1 | Why doesn’t God just show himself to tho | Mark 11:22 | cwade | 66209 | ||
You are right Mike. The historian Josephus made reference to Jesus, archeological evidence has verified Bible events, James the brother of Jesus' ossuary was found recently, etc. But what I meant was that SCIENCE cannot prove the EXISTENCE of God. Belief in God requires faith. (Thankfully, if our faith is weak, God will strengthen it if we just ask). I wasn't saying that events in the Bible can't be verified, just that the existence of God can't be scientifically confirmed. Once again, that's why we need faith. | ||||||

You are correct. Science can't prove the existence of God. Science by definition measures the observable and makes conclusions inductively from observations. Therefore, one cannot prove the supernatural beyond any shadow of a doubt. It is beyond the scope of science's ability to do so. But then, science can't prove that Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, either. However, I DO think that scientific observation does correspond with the Bible's claim to an Intelligent Designer of the universe. --Joe! |

I agree Joe. Intelligent Design is a much more logical "theory" than the Big Bang. Creation makes much more sense than evolution (to you and I anyway). Do you think it is faith that helps us to understand these facts? The only point I've been trying to make here is the importance of faith over absoloute knowledge. By the way, I doubt I will ever disagree with one of your posts after the wonderful answer you gave to my other question about divorce. | ||||||
