[@AllOtherNamesUsed]

If you want to go deeper, see the most scientifically studied artifact on earth, the Shroud of Turin which essentially witnesses the passion, death and resurrection of Christ and defies scientific explanation as we understand it. The most vocal scientist against it ended up proving the carbon dating that the media touts to debunk it was itself false, and became a great defender of it before he died.

[@reasonandsciencecatsboardcom]

@@seanjahangiri7266 Comparing worldviews - there are basically just two Either there is a God, a conscious intelligent mind at the bottom of all reality, or not. Based on Plato's principle of Contradiction and Excluded Middle: either that proposition is true or its negation is true, and contradictory propositions cannot both be true at the same time. The dichotomy that either there is a God, or there is not a God, are jointly exhaustive: everything must belong to one part or the other, and mutually exclusive: nothing can belong simultaneously to both parts. Only one worldview can be true. If the various worldviews have mutually exclusive truth claims, only one can be true. A true system of thought must be comprehensive of thought and life. It must possess consistency and coherence in its overall claims. But most importantly, the system must correspond to reality, past, present, and future, natural and supernatural. And all major systems of thought contain key truth claims which are contrary to those of all other systems. A worldview must be consistent and explain the evidence, phenomena, and observations in the natural world adequately. Norman Geisler: The creation-evolution debate is not religion versus science or the Bible versus science, it's about good science versus bad science. Likewise, it's not faith versus reason, it's about reasonable faith, versus unreasonable faith. The deepest intellectual battle is not between science and religion (which, as we have seen, can operate with a great deal of accord), but between naturalism and theism-two broad philosophical (or metaphysical) ways of looking at the world. Neither view is a scientific view; neither view is based on or inferable from empirical data. Metaphysics, like numbers and the laws of logic, lies outside the realm of human sense experience. So the issue of naturalism versus theism must be decided on philosophical grounds Metaphysical naturalism is the view that nothing exists but matter/energy in space-time. Naturalism denies the existence of anything beyond nature. The naturalist rejects God, and also such spooky entities as souls, angels, and demons. Metaphysical naturalism entails that there is no ultimate purpose or design in nature because there is no Purposer or Designer. On the other hand, theism is the view that the universe is created by and owes its sustained existence to a Supreme Being that exists outside the universe. These two views, by definition, contradict each other. Claim: you are OBVIOUSLY making a false dichotomy - that is, you are considering ONLY TWO options - namely, random chance, or a god. Have you considered that there may be OTHER explanations? Reply: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If the claim is that other worldviews exist, the claimer must be able to back up the claim, otherwise, it can be dismissed without evidence. Any worldview is limited in that it does not grant absolute truth, but only yields degrees of probability or likelihood. Bayesian inference is a method of statistical inference in which Bayes' theorem is used to update the probability of a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. Bayesian inference has found application in a wide range of activities, including science, theology, and philosophy. After careful examination, all we can do is come to instant-deduction to the best explanation. 1. Accepting the best explanation maximizes the robustness of one’s position relative to accepting any other available explanatory hypothesis. 2. It is reasonable to maximize the robustness of one’s position. 3. One of the explanatory hypotheses should be accepted. 4. Thus: It is reasonable to accept the best explanation. 6 Either there is a God - creator and causal agency of the universe, or not. God either exists or he doesn’t. These are the only two possible explanations. The law of excluded middle is given the name of law for a reason it's called the law of excluded middle so when we say something is either a or it is not a there's no middle there no third option it is one of the fundamental laws of logic. It's a true dichotomy it's either God or not God. Naturalism & materialism: Naturalism & materialism: “the philosophical belief that everything arises from natural properties and causes, and supernatural or spiritual explanations are excluded or discounted.” Materialism is an atheistic worldview that sees all reality as the result of accidental collisions and combinations of elementary particles governed by a mysteriously fortuitous set of laws that control how matter interacts. It’s a worldview devoid of higher meaning and purpose. “the doctrine that nothing exists except matter and its movements and modifications.” - Multiverse - Virtual particles - Big Bang - Accretion theory - Abiogenesis - Common ancestry - Evolution In regards of the origin of the universe, it was either eternal or had a beginning, in that case, the proponent of naturalism would have to give an explanation of the cause of the universe, and/or explain how it could exist eternally, without a beginning. The universe is finely tuned, so then he has the option of multiverses, where one would be life-permitting ( ours ). In regards to abiogenesis, he has random chance, and afterwards, evolution. He has to provide good reasons why these alternatives have more/better explanatory power than design. The chance to get a universe with stars is 10^229 If we sum up the total number of amino acids for a minimal Cell, there would have to be 560 proteins x 400 amino acids = 224.000 amino acids, which would have to be bonded in the right sequence, choosing for each position amongst 20 different amino acids, and selecting only the left-handed, while sorting out the right-handed ones. That means each position would have to be selected correctly from 40 variants !! that is 1 right selection out of 40^224.000 possibilities !! Theism: - Ontological Arguments - Cosmological Arguments - Teleological Arguments - Theological Arguments - Moral Arguments - Transcendental Arguments - Transcendent eternal God/Creator - created the universe and stretched it out - Created the Galaxies, Stars, Planets, the earth, and the moon - Created life in all its variants and forms - Created man and woman as special creation, upon his own image - Theology and philosophy: Both lead to an eternal, self-existent, omnipresent transcendent, conscious, intelligent, personal and moral Creator. The Christian faith based on the Bible: - The Bible: The Old Testament is a catalog of fulfilled prophecies of Jesus Christ, and his mission, death, and resurrection foretold with specificity. - Archaeology: Demonstrates that all events described in the Bible are historical facts. - History: Historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth, and really did physically rise from the dead - The Bible's witnesses: There are many testimonies of Jesus doing miracles still today, and Jesus appearing to people all over the globe, still today. - End times: The signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are occurring in front of our eyes. New world order, microchip implant etc. - After-life experiences: Credible witnesses have seen the afterlife and have come back and reported to us that the afterlife is real. 1. If the weight of the Christian worldview is making sense above 50 % compared to atheism, or any different religion, then it is rational to believe in Christ, and commit living as a Christian. 2. Christianity has at least a 50 % chance of being true. 3. Therefore, it is rational to commit to live as a Christian.

