Scientists believe what they believe, all the different theories in science nowadays, because they have very good reasons to believe those things. They believe what they have experienced, based upon all the evidence they have at hand. I believe in the Bible's accuracy, about spiritual things as well as those scientific things it has in it, based upon my experience with God. It is not merely belief and faith, without reason for belief and faith. |

Science is not based on belief systems as religions are. As I said before, science is not like a religion. Please do NOT mix them up. They have good reason to believe (as you say) what is real and what is not. |

But in the Bible, does God ever demand people to believe in him with no evidence at all to back up those claims? No. Paul didn't believe, and through miraculous experience, God drew him to himself. Gideon had trouble believing, and God proved himself to him through miraculous signs. Today is no different. I have come to know God through miraculous experience (The born again experience), and God has proved himself faithful to me ever since. We believe based upon evidence, even though it is an evidence that only will work for those people who have experienced it, and not for everyone. Everyone does have access to it though, if they look for it. That is something I have tried to drive home repeatedly on Entmoot, but everyone ignores me. I wonder why ![]() Quote:

I feel that religion is just a way for people to come to grips with death and to understand things we currently can't explain.

LOL
cassiopeia, I believe I have the right to speak my mind here,as everyone else does. You can rip my belief,therefore I have the right to do the same about evolution. Don't let my thoughts offend you.I won't let your thoughts offend me.I believe the earth was created by God long ago, and that we didn't all just evolve from amoebas.Period.it doesn't add up whatsoever to me,and maybe MY thoughts don't add up for you. ![]() Ah,and I am not ignorant.....I have to read about evolution already.It STILL doesn't add up.More is against that theory than there is with it. oh,but this is all MY opinion,now,isn't it?Take it or leave it,friends ![]() ~Giroth |

I went to Catholic school all my life - as I have said repeatedly - and we were taught evolution in school NOT creationism.

Ah,I can see you support evolution and not creationism.And it is not my point of what
the scientists say,or what you say, but about the past and what makes the MOStT sense.I mean,if we evolved from monkies,for one example,why are the monkies of today still monkies?And it is just silly sounding (to me,this is just MY opinion,even though I had to read all about evolution) that the scientists of today believe that all things and the universe changed from something else.it had to start somewhere.....someone HAD to create the life.*sigh well,I suppose the scientists don't want to base their all-around thoughts on one religion's 'theory'.Well,it's a free country;we can think as we wish,correct? ![]() ~Giroth Last edited by Giroth : 06-01-2003 at 05:18 PM. |
