When skeptics raise an eyebrow and ask me how I, a scientist, can believe in the miracles of the Bible, I tell them if I can believe God created an entire universe, complex life, and consciousness, why is it a stretch to believe he also spoke to Moses through a burning bush or turned water into wine? These same skeptics are often fine with a universe that just magically pops into existence or some unknown mechanism cranking out infinite universes. But Jesus walking on water is a bridge too far. 🤦‍♀️

If we want to love our preborn neighbors as ourselves, we must criminalize abortion.

Scientists investigating collagen’s survival in dinosaur fossils tested specially made molecules in the lab. No fossil bones were examined.  Their experiments showed how changes in molecular structure can make certain bonds easier to break. Fine, but they didn’t establish that collagen can survive for millions of years. Let's see why Dr Lucien Tuinstra argues that these findings leave the deep-time preservation problem unresolved Read the full article: creation.com/articles/weaken…

Believing in millions of years undermines the authority of Scripture and can put people on that slippery slide of unbelief, and it also attacks God’s character.

Christians are responsible for the abolition of slavery. Christians are responsible for massive advancements in science. Christians are responsible for human rights. Christians are responsible for the most charitable organisations in the world.

I’ve been seeing this for years: Me: here’s an argument demonstrating that there’s a necessary being Atheist: but that doesn’t prove the being is conscious Me: here’s an argument demonstrating the necessary being is conscious Atheist: but that doesn’t prove the necessary being is perfect Me: here’s an argument demonstrating the necessary being is perfect Atheist: but that doesn’t prove it’s the God of Christianity Me: here’s an argument demonstrating Christianity is true Atheist: but that doesn’t prove your denomination is true 👆this is called “moving the goalposts.” Just because I happen to be a Christian, that doesn’t mean every single argument I make proves my entire theology. Some arguments demonstrate some things, and some arguments demonstrate other specific things. Lawyers do the same thing. They use one argument to demonstrate motive, then they use another argument to demonstrate the suspect was able to commit the crime, then another argument for why it’s likely they did commit the crime, etc. Different arguments for different things, it’s not that complicated.

No human embryo should be treated as a means to an end—much less, as a statistically necessary sacrifice for others’ ambitions.

All women know when conception happens that there is a child developing in their womb. They know they have another living human being present, living, and growing in their body. IF they choose to take action to end that life, they have the mens rea and know what their actions will result in (death of an innocent human being). They can and should be held criminally responsible for their actions.

Disagreement isn’t hatred or phobia, it’s just disagreement.

The fossils do not tell you how old they are. The rocks do not even tell you how old they are. Deep time is an interpretation based on radiometric dating and assumptions.

For those of you who are newly following me, I don't just "talk out my butt". I don't always get everything right (but I have a decent record of high accuracy). I am a diligent and thoughtful person who does my homework before formulating opinions and posting them. Now you know.

It’s not worth it
