You're going to have to keep an open mind when you read this post (actually that's not to different from any other posts).
It really messes with my head when people talk about how they don't believe there is a God. They have all this "scientific" research to back up their mute points. It's funny that they their science fails them when you ask "How do you create something from nothing?". Well to create something you have to have... SOMETHING. That's just basic second grade Mrs. Thompson's class science.
He is God. It says in the Bible that we wont understand all things about him. But that we can see him everywhere. Think about it. If I created an ant farm, would the ants ever be able to fathom my greatness? No, they are ants, they are stupid. Sure they would come up with theories about how they got on this great any farm, how some great being put them here. Then the babies they had would come up with their own "scientific" theories, so on so forth. We're just basically stupid ants who have been created by a loving and very merciful God!
Just think about it. We have names for everything... skin, brain, trees, air, oxygen, etc. It's how we can successfully communicate. But we dont truly know what these things are. Sure we know that air is made up of oxygen and carbon dioxide and we breathe it in and it goes to our lungs and from there to our blood and gives us life. But the fact of the matter is we don't control any of that.
Our skin, brain, hearts, lungs, they all just work. There is very little rhyme or reason to why or how they work. Some people are born mentally retarded from very healthy parents. Some kids have heart attacks. Some healthy athletes in peak condition have aneurysms.
Take for instance cancer. We know what it looks like. But we don't know what causes it. Eating bad food, smoking, drinking all these things CAN lead to cancer but what about the guy who is totally healthy eats nothing but salads and nuts... does he not get cancer?
You have the guy who is a marathon runner, he runs everyday and his heart gives out at 26 then you have the smoker, the drinker and his heart gives out at 87. It's funny how that works. It's funny how we have NO control over any of it. We just have these names. We know who to prolong life. We know how to treat things. Scientifically "No two heart attacks are the same." is that not weird??
And science has HELPED us IMMENSELY! I'm NOT knocking science. Trust me! I go to my doctor like once a month. But how good is science if it's biggest impact is causing men and women to depend on science more than God?
How good is science if we believe that we know everything because of "science"?
I believe science is a huge blessing. I just believe it's crippling us into thinking we have some sort of control.
"By the sweat of your brow will you have food to eat until you return to the ground from which you were made. For you were made from dust, and to dust you will return."
Genesis 3:19
It is interesting that we were created from dirt and when our bodies give out... we are baried in dirt. Our bodies scientifically turn to dust.
