As you know science’s most ardent attacks are against
Genesis 1. Honestly, most theists today do not believe Genesis 1 completely anymore.
Even the Pope has entertained evolution as being true. I do not wish to debate
evolution in this post, you can search my blog and see my position that shows
the unknown variables and what COULD be true in relationship to scripture. No
today I want to look at science’s attacks on the Bible and religion.
First, we are fighting a propaganda war plain and simple.
One needs to really understand the 7 most common techniques in propaganda
before entering this fray because they are used to shut your opinion down. The
largest one used is TRANSFER, which in propaganda is transferring a using a feeling
to transfer that to a product so you think of that feeling when thinking of
that product. In science the propaganda technique of TRANSFER is used to
transfer any questions or objections to evolution or the creation of the
universe to the stereotypical backwoods southern Baptist who can only quote
scripture. The character that comes to mind is the trailer park family in the
movie Paul, basically an uneducated buffoon who only believes the Bible.
Second, attacking Genesis 1 makes the rest of the Bible a
fairy-tale. If you can remove God as the creator of the universe and over all,
then He is nothing more than an imaginary figure to explain the unexplained.
The Pope has indirectly said that nature is over God and therefore God is no
longer supernatural. Do you see the reason Satan needs to do this. If we will
not direct our worship to him, then his goal is remove it from God. If God is
not the creator of the universe, then God cannot absolve you of your
transgressions. If Jesus is God and God is not supreme, then science has done
the devils deeds.
Third, science has the answers for everything to remove or
redirect away from God. Take abiogenesis or the spontaneous creation of life.
For evolution to be true without God, life must have happened spontaneously
without any creator. It had to just happen. Nature today shows no effect
happens without a cause. So although this points to God it’s dismissed and when
you get right down and press this issue that POINTS TO GOD. It’s dismissed as
not part of evolution and the argument shows ignorance of science.
Forth, watch Bill Nye the Science Guy and his attacks on
religion. Or Jerry Coyne and his discussions on evolution. Both spend a large
portion attacking those who believe in a creator without discussing their
findings supporting evolution. They go so far as to say science will not
advance with religion’s backwards mindset and only need to point to “flat
earthers” for support. Dr. Walter Veith, who unlike Bill Nye is a doctor in
biology where Bill Nye is an engineer, like me, and is accepted since he walks
the line.
Finally, science will dismiss logical questions even from
scientists because they relate to God. I have been directly attacked as not
being a scientist and therefore cannot ask such questions. When I do force the
issue I am given elementary websites that give an overview without meat that I
am asking for. Case in point is my questions on radiometric dating, I believe
that one could plot the data on a graph without an exponential component to
show the earths age to be less than what is purposed by science. I am poo-poo’ed
and never given a site with data or equations, just one explaining how dating is
done.
Science must remove God from our equations in order to
win Satan’s agenda. To think that a theist cannot push our understanding on
science is ignorant and narrow minded. Science is great when used to progress
our understanding of nature but is dangerous when used to push away our faith
in God.
Before I go away again … don’t get me wrong I dig science and honest discoveries it makes. I just don’t like asking questions that to me are logical and getting slammed like I am some kind of moron. That smells agenda to me!!
