Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT!
I can't make head nor tail of whether this rambling person is praising Jesus or not.

No, polar molecules are not some sort of Canadian Ice Hockey team. It's a term used for any molecule that has a negative side and a positive side to the molecule (though this is a bit simplistic as some molecules can have multiple areas of negative and positive charge. Such as in many proteins). It's what gives water and other polar molecules unique properties and is pretty much the only reason why we can have hydrogen bonds between various molecules.
This polarity in water is what causes adhesion and cohesion. Adhesion being how water can stick to another dissimilar surface (granted, there are several ways Adhesion can occur. I'm talking about chemical adhesion for this). This is like how dew forms on plants, where it sticks to a plant's surface without falling off. And then there's Cohesion, which is the tendency for similar polar molecules to stick together. And water is a good example of this property. This is why drops of water tend to be spherical (Also like how you see in dew drops, for sake of a simple example). It is also why rain drops are spherical as well.
Granted, this is all a scientific explanation because science tries to use natural means by which to explain a phenomena. If you say God made it that way, that is fine. I will not convince you otherwise. The point of this was to further explain what I meant with my earlier post. And considering I believe water has only been turned to wine by only Jesus, wasn't it? So, it would seem that it takes more than just being "of the Spirit" to be able to change water into wine.
The quote of Timothy there is a fair rebuttal, I suppose. It is a warning to Timothy that he not accept the claims of false knowledge that have incorrectly spoken of the Good Word. So, I will probably not convince you this knowledge is not false knowledge or is not trying to speak directly against the word of God.
To Mr. Hutchins. I do try to remain as accurate and concise as possible. There are some who do poor jobs of explaining certain things, making a bit of a fool of themselves a little bit. I hope I have at least done a better job of it. It is true that certain things can change in science based on new information. But that is because as human beings, we cannot know everything about everything. That does not mean that we don't strive to understand the things around us. Unfortunately, science is not content with just accepting that things are as they are just because God did it. Scientists wish to understand 'why' things are the way they are. Religion specifically disallows you to even try to search for those reasons if they conflict with anything in their holy text. This is understandable because if any part of the Bible or other holy book were to be found untrue, then it would mean anything else within it could be untrue. This is why any of the main religions of the world have to believe the words of their holy word as being of the hand of God (or their equivalent). You may be content with this, most scientists are not. For better or worse, it appears to be a part of Human nature that we question things. This is not a surprise I'm sure.
Thank you for the conversations again. I didn't intend on speaking so broadly. I appreciate your beliefs and I hope they serve you well! I truly do. I was simply trying to express in general terms how scientists tend to think and the current ideas of human knowledge.
