Bill Nye, I am an aerospace engineer who works for NASA (30+ years now!) and I am a young-earth creationist. I do know why you hate Christians, though: "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." (John 15:18-19) Please know, however, that there is forgiveness for you in Christ Jesus. Jesus died for you on the cross, so that you may live again -- good news indeed! - Jeff the Lutheran Aerospace Engineer Guy

so according to this bloke, it was monks who started science. He belongs back in that video above 'Lies You Learned in School' to utter such ignorance. Science predates Christian monks in Europe by many hundreds, if not a thousand years, thanks to Archimedes, just to name one scientist. Is he trying to infer that their God directed the discipline of science to these monks? Well, that's a shot very wide of the goal. If scientific enquiry is from divine intervention, I wonder which one of the Greek's pantheon was responsible?

Harry Beau "so according to this bloke, it was monks who started science." Nope. I am refuting the assertion that "all" scientists are atheists. "Science predates Christian monks in Europe by many hundreds, if not a thousand years, thanks to Archimedes, just to name one scientist." True... In fact science is the study of God's creation, which dates back to the beginning of time (by definition). Scientists throughout history have been believers and non-believers. That was my point.

Thank you - Glad you cleared that up. I think you chose a bad witness there, in that case. I wouldn't want to debate the earth or the universe and its age or origin; it's just a 'stage' us humans are going through. What I find most interesting are ardent assertions that the Bible is true throughout.

Here’s why the Reformation really happened: infused righteousness verses imputed righteousness. The Romanist cult believes in infused righteousness which is about works, maintaining a state of grace through keeping the 7 sacraments less last rites, verses ALL that Jesus Christ did for those whose heart HE has changed. Through the requirements of the 7 sacraments the Romanist cult denies that Jesus Christ did it ALL and that He was lying when He said “it is finished”. Read the 95 Theses and you’ll get a better idea of why it should be called the Romanist cult.

At the very end of the video I realized what the Bill Nye clips reminded me of; Did anyone else watch Clint Eastwood's speech at the RNC? I mean, obviously Clint made a little bit more sense, but they both had very similar speech styles. Specifically, in their ability to make a viewer think, "What the heck is this guy rambling about, and where is he trying to go with it?"

Pastor Fisk, As a teacher in a Lutheran Day School, I am asked questions like this. I teach what the Bible says and try to answer any questions students have and help them know how to respond ... as Christians. I think sometime you come across like a "smart aleck". I don't think we want to teach our young people to respond this way. Opponents put us down, but that doesn't mean we should do the same. Remember you are teaching us how to respond as Christians as well. not just knowledge.

The thing about the stars as it relates to young Earth theory is based on the assumption that light always travels at the same rate. This is not something we can know for sure. It's true that it appears to travel at the same rate as far as our own experience goes, but when you take into consideration the fact that our own world is but a negligible portion of the entire universe, saying that light must necessarily travel at the same rate just because we have observed it as such is a bit like saying you know how a newly discovered animal species will behave from now on based on 20 seconds of observing its behavior. How do we know it doesn't suddenly accelerate after 500 billion miles of travel. We can't, because there is yet no way for us to test that hypothesis, the only way we have ever been able to record the speed of light is using distances compared to the whole known universe are negligible.

Rev Fisk, I absolutely agree with you and your premises. However, there were a couple of times that I winced and thought "he could have done better on that one" - plate tectonics for example. The text blurb helped, but I felt a couple of times like you were enjoying berating him so much that you put your foot in your mouth. I was glad that you brought up the fact that most Muslims are creationist- ever seen the "Atlas of Creation"? I disagree with its premise, but it's a good resource.

Hey, you're doing a great job! I've done your approach MANY times and see that it is a waste of time to try to be rational and honest with irrational and dishonest people like Nye. So, for me, I cut right to the chase and say I am a creationist, period. I believe that right from the start from all the knowledge we have that it makes sense that somehow there was a creation that happened supernaturally because nothing can NOT create something naturally. I don't go into my God, any other gods or whatever, because that is not the point of the beginning fundamental question of how could nothing create something naturally. I then say that it makes no sense to debate people who prove themselves irrational and dishonest from the start of it all. So if you don't believe in creation supernaturally from the start, tell me how it happened naturally. From that, you will get a bunch for farting smoke screens to avoid the question. A few will give their "scientific" explanation which will prove they don't know what nothing means. Or, they'll say we just don't know yet but all the rest of it makes sense. I don't let them jump to other subjects when it is clear they can't handle the beginning subject rationally and honestly and you'll see them trying desperately attempting to change the subject because they are dishonest and deceitful. With such people you're wasting your time to go beyond the fundamental beginning. If people are not honest and rational about 1 + 1 equalling 2 then don't expect them to be honest about any math beyond that. Again, it's a waste with such people. I do have to admit though, it's fun going on with them and just destroying these idiot atheists. They call themselves "free thinkers" and the reality is, they're free of thinking. So you fools calling me a stupid creationist, you tell me how it happened naturally from the start. Now watch the stupid fools attempt to. LOL.

