Islam, Insan dan Physics

Assalamualaikum w.b.t.

Bismillahhirahmannirahhim

One of the most profound ideological thinking is positivism that rises during the age of enlightenment is thought to be the reason of since up rises. What this ideological thought is that something must be prove that it is real using the six sense of human. If something that cannot be prove to exist, that it cannot be assure that it really existed.

This reasoning that something must be prove to be existed with the human sense in order to prove it is real are somewhat similar to the banner of many amateur scientist. From this notation of thinking also rises the conflict with faith and religion. As usually faith and religion require the follower to submit to something that is out of the human senses. Amateur since will shout and linger around the topic that angel, demon, blessing and heaven are made up story because it cannot be prove it is real.

Hmmm....

I use the word "amateur" in labeling this people, because as scientist grew and sail in mighty ocean of knowledge, he will found that mountain of scientific knowledge cannot be will never be prove existed using only the human sense.

The human sense are extremely extremely extremely limited. We can only see very very little range of light that is only from the range 380nm-750nm, our eyes cannot see the ultraviolet nor the infrared. Our eyes only can hear in very little range of frequency. But yet some still argue that something is only existed went we can sense it.

In physics they are enormous concept that cannot be prove or measure yet, but thousand of physicist flock around it and believe it. Dark matter for instance, it is a very crucial concept that many physics believe on it, then yet again with all the mighty instrument we have, we can't yet to prove it is real. Multi dimension universe is another concept that challenge human imagination, until now no one can prove it is there or even show it how it would look like. Then yet again it never stop physicist to use the concept in explaining the string/ membrane theory.

Human sense and thought are very limited in nature, we cannot imagine how electron look like, how the 4 dimension world look like nor how the neutrino is shaped. Then again, this limitation never stop us physicist to believe it is real, because we understand that are something that is beyond human capability to sense it or even to imagine it.

So amateur scientist who believe in since have really to step back and reexamine there argument that heaven, hell, angel and demon does not exist because we cannot prove it existed.
