So let us not seek any information...let us sit in caves and grunt..for those who seek knowledge are of the devil. Amen.
"For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks , Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence." Sarah, someone said earlier, "To study science, is to study God." Being a professional scientist, I am not exactly sitting in a cave and grunting. There is no conflict between God and science. He is the very author of every scientific discipline. The more we learn about the natural world, the more we learn about God and His creativity.
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
This is usually quoted by the time you get to Post # 15 in a CvE thread, but it is still true.
