I can't see these "distant" old galaxies or stars or "cold dark matter" but I have "Faith" that what they(these men of science) say is true. The equations and the little marks on the LCD screens show what "is" out there...and I have "faith" that what these men and machines tell me is "true".
So a man came to earth, died and rose again...witnessed by many and did so after he said he would...but if you "have faith" in that story you are labeled a kook.....or worse.
This story and the way it is stretching to explain the universe is funny. I've met several physicists and during their education they became Christians.... it's really funny. Because the more in depth they went into the theoretical aspects of physics the more questions of randomness and organization of particles, electrons, protons, neutrons, orbitals, and the interactions in order to create "life" even a single helix RNA virus is so unimaginable when you look at vastness of space that they said they couldn't help but believe in God.
I've looked at the curl of hair and the gentle folds of my daughter's ear, then looked up at the sky and the stars and thought about how "random" collisions could create one from the other.... and I came away a Christian..... a poor one, not deserving of the gifts that have been given me, but a Christian none the less.
I'd like the Freepers that may have doubts about their belief in God to read this article and think of how you stand on the subject of randomness or divine intervention.
of course this is only my opinion and I could be wrong....
Why must one either believe in science or believe in God? Why can't both be true? Why the false dichotomy?
