I am not a scientific genius by any stretch of the imagination. I do have an engineering degree.

There are many educated people who lack wisdom.

God sometimes reveals things to the humble and simple, and keeps those who say they can see from seeing.

Many "educated" people break their arms patting themselves on the back for understanding less than .0000000000000000001% of how God Himself created and runs His universe.

The answer to the author's questions is: Christ.

"And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together."

Colossians 1:17

No argument here.

And I'm looking forward to people learning the next .0000000000000000001% of God's creation,

Modern science or scientism has a hold on our culture.

It has become the authority for virtually every aspect of our public policy, media and social structures they attempt to build.

It is an authority based on a subjective reality.

The first principles of logic and reason can not be deconstructed, using the same scientific methods they use to conclude everything is relative.

Nevertheless, we are told, and society holds science up as the authority.

Sadly, more and more people fall in line.

I love science.

I think more people should ask “how do we know, what we know?”

Where does knowledge come from ?

Authority ?

Does objective morality exist ?

Where does that come from ?

IMHO, you can’t do science without God.

“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountain of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”

..Robert Jastrow
