Philosophy Disguised as Science

2. Does God Exist?, 3. Are Miracles Possible?, age of the earth, Apologetics, Christianity, FreeThinkingMInistries, Gospel, Intelligent Design, naturalism, Origin Science, Phil Bair, philosophy, Philosophy of Science, science, scientism

One of the basic principles that atheistic scientists live by is that science is based on evidence and religion is based on faith. I scarcely have to provide examples of atheistic scientists telling us that for something to be scientific, it must be evidence-based, and it must rely on the time-honored methods of scientific inquiry. Nor do I need to provide examples of them telling us there is no scientific evidence for the existence of God or miracles, and that all religious doctrine is faith-based. Theism, we are told, is based on faith with no objective or valid (which, of course, means scientific) evidence to support it. Even a cursory reading of the publications of the [relevant] atheists will yield example after example of both of these claims. Science, we are…

31 Nobel Prize Quotes That Challenge the ‘Faith vs. Science’ Myth – Smart Faith

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Evidence for God, Faith vs. Reason, Gospel, Medicine, Miguel Rodriguez, science, Science vs. Religion, scientism, SmartFaith.me, theology

You have seen it on social media or even books. Someone gambling his head that faith impedes the progression of science. Faith, they say, is believing something without evidence or in spite of, and science relies on evidence to reach at truth. This gives the false impression that the majority of scientist are atheist, or at least non theist. It’s even considered conventional wisdom for many (maybe you thought it too). But in reality… this is just plain doodoo. Faith vs. Science? First, because it starts with a false definition of faith like the one mentioned above. Pistis, the Greek word for faith, means trust and is the word used in the Bible. Trust cannot be conceived without reasonable justification. The biblical faith doesn’t shy away from doubt. Doubt and faith…

The Road to the Perfect God

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Arguments for God, Being, Christianity, Diego Fallas, existence, God's nature, Gospel, metaphysics, Perfection, Philosophical Theology, Theology Proper

Human beings have wondered about God for millennia. The Bible explains this by saying that God “set eternity in the human heart.”[1] How can, limited, finite human beings wonder about the supreme being? Some say that we are not alone in this quest and that God has revealed himself to us. That he has bridged the infinite chasm between creature and creator so that finite creatures can know him. Other say that God, if he exists at all, is too hidden and has not done a good job in making his existence evident. My contention here is that, not only is God not hidden, but there is evidence for his existence that we cannot dismiss because it is right “in front” of us, every moment, every second, every day and…

The Real Issue and the Christian Philosopher

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Christianity, Diego Fallas, Gospel, metaphysics, philosophy, Thomas Aquinas, Thomism, william lane craig

Human beings are rational animals, according to Aristotle. As animals, human beings are sensible beings who have sensations and movements (in contrast to plants, which are living beings without true sensation and self-initiated movement). But human beings are not just any kind of animal. We have a special quality that separates us from animals, plants and the rest of the material world, which is that we have a rational soul. Furthermore, leaving Aristotle aside (as we shall see later), this doesn’t mean that human beings are the summit of all that exists. God, who is infinite and intellect in its fullest form can alone claim his proper place at the top of the summit (although, technically speaking, He is the foundation) of all that exists. Still, since human beings are…

Defending the Deity of Jesus in John 1

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, bellatorchristi.com, Christianity, Deity of Christ, Gospel, Gospel of John, Greek, Justin Angelos, Koine Categories: Does God Exist?

John 1:1 is one of the most important verses in the Gospel of St. John to understand grammatically in English but more importantly in Greek. “In the Beginning was the word and the word was with God and the Word was God” (John 1:1) Εν αρχή ἧν ὁ λόγος και ὁ λόγος ἧν προς τον θεόν και θεός ἧν ὁ λόγος[i][ii] The reason is this verse is always under attack by various non-Christian religious groups and even faiths who claim to be Christian but, do not accept Jesus Christ as God the Son (The second person of the Trinity). The two words I want to focus on is “God” and “Word” or Θεός ἧν ὁ Λόγος (Theos hēn hŏ logos). What I am going to focus on is the grammatical…

