Philosophers all agree that in order for there to be anything at all there had to be something that just existed innately without cause, the problem with proposing that its the universe or laws of physics or whatever is that all these concepts have limits to them.

Christian or not, it is a complete misconception that the Dark Ages held back humanity technologically. 1. Even under religious institutions many non-Christian philosophers were studied by religious institutions. 2. The Chinese were more technologically advanced because of their better living standards (a lot more arable land, massive population, diverse and extremely powerful economy, etc) not because of their beliefs. 3. Christianity was never anti technology, in fact many Western European nations allied with the Mongol Empire (the most technologically advanced empire at the time), heck they even bought many of their technologies from the Mongols. 4. Europe still had the best armor in the world (plate armor), and some very high quality weapons through advanced metallurgy and craftsmanship.

This is one of your best vids! The takeaway I sense is that certain scientists, particularly the ones who wield the levers of control of the practical scientific community (who control who gets what grants and who gets preference for publishing in preferred journals) are biased against certain religious perspectives. And I think you've done a very good job of providing supporting evidence for that perspective. But your leading question is whether Christianity is anti-science. And you provided abundant supporting evidence to support the idea that Christianity has historically supported science as an endeavor. I would suggest the only group of Christians who could be characterized as 'anti-science' is a small but disproportionately influential group of hyper-literalists. Well done.

I always laugh when I hear that religion and science are enemies. You have to basically ignore all of reality to put forth this view. Religious people developed almost all we know or think we know in science today. Heck, the geneticist Francis Collins, who led the Human Genome Project, is a Christian. Algebra was created by a Muslim, the 0 was first used by the religious people in the Indus Valley. Newton, a devout Christian, made huge contributions to physics and developed Calculus. All throughout human history, it has been religious people almost exclusively who developed science and civilization.

I'm not saying that one should be witnessed by us to be established by us, I just find the most rational information there is to date and take it as being the truth.

I am Seventh Day Adventist, but I mainly consider myself as non-denominational. I do not know that the first creationist was from SDA. It's no more of a surprise because SDA's belief firmly holds the idea that God did create the world for six days. This what made a non-denominational philosopher academe. It was very uncomfortable to see my loving denominational faith held some dictums that are innerantly false. Regardless of how my denominational faith hold these, I rejected them. But I still live under the core principles of Christianity that SDA teaches. What made me love Christ is through the core principles and teaching of Christianity.

I've studied biblical and ancient texts and cultures since I was a child and no once in my reading did I ever assume a literalist interpretation, but I had the advantage of also having read contemporary texts so better understood the perspective. while the biblical texts do discuss the formation of matter, it is not a story told in genesis. the story in genesis is about God creating a place in which he and his children could dwell together, so the formation of the universe is irrelevant to the story. The writers simply assume that all the necessary parts are there already, which is extremely common in all of those contemporary texts.

@@azurephoenix9546 My biggest question about it is if an evolutionary standpoint where there is other people around along with Adam, would there be sin before Adam? If there was how could sin come through Adam? Did humanity just not sin until Adam did? It’s a very confusing thing. I’m not a YEC. And I’m not sure about evolution yet since I haven’t studied it deeply (though I’d lean towards it’s truth since that’s where modern scientific consensus seems to be going). It’s just hard for me to recognize other people around when Adam and Eve are there. The whole theology of a fallen world and an inherited sin nature are like the only questions I have with IP’s reading of the text. However I still find his series very convincing, and have at least a 75-80% confidence his reading is correct. (I also wonder about a local flood, since when in the NT it’s talked about how the world will be destroyed don fire like the flood, and that means a global fire and is universal. So if one is global and universal, would it imply the other is? This one is probably an easier one to answer, like it’s just comparing the destructive nature of events and contrasting the nature of how destruction will occur. It’s just one more convincing argument from the other side of the issue. These two issues are probably were the other side has the most weight, while their other arguments seem rather weak)
@azurephoenix9546
@azurephoenix9546 3 года назад
@@gospelfreak5828 I'm not sure that a regional flood several thousand years ago being called a global flood after the fact would necessitate an actual global flood. If we assume that "the world" is whatever the writers knew it to be, then if the world is to be destroyed by fire now or in the future, that would be absolutely possible with the weapons we have available to us today and still not negate the texts. If the world to them was 100 square miles, then that's what it was to them and that's what they wrote down. The concept of a global flood is contained in several texts in this region, so my assumption is that that was what "the world" was to everyone in the region when it happened and a flood covered that world, it was simply part of their commonly held history. Between and in the context of all the contemporary texts, this fact is absolute: The whole world was flooded. It could still have been a regional flood, and many think it was most likely a tsunami that flooded out the area, so it is completely possible that it did happen, that it was absolutely catastrophic, and as far as they were concerned, absolutely did cover the entire world. Moving on to Adam and Eve, I think they are probably archetypal figures used to illustrate the sin as opposed to being the only ones who sinned, though they very well may have been the first ones. In the story, the serpent and they have committed the same sin, which is to believe that they are wiser than they are and seek to become head over their own heads, to make themselves their own authority and ultimately their own Gods. The serpent seeks to usurp God's authority over man, and man seeks to illegally obtain the knowledge of God. Heiser posits that the knowledge would have been given to mankind at some future point, but I'm not sure that it would, or that it would matter much to the story. So Adam and Eve, as Heiser posits, were somehow in some position of preference to God, perhaps priest and priestess. This leads me to think that if they were, then it is likely that they had a following who were cast out along with them. I admit that my rationale for this is based on Seth and Cain both being married and having children without mentioning that their wives were also their sisters, but then the texts going on to establish that Abraham and Sarah were either half siblings or step siblings. If that wasn't anomalous and important, it is very unlikely it would have been mentioned, so the fact that none of the children of Adam and Eve seem to have any trouble finding non-relative mates and producing viable offspring with multiple generations, and that the text specifies "these are the generations of Adam" would indicate that those are the people who matter in the story and not the others who might also be present in that place and time. This is just my personal theory and I'm certainly happy to be corrected or disagreed with.

