As science & medical research has saved more people than God, should you donate to the NSF instead of church?

You bet, and the Howard Hughes medical center and other places that do not rely of federal funds for stem cell research.... you bet.

yes
Reply:I guess it depends on your definition of the term "saved".


Alot of people have been "saved" from death, but ultimately, they will die, anyway. There is nothing at all wrong with saving human life, nor am I implying such. But we must realize that, in the end, it is a losing battle. All are mortal, and all must die, eventually.


On the other hand, to recieve the gift of eternal life...what is that worth?


By all means, donate to research, please. I do. I am all for new life-saving technology.


On the other hand, don't neglect God.
Reply:saved? Spiritually to go to heaven?





"By Jesus all things consist." so give the credit to Jesus


and help the research too in both areas
Reply:Yes....we should.





There are no Christians in hospitals...
Reply:Has science saved peoples souls
Reply:Would like to know where your figures are coming from. It's funny though that faith motivated individuals were often the driving factors behind medicine in the first place. Care for the poor and the sick is more the mission of the various churches than it will ever be of the NSF.
Reply:Well, I don't believe that anyone can save unless God wills for it to happen. It's wit the Will of God that "medicine" and "science" save people, even if the patient being saved doesn't believe in God. That's just my believe, and anyone's welcome to disagree.





As for donation, I don't think we should choose a certain organization to donate to -- unless it's just some personal preference. We should donate to as many as we can as long as we know that the money will be put to some good use. I don't have ANY problems donating my money to medical/science researches than to a Mosque or Church or Temple.
Reply:I donate to SETI, and a few other medical research organizations like the Cancer Society. So I think that you are spot on.
