    logic can't "defeat" god indeed. If god doesn't exist then there is no question. If god does exist we can only defeat our preconceptions and the rules we impose on god. Commented Mar 11, 2025 at 15:45
  • If science proves some belief of Buddhism wrong, then Buddhism will have to change. That's irrelevant, since the question is about god. Commented Mar 11, 2025 at 17:25
  • If something can be refuted or altered by science then it is basically part of science. Commented Mar 12, 2025 at 23:46

    @ScottRowe but we may not no whether science will be able to refute or alter something yet. imagine being back in ancient greece with the belief that zeus is making lightning and thunder. people didn't know yet that there would be a scientific explanation for that. I think it would be inaccurate to tell those ancient greeks that zeus is part of science. It became part of science later. Just like that the rebirth of buddhism might or might not be eventually proveable/refuteable by science or not. We don't know yet whether it will be part of science. Commented Mar 13, 2025 at 9:45
