My Abiogenesis Challenge

[miknik5]

How did you come to give the Bible its authority over all other evidence? What evidence did you use to conclude all other evidence may be ignored?

GOD making HIMSELF known?

 

[bhsmte]

GOD is the one who holds all things back but when HE lets go (when HE temporarily removes HIS HEDGE) all the things that we held to as long-held truths will no longer hold

I asked about Nebuchadnezzar

And I asked about gehazzi

Some unexplainable things will happen

Make sure that you do not charge/attribute/blame (curse) GOD for these unexplainable things

Your tendancy to preach and make claims with no evidence, is likely not the best match for the science forum.

 

[AV1611VET]

Faith.

What evidence did you use to conclude all other evidence may be ignored?

I define "faith" as:

Believing something, even if science says otherwise.

Three times is a charm

Not sure charm has a lot to do with it.

LOL

That's true
The looks are very deceiving

I never liked to play that game to begin with

What you see is what you get

For some, well evidenced reality, can be down right scary.

Well thank GOD that doesn't apply here

I'm not scared
Nor do I think I would be described as scary

 

[miknik5]

Are you scared?

 

[bhsmte]

Are you scared?

Of snakes, yes.

 

[HitchSlap]

Are you scared?

I'm a little frightened of heights, spiders and things that go bump in the night.

 

[Paul of Eugene OR]

Faith.I define "faith" as:

Believing something, even if science says otherwise.

But you haven't answered the question. "Faith" is merely a description of how you are acting with regard to the Bible. You haven't shared with us WHY you have that faith.

And it can't be based on evidence. Because you defend your faith even if the evidence says otherwise.

So why do you choose to place your faith in something without evidence? Or, perhaps, in spite of the evidence?

Psychological comfort?

That's reality?
Things that go bump in the night?

 

[miknik5]

Psychological comfort?

Because the reality is that nothing is under our control

One thing I had to learn which was very very hard for me is that all that I have is by HIS GRACE alone

 

[Astrophile]

Both.

I was asking KWCrazy, who said,

that's probably the single craziest thing I've ever heard.

 

[HitchSlap]

That's reality?
Things that go bump in the night?

Sure. What's likely to promote survival;

Assuming a bush rustling is a tiger or just wind?

Ok
Thank you for clarifying
Yes
That is definitely a realistic fear

It's an evolved trait.
