Thorough research will show, that modern science is only about 450 years old. As recent as the 1930's to 40's persons who were diagnosed as having high blood pressure were NOT treated to lower their blood pressure BP, because at the time, this was strongly advised against. We all know better today, that early treatment of BP, helps to reduce the risks of end organ disease, strokes, and death.
Similarly, 3500 years ago, the Bible said that the hare/ rabbit, is a chewer of the cud. This was disputed for years, it wasn't until in the 18th century, the rabbit's cud chewing was finally observed by Englishman William Cowper. The unusual way in which it is done was described in 1940 in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, Vol.
110, Series A, pp. 159-163. Recent terms such as ruminant and refection, can in no way invalidate, the simple but true statement, made by the Bible, over 3500 years ago.
Sadly, fundamentalist so-called Christians go against the Bible, when they claim that the creative periods mentioned in Genesis, are literal 24 hour days. More than 4,000 years after the seventh day, or God’s rest day, commenced, Paul indicated that it was still in progress. At Hebrews 4:1-11 he referred to the earlier words of David (Ps 95:7,8,11) and to Genesis 2:2 and urged: “Let us therefore do our utmost to enter into that rest.”
The Thousand Year of Jesus Christ, who is Scripturally identified as “Lord of the Sabbath” (Mt 12:8), is evidently part of the great Sabbath, God’s rest day. (Re 20:1-6) This would indicate the passing of thousands of years from the commencement of God’s rest day to its end. The Bible, in reality, although not a science book, has proven to be way ahead of man in key concepts such as: 1.
The earth is supported by unseen gravitational forces Job 26:7 2. Earth is oval/ spherical and gives an idea of the geometry of the universe Isaiah 40:22 3. Energy creates matter, and cannot be destroyed Isaiah 40:26 4.
The universe had a beginning Genesis 1:1. Both Micro and Macro-Evolution have blaring inconsistencies after a hundred years of 'engineered' mutation studies, observation of species such as the Finch, and an honest appraisal of all fossil findings.
I can tell you from personal experience that prayer works. I care nothing of 'scientific' evidence to the contrary. Additionally, no human can say God does this or that systematically or not.
Scientific studies, assumptions nor conclusions apply to the Divine Supernatural. God is without corporal body so no physiological or biological argument can apply. He is also omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent.
This I cannot 'prove' per science, again just per personal experience. In terms of mentality, science can merely assume and 'validate' via scientific methodology etc.. This has been an ongoing debate for centuries, however science with all its many accomplishments is still unable to disprove the existence of God. In some way that is proof 'of'' rather than not.
In sum this is just material existentialism versus religious existentialism.. this debate has never nor will never, be resolved. In closing let me utilize a science of the mind...philosophical theory. This theory can go something like this: 1) Prove the existence of evil in the world (easily done I'll cite Hitler.
2) Prove the intrinsic neccessity of universal opposites (also easy, even matter has anti-matter as its opposite. 3) Apply absolutes to this theoretical equation. Evil to absolute evil to good to Absolute Good or rather, Satan to God.
God bless.!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
