NeoPathFinder mission

I am a religious person who is attempting to apply the scientific method to evangelism. (observe, guess, test) I have some theories I want to test, and of course I'm always observing people.

My particular sect is the RLDS/Restoration Branches, a very small offshoot of Latter Day Saintism.

Values that must be assumed

I think people must accept these basic truths as self-evident (i.e. exercise faith in these points) at least hypothetically before it makes sense to try to reason with them.

  • 1. Absolute truth is a universal constant.
  • 2. For all intents and purposes, the observable Universe exists, and must be treated as real.
  • 3. The Universe, in the midst of it's apparent chaos, is orderly and predictable.
  • 4. The scientific discipline, as follows logically from the above statements, is limited to making observations based on the observable Universe.
For more information, I suggest reading C.S. Lewis's "The Abolition of Man" which is not one of his apologetical works defending Christianity but is instead a defense of what some call "natural law" and Lewis calls the "Tao". As such I think most academics would find it reasonable even if they disagree with every single other thing Lewis ever said.
