Consider Your Ways

Sonorous arguments of responsibility and consequence allow many people to create many fallacies. We are able to witness the rise of the solipsism generation. The truth easily finds itself bowdlerized. Chimera lead many on adventures shimmering with false hope, glimmering with dangerous spectacles. Substance remains lost or secondary. We are encouraged to revere the work of the clerisy without too much challenge, without too much thought, without too much debate.

And so modern scientific thought rises brimming with circumlocutory grandness. The public conscience asks for everything seminal, everything sclerotic. The scurrility of conceit drives much scientific thought which excuses the ideas of responsibility and consequence of action. A hastily constructed and reinforced scrupulosity exists which makes conversation divisive as anything other than complete acceptance is not to be tolerated, is instantly seen as divisive. So we have the battle between creationism and evolution. Is evolution really superior thought? Is there a sentimentalization for the superiority of man and man’s intellect posing as genuine theory.

The vibrancy of each argument for scientific thought screams out in stentorian sensational tones like gossip magazine cover headlines viewed on grocery store magazine racks. There is much to see, little to believe. Science creates its own questions and then creates its own answers. Within scientific thought there rests an element of subterfuge, an element of esoterica, an element of falsity, a notion of obliquity.

How we live, how we defend our decisions, how we defend our faith and our religion is important. Modern thought accepts and promotes the scientific method as the only method for thought. A danger waits in this stubbornness. Human beings are unpredictable. Sin is unpredictable. Goodness is unpredictable. There is no way to predict how any human will act in all circumstances, no way to predict when we will tell the truth, when we will tell a lie. All of the emotions manifest themselves differently in each one of us.

What we share with and how we share can not be one hundred percent be predicted accurately. There is a margin of error within scientific thought which is downplayed.

As Christians we are creatures of goodness, creatures of evil. We can love, hate. We can sin, avoid sin. Our lives include all types of thoughts and rituals. What is your hypothesis for the creation of life on this planet, in the universe? Where does God fit into your theory?

Scientific thought removes God from a very important debate on the creation and existence of life. Evolution presents only one argument, one way for life to have begun and matured on this planet based upon a scientific model. God’s involvement is challenged and removed.

The real danger of scientific thought is how easily its questions and formulas can be used as tools against God, tools to challenge all goodness, all holiness, all validity of religious thought.