Invariably hiring practices at these universities would sort against theists period. Let's say hypothetically police tended to be far more religious than the general population. This is probably true to a degree as police officers tend to be politically conservative. Would it make sense to conclude based on this that atheism is in conflict with law enforcement in society? Based on Coyne's "logic" one should conclude in fact that atheism and law enforcement are mutually exclusive.

I mean yes, I grant the broad point. That there are some in the sciences who are hostile to faith and a subset of believers who are hostile to science isn't in doubt, but I don't think one can seriously state there is a direct conflict. The approaches diverge and there are ways in which finding natural explanations for phenomena makes believers work a bit more on their reasons, but this is all to the good. My one main concern with your video is it takes the Big Five personality traits to be things that are good (or in the case of neuroticism bad) in their own right. The literature doesn't tend to make that kind of value judgment. Extraversion can be either good or bad depending on the context, for instance. Too much agreeableness or conscientiousness can make one, for lack of a better term, a pushover and easily dominated. Too much openness to experience could mean experimentation that is dangerous or the inability to form strong beliefs. A complete lack of neuroticism also can be unhelpful, as stress and anxiety serve core biological and social functions in moderation. Your framing of four of the big five traits as desirable in their own right and the fifth as not so is thus a bit of an overgeneralization.

Thanks IP. I've listened to many who advocate "young earth" creation and note many are scientifically astute, articulate and demonstrate that Christians, of all stripes, do understand science. At the very least it's terminology. I don't believe deciding on, or agreeing with, what's the age of the earth and what, if any, evolutionary mechanism is valid has any bearing on my salvation, but bolsters the arguments against atheism. More intriguing, in my view, are the "hard consciousness problem", the information paradigm and origin of life. These problems, for the atheist, are the modern versions of the conclusion for Einstein's "relativity" which sent the scientific community into a tailspin, landing them squarely in fantasy lands of multiverses and changing the definition of "nothing". I love your work IP. You have purpose. But, I believe there's bigger fish to fry with than arguing against our brethren creationist. Dragonflies. No evolutionary precursors, as with bats. Monarch butterflies. Their unique migratory pattern. Mammalian reproduction, especially human beings. Just to name a few. Darwinian evolution, natural selection, has no explanatory power, in view of the unexplained. It sucks! And a lackatheism pipedream. As always God Bless, and keep up the good fight.

