There are those who think that to love God is to despise the hard sciences. While it is true that many in the sciences style themselves as atheists, one can not throw out the baby with the bath water! God IS the greatest scientist, the greatest mathematician, the greatest lover, the greatest artist, the greatest poet and the greatest comedian. These are only to name a few of the things that our Master,  God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob is. Everything that IS, is made by our Lord. When one studies anything in nature, one studies the personality, desires and loves of their Maker. In fact, to study science is to be humbled and only the most stubbornly willful can prevent themselves from falling on their knees in joyful worship! Enjoy our precise and mathematical God as displayed in this video. Remember, existence is NOT an accident- it is an incredibly precise DESIGN.  And YOU are the most important part!

My dear friend LoopyLoo at http://www.loopyloo305.com posted this video and I am reposting it for you all. It addresses my greatest belief: ANYONE who studies science & math MUST come before God with glory. Only the most willful person can ignore what they find with their microscopes & MRI’s. God’s creation is a beautiful and incredibly designed masterpiece that will… well, blow your mind. As a Biochemistry major w/ a fondness for math (probability & statistics is my poison), I can tell you that it is mathematically more feasible to believe that God created all this than to believe that it was all a great ‘accident’- the ONLY great ‘accident’ in the Universe thus far- and in a world where accidents NEVER lead to order- but rather to chaos. The greatest worshipers of God should be our scientists. And yet, it is not so. Christians, feel confident that great minds are rare- and they certainly are not the exclusive property of so-called ‘science’. Those who do possess true intelligence and yet deny the elephant in the room (ie, the incredible DESIGN of life) are merely shackled by revulsion of the bended knee. Sometimes, they lack good ol’ common sense.

I have never understood why people who claim to be scientists, by a vast majority, also call themselves atheists.  The study of science, erroneously credited as the premier doorway to knowledge, must inevitably lead to awe, humility and at the very minimum, heavy proof of intelligent design.  And yet, according to today’s scientists, it doesn’t.  They don’t see a giant elephant in the room.  So, I would like to propose the following questions & have an atheist answer them:

Does evolution’s notion that the design of all life is powered by the need to improve its own procreation answer the following questions? (more…)

My new church: a humble place where miracles happen...

Many so-called atheists love to compare my belief in God to a belief in something silly, like unicorns.  But their anger always belies their smugness.  They know the truth.  And it makes them mad.

In several articles, I have disparaged the atheist ‘scientific’ mindset in its blatant contradictory belief in super intelligent aliens, but not in the possibility of God.  Isn’t he, technically, a super intelligent alien?   A being, not of this world, that is so much more intelligent than us that we cannot comprehend him?  I also like to point out the self contradiction of atheist scientists who are, even now, creating life in test tubes and yet, find it impossible that we might be the creation of another life form’s test tube.  (more…)

Replicating Al Gore’s Climate 101 video experiment shows that his “high school physics” could never work as advertised

Readers may recall my previous essay where I pointed out how Mr. Gore’s Climate 101 Video, used in his “24 hours of climate reality”, had some serious credibility issues with editing things to make it appear as if they had actually performed the experiment, when they clearly did not. It has taken me awhile to replicate the experiment. Delays were a combination of acquisition and shipping problems, combined with my availability since I had to do this on nights and weekends. I worked initially using the original techniques and equipment, and I’ve replicated the Climate 101 experiment in other ways using improved equipment. I’ve compiled several videos. My report follows.

First. as a refresher, here’s the Climate 101 video again:

I direct your attention to the 1 minute mark, lasting through 1:30, where the experiment is presented.

And here’s my critique of it: Video analysis and scene replication suggests that Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project fabricated their Climate 101 video “Simple Experiment”

The most egregious faked presentation in that video was the scene with the split screen thermometers, edited to appear as if the temperature in the jar of elevated CO2 level was rising faster than the jar without elevated CO2 level.

It turns out that the thermometers were never in the jar recording the temperature rise presented in the split screen and the entire presentation was nothing but stagecraft and editing. (more…)

Dan Shecktman Spews Eggs on Atheist Linus Pauling

In yet another example of the ENTIRE scientific community being wrong and ONE man being right, a Jewish scientist proves that ‘science was wrong.’ Just like one man thought the earth revolved around the sun, right? And yet, atheist scientists continue their historic arrogant march of ignorance- blinded by their own hubris, so sure in their ability to ‘know’ anything at all and their NEED to believe what they want to believe.  In the article below, you will see a ‘good’ scientist who believes in humility and that ANYTHING is possible. Ridiculed by the ‘best scientists’ of the modern-day and ignobly kicked out of the prevailing science community, he rises supreme above them all in victory as he claims the most coveted recognition in the science community- the Nobel Prize. He takes a dig at his nemesis, Linus Pauling, who mocked him as a ‘quasi-scientist’. Pauling is listed as being one of the 50 Greatest Atheist Minds of all time. Pauling proves the point I made in my previous article, “Why Atheists Make the Worst Scientists’, to a tee. Good science is not, nor ever can be, based on what can NOT be.  It must always keep its mind open to the possiblity that ANYTHING is possible.  Hence, atheist scientists’ claim that a belief in God is ‘unscientific’, ‘illogical’, or ‘irrational’  is equal nonsense.  A good scientist will always admit that.

Sailors Are Stupid, Scientists Are Smart!

I am offended. Not as a Christian, but as a scientist and mathematician. Probability & Statistics are my closest friends. Science is my lens to God. In my own intellectual quest to find God in this world, my emotions play only the role of admirer. They do not rule me, nor does my approach to religion or science. The two, to me, are one. I fear no scientific discovery and welcome Solomon’s encouragement to seek knowledge and wisdom in this human life of mine.  Science merely uncovers the greatest Scientist’s fascinating methods- just as humor reflects the greatest Comedian and poetry, the greatest Poet.  Nothing more.   All human discovery is, to me, a further reason to worship.

