@ifeelfine72. You mentioned the lack of a basic understanding of science that some posters show. How about this: people walking on water defies every scientific law. Turning water into wine, feeding thousands of people with a limited ammount of food, healing blindness with one touch- all of this is scientifically impossible. But why do Christian evoultionists chose to take those parts of the Bible 'literary'? Maybe Jesus' ressurection is just a poetic expression of the gospel writers who tried to stress out the importance of hope, or whatever, because - do I even need a basic understanding of science to conclude that dead people cannot come to life miraculously?
Very very true. I have heard of some young people losing their faith after starting their university degree, being confronted with so much science. I can say that especially after joining the university and examining the theory of evolution, my faith in the Bible has been strengthened even more.
Sujames,
you said
"as a biologist/scientist, i am absolutely mortified that anyone could believe something as stupid as this. there is scientific PROOF that dinosaurs died out 65 MILLION years before humans came into existance"
as an archaeologist I am absolutely mortified that anyone could seriously believe in the accuracy of the dating methods. I have been studying it for years and it is one of the biggest jokes that exists.
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
