I want to say hi to everyone on the Science Forum of CF. I am Storm. I am a Christian.
I have only posted once or twice on this section of the forum and have not made a big hit with the Atheist. But since I will be posting more here, I thought it better if I try to explain how I feel about this forum and its participants. So far I am not impressed. It seems like most of your time is spent with petty arguments. I think both sides, Christian and Atheist, play into this waste of time. I really do not see too much science being discussed. That is not to say that I believe your minds to be void of the concept of intelligent dialogue. You just are not putting it into practice. I hope to avoid that, and instead bring a sense of exploration, light, and love, into our discussions.
I posted on the thread creation vs. evolution. If you read my post you would find, that I do not think anything that is true, can be apposed, to anything that is true. Thus I welcome science into my walk with Christ. I believe we as a creature of God are in a state of continuous evolution. We are learning continually more and more about what it is to be human. That is good. Truth in Science will not turn off the light of faith. It instead will assist the illumination of our path.
But before I get started I thought I should explain what started me off on the wrong foot. I told an atheist that I would not debate him about God. That is trueâ¦I will not. I am sorry that he became insulted when I said that he was in the dark and it would be a waste of my time. Please allow me to clarify. It is not that I do not want to tell you of my love for God, because I do. But I will not debate that which I know is true, but you have yet to know. For exampleâ¦think of yourself outdoors with a blind man, and you are trying to explain the beautiful blue sky. You could spend days and get nowhere. For how do you tell him, who has never seen, about the color blue? Would it not compound your dilemma if he were to argue with you about the blue and tell you that you were wrong? My Faith is so much more than one color of the spectrum. Even a rainbow of the most beautiful vivid colors, would pale against my love for God. Atheists are blind to my Faith because they are blind to the Truth of God. So I will not debate you. Still I very much do want to speak with you and have you glimpse the world as I see it. My faith you cannot see but the words I speak from the Spirit can be heard. So how about it? Can your atheist minds open and allow in a little quiet thunder?
I am not a great scientist. But we all live in a fascinating universe created by God, full of mystery and beauty. I have many questions and thoughts, that I would like you to explore with me, and if along the wayâ¦you should see a ray of light upon our path. That is for you. It is your beginning.
May God bless us all!!