Another great video! There are more of us with multiple advanced degrees who do not believe in macro-evolution than Bill would believe, methinks. The arguments against evolution are growing, while the evidence which was thought to support evolution (Haeckle's faked embryo drawings, etc.) is showing signs of fatal flaws (missing intermediate species, etc.). I'll keep my faith in Scripture & stay skeptical about abiogenesis. May God bless you, your work and those you love. Bill has slipped a belt.

I really like what you're doing Pastor Fisk, I really do. Many people now who take science as truth and throw religion out the window are quite honestly misconstrued from the truth. There is something to be said about the man who works to avidly to defend his cause whether or not that cause is right or wrong. I just happen to know you're right. Also, I studied a bit of philosophy in which many classify as Apologetics and I am curious to know how much of this similar philosophy you know.

Hoping that my admission of being both Christian and believing in the Bible will help others, I admit that belief in the Scriptures requires belief in Genesis, Adam and the Fall, or else there is no need for a Savior.

"Genesis is not a textbook and it should not be read as one." Wonderful. Remember some of Jon's earlier videos, about creation? How, if you don't have the idea about the Creation, it kinda screws every other doctrine -- indeed, the Scriptures -- up? If you want to be an evolutionist, fine. Just do it with the understanding that Scripture and the theory (as it IS only a theory) are somewhat irreconcilable and exclusive to each other.

"Adam and Eve never existed" That is what we call an unprovable assertion used to make a point. "Evolution is a theory based on pure evidence," Well, it is one attempt to interpret the facts, but hardly the only one, as Creationism uses the same facts, with a completely different inerpretation. "Your beliefs are based on what people wrote 2000 years ago." Your beliefs are based on what people wrote barely more than 100 years ago, and the Old Testament is much older than 2000 years.

Let the love of Christ then and not just head knowledge be the difference.

The biggest disagreement with evolution I have is that it argues that life began where there was no life. And then it goes on to say that life can only come from where there is life. That a soup of chemicals, containing the same constituent elements as amino acids, can be subjected to enormous amounts of energy and turn some of those chemicals into amino acids is used as proof. Until we actually make some kind of cell, with structure and that reproduces, in a way that even comes close to replicating what is claimed to be the conditions of earth billions of years ago, I won't be convinced. As a side note, you definitely need a thorough knowledge of the theory of evolution to be a mechanical engineer. Oh wait, you don't.

No, not confessional. Genesis is not a textbook and it should not be read as one. The Roman Catholic Church, which has half of the Christian population, has issued an official statement accepting evolution. That combined with the other protestant denominations that also accept evolution and you have a majority. My argument was that "Creationist" is not synonymous with "Christian", which Fisk seems to indicate in this video. It can't be synonymous because most Christians are not creationists.

well most engineers is pretty well educated and fairly smart. and you're not very smart or educated if you honestly belive the invisible man is behind anything. If a guy openly thinks there's talking snakes and accepts stories as facts, with no evidence, he's in no position to be a engineer.

It doesn't screw anything up. God still created the universe and everything in it. He either guided evolution as it went along or simply put it in motion knowing the outcome. There still was an Adam and Eve and a Fall. Also... please look up the definition of Theory. It is a widely accepted set of ideas. The scientific definition is different than what you think it means.

I just have a question. Rev. Fisk always says that the resurection of Christ can be historically proven and I know that the Bible is the best (and most accurate) historical proof of this. Were there perhaps other documents or accounts that had stated this?

Bot sure if this helps, but a channel called InspiringPhilosophy has some videos on evidence for the resurrection

Now remember, the LCMS supports Creation (as the scriptures describe literally), but not Creationism (the idea that the book of Genesis is a science textbook).

I don't think many creationists would accept your definition of creationism, Aaron.

I don't agree with your perspective (which seems to be some sort of young Earth creationism if I understand you, I'm a theistic evolutionist personally), but I definitely agree that Bill Nye is being full of crap here. He's just using his internet street cred to be a bully for Atheism. Bill Nye's lost a lot of the respect he built up with me as a kid loving his specials.

I like the way you think and argument, but please don't assume all christians don't believe in evolution, it's just not true.

Really? It's scientific? What's the definition of science? What I learned throughout my entire academic career was that it is "a systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation." Show me an experiment that even CAN prove evolution. All you've got are observations that can be explained at least a hundred different ways. That's what I say of your "fossil record as well as in DNA testing" argument. It is AN explanation, but hardly the only one.

That's correct. Even Atheism is technically a religion, but people always argue that they belong to no religion within Atheism. Now, personally, I don't believe in a god. I don't believe that there is some higher being, I couldn't really tell you what I believed in if you asked. I honestly don't know. However, personally I don't believe in a god, and that is my belief. If you do, then so be it, I'll leave you to that. And I actually must agree that he is wrong on many of his points.

Buddy, it really does screw it up, and to be honest - and I'm not trying to be mean here - it doesn't sound like you understand the difference between macro and micro evolution. which is okay - they aren't widely used terms. micro-evolution can be believed by a Christian - from a Christian perspective, God created everything in six literal days, and continues to help His creatures out by changing them little by little over the years, but they don't become entirely new species.
