Science Finds God

The whole reason behind faith and it's ability to bring peace to our souls I believe comes from believing in a power greater than ourselves. Everything we do when we come from this humble place has a positve effect. I don't care where the facts say the power started or which religion says that they're rules or ways are the way to achieve this peace. I just know that there IS a power greater than all of us, and I enjoy finding out about all the ways we may have come to be. However in my life everytime I have made choices from a humble place, positive effects and peace within myself have been achieved. That to me is the power known as God and I would be selfish to think that I or anyone else could ever begin to achieve all the answers behind that power.

I applaud your article and in particular your reference to Allan Rex Sandage. He is the greatest observational cosmologist in the world today. He publicly professed his faith, as he approached the stage at the 1985 conference on science and religion. To all present, there was little doubt where he would sit. The discussion would be about the origin of the universe, and the panel would be divided among those scientists who believed in God and those who didn't, with each viewpoint having its own side of the stage.

Sandage is Jewish and was virtually atheist even as a child. The scientists present believed that a scientist of his stature must be skeptical about God. As "Newsweek" put it, "The more deeply scientists see into the secrets of the universe, you'd expect the more God would fade away from their hearts and minds."

So Sandage's seat among the doubters was a given.

But the unexpected happened, Sandage set the room abuzz by turning and taking a chair among the 'theists'.

The BIG BANG he told the spellbound audience, was a "supernatural" event, that CANNOT be explained within the realm of physics as we know it. Science had taken us to the First Event, but it can't take us further to the First Cause.

As for Darwin, yes, there definitely is an "evolution" , among species, animal and humankind. That is understandable, and makes sense, and there is scientific proof of it. But to say that we came out from a microbial slime, the odds of
happening of which are insurmountable it dazzles the mind,,,,the scientific evidence does not support this.

Darwin's Tree of Life is a dismal failure insofar as fossil evidence.

Ernst Haeckel's comparative drawings of embryos, which are often described as among the best evidence for Darwinism, have now been revealed to be frauds.It was exposed in the late 1860's. But have we been told? No.
Science magazine in 1995 dismissed the Miller Experiment ((Stanley Miller's 1953 experiment).

Archaeoraptor has been revealed to have been a "fake" fossil, fooling National Geographic Society. There is a fake-fossil factory in China. All motivated by money.

Darwin himself said that the fossil record would support his theory and later show 'transitional' creatures, there have
been none found.

And remember JAVA MAN? The stooped over ape turning into a man picture that we've all seen?....TIME magazine as recently as 1994 treated Java man as a legitimate evolutionary ancestor. They seemed to have missed the fact that a 342-page scientific report from a fact-finding expedition of 19 evolutionists demolished Dubois' claims and concluded that Java man played no part in human evolution.

We've been duped and mislead, and it's still going on in our schools today.



BUT, to say that we

.if sceintist study the last massage quraan from god .The scintist will clear their confution about univers.
They will come to know about god's existance.
fainally they sayTHERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH,MOHAMED [sal} IS HIS MESSENGER

read last message ' quraan'from god that clear the existance of god and his creation . Fainaly the real scintiest bleve islam

God is not a theory, God is a reality! I know that some folks have difficulty in believing this and it is because some people see things from a standpoint of wanting proof rather than asking why do you need proof? Ask yourself, has Darwin's theory of evolution made me a better person? Has the theory of the Big Bang or Chaos made life any more pleasant or rewarding to me?

Don't you find it strange that when you are the lowest or highest points in your life that you cry out to God? I never heard a man escaping a life threating situation say thank Big Bang Theory I'm Alive! or hear a mother cry out praise theory of evolution my child got a scholarship!

Instinctively our inner being is aware of God's existence but our physical being does create a huge challenge to seeing the world around us as it really is. Don't let your hearts be troubled by the world events, you cannot change it on your own. Not even collective science can undo what it has created. Peace be with you....

Science has created many useful aids that we rely on and perhaps enjoy everyday. Interestingly none of these creations can function without some human physical input, it may be to push a button, type a code, etc. God's creations, however, don't require these it requires FAITH and all things are possible. Remember! Science describes 'Evolution Theory, Big Bang Theory, Theory of Chaos' they are all theories and quite often other scientists are forever disproving of adding to these theories. There is nothing to add to God's creations, all was created for his glory so even the 'learned scientists' have a part to play in his glory. We all exist for his purpose, not our own. It is when we seek to strike out on our own that we find ourselves in all manner of difficulties forever trying to prove we are right. RIGHT ABOUT WHAT?

The article quoted
" 1905 John William Strutt determines the age of a rock: 2 billion years, officially disproving James Ussher's 1650 assertion that, according to Genesis, the universe was created on Oct. 22, 4004 B.C" and
A fellow researcher and friend of Sandage's was told by a pastor, ""Unless you accept and believe that the Earth and universe are only 6,000 years old [as a literal reading of the Bible implies], you cannot be a Christian.''
We should agree that
1) The universe is about 6000 years old
2) The earth is flat
3) The sun was created before day and night
4) Dinosaurs used to roam in human backyards
Who is against these should be burned alive by the church

Reading the examples in the article, I find some common themes: religious belief often seems to come out of a need to feel that there is something more to life, someone watching over us. It works as a comfort tool, but when you look at all the tragedies going on in the world how can you possibly feel that someone is watching over us? Scientists on the other hand often discount the human need for comfort and spirituality and come across as cold and unfeeling in their rough dismissal of God. Trying to merge science and religion is very dangerous however; I do not like it when some religions use scientific-sounding language to try to sell false information.

If God did create something, He probably created the RULES of the game ??? but these rules do not guarantee a positive or even fair outcome (i.e. if the chance is 50-50 that the cat will live or die, it is likely that both will happen given repeated trials, so instead of praying for the cat, do not lock the cat in a room that could kill it).

If God really were in the business of determining individual destinies, then what kind of God would set up such a random world where the best people can meet the worst outcomes, and vice versa? Also, what would be the point of living at all if your outcome is already pre-determined? One could also argue that setting up the rules without determining the outcome really is the most fair way to set up a system that is too large and too complicated to be micro-managed by the Creator. This makes the Creator possible, but praying to Him futile. Of course, then there is the question: who crated the Creator?

Whether there is a God or not, I think we can all agree that we have to work together to make our lives better on this Earth, because if this really is the only chance we get for life, we must not squander it. If this is just a part of an infinite existence and judgment is still to come, then we really need to make sure that our stay here on Earth leaves a positive legacy.

There is no faith in science and no science in faith. For faith to be, one has to believe without question and with science to be, one has to question what they believe.

Science and religion are one and the same in Hinduism. Half the Hindu scriptures have scientific texts within, and the two are not seen as rivals or even different: just ways to study the universe.

What a pile of BS. All they've done is what so many have done before: replace the WHY question with a fictional answer and called it GOD. But ask them the followup: WHY is GOD, and you won't get any more of an answer than you got before. Just vague mumblings about "always was". The long and short is, there are no answers (yet), and pretending there are is intellectually dishonest.
The boomers are getting old, and afraid of death.
