RE: Why I Write And Teach Creation Science
Good points. I think any thing that can't be explained, has to be left to faith. I went to catholic school growing up and some of things I was told to believe (due to faith) were the guardian angel (that was on your shoulder) and the immaculate conception. I like you pondered the creation of man and I have yet to have an answer. So I continue to keep the faith.
You're right outwalking, faith is a big part of a Christian life. Sometimes we get blinded by the world we live in, and we question our faith. But if we can pause and rest in the creation God made, to look at it, we can remember how great He is. All the world proclaims the wonder of God, and sometimes we need that reminder of how awesome He is!
I agree with you. If you just understand the empirical data, you should arrive at the conclusion that the odds of man's creation was likely not due to chance. I do understand the scientific postulates that infer molecules will combine to form different variations and the entities are prone to adapt to their environment. So these lead you to the conclusion that man evolved from the chimp. But there are factors that are not known (missing link). On the other hand, how do we know that God scooped up some clay and formed man, then pulled a rib from the man and made woman? This is where 'faith' is espoused. So how do you choose?
Understand that I am a believer in God and I am not denigrating the omnificence of God.
I choose to believe God made man from the clay and breathed life into him. There's just too many coincidences to believe we evolved from a primordial goo. Instead, it appears we were designed by a creator.