3 Reasons to Believe in God

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Arguments for God, Christianity, design argument, First Cause Argument, God’s existence, Gospel, IsChristianityTrue.Wordpress.com, Kalam, Moral Argument, Steve Lee

In presenting apologetics there are certain points I focus on in order to systematically examine the evidence for the truth of Christianity. While there are many other areas of interest and concern for the apologist, these areas are essential in determining the veracity of the Christian religion. These main features of Christianity include: The existence of God The reliability of the Bible The divine claims of Jesus the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. I organize these four points in the form of a question, which can possibly be answered yes or no, in order to be objective in the analysis. I’d like to focus on point #1 by asking the question: “Does God Exist?” Does God Exist? Obviously, if God doesn’t exist then Christianity cannot be true. It is…

The DNA Replisome: A Paradigm of Design

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, biology, Christianity, DNA, Evolution News and View, genetics, Gospel, Intelligent Design, Jonathan McLatchie, JonathanMclatchie.com, science, teleological argument

The DNA replisome is one of the most remarkable molecular machines, involving a complex of different proteins, each of which is very specifically crafted to fulfill its role in the process of replicating the genome in preparation for cell division. The rate of DNA replication has been measured at a whopping 749 nucleotides per second[1] and the error rate for accurate polymerases is believed to be in the range of 10-7 and 10-7, based on studies of E. coli and bacteriophage DNA replication.[2] One of the best animations of this incredible process is this one by Australian animator Drew Berry. It is difficult to look at an animation such as this (which is drastically over-simplified) and not come away with the strong intuition that such an intricately choreographed machine is the product of masterful…

Does the Bible Support Sexual Slavery? An Analysis of Numbers 31:15-18

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, biblical ethics, Christianity, Gospel, Immoral God, Jonathan McLatchie, Numbers 31:15-18, Sex Slavery, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Tough Passages

More than two years ago, I participated in a debate in Oxford, England, with atheist YouTuber Alex O’Connor (who goes by the online alias Cosmic Skeptic). The subject was “Why I Am / Am Not a Christian,” which was quite broad. Given the short time constraints of the debate and the breadth of the topic, we were regrettably unable to pursue an explication of our differences with the depth that I would prefer. Nonetheless, I very much appreciated my interaction that evening with O’Connor, including the dinner we enjoyed together before the event. I have long viewed O’Connor as one of the more philosophically nuanced atheist thinkers, and I have valued our ongoing private discussions subsequent to our initial public dialogue. My positive argument in the debate concerned the evidence for Jesus’s resurrection,…

Atheists’ Faith in Science is Misplaced

2. Does God Exist?, Al Serrato, Apologetics, Atheism, Christianity, design argument, Gospel, Intelligent Design, science, scientism, teleology, Theology and Christian Apologetics

Most atheists I have encountered demonstrate an amazing “faith” in the power of science. They will often accuse believers of wishful thinking – or outright foolishness – when believers conclude that an intelligent being is the only reasonable inference to draw from the evidence of design that surrounds us. They do this because they have come to believe that only through “science” can anything be known, and that science will someday answer all of life’s mysteries. That is what’s called “scientism.” There is no need for a God, they assure themselves, because “science” has not provided for one. Is Science the Only Way to Know? The flaw in this thinking is the assumption that science is the only way one can know something. This is flawed on many levels. Science,…

In the Image of God: The Battle for Human Identity

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Christianity, Faithful Thinkers, Gospel, Human Value, humanity, image of God, Luke Nix, Philosophy of Science, Theological Apologetics, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics

By Luke Nix Introduction Human origins is a fascinating area of research today. With all the different models for the origins of humanity being proposed, I see an increase in the discussions, both scientific and theological. For everyone reading this post, this area of research should be of utmost interest for you as well. Two critical ideas about humanity are at stake depending on which model (or family of models) is true: intrinsic and equal human dignity and value, and the sinfulness of humanity. The age-old debate about God’s existence has great implications on this area of the debate about human origins. The Judeo-Christian claim that all humans are created in God’s Image and that humans possess a sin nature that will cause them to tend toward the immoral. These…
