Evidence for God from Science

In case anyone is curious, because the "Christian cocoon" idea is as applicable - I don't say the idea is correct - to campus-based Christian private schools as to Christian homeschoolers and because Christian homeschoolers are a form of Christian private education (in CA many/most homesc...

Where does the idea come from that homeschoolers keep their children utterly isolated from the world? Seriously?! Homeschooled children never go to church? Homeschooled children never go to Sunday School? Homeschooled children never go to AWANA and groups such as Royal rangers? Homeschooled childre...

Has anyone seen this video? If not, you should. It will send chills down your spine. It is frightening, yet it is also uplifting--especially the end. AMERICA! WAKE UP!!! This video also supports what I've been saying for years about public education: it is probably the #1 most important tool in the ...

Pete As always, well put! Of course I like to ponder God's mysteries, too. But, sometimes I get dizzy trying to wrap my head around some things--take eternity for example! How do you explain or make sense of eternity? So, when I find myself scratching my head over some of these things, I find it eas...

Yeah, inherited nice collection of smileys. I plan to enlarge that. :wave: And welcome, Jack. Can I ask you what the significance is of "1/137"? Sorry, I missed it previously. As a Science teacher I will let you think. :wave: I had to look it up. Never heard of it before. But then again, ...

You guys are a hoot!!! I'm learning things here I never thought I'd learn here!!

I hadn't found out the details until just now. It was called something like the Emmett Till Case. The aftermath got most of the news, but you must get that on your own. I'm making this sort of an allegory, if that's the right word. Have him stand for all of us. Have his bragging and pestering the l...

I was always taught that the doctrine of the Trinity was a supernatural mystery--that we will never understand it completely--especially here on earth. I find trying to pick apart that mystery to be very frustrating and so I would rather spend my time encountering God in nature, in each other, and i...

What???? I think I may have missed something somewhere....

Ucky duck ... re a couple of JWs' "proof-texts" SoA cited ... at least a couple are kind of ironic. Before going there, however, it should be pointed out that even when God states heaven to be His dwelling place, this does not preclude God being also present throughout creation. So the WT...

Isn't there something in the Scriptures about not "playing" with the enemy? Casting your pearls before swine? I'm not saying that atheists are swine, but the point would be that it would be as useless an effort as it would to be casting pearls into a pig pen. Does that make sense? I would ...

Thank you for sharing about yourself CT, I don't debate evolutionists either because it is a non-winnable argument. I leave evolutionists to their religion and I expect the same in turn to me. Its a strawman and quite an insult to say such, no one worships evolution, nor it is a religion, nor I or ...

Tawny: Also, take heart. You know, St. Augustine lived a terrible, sinful, and worldly existence. He caroused, drank, and even had a child out of wedlock. He was a pagan. His mother, St. Monica, never gave up on him. She prayed for him for 30 years. He became one of the greatest defenders of Christi...

What must be asked is WHY are you going or not going? Yes, I do think this is the key. As I have been pondering this longer, I think he is almost using that teaching from his youth as an excuse. He will occasionally pray before meals. He loves to talk about evolution/Creation (he believes in a lite...

This was a response to one of alter's comments in another forum (body-building). I thought it was funny--and I hope it's ok to post it here. I love the old Twilight Zone episodes!
