Questions on Miracles, Sports, and Medicine

Would love Dr. Craig's opinion on the recent "timescape" scientific paper that tries to oppose the lambda cdm model especially since they talk about expansion being more local than universal. Plus its implications on BGV theorem

[@ReasonableFaithOrg]

Since the BGV runs on very minimal assumptions - the main one being that the average rate of expansion is greater than zero - it doesn't appear that it will have much impact on the theorem. The timescape model doesn't exclude expansion. It simply gives a more complex picture of expansion rates over the history of the universe than the uniform rate assumed by LCDM. - RF Admin

Just curious I got a systematic theology by Millard J Erickson would you recommend that I got Bruce Milne book I’m going through now.

2:46 I don’t think this question has been sufficiently answered. The problem is that people from other religions are able to attain the same behaviour that follow from the Holy Spirit through other means. They will have their own supernatural explanations for why they are able to follow moral principles. So, while there may be minor exceptions, there doesn’t appear to be any fundamental difference between these moral systems, as we should expect if the Holy Spirit is real and bringing Christians closer to perfect morality. To explain it, you have to resort to natural explanations which could just as well apply to yourself, if you really think about it.

Many times I pray that a player on the other team be able to rejoin the game after going out with an injury. We don't want to win that way. And of course that all the Dodgers will know the Truth and play their best. I want Yankees players and fans to know Jesus, but during the game, they can offer their own prayers.

Jesus was unable to perform miracles in his hometown among the people who knew him. That tells you the psychological aspect of supposed miracles.
