of private experiments done in that regard. I myself performed one or two such experiments many years ago. In those experiments I 'detected no God.'
But I do not doubt at all that others have 'detected God' in their personal experiments.
What we are looking for here is a public experiment. Various folks can detect God or not detect God in their private experiments, but those results tend to cancel each other. Most folks would not accept the results of another's private experiment. Science is public. So we need a public experiment. If science is ever to prove the existence of God it must do so in a very public way: it must produce an understandable experiment, the results of which unambiguously demonstrate that God exists.
