Bible Note: Radioman -- These are times when it is considered fashionable in ever widening circles to idolize science and impugn Scripture. Not long ago I chanced upon an anonymous little news article that seems in some measure to put science back into proper perspective. It reads, "On September 13, 1765 people in fields near Luce, in France, saw a stone-mass drop from the sky after a violent thunderclap. The great physicist Lavoisier, who knew better than any peasant that this was impossible, reported to the Academy of Science that the witnesses were mistaken or lying. The Academy would not accept the reality of meteorites until 1803." --Hank |
