Why all the hate for science?

Re: Why all the hate for science?

If Jesus is God's son. Then Jesus is not God. He would be a creation of God's, but would not be God. In Mark 12:29 Jesus said "Here, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord." The words"our God" indicate that Jesus had a higher God over him, a stronger God than him. Jesus didn't say "Your God". He said "our God" which includes Jesus as the creation of God.
Therefore my point still stands. Worshiping Jesus is breaking a biblical principal.

Also, shouldn't the fact that their are more than one religion, indicate that there is no true religion. If believing in Jesus is the only way to eternal salvation. Then why would God, being omnipotent and omniscient, having the ability to know the future, and the power to change all things, would it not be reasonable to assume that he would have the power to say no this is the way. If he is jealous, like the scripture I quoted above says. Then why doesn't he do something about it? Surely having the power to create the universe, would mean he would have the power to say "hey c'mon now, this is the way."
Why would God, seemingly randomly choose some people to go to hell and others not to? It's not the baby's fault they where born Muslim.

God is not comfort, Son – He is the Creator of the Universe. He left behind an owners manual telling us how to live – it's call the Bible (KJV1611). If you disobey it you void your warranty – just like you might do with a new car. Oh sure, it might be nice to strap on that aftermarket turbocharger – but you will wind up with a blown head gasket. Things are not always easy with God, but you have a choice.

Welcome friend. Now first of all, we don't hate science. That's a leading question like "when did you stop beating your wife" when you haven't (that day, let's say).

We hate science that contradicts the Bible. We accept science that proves that the Bible is right.

And yes, you are right: God is responsible for everything:

Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Why did you think we didn't know this?

As for the idol thing: Jesus = God = Jesus. He's his own Son. How difficult is that to understand?

Let me guess: you never really cracked open a Bible have you?

Nature does not always fall in line with our predispositions of what makes us comfortable. Is God just a way to bring comfort into your life? A sense of purpose? Life can be purposeful without God. You can be moralistic, pleasant, well-adjusted, as I would like to think I am.
It was said in The Purpose Driven Life, that we where created for God's pleasure. If that is true, then certainly God is very sick. Rape, murder, torture, the list would go on and on. So you attribute that to the devil? Then God must enjoy the devil, as God CREATED the devil. Also, on evolution, wouldn't that be how God was created. Forming via a pre-dietal soup, so to speak. Because God had to be created somehow.
Science is just the new creation story. Except it is based on facts. Not fables.
I'm just going to make my introduction brief. I am genuinely interested in starting a discussion.

Also, would it not be in violation of the Ten Commandments to worship Jesus?

8 You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
9 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and fourth generation of those who reject me,
