7: That the Truth of reason is not contrary to the Truth of Christian Faith
THE natural dictates of reason must certainly be quite true: it is impossible to think of their being otherwise. Nor again is it permissible to believe that the tenets of faith are false, being so evidently confirmed by God. Since therefore falsehood alone is contrary to truth, it is impossible for the truth of faith to be contrary to principles known by natural reason.
. . . . . Saint Thos Aquinas Of God and His Creatures

The FACTS are the same for both camps- but the evos go way beyond the facts

And there, I think, is the nub of it.

I’m not much into Science, so I listen and try to understand what I can. What is clear to me, and to what I find violent objection, is that some science advocates (Darwinian Mullahs and Imams, I call them) use Science to justify sweeping religious conclusions that take Science (Evolution specifically) well beyond the realm justifying their reason for existence. If, in the process of the application of the principles of Alinsky and Goebbels to Evolution, these Darwinian Mullahs and Imams exceed even the simple bounds of Science alone, then this should not be an occasion of stupefaction.

[[I’m not much into Science, so I listen and try to understand what I can.]]

I’m only slightly into science- mild itnerest I guess it could be described as- what I loathe though are scientists who insist that hteir word is infallible while God’s word is fallible- Yet they stand on a far greater amount of faith than We Christians do because they have to put hteir faith in a ‘force’ incapable of intelligent design that somehow ‘created’ intelligently designed, irreducibly complex systems by the trillions-

Science is compatible with Holy Scriptures, and ifnact supports Holy Scripture, but evolution is not science, it is faith in a supernatural ‘force’ that somehow, agaisnt impossible odds at every turn, created irreducibly complex information out of what? Dirty Chemicals? Can’t happen-

I don’t mind scientists havign their viewpoints, (If they want to go to hteir grave believing they are nothign more than descendents of primates- then that’s their problem and they have a rude awakenign coming to them), however, when they becoem Nasty liek Richard Dawkins, and begin claiming assinine things such as ‘morality and belief in God is nothign more than a virus’ and insinuating that thsoe who believe in God are weakminded to begin with which made them susceptible to the ‘delusions’ caused by soem unknown virus- then it gets personal- the hostility of evolutionist scientists towards Christians is uncalled for- and unprofessional- and the hostility of the peer review organizatiosn towards Creationist’s findings and ID’ist’s findings is equally disturbing coming from a body of peopel that claim superior knowledge-

It’s just sad that debates always seem to devolve into heated arguments riddled with nasty remarks like allmen’s, in both the scientific community and in blogs and websites-
