"It is often joked that science progresses in three stages: 1. New theories are ignored and/or ridiculed 2. Their importance is denied 3. It is pretended that the new theory was known all along The trouble is, many a true word is spoken in jest, and right now we seem to be somewhere betweens...

Anyone been watching this series with Neil Degrasse-Tyson? I liked Tyson on all the Nova shows and other PBS shows but lately he seems to have an axe to grind with Christianity. "I was struck in the first episode where [Tyson] talked about science and how, you know, all ideas are...

My wife told me something our 4 year old said in the bathroom last night. She heard someone coming down the hall: Daughter: mama, close the door. Someone might see me and that would be boring. Wife: boring? Daughter yeah! Wife: hmm...do you mean embarassing? Daughter: uh..yeah, it would be...

My 4 year old has to have a hernia operation. I guess next time I should move the couch to get the toy behind it?... (kidding). I hear it is one of the most common surgeries in children but as with everything, I take it to the lord in prayer, so I thought Id ask all the wonderful people here...

This topic has come up in a few posts so I dug out one of my favorite books "Evidence that Demands A Verdict" by McDowell. The reliability of the new testament has been criticized, so instead of just having one critical thought and leaving it at that, I think we should follow it through...

Thought this was interesting, they found gears in the Planthopper insect: http://www.evolutionnews.org/2013/09/mechanical_gear076801.html It got me thinking, what if the naturalists are right, that what I'm looking at there isn't the product of an intelligent agent but rather millions of...

Greetings everyone! I was thinking about how just about everyone I've ever known or talked to has some hope in the afterlife regardless of religious beliefs. Apart from a few who believe in materialism, that after our brains stop waving absolutely nothing happens, most people have hope that...

"We have no evidence at all that the tree of life is a reality." Dr Eric Bapteste "There is a longstanding and increasing realization among microbiologists that the mechanisms of gene spread among prokaryotes across evolutionary time are multiple and are different from those of eukaryotes. As a...

I was reading about the 5th dimension, Carmeli’s physics and Harnett’s physics and thought I'd share it here. "Carmeli/Harnett’s physics gave space the properties of an elastic fabric that expands with a velocity proportional to the distance from Earth, independent of matter. The stretch of the...

Lev 19:19 Keep my decrees. "'Do not mate different kinds of animals. "'Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. "'Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material." I have mixed feelings about GMO foods, on one hand they've enabled billions to be feed, which is a good thing. On the...

"In the last few years, two paradigms underlying human evolution have crumbled. Modern humans have not totally replaced previous hominins without any admixture, and the expected signatures of adaptations to new environments are surprisingly lacking at the genomic level. Here we review current...

There's a show called "How it's Made", a documentary series about how stuff's made. I like that show and thought I'd post a quick rundown on how ATP Synthase is made inside a cell. ATP Synthase is one of the "tiniest and most powerful motors ever made" weighing in at almost 400,000 atomic mass...

Greetings everyone! I wanted to discuss the Dead Sea Scrolls and their relevance to Christianity. More than 100,000 fragments, 1350 complete scrolls, some date as far back as 250 BC, but most were dated 50-100 AD (some even had a date written on them). The Qumran disbanded in 68 AD so I'm not...

I'm not a scientist or qualified, but I think there is a link in Genesis between science and Christianity which is interesting. I didn't know this before but Jasoncran pointed out what YLT translates "prepared" is actually "barah" which means "create from nothing". It is not my intention to...

I think I started this in the wrong forum so I thought I'd post it here: http://www.christianforums.net/showthread.php?t=53884&p=842444#post842444

It's on the net so it must be true....

Anyone ever read it? My wife got me to read it. It actually helped me understand how my wife and daughters think. Yet, at the same time only made me realize how little about women I do know.

Welcome everyone! In light of the recent discoveries by ENCODE (Encyclopedia of DNA Elements) which are changing the landscape of how we look at life, I thought I'd start a thread about Intelligent Design (ID) The theory of intelligent design holds that certain features of the universe and...

Secular biology, intelligent design, and creationist communities are abuzz with the recently reported data from 30 simultaneously published high-profile research papers in the field of human genomics, proclaiming that the human genome is irreducibly complex and intelligently designed.1 From an...

Welcome!Blessings in the name of our Lord and Savior! I don't want to mislead anyone, this thread is not about Easter or eggs specifically. Rather, it is about the little treasures I've found in the scriptures. Not to be confused with prophecy. For example, Job 38:16 "Have you journeyed to...
