Isn't it worrying that the biggest opponents to Creationism are scientists? Some of the smartest people around

Question

Scientists (both when being stereotyped and in practise with the jobs they perform) are considered to be some of the smartest people around - doctors, astrophysicists, computer scientists etc.

Being called an 'Einstein' is directly refering to one of the smartest men to have ever lived - of course, he was a scientist.

Is it not worrying that the smartest people, people smarter than the average member of society, are telling you that Creationism is wrong?

People may say "scientists get it wrong sometimes, at one time everyone thought the world was flat", but it was a scientist who predicted the world was round - not a theologean.

Answer 1

I always think its interesting that creationists try to use science to prove science wrong.
The fundamental problem with creationism is that some people want to start with an answer, and then try to get the questions to fit. Picking and choosing only the 'facts' that fit their pre-determined solution.
Creationism isn't smart or logical. Its just a belief without proof.




Its very interesting that the scientists posted previously all predate the theory of evolution. I'm betting many of them would consider it logical if they lived today and had the information we have.

Answer 2

Not when eminent scientist such as Francis Crick can only come up with the idea of aliens spreading DNA throughout the universe to explain how life got on this planet. Hypno toad. You will find my reference Sir Francis Crick, to still be alive and was one of the two theorists( with James Watson) of the double helix model of the DNA molecule. I did not bring up the other scientific model being bandied about to explain the ability for our existence the multiverse theory. Both theories being touted at this time but unable to be proven in any way yet considered amongst eminent scientists.

Answer 3

The folks supporting Creationism and I.D. in a science class would not be considered scientists because

1. These theories does not meet the standards of practicing science and increasing our understanding the natural world.

2. These theories are not grounded in evidence.

3. These "scientists" are not published in peer reviewed journals, which is a hallmark of getting validity and scrutiny from the scientific community

Answer 4

You are right. But I do not worry.
Science is a quest of seeking the truth.
Holly books tell stories that you have to believe and should not question. Good for people who seeks relaxed mind and peace.
Scientists are totally different. Always ask questions and seeks better and detailed answers, even if they find an answer.
People have choices. It's not worrying.
One can choose to believe or to seek.

Answer 5

I wouldn't say it is "worrying" but I am amazed. I am a Geologist and my studies have led me to God. I think many scientists are buffeted by pride and thus, are blind to spiritual understanding. I just believe that nature and life are too complicated and exact to have just occurred by happen chance. I also think that things were put here for our specific enjoyment. I belive evolution is nothing more than the process of God's creating.

Christians ought extra advantageous to be employed interior the best information of our writer ...moving into our very shoes extremely than installation a laboratory to coach Himself or draw evolutionary diagrams,.He certainly pointed out with our actual concerns and issues.very few human beings care approximately considering their navel, extra approximately their very own happiness , protection and destiny. If He had advised us we've been the fabricated from risk and danger i do no longer think of that ought to have replied our private desires , do you? Who tries to disprove evolution? surely the final public ought to settle for a shown skill for mutation interior species ,in any different case they might develop into extinct decrease than environmental substitute. even nevertheless I and diverse extra clever human beings alongside with the final public of scientists are no longer persuaded approximately "Genetic Evolution" that doesn't completely decrease cost popular thought or opinion. Darwin and the neo Darwinists of at present basically have had an impossible concern with the finished dearth of inter species evidence.with the objective to challenge a fragment of human of experimentation onto a multi billion 12 months canvass of their very own invention looks a brilliant step of religion of their very own contraptions. devoid of trawling in the time of the finished of your crimson herrings (sic) i think of if we spent extra time examining related to the spectacular correlation between Scriptural revelation and the path of history you will have evidence adequate that each and every thing ,alongside with the finished cosmos is shifting inexorably in accordance to a predetermined climax. enable us to as a result focus on the only burning situation of the day:- no longer the " enormous Bang" of the previous however the spectacular " enormous Bang" no longer so a protracted way remote from us. possibly black or white hollow, what enormous difference?

Answer 7

That's where faith comes in and that's why being a Christian is so challenging. But we do it just the same. I do challenge your information though because there are many scientists who absolutely believe in Creationism. Copernicus, Bacon, Galileo, Kepler, Isaac Newton and although "Einstein did not believe in a personal God, he recognized the impossibility of a non-created universe."

Answer 8

It is amazing that so many ignorant people prefer to remain that way because of some poorly written fictional book that is 2000 years old.
