Moon light - the word of God vs falsely so called science

[Ace777]

"Creation science" books (including Demski's) have nothing to offer.

The court ruled his books are not science. I like to read Gerald Schroeder. Of course he is not a christian. So that could be a problem for some people. I am very disappointed with Fancies Collins. His Theistic Evolution is very sloppy and done in a hurry. These people just want to sell books. His book was about how DNA is the "language of God". But Schroeder says ancient Hebrew is the Language of God.

As director of the NIH Collins removed the ban on high risk virus that resulted in the plague that we had. So that makes it difficult for me to endorse him and his books.

"The new process, NIH Director Francis Collins says, "will help to facilitate the safe, secure, and responsible conduct of this type of research." Critics of the studies, meanwhile, are withholding judgment until they see how the review process plays out."

My problem with Schroeder is that his stuff is religiously motivated and not scientific.

This is a weird swerve. It is also not true. The COVID pandemic (not a plague) was not caused by "high-risk virus research". It was a natural virus propagating through the population.

A Phd in physics and earth science from MIT is nothing to sneeze at. Even he was a professor at MIT the leading university.

MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has consistently held the top spot as the world’s leading university according to the QS World University Rankings. Remarkably, MIT has secured this distinction for 13 consecutive years!
Not only is MIT the overall No. 1 university, but it also excels in specific subject areas. In fact, it ranks first in 11 different subjects:

1. Chemical Engineering
2. Civil and Structural Engineering
3. Computer Science and Information Systems
4. Data Science and Artificial Intelligence
5. Electrical and Electronic Engineering
6. Linguistics
7. Materials Science
8. Mechanical, Aeronautical, and Manufacturing Engineering
9. Mathematics
10. Physics and Astronomy
11. Statistics and Operational Research

Additionally, MIT places second in five other subjects: Accounting and Finance, Architecture/Built Environment, Biological Sciences, Chemistry, and Economics and Econometrics1.
If you’re interested in pursuing studies in any of these fields, MIT is undoubtedly an excellent choice!

After Schroeder got his Phd in science THEN he studied religion. You can object to his religion but these are the people who gave us our Hebrew Bible that we use today. People would be amazed if they were to learn how much of our Bible is based on the oral tradition.

I am not going to try to explain it to you because you have to far to go. The conversation has to do with Francis Collins. For WHATEVER my PERSONAL reason is, I can not endorse him. You can do whatever you want if you want to support him in what he is doing,

When I bring up the importance of the oral tradition regarding the Bible, it more often than not is strongly denied.

That doesn't make his religiously bases pseudoscience any less wrong.

I really don't care about MIT's PR blurbs.

I don't care about his religion. I do care that he presents theology and claims it to be scientific. It is not.

Francis Collins wasn't even remotely related to the topic until you brought him up. I don't care about his religious positions at all. The insinuation you made about Collins somehow being responsible for the pandemic is utter nonsense.

PhD.

Ever notice how tens, hundreds of thousands of
scientists just don't count for anything.
But if ONE (Always " BRILLIANT" )PhD holder
offers a religious, deta free objection to ToE,
deep,time, well HE is da man!!


We then see gross bias and, again, intellectual integrity
goes out the window.

This thread is closed for review. It was rejuvenated recently but since it was started, the Statement of Purpose was changed. Please note that the Statement of Purpose includes:

Do not flame other viewpoints. Christianity and creationism cannot be called a myth or fairytales, and evolution should not be called pseudoscience nor should evolution or science be called a religion.

The title alone is a violation now.



Edit - After review, this thread is staying closed. ​
