For creationists and non-creationists the facts are the same. The differences between the two lie in the interpretation of the facts. <\/strong>Christians must be discerning when it comes to scientific facts versus someone’s scientific interpretation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The discovery of an expanding universe points to a beginning or point of origin for the universe which favors the idea \u00a0of a creator. Instead interpreters of science peddle the “Big Bang” idea.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The “Big Bang” idea leaves open the question of where the materials, gases, etc. came from that were necessary for the “Big Bang”. \u00a0Because there is\u00a0no satisfactory observable answer to this question, it becomes a matter of faith to hold this position.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The laws of physics confirm that particles released from an explosion all rotate in the same direction. \u00a0We would expect therefore that all heavenly bodies in our solar system rotate in the same direction.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recent discoveries indicate that there are a couple of heavenly bodies in our solar system that are exceptions to this rule. \u00a0At least one of these exceptions rotates in the opposite direction of all\u00a0the\u00a0other heavenly bodies in our solar system. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

How should we interpret this finding? \u00a0Are the laws of physics incorrect? \u00a0Not likely, since repeatable observable phenomenon concerning explosions confirm these laws. \u00a0Perhaps we should just consider that our solar system and the universe did not start by the way of an explosion?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Those who would exclude God from the interpretation, look at the precise arrangement of Stonehenge and conclude that an amazing intelligent civilization built it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The same people then look at our solar system with its precise timing, rotation and delicate balance to sustain life ( a finely crafted timepiece) and conclude that it is not the product of intelligent design?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Which is it? \u00a0You decide, but please do not condemn faith’s role in the equation. \u00a0An honest assessment should conclude that faith is a factor on both sides of this argument. \u00a0It is just that someone’s faith is misplaced.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is hypocritical of those who believe science has all the answers, to belittle Creationists for “faith” when non-Creationists resort to faith in future discoveries of science when science cannot provide all the facts presently.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Christian faith is not a blind leap in the dark. \u00a0Christian faith is built upon the integrity of Scripture and the integrity of scripture is well established.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The B<\/strong>ible is unmatched in the fulfillment of prophecy and it’s accuracy on timing and predicting future events. \u00a0 <\/strong>Biblical names and places have been affirmed over and over again by archaeology when the interpreters of science said they didn’t exist.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Bible is not a product of human thought in that it does not cover up the failings and short comings of its main characters and people as a human author would. \u00a0This book tells all without bias and without cover up. \u00a0It is a divine book and it fully exposes the guilt of mankind in general and God’s people alike for rebellion and self will. \u00a0Those that are changed by it’s truth are never the same. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The fact that the Bible is the most published and printed book in the history of mankind, should prompt even the most devout doubter to examine the Bible’s pages and consider it’s claims.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. \u00a0<\/em>Hebrews 11:3 KJV<\/strong><\/p>\n
