Hi Rubystars.
I hope you are doing well.
I believe that in most instances that G-d works through
natural processes or through people to do His work.
What do you mean by natural processes?
An explosion? That's just not true. The Big Bang has
NOTHING to do with any explosion. You sound like a Carl Baugh
or Hovind-ite creationist saying things like that.
What was the Big Bang then if it wasn't an explosion? And by the
way, you may not realize it, but you are using what is called an
ad hominem argument. An ad hominem is when an individual
attacks the man, not the argument (a personal attack). When
you can't defeat the message, take a shot at the messenger.
I highly regard Kent Hovind, that man is a great defender of the
Judeo-Christian faith, and one of the top Creation Scientist's in
the world. YES, I am fully aware of his troubles and the attacks
against him by the non-believing athiest crowd. Let's stick to
the arguments and forget about other people. What was the
Big Bang if it wasn't an explosion?
And before that the earth was without form, and void.
That goes along with the Hadean era quite well.
Care to elaborate? The Bible and Hadean era are related how?
In fact "intelligent design" is not actually just a belief
that the universe was designed intelligently. It's a belief that
you can scientifically demonstrate divine intervention or a
need for such.
That's not necessarily true. The definition of ID can be best
summarized as a theory that holds that “certain features” of
living and nonliving things were designed by an “intelligent cause”
as opposed to being formed through natural causes. The ID
concept does not name the intelligent cause.
I don't believe that you can scientifically establish anything
supernatural as the supernatural is by its nature not measurable.
I'm a theistic evolutionist, NOT an intelligent design advocate. I do
believe the universe was intelligently designed, but I don't think you
can scientifically establish that.
Well, I think you can scientifically prove creation and a young earth.
Polonium Halos is one example. Irreducible Complexity is another.
But, let me say this first, either the universe was designed, or it came
about by random chance. These are the only options. I mean, seriously.
These are the only two real options. Now evolution really is one of the
most stupid ideas in the history of the world, there is absolutely no
proof of it. If there is any proof, please give me your best evidence.
Your very best example.
Even if you don't believe in the Bible, I think common sense
would cause someone to lean more toward Israelis than Palescumians.
I've spoken to nonreligious people who would agree with many things
Chaim says regarding Israel.
I would agree. Interesting, Israel ceased to be a free nation about
2500 years ago, beginning with the first attack by Nebuchadnezzar
in 586 BC. The cities of Israel were demolished and the people of Israel
were taken captive, many as slaves. The final blow was in the year 70
when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem and the Jewish people were
scattered among the nations.
But, G-d promised them He would bring them back to their land, He
said, "I will cause them (the Jewish people) to return to the land that
I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it." Jeremiah 30:3
"I will plant them (Jewish people) upon their land, and they shall
no more be torn up out of their land, which I gave them, says the
Lord your G-d." Amos 9:15
‘For I will take you from among the nations and gather you out of
all lands, and will gather you into your own land’. Ezekiel 36:24.
References concerning the regathering of Israel are numerous!
G-d had promised that the impossible would happen.
And it happened on May 14, 1948 - when the Jews declared
independence for Israel as a united and sovereign nation for
the first time in 2500 years! The Jewish people are once again
back in their homeland – Israel.
Welcome home!!
The Bible Predicts the Future
If G-d provides a miracle for you like this, why won't you
believe Him when He says He created the world in 6 literal,
24-hour days, and rested on the 7th. The Bible's simplest
interpretation is for a young earth creation account.
