In any case. Why do you believe that the earth goes around the sun? The science? Or blind faith in your elementary school teacher
let's leave the cheap shots in the locker room.
We all create our own reality be it true or false and if an atheist says he doesn't exist then he doesn't exist,this is not true to me tho as he does exist in my view
no, we do not create our own reality because denial is not changing the facts that the reality exists, it is just lying to oneself.
in fact science will say plenty to refute a literal biblical creation
this is the crux of the whole issue. since secular science tries to do things through the natural way, omit & ignore God, comes up with alternatives to the Bible, why would any christian accept their findings? when did science receive the authority to overrule God's word?
in all my conversations not one person, who has challenged me, has constructively criticised or analyzed one scientific conclusion or theory.
they have all defended secular science without thought and have acknowledged accepting their 'discoveries' because they have been tested over and over.
not one has said, 'hey wait a minute, this is secular science which doesn't believe in God, maybe we should take another look at the evidence with God in the picture.'
because secular science confirmed a few things that God did, over-turning some views held by a minority but prominent group of people, a majority of people have jumped on the secularscience bandwagon and basically giving it a blank check to do and say what it wants while ignoring that God's word is above science and is the only infallible document we possess.
just because science found some of the things that God did does it mean that it finds them all or is correct when it comes to alternatives to the Gen. account.
as stated in the above post, too many people jump on the literal phrasing of the Bible to justify their participation in secular science without discernment and it gets them into positins they cannot get out of.
this is what i mean by saying the most unliteral people are the most literal for when it is in their favor, criticizing others or pointing out supposed fallacies, the stickto the most strigent of literal meanings of the word or words.
in contrast, when they want to justify or excuse their 'theology' then they revert back to being unliteral and find any wing nut alternative to support their purposes.
i have seen this through
all the dissenting posts that have been written in response to what i have put on the board.
everyone has gone to science over God's word, for me i do not believe that creation can be fit in any scientific model that is define by secular science. it was a on time, 6 day supernatural event which places it outside of evolution and outside of the scope of science.
and no matter how hard anyone tries, they are not going to get the answers they seek as long as they omit God fromall their research, theories,conclusions and work. those people are headed in the wrong direction and use the excuse, 'we can't fit God in the test tube' well who said you should?
that mentality shows that a person's mind is stuck on one way of doing things and cannot comprehend that God does not work that way.
