Why don't scientist believe in a almighty creator...?

Question

how can the universe just evole....

Answer 1

Many scientists do in fact believe in creation rather than evolution.

The problem with science today -- not all sciences, but enough of them -- is really the question of eisogetics versus exogetics. Science starts off with a premise and then seeks the evidence to support their premise, oftentimes ignoring evidence that contradicts their premise. This is eisogetical study, and what much "scientific facts" are based on, which is also why you have a scientific "fact" in 1970 that is totally reversed in 1980.

An exogetical study says: Here is all the evidence in front of me. What does all the evidence mean when measured out against itself? THAT'S how you come up with a proper conclusion. This is how the truh of something is found and not is not able to be disputed because the evidence is so overwhelming that to argue it just makes you stupid. (Like the guy who believes that "germs" is just a ploy by doctors to sell you medicines for profit.)

Imagine the audacity of a scientist not being able to understand why your eye blinks involuntarily, but can tell you definitively that there is no God.

Think about it this way: There is a genetic code. We know this. We have seen it. It has been mapped. Who wrote the code??

The sun rises and sets every single day. There is no randomness about that. Why not, if we live in a random universe?

How come spring ALWAYS follows winter, and summer follows spring? How come we plant in the summer and harvest in the fall?

Flowers grow up instead of down, people walk squarely on the ground instead of suddently floating away, and a puppy grows into a dog EVERY time, not just some of the time.

Sounds like there's order there to me. And if there is, someone greater than man ordered it.

Here are a couple of links that you will really enjoy, and a couple of books that will spell it out cleary.

Good luck!

Answer 2

The question "How can the universe just evolve?" is like the question "How can the wind just blow?" Both are questions with sensible, obvious answers, but for some reason some people ask those questions as if they were great mysteries with no answers.

Some scientists do believe in God. But when they go into the laboratory, they leave their beliefs in the parking lot. That's because they have observed that the efficacy of prayer is haphazard at best and the power of science to produce what it aims for is much more dependable. Even the religious scientists know that when something important must be done, you don't pray, you think and act.

But most scientists do not believe in God. They have learned the value of Occam's Razor, a principle in governing beliefs by keeping what you believe in to the fewest possible necesssary entities. Occam's Razor always excludes belief in gods. Why?

Suppose you wanted to know what created the universe. It would be easy to say "God did it," and then stop thinking about the subject of creation. Most people DO stop thinking when their emotional needs have been satisfied, but scientists do not stop thinking here. They see the next obvious question, which is: What, then, created God?

If "everything" needs a cause, then what caused God? If God doesn't need a cause, then it isn't true that "everything" needs a cause, and maybe the universe is one of those things that can happen without cause. You can SEE the universe. You can't see God. That difference is why the universe gets past Occam's razor, while the God-idea gets shaved away.

See how it works? If your reasoning isn't limited by your need of emotional satisfaction, if your curiosity is larger than your desire for comfort, then you won't be satisfied with the God-idea. You'll look further for the real reasons for creation, and eventually you'll find quantum mechanics.

Answer 3

Wow, from the looks of some of the posters above me it seems that some people have absolutely no knowledge of nature or science what so ever. Pick up a childs earth science book and the reasons why the plants grow up and the sun rises every day are easily and rationally explained. There are no supernatural causes what-so-ever.

The majority of scientists do not believe in a creator because there is no evidence of one what-so-ever! Claims otherwise by un-credited "scientists" with a religious agenda do not hold water with the respected, peer-reviewed, real scientific community.

Answer 4

A lot of scientists, past and present, believe in God. Albert Einstein, Jonas Salk, Louis Pasteur, Galileo, Da Vinci, Stepehen Hawking, etc, etc,,,,,! The ability to ask questions about where we came from is not unbelief, but natural curiosity. These people and more realize that they can have a relationship with God and study in the scientific world. It should be this way. But, one of the greatest men of faith that non-believers like to parade around is Charles Darwin himself and he was very aware that his theory would probably never be proven. He came to realize later in his life that the theory of evolution was part of the creation process and man would probably never prove it one way or another. So when people say that it has to be either creation or evolution, I remind them that 1, a theory is just a theory, 2. God gave us all wonderful abilities and brains, 3. it is natural for us all to be curious about our beginnings and 4. if we had all the answers, why are we still making all the same mistakes? We all need to be careful of including everyone in any statement. What people believe is very personal and sometimes contradictory to the proffessions they follow. As for the universe just evolving, I don't know and with everything going on today, I don't care. I have my faith in God and yes mankind. How or why God created us is not a major concern. Even if the theory of evolution was definitely proven today, I would not give up my belief in God and neither would any of the scientists that believe either.

Answer 5

I am a scientist and I work with scientists and all of them believe in an Almighty creator. Our work is never in dispute with God. Rather, we look at how things work and try to make them work better, faster, cheaper - sure, driven by how to make money in some form or fashion, but knowing that people will decide what they want. So, in reality, the people decide what we work on. Serious scientists are not interested in pursuing topics that people do not care about.

Answer 6

If the scientists admitted that then they would have to admit that there really is a God. It would really mess up there way of living. The universe can't just evolve. You can't create something out of nothing! Check out the creation seminar by Kent Hovind at www.drdino.com. It will help you understand what evolutionists believe and how those beliefs have been proved wrong.

Answer 7

I think skeptical, self-confident people are simultaneously more likely to become scientists and less likely to be religious. It's an attitude or a personality trait that leads certain people down this path. I think if you're of the disposition that the world must follow certain rules and we are smart enough to figure out what those are and use them to our benefit, then you're not going to welcome a religion that has logical gaps, doesn't explain things, discourages skeptism and asks for Faith and even says patently illogical things like The Trinity is both One and Three at the same time.

Answer 8

Because they have to distinguish fact from fiction...they can either take the leap of faith or not.You are evolving even as we speak..the world turns and turns as ever.. pandas used to be carnivores..they de-volved to the point of just eating bamboo about 14-16 hours a day..not much time for anything else but sleep..i'm a scientist who inhabits their own lab and god is here with me..i'm on friendly terms now since the last beating in the dark alley. things will change..as usual..

Answer 9

Some do. Stephen Hawking once said that science was not out to disprove God, just find out how God created the universe. And when Albert Einstein was asked if there was an afterlife, he said "Life is energy, and energy never dies, it just changes form." But you do have some scientists that believe it was all science and evolution.

Answer 10

you could certainly make something out of not something; examine up on digital debris. also, not each and every thing has a author: a uranium atom will from time to time spit out an alpha particle with none motivation inspite of. something else of your argument is many times called the anthropic argument; that's an get mutually of a classification of excellent judgment mistakes called ad hoc. There are billions of trillions of stars, which will have planets acceptable for human existence; it isn't staggering that there's a minimal of one that does.
