Science and Religion Are Incompatible

Pro: "I'll do my best to dispel all these "fulfilled prophecies" in one fell swoop." Pro challenged none of the prophecies. Pro could have tried to show they were "wrong", vague, or "up for interpretation." At the very least Pro could have challenged one and tried to hurt my credibility in the debate. Pro did not. Pro: "These prophecies only impress those who are already Christians. Why do you think that is?" I was raised in Mohammedism, became Agnostic, then after 7 years became a Christian. Walid Shoebat was raised in Mohammedism, then later became a Christian. Fred Hoyle was an Atheist and became a Christian. This disproves the generalization that to see Christianity or Christian prophecy as true, you have to be pre "indoctrinized". I can see it because a religion coming into being that has a great antichrist prophet, who sets up his god in the exact spot: Temple Mount, the great prophet sets up a graven image for people from all over the world to bow to, and is looking to oppose someone called the "King of Kings" to stand against in the end, looking for a person who will stand against the "King of Kings" to rule the world, and is literally the descendent of Ishmael is virtually impossible. Now add to it the Gospel finally going worldwide, then this group trying to genocide Christians and beheading Christians, a "rebellion" against God at the approximate time that Damascus is leveled, people begin rampantly mocking God, and the world's problem become "perplexing, and you've got quite a magical "guess". --- It's hardly a secret that being a creationist or challenging any concept that atheism uses will get you fired and ridiculed, whether your findings are valid/correct or not. http://www.nature.com... Nathaniel Abraham filed a lawsuit in US District Court in Boston saying that the Cape Cod research center dismissed him in because of his Christian belief that the Bible presents a true account of human creation. Abraham says in the suit that he lost his job as a postdoctoral researcher in a biology lab shortly after he told his superior that he did not blindly accept evolution as scientific fact. archive.boston.com/news/local/articles/2007/12/07/biologist_fired_for_beliefs_suit_says --- Kris Helphinstine said in a phone interview with The Bulletin newspaper of Bend that he included the supplemental material to teach students about bias in sources, and his only agenda was to teach critical thinking. "Critical thinking is vital to scientific inquiry," said Helphinstine, who has a master"s degree in science from Oregon State. "My whole purpose was to give accurate information and to get them thinking." Helphinstine was fired. http://pandasthumb.org... --- Pro: "In 1997, the British science journal Nature published the results of a random sampling of 1,000 scientists...approximately 40 percent of scientists proclaimed a belief in a personal God." Which sounds about like it should be seeing the UK is only 59.5% Christian and is the Grand Central Station of the New Atheist Movement and anti-Christian propeganda. https://en.m.wikipedia.org... --- Nevertheless, I challenge Pro's assessment with my own findings from the LA Times and Pew Polls. *Article snippet from the LA Times- -According to a survey of members of the American Assn. for the Advancement of Science, conducted by the Pew Research Center in May and June this year, a majority of scientists (51%) say they believe in God or a higher power, while 41% say they do not. Furthermore, scientists today are no less likely to believe in God than they were almost 100 years ago, when the scientific community was first polled on this issue. In 1914, 11 years before the Scopes "monkey" trial and four decades before the discovery of the structure of DNA, psychologist James Leuba asked 1,000 U.S. scientists about their views on God. He found the scientific community evenly divided, with 42% saying that they believed in a personal God and the same number saying they did not. Scientists have unearthed many important fossils since then, but they are, if anything, more likely to believe in God today." articles.latimes.com/2009/nov/24/opinion/la-oe-masci24-2009nov24 http://www.pewforum.org... --- Science Minds At the Top- Francis Collins- *Physician-geneticist noted for his discoveries of disease genes *lead the Human Genome Project. *Presidential Medal of Freedom *National Medal of Science.
