1984 & A/S/K revisited

[Undeceived]

Sorry for my vagueness. By 'presupposed' I mean science that uses certain outside beliefs as its premises. For example, Evolution is not a conclusion based on a mass of undeniable evidence. Evolutionists presuppose Evolution and work the evidence to match it. If you're thinking, "That's what Christians do!" you're right. My point is that much of science is like a religion. When a Naturalist says "prove to me the supernatural exists" they are presupposing Empiricism, and that everyone outside of their camp bears the burden of proof. And so on.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. Evolution was not the first theory of its kind, and was widely contested when it was first proposed. People did not bend the evidence to their presuppositions, do you know how Darwin first came up with the idea of evolution?

History of evolutionary thought

Evolution was based on physiological observations--organisms "looked" similar, so some scientists decided there must be some causal relation. Evolution died when scientists discovered that many of the organisms (Darwin's finches, for example) were entirely different species and far apart on the hypothetical Evolutionary tree. But that hasn't stopped Atheistic scientists from pursuing a new version of the theory. They began drawing causal relations from an organism's genes instead. But there remains the biggest presupposition: that similarity implies causality.

By the way, science does work, in that this forum can exist because of science. So, to at least that extent, science has demonstrated its effectiveness. How many significant discoveries came about via revelation?

I agree! God made science too. He made an entire natural world that we can explore. If one starts (presupposes) with the premise of the Bible's truth, they find that science does not contradict with Christianity either.