Then you are stuck in your own ignorance of the harsh truth that existence truly is. You're not only using an "I don't understand it so therefor it shouldn't exist" fallacy but also an "I don't like the idea of this so I'll pretend as if it's never real" due to the fact that most religious people are too afraid of the thought of leaving life never to see its glories again even though it is the most scientifically accurate representation of the beginning and end of life. Of course, you do not decide upon the age of earth, you don't have the power to. It is the earth upon itself that has an unconscious knowledge of that, and that, we can find through its aged remains and what we know of rocks. And evolution to put it simply isn't necessarily the teller of its beginning but rather its purpose, we have chemistry to figure that one out. What I mean by this is that we do have the knowledge that life shifts based on chemical changes, so it is those chemicals controlling the structure of life as we know it, so it is fairly reasonable to state that the origin of life goes back to those very necessary chemicals. Upon your 'salvation' do not regret bearing this thought after your dead, because you won't be alive to think about anything then. All those once thriving are now nothing more than hollow shells of their former selves. I understand that most of you theists hate this idea of the inevitable so you turn away from reality to something that you would like to listen to and just like that your problems are gone.

Neither does the age of the earth or the universe matter to me much neither, its just that us as humans strive to understand things.

@@randomango2789 Today maybe so, but I do not know what method he used to calculate the age of the world, as some kings reains and patriarchs overlap. Old or young Earth does not matter for me as much as the earth and universe had a begin and this is proven, by the wholly improbable advent of creation. Up until 1963 science had two different theroys on on the age of and how the universe was created. Constance creaction and enteral universe both were thrown out when the Big Ear radio telescope at bell labs heard a humm that eventually was proved to be the microwave echo of the big bang, the universe had a begin in time and space, and Cosmology has been trying to get back to the enteral universe ever since.

Ok what does Jesus say on this, nothing, what does Paul say nothing. This is a question of human thought, not unimportant, but don't get bent out of shape over it. it is an area of dispute. if you want a differnt view of it read the Unseen relam by Dr. Micheal Hosuer.

1 day = 1,000yrs God created and rested a total of 7 days = 7,000yrs since then man has ruled about 6,000 = 13,000yrs age of the universe = 13,000yrs and if the speed of light was a million times faster at the beginning a 13,000 year old universe would look like a 13 billion year old universe.

The only reason Christianity became "anti-science" is because naturalism took over as the premier belief system in the Western education systems, and naturalism needed a leg to stand on (similar to how Rabbinic/Orthodox Judaism needed the codex that became the Talmud, and people like Rav Akiba and Bar-Kochba to survive alongside Christianity).

The question of whether Christianity is anti-science is not the same as whether Christians are anti-science. There are so many anti-science questions that the question of whether Christians are anti-science (as in characterized by anti-science attitudes and beliefs) seems to me (even though I myself am a Christian) to be yes, at least in the US.

As without the eye there is no rainbow, so without the mind there is no phenomena to study. It depends on what you mean by science. Christianity is not against the scientific method. It is useful to make models of the patterns we observe. But we should not let the results undermine faith in love, hope, joy, life as the more fundamental realities which are more powerful than fear and death, just because such things are excluded from the axioms we use in science. Oddly enough only faith in love, hope, joy seems to be undermined by scientism, while fear increases. Well, not so weird, since in the world of matter, all things do decay, so there is no hope, thus no function for love or joy except at best as a distraction people feel a bit guilty for indulging in. In my view, Christianity must be against taking the axioms of science as dogma. We should not take it on faith that: 1. Anything we can observe has independent existence 2. The "laws" of nature are not changing over time 3. There is no purpose to what goes on Absolutely everything screams that these three are false, even though they let us approach natural science with a less biased method. Within local situations they are true enough to be useful. We should absolutely continue doing that type of science that uses these axioms. We should just be more concerned about the other things we do, way more concerned. Society is falling apart, because people are taking these axioms as some sort of (ironically) God given absolute, and then running about doing the best of it, their own lives being some sort of outlier that really should be ignored, but they just can't seem to.

12:21 "Christians, CHRISTIAN BELIEFS, and Christian institutions played crucial roles in fashioning the tenets, methods, and institutions of what in time became modern science..." 16:31 "By definition, Science and Christianity are different subjects..." Uh, looks like history doesn't support Gould's two magistrates model.

Well, to talk about Christianity as ONE box is a bit hard, but if I pick Evangelical (extremists/hardliners) here - I can guarantee you that among those here are anti-science people in every possible way. They can have contradicting claims, a bible verse always demonstrates truth - no matter what any scientific study would show. So... while you/we can question some conclusions, there is at least SOME truth behind the claims. At 2:35 if we ignore (atheists) and compare Evangelicals vs Protestants/Catholics we have significant difference in numbers... MORE than 2* the number claiming they are on the religions side vs science among Evangelicals, and they are 5 times LESS on the side of science than Protestants/Catholics. The difference might not be that big between average Joes, but it is among a smaller group. It can also be seen in that conspiracy theories flourish among the "extreme" Christians.
