>>The central argument of these scientific atheists is that modern science has refuted traditional religious conceptions of a divine creator. <<
Those that actually believe that tripe really need to read up on DNA.
As a scientist in a 1990’s Scientific American article once said, regarding DNA, “the more we know about it, the more it looks like someone designed it”.
Just sayin’...
Which I find to be ironic considering their mystical beliefs. Atheism has nothing in common with science.
Once, years ago, I had a fear. That fear was dying. The end of my life. Since I have known Christ, I don't worry about it any more. I live my days. If that day should come, then I am prepared. My old grand mother, who lived to be a wonderful 99.5 years old told me she never feared death. Not when she was 20 and not when she was 95. She said she KNEW there was a better place. She said she KNEW that she would be in Heaven with God. That is FAITH! Something liberals don't have. If they cannot see it in the NY Times or on CNN, they don't believe it.
I asked my boss, who is an experimental physicist, how he reconciles his devotion to Christianity with being a physicist. He replied, “You can question a person’s scientific beliefs but you can’t very well question their faith.”
