you may be right.
“how can we be so certain about the origin and history of background radiation?” I doubt that you will find physicists who claim certainty on these matters. It is an ongoing study.
But some come on here and are opposed to the research because they OPPOSE PHYSICS. Anybody on here who opposes and has contempt for the scientific method as uselessly corrupt and that they know better ... these people are fools.
That is why I said:
“Through experience we have found that these threads usually leads to endless exchanges that have no impact upon each other’s beliefs. If you are a young earth creation science believer wishing to argue your cause, your post will be read, but in most cases no response will be given.”
- paraphrasing Greg Neyman, geologist, M.A., Liberty University
I think your probably right.
But though there is as little likelihood of impacting each other's beliefs as radiation being in suspended animation at the beginning of the universe, the truth of what Wills and Mohler are saying:
"Liberalism in America began with the rejection of the Bible's creation account," Wills wrote. "It culminated with a broad rejection of the beliefs of historic Christianity. Yet many Christians today wish to repeat the experiment. We should not expect different results."
is something we may be able to agree on.
Humanism (calling itself science) and Christianity are on the same sort of galactic collision course as they say Andromeda and the Milky Way are. Speaking for myself, I don't know when the collision will be at it's greatest intensity but I believe the results will be astronomically catastrophic and decisively destructive of a worldview.
