I actually am a geologist. And I went into it because the wonder of the earth and its formation are truly a marvel to see. The things that the average person glosses over as “pretty” or just interesting are beautiful and awe inspiring to me. I have no problem with reconciling God creating it and the evidence before me of how long it took.

That has got to be one of the most tendentious cartoons I’ve ever seen. It’s worse than a Chick tract.

are you frightened and confused by young earth creationists?

That would explain a lot if you were.

May you some day realize your need for Christ. He opens eyes; he doesn’t blind them.

Maybe you should read a little William James. The cartoons present an 1890’s version of scientific materialism, which he dismissed as reductionist. Try to get hold of his essay “ Does consciousness exist?”

So, do I take it you don’t belive in (a) God?? There is a movement, in fundamental physics that now accepts the possibility of a Prime Motivator The knowledge that has been gained on the part of pure science is substantial, coming ever so close to explaining everything up to a few nano seconds after the "Big bang" - Talk to any atheist Physicist friend of yours and ask them "WHY", they, nor any other physicist would ever to be able to explain how or why. Theories abound, but, so do idiots. Science is an attempt, by mankind, to explain that which we cannot see. To explain effects or phenomena that we may not be able to feel or perceive. Science is a tool, used by "us" to garner understanding and control of the real world. Scientific breakthroughs in all areas have allowed mankind to live longer, be more productive, but as you well know the fruits of science in the hands of ne'er do wells can be a destructive force. Science is therefore subjective. There has to be an authority higher than just knowledge. I say a good mix of Wisdom and Intellect is in order. Now, all these three things do exist, true. But there has never been any human capable of having complete mastery of all three things, Wisdom Knowledge Intellect, the human race will never provide someone capable of that! The atomic Physicists have gone about as far as they can go. Unless you can convince a nation to build a particle accelerator the size of Texas or larger. and even then it scratches at the surface of what is left to be proven. All's I'm getting at is that to me, I believe God must exist. Atoms exist - explain it... Photons exist - explain that...< Gravity, Strong Nuclear Force etc. - I'm waiting... How did these things come to be? I guarantee While you ponder your a$$ off about it (I used to) I'll be chillin.