He was not born in Bethlehem as that story was added by Mark and Luke to give Jesus a backstory and a genealogy to align with claimed messiah. The gospels were written specifically to promote a belief proclaiming “good news” and their bias is discerned in their content. Think of it as early Christian propaganda designed to promote the belief that Jesus was the Jewish messiah. We do not know who wrote the gospels but we do know that they were not eyewitnesses of the events that they claim to describe. They were not written by Matthew , Mark, Luke or John as these names were added in the second century. The gospel labelled Mark is the earliest gospel.

Alexandra Hippisley christianity is not a monolith. Neither is the belief in an intelligent designer. The Bible was written in many styles over 1000 years by many authors of different age and cultures. The main message is if there was a creator and that we are imperfect and needed a Savior. Believing on that Savior, Jesus who paid the penalty for your sin will be the ticket to the presence of the creator for eternity. That is what makes a Christian. There are still arguments on which parts are poetic, factual, or the other writing styles.

Also I did not say it was SIN to not believe all the stories in the Bible, instead I "wondered" how they choose which stories to believe. None of that was negative, not was it gossip, nor was it judgmental.

@Jeffery Kongolo Google "Intelligent design" and this is the first thing that comes up "Intelligent design (ID) is a pseudoscientific argument for the existence of God, presented by its proponents as "an evidence-based scientific theory about life's origins". Time and again, science has shown that methodological naturalism can push back ignorance, finding increasingly detailed and informative answers to mysteries that once seemed impenetrable: the nature of light, the causes of disease, how the brain works. Evolution is doing the same with the riddle of how the living world took shape. Creationism, by any name, adds nothing of intellectual value to the effort. If people like you win the argument then it would set science and scientific research back 150 years.

That’s were I end up with, how does those years affect our relationship with The Lord Jesus Christ, and thru the Word which can lead us in the understanding of what’s happening currently, and how the Word of God is applied to greater than our understanding effect in todays societal climate?

@@a.r.npotential150 there is no word of God, theres the word of man only. Hes a figment of mans imagination. Remember theres been thousands of gods througout millenia. All worshipped by man, and all based on faith in an imaginary diety, dsigned by man, for man. Clearly they cant all be right, and the only difference between one believer of one God, and the next believer of another is the one of thousands they happen to believe in was the last one and the right one. Its laughably silly to be so sure one was right! To demonstrate this you wont believe in the Inca God, Zeus, nor Alla? Nor for that matter any of the prehistoric Gods who were worshipped BEFORE Christianity. ..

You should listen to the “Bible in a year” KZbin series with father Mike Schmitz. A few passages each day with a 5 minute discussion about the meaning of those passages by a theologian. And those 5 minute insights make you think of the depth of those passages in ways you couldn’t know without a degree in theology

Listening to Stephen Meyer talk about his childhood, and the questions he had as child, helped me realize I am not alone in the existential crisis I had as a pre-teen and on and off throughout my life ever since. I found great comfort in hearing Stephen asking my questions in his own life, and having an highly educated and scientific man like Stephen come to the answers I hoped were true.

Dennis Vance how would you know? That’s a very subjective statement. I’ve a first class honour in biochemistry and if you really wanted to understand this topic you wouldn’t be listening to a pseudoscientific and a scientist who looks the other way when science contradicts his beliefs. In the words of Francis Collins..... The evidence that all living things are descended from a common ancestor is overwhelming. Then you could read one of Kenneth R Millers books (also a Christian).

Matt and Cindy Thoen both state that they are Christians and I’ve shared the testimony one. Of course how you define what it is to be a Christian varies depending on which of the 20,000 or so denominations of Christianity you or they align with. You’ll have to take them at their word and do your own research.

Thus is such a powerful discussion between two scientists who can present the current state of scientific knowledge to the general public. It is done without the presumptuousness, confrontational tactics of many who either attempt to defend evolution or even the approach of some theologians.
