Yes, many regard the scientific study of God's creation as a calling.Such as back when the earth presented to us that the whole universe orbited her?
But are they called into the laboratory or field, in the same way that God calls His children into the pulpit or mission field?
Scientists are not afraid of the Bible. Scientists who are Christians are not, of course, and atheists just don't care.The scientific method.
I would get moderated if I answered that.

The heavens, in fact all of creation, declares the glory of God. To study it, and share what they have learned is indeed a calling.Perhaps that's the problem?
They think God called them to be a scientist, when instead God was calling them elsewhere?
They need no courage, because there is no threat. The only threat comes from those who would weaponize the Bible with lliteraliam to advance their political agenda.Where, in your opinion, do you think they get their courage?
I agree.
I totally disagree.

I believe that was born from religious beliefs before science.Such as back when the earth presented to us that the whole universe orbited her?
Some are, yes. An example is Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.I believe that was born from religious beliefs before science.

God has infinite ways of calling us to him, some is through science.Perhaps that's the problem?

Sorry, I'm just unable to define for God how and where He calls us to Him.Um ... no.
God doesn't need science to call someone into his respective mission field (such as the pulpit, the mission field, or a lab).
That's like you telling your boss ...
"If you hire me, I'll work in whatever department I think is calling me to work in."
Yes I did answer your question, you either failed to comprehend it or chose to ignore to it because it is an inconvenient truth which clashes with your beliefs.No. You shifted the burden of proof from you having to demonstrate that 1) Mt. Everest's build rate was constant, slow, and gradual, and 2) it's impossible for the conditions mentioned to be different to what is assumed.
I am very familiar with this tactic.
I asked. You did not answer.
Yes because as explained the sea floor, sea level and mountain are all part of the lithosphere which is sinking into the asthenosphere due to the weight.If the sea floor drops, due to pressure weighing on it, will the height of a mountain's measurement above sea level be the same, as previous?
the biggest problem with all of the attempts to make the flood happen in a year, is it would kill everyone on the ark an all the fish. All that energy would build up and would super heat the water and the air.The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits. Genesis 7:20
Thanks for that.
#2 The Global Flood - Mountains
Myth: During the Biblical flood, mountains were as tall as Mount Everest, and could not have been covered by water, up to 270 inches.
Fact:
Mountain Ranges Rise Dramatically Faster Than Expected
Two new studies by a University of Rochester researcher show that mountain ranges rise to their height in as little as two million years -- several times faster than geologists have always thought."We've always assumed that the folding and faulting in the upper crust produced high elevation mountains. Now we have data on ancient mountain elevation that shows something else is responsible for the mountains' uplift."
Geologists raise the speed limit for how fast continental crust can form
Study suggests parts of the Sierra Nevadas formed in a “geologic instant,” more than twice as fast as previously thought.
The assumptions on how things happened or progressed in the past, has led to errors in conclusions reached.
There is no evidence that mountains were as tall as Mount Everest, thousands of years ago.
The height of mountains then, are not known, and so, an assumption cannot be used as evidence to claim that the flood waters did not indeed rise and cover the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits, as stated in the Bible.
MYTH
That was a good one.Short and sweet.
the biggest problem with all of the attempts to make the flood happen in a year, is it would kill everyone on the ark an all the fish. All that energy would build up and would super heat the water and the air.
Not generally.Would you agree that scientists create the templates that are used against the Bible?
I would say people do that.
