First of all, all laws of science began with presumptions(hypothesis) before they were further worked on and experimented upon. I don't know how I can make it any more clearer to you. The theories of evolution and the big bang are simply accepted premises that are being worked on. This doesn't mean that it is a fact. It just means that it is a thought process that certain evidences support.

Secondly, you are asking me why I don't believe the Christian creation story. For that, I have given you the obvious fallacies in that story.

Now I will ask you these questions and expect honest answers.

Why don't you believe the Hindu creation story that states that the God of creation Brahma was born from the navel of a snake?

Why don't you believe the Yoruba creation story that states that obatala left oludumare in the heavens and poured sand from his pouch to create the earth?

What makes you believe in the Christian version of creation that states that the entire universe was created in 6 days?

Your first paragraph seemed very reasonable but you went downhill from there pretty fast.

First of all, Science is not a person, or a political organisation or a belief system.
Science simply means acquisition of knowledge through study and practice.
The study of nature and how it's component bodies interact.
Simply put science means knowledge. That's why it has thousands of branches, because so far as you are studying and gaining knowledge of any natural component, you are a scientist.

You are attempting to combine science and religion and that is just so preposterous.

Religion is a BELIEF SYSTEM that claims to have the answers already and set fixed moral standards and etiquette for living and most importantly tells you never to doubt the knowledge being presented while science is simply acquiring further knowledge and challenging the premises of religion that tells you to have faith and never doubt what you are being told.

What makes this soo dangerous is that there are a lot of different religions with different contradictory beliefs and standards.

You as a Christian adherent believe that the entire universe was created in 6 days. A Buddhist monk who has different Gods believe that the origin God Brahma came from the navel of a snake, An igbo traditional worshipper believes that man fell from the sky and so many more different varieties of origin story.

WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO BELIEVE THAT YOUR OWN VERSION OF CREATION STORY IS BETTER THAN OTHERS.

Already scientists have punched a lot of holes in the Christian creation story.
God created the sun and the moon on the fourth day but created day and night on the second day how

Because of the limitations of the knowledge of those who wrote the bible, they didn't know of the numerous other planets out there, so they used the concept of time on earth for the creation story. A day on earth is about 14 days on another planet, so meaning that for other planets, it took God half a day to create the whole universe abi? You can see the shallowness of the Christian creation story and there are much more.

Meanwhile science presents a more logical THEORY. That of evolution.
It shows that the earth and man underwent great tremendous changes over billions of years to form and be what we are now. Discovered fossils and carbon dating are supporting this theory.

If you ask me I know which is more reasonable and logical between the two.
And moreso the beauty of science is that the current belief is subject to change and challenge, unlike that of religion that will punish you for even thinking of challenging it's story.

Science will continue to unravel the current mysteries of the universe but you must open your mind to learning and seeking new knowledge not confining yourself to an anachronistic mindset.

Danhumprey:


The Bible. The Bible. The Bible.

How do you think the Bible came about? The Bible you hold so dearly, how did it came about? It fell from above into the hands/laps of primitive men? Is that so? Or was it the compilations of the imaginations of primitive men who wrote down their hallucinations about things they didn't understand about their time and surrounding? And pass it off as the "word of God"?

Or that the Bible is a plagiarised work, copiously copied from earlier pagan texts, customs and traditions of ancient civilizations?

A cursory study of the Bible will leave a sane mind horrified and discombobulated with what's written there in.




And. For. The. Umpteenth. Time, Science. Is. Not. Trying. To. Disprove. God!

popizaino:



So if Brahman the God of creation was born from a navel of a snake so who then created that navel and the snake itself?

FBS:

lol. It does not have the capacity to do so which was precisely my point.

And oh you think you are not primitive?

donjazet:


Who created your own God?
Clarify the loopholes in your own creation story for me. Where was the light from that created day and night on the first day?

Why are you not a Moslem?
What makes you chose Christianity over your great grandfather's religion?
