I’m on FR often but rarely chime in.
Just had to respond to you since you go by the moniker “Natural Law”.
The Theory of Evolution (if true, which it isn’t) violates to following Natural Laws:
1. The Law of Cause and Effect (Any effect must have a greater and pre-existent cause)
2. The Law of Biogenesis (life can only come from life)
3. The First Law of Thermodynamics (Energy can not be created or destroyed)
4. The Law of the Conservation of Matter (Matter can not be created or destroyed.)
5. The Second Law of Thermodynamics (Entropy)....please spare me the “open system” argument.
Out of the following 4 statements, one has to be true:
1. Matter and energy do not exist.
2. Matter and energy are eternal.
3. Matter and energy spontaneously generated into existence.
4. Matter and energy were created.
#1 is falsified by observable science....we observe matter and energy every day.
#2 is falsified by the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. (Scientists admit this by positing the Big Bang theory)
#3 is falsified by the Law of Cause and Effect and the Law of Biogenesis
That leaves us with #4......Matter and energy were created.
Can I prove that scientifically? No. However, all other options have been falsified by Observable science and Natural Law.......hey wait a minute, that’s your Screen Name!!!
I do appreciate intelligent and constructive comments and feedback. I am a proponent of Thomistic Philosophy as it relates to Natural Law. As such all is predicated on existence of God. It affirms the compatibility of Science and Scripture as both being authored by God.
As for evolution I am a believer in Intelligent Design. Evolution is only the process, created by God, by which God introduced and guided the life and the ascent of Man in a dynamic universe. Some on this forum consider my position blasphemous and offer shrill and insulting arguments against it. I put my faith in God, not them.
