Sure, that's fine. However, this thread seems to be against science as a whole. I'm saying that if we didn't embrace this knowledge, then we would be ignoring God's guidance.

Science isn't evil. I was contradicted early by someone who told me that there was no reason to learn how the world works. This is what I am arguing against. There's always room for learning.

If you want learning, then learn from the Bible.

You don't understand any of the points I have made thus far.

You don't deserve the computer you are using to read this message with.

That is not a nice thing to say. When was I rude to you. I did understand what you were trying to say, it is just that you have problems with God giving people directions on what to do.

Re: God HATES Rational Thinking!

Well, yes, but it still involved learning about photon refraction and radio waves. A person didn't suddenly know how to build a television because God gave them the idea. Instead, God probably inspired him to take university courses in physics and engineering. From there, God would have inspired him to experiment with what he learned to invent something new. All inventions require people to learn about how God's world works, and put pieces together to create the modern technology we have today.

In summary, all the of the modern medicine, electronics etc. that we have today wouldn't exist if people hadn't decided to explore and learn about nature, and the world.

Actually more often than not medical breakthroughs are found by (what secular types call mistakes). Obviously they would not ever admit that it is in fact God performing yet another miracle! GLORY!!!

No, it wasn't nice. It was, however, realistic. Technology doesn't come from nowhere. If it weren't for curious people with a true desire to learn about electromagnetism, current induction, photon refraction and binary coding, you would not have a computer. If you can't accept that sometimes people need to figure out and learn how things work in order for scientific progression, then you have no reason to take for granted the technology you have.

Yes, some medical breakthroughs have happened by accidents. However, if the researcher did not study molecular biology, they would not know how to interpret the results of the aforementioned accident, let alone apply them for practical use. However, computers don't come from nowhere. You don't leave a bunch of wires and resistors out one evening and come home to a Macintosh.

The comment was not realistic either. It was just not nice.

God is the one the gives the people the ideas and knowledge to build things. I wish you would read about Babel, then you would see what I am trying to tell you.

Really? Gee I didn't know that there were molecular biology classes around when Florey and Fleming did the whole Penicillin thing. Care to cite a source showing they did?

What you have to appreciate spiritedscholar is the vast majority of us have lived in the secular world and also attended secular schooling. If you truly think you are doing us a service by telling us we "NEED" to know all the fluff you claim we should then you are sorely mistaken.

Now, have you ever read the KJV1611 in its entirety?

Re: God HATES Rational Thinking!

Why can't everyone accept that everybody has different opinions? If you believe in God, that's great! Believe in Him. If you believe in Buddha, that's great too! Believe in Him. If you believe in many gods such as the Native Americans, that's great as well! Believe in them. Nobody is less of a person for having different beliefs, it's what we do as humans about those beliefs or for those beliefs that define us. Everybody deserves respect for their opinion. As soon as you begin to hurt another for their opinions, i believe that you no longer deserve any form of respect; and yes, that is my opinion, not a fact. Just remember that everything you believe is your personal opinion and everybody else in America is entitled to theirs. Freedom of religion and freedom of speech people.

By the way, I am not directing this post to anyone in particular, I just feel like there is a lack of respect on both sides in this forum.

We TRUE Christians(tm) agree. There is a disgusting lack of respect for us from the Atheists. We Christians are obligated by our beliefs to view anyone who disagrees with us as dangerous perverts who must be utterly destroyed for the good of society, but Atheists have no such belief. Atheists should show us Christians some respect by shutting and agreeing with what we Christians say.

God commands me to hate atheists, but no one commands an atheists to do it back!

Re: God HATES Rational Thinking!

You are very one-sided. You expect respect from others while not giving any respect to their side. And respect is different than acceptance. You don't have to accept them, but you should probably let them have their say just as much as you want to have yours.

You are ignoring the fact that we are being this way in accordance with God's Law, as espoused in the KJV1611 Bible. We speak with God's authority, while you just make up whatever morals happen to please you.

Quoted for the TRUTH(tm).

Christian belief DEMANDS Christians be intolerant. When someone asks us to be open minded they are just trying to oppress our belief.

I feel like I've made my point. Thank you for reading.
I didn't come here to argue. Besides, no matter what I say, you will believe what you believe and that's perfectly ok. I was just trying to be respectful, and I see now that that has no place here.