That being said, I am offended by the lack of good science and logic in today’s overwhelmingly atheistic science community. (more…)

"The Eagle Has Landed!"

After Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed, Armstrong uttered the now-famous words, “Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.” The pair plants an American flag on the surface, collects scientific samples, and arranges experiments. Savor this moment because it will never happen again.

Some of you might think I refer to Obama’s scuttling of the Space Shuttle program.  But I’m not.  Just because the space shuttle program has ended (which also ends the Hubble Telescope program as it depends on the Shuttle) doesn’t mean people won’t continue reaching for the stars.  The dream of space travel will outlast Obama.

I am referring to the planting of that flag. (more…)

Book Review: “Voyage of the Mind Carriers” by Gary Wolf.

“Voyage of the Mind Carriers”

There is only one way so much novel could be squeezed into such a thin book: prose so tight it squeaks. Right from the get-go, “Voyage of the Mind Carriers”, written by Gary Wolf, vortexes the reader right into the opening scene of the novel- a lush N.Y. city socialite party. “Voyage of the Mind Carriers” begins with a relatively unknown writer who is lured into re-writing a newly discovered ancient text- a 60,000 year old novel! He meets an archeologist who cannot get the science community to legitimize the discovery and in desperation, asks him to re-write it in fiction form. Thus begins the journey of Detective Baxter, the main character of the ancient novel, into a primitive, yet fully modern society where Earth is considered only one cell of an Omnificent Cerebrum. Other sentient and logical beings live on other ‘cells’ throughout the galaxy and some can even cross between. A new philosophy, Bioprimalism, is ‘infecting’ the logic obsessed Home Cell community with a lust to overthrow logical thought in favor of primal, natural urges. Detective Baxter, upon discovering the death of a prominent bioprimalist, discovers that he, himself, is actually from another cell and has been entrusted with a secret mission so vital that nothing less than the salvation of the Home Cell is at stake. This novel-inside-a-novel will not only entrance any science fiction reader, but any philosopher as well. As in the great tradition of C.S. Lewis and Madeleine L’Engle, the questions of God, spirituality, nature, man, logic and human reasoning lie at the heart of this entrancing novel. I would recommend it to any serious thinker. – Susan Shannon, blogger Short Little Rebel

Genisis 1:  26-27 “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”

Gensis 3:22 “And the LORD God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.”

I used to ask myself, “Why does God limit our lives because we ‘have now become like one of [Them], knowing good & evil’?  Let me ask you,  would you want Anthony Weiner to live forever? (more…)

Humans Are Not Special

Evolution adherents claim vehemently that evolution does not question the existence of God.  It simply states that people are merely a result of an ongoing mutation string that started with DNA-like strands which mutated to plants, to animals, to apes, to us.   Evolution says, specifically the speciation segment, that humans are nothing special.   We are simply another animal on earth.  We were not, in fact, created by a God who endowed us with the special thing we call a ‘soul’.  Evolution further explains the fact that every human culture evolved with a belief in God, spirits & souls as some necessary believe system that somehow ensures the survival of each of our respective eggs & sperms.  Somehow, our DNA demands a belief in God.

Big, Giant Calcium Pills

Take calcium pills, take calcium pills, take calcium pills! That is all I hear from my husband, my doctor and all the scientists. I am a small, Asian woman- so take calcium pill, take calcium pills, take calcium pills. Have you ever seen those things? They’re HUGE! I gag every time, tears squeezing from my bulging eyes as the pill inevitably gets stuck in my throat. I wash it down with a huge glass of milk- cause, you know, it has CALCIUM! Last year, I put my foot down. I told my husband, “If evolution makes us just as we should be, then WHY should I have to swallow a big pill to be healthy? I’ll just stick to milk, thank you!

Look, I respect the science field. But lately, especially concerning the ‘science’ of evolution, I have become skeptical of many scientist’s motives. Remember, every pill they tell you take benefits a pharmaceutical company. It is good to be skeptical of all science studies before we blithely jump on the band wagon. Look to see who funded the study and which company will make money.

Today, my ire has turned to a smug sense of, “I told ja so!”. ‘Cause now the ‘scientists’ say too much calcium is BAD for you! Yeaaaa! So no more pills, ladies. Be natural. Exercise, eat right (organically if possible), be happy (love God), and you will be just as healthy as can be. (that is, until all that mercury from the CFL bulbs seep into the groundwater and starts to mutate our cells- but that is another topic).

Western, White Scientists Determine What Exists

The thing I love about atheists is that they love jargon.  Scientific jargon.  Especially when they want to refute creationism or religion.  Example:

“The statement that “the Theory of Evolution has never been proven…” makes me suspicious that you do not understand what a ‘theory’ is in the scientific sense. It does not mean “guess”, nor is it even a mere “hypothesis”. It is a word with a very specific meaning for an explanation which a) explains the relevant data, b) explains new data as it is gathered, c) is falsifiable (that is, it can be demonstrated to be false) and d) makes testable predictions and through verification of these testable predictions our confidence in the validity of the hypothesis is increased. Natural selection has all of these attributes in spades. At some point, the hypothesis is so well supported by evidence and has passed many tests that it is no longer just a hypothesis, but becomes a theory. Natural selection is so well supported that it is considered a factual theory. That is, natural selection is indeed the mechanism by which speciation occurs. At this point, I cannot even imagine what possible evidence against natural selection could be uncovered. It is just that well supported by evidence and successful hypothesis testing….” 

Blah, blah, blah.  The word ‘ignorance’, ‘uneducated’, ‘un-informed’ are often used as well.  (more…)
