Quote: I'm a fundie who believes the Bible is true, yet I like science.Only if you think it supports your fairy tale, otherwise it is inspired by Satan.
Quote:I try to apply science to what is taught in the scriptures but some times things fall into the supernatural realm and as of now can not be explained I do have hope that science will answer some of the questions that are unanswerable at this time.You might as well try applying science to a Enid Blyton novel, they're both equally fanciful.
Quote: This is how I see the supernatural it is science so advanced that we are not able to comprehend it. I'm not saying that this is absolute it's the way I see it.Then you demonstrate your lack of understanding of the words "supernatural" and "science"
The first means something is beyond natural and therefore immune to analysis by science, by definition since everything is encompassed by nature, supernatural=fiction.
Science is merely the tool we use to understand nature. Thusly this statement"science so advanced that we are not able to comprehend it" is incorrect.
Quote:As for the light getting a head start I think whoever told you that meant that God created the light from the stars and held it in place until He created the stars thus all stars were visible to the first peope He created.If your god has done this he is the greatest liar of all time, because he has misled us all by presenting the universe other than it is and causing us to think it is something that it is not.
Quote: The universe is a wonderful time piece and I've never seen a time piece that was not made by someone intelligent and then set in motion. No time piece that I know of has ever fell into place and started itself. So why should the universe be any different. It has a creator and He set it in motion.No, the universe is not a timepiece. To call it such in order to lead into your little spiel about never having seen a timepiece that did have a creator is disingenous to say the least.
