Evidence for God from Science

catherine ,

I have written a post on this issue - apologetical forums - the Bible and scripture - time of the gentiles

I had the same thoughts and wrote down what I found out and decided to share. It is a long post but one that may shed some light on this subject. I hope this helps.

Just another group trying to prove evolution, in this case with robots. Unless I can see the raw source code and see the injected mutations I discount all of it. It does bring up an interesting subject, that being artificial intelligence. I personally have no problem with smart machines. But self re...

Himantolophus , Does it take away from the Bible in any way to interpret it differently? What about all the progressive creationists who feel "millions of years" does not disagree with the Bible? I think interpretation is the main reason for this struggle. Unfortunately we cannot know for ...

All quote="Himantolophus"]Now I see YEC as "old-fashioned" and I get frustrated when they seem to think "disproving evolution proves creationism". [/quote] Many would argue that the Bible is old fashioned. In fact I know there are chruches out there right now changing s...

To the credit of the ID group they have stayed away from the ages of the earth argument. As most people on this board should know by now that I do lean towards YEC and support several models for that belief. But these are models and not demonstratable facts so on threads like this one I try and limi...

B.W., When Jacob was called Israel he was doing God's work but when he was called Jacob he was not. The Word is very precise. And not just that but structure like a comma. In Isa 61:1 there is a comma that Christ stopped at as written in Luke 4:21. That comma has lasted over 2000 years. I am into al...

B.W., I see your point but have a different take on this. Some prophesies were very detailed and were meant to prepare people. The best example is Dan 9 which foretold to the day that Christ would anounce Himself as King(173,880 days). The end times prophesies are very detailed but we will not know ...

On the Cambrian fossil record First of all it is very hard to make a fossil. Just bury a dead animal in the ground, comeback in a couple of years and what you find will never become a fossil, decay destroys the remains. So to make a fossil requires a few things, the first thing is the dead animal mu...

Canuckster1127 , I did not find anything in your post I disagree with. I only look in the context of many things the literal interpretation first. I agree literal has to be placed in time, who said it, etc. And there are scriptures that have more than one way of looking at them. Like Ps 2, which can...

ARWalace, Thanks for the links. The mutation rates were pretty much what I thought. Do you happen to know of any inverted part of DNA that worked to produce a new protein without any additional changes to the DNA? I can see how parts of DNA being swapped and added to or reduced may work but have pro...

B.W., The section - The Bible and Scripture - the post - The Book of Job - Openning page I think we are to take the scripture very seriously. That means we look at any verse and see if it should be taken quite literal first. Then compare it with the rest of scripture and make sure it fits. If it doe...

ARWalace, I do agree that the average age before death did rise quickly for a while, but it seems to be not moving anymore. Without going into aging, we seem to be hitting a wall. Now of course there may be many reasons for this but one is an increase in genetics defects. The study I posted before m...

ARWalace, "ScienceDaily (Jan. 31, 2007) — In 49 young people who died suddenly and inexplicably at an average age of 14, conventional autopsies found no cause of death. But when Mayo Clinic researchers conducted a sophisticated form of postmortem genetic testing -- known as a molecular autopsy ...

ARWalace, Zoegirl, I hope you don't mind but your posts bring a smile to my face. Not being in the field I use the term evolution as a catch all like most people. I do have a basic understanding of the main parts, microevolution, macroevolution, and natural selection. But even these words have a ran...

Zoegirl, NO, this is simply as example of natural selection as seen through changes in gene frequencies. Natural selection, in and of itself, merely operates on existing genes within the population. Now I am confused. I thought evolution was taking a change to DNA (basic change in gene not there bef...
