About 8 minutes is material on A. Schneider's 1859 workup of tectonic plates during the deluge in what he called "continental sprint" (not drift as per Wegner). About 12 minutes in is material on the abrupt formation of the "Little Grand Canyon" near Mt St Helens. The title itself is being...

“Religion and Science” C.S. Lewis (Literature, Oxford, d.1955) in GOD IN THE DOCK, #7 abridged “Miracles,” said my friend, “Oh, come. Science has knocked the bottom out of all that. We know that Nature is governed by fixed laws.” “But, don't you see,” said I, “that science never could show...

You can google that much, but I was waiting to comment until I had established at least one category: are they all are referring to something beyond their immediate known region?

Modern naturalism since the Huxley war on religion began is to view the world as a closed system of natural causes and effects. Let's see how this is working out. I would appreciate all of you weighing in on evolution generally in light of this theory about the moon since it is predominant...

8, the nations. This section (Gen 1-11) is for the nations to know and understand that Yahweh – I AM – the LORD is the Creator. Yahweh is simply the first person singular of 'to exist.' The neighboring nations would have had some remants of these accounts in their cosmology but surprised to...

7, the canopy. We find attention to Gen 1 and 6 about waters above the earth, distinct from those on the earth. Ie, a canopy. We find in Gen 6 in the account of the flood that the canopy crashes. The idea of a greenhouse effect is inevitable. 2:6 says there was ground irrigation but not...

6, the days. There is no reason that these cannot be 6 days as we know them. There is nothing about God's creation that is a 'mountain to big for him to lift.' He can re-order any part. The waters of the Red Sea were made to stand for a limited amount of time for the nation to move along...

3 'formless and void' 4 other things before creation 5 the image of God 5, the image of God. Having destroyed what was there, and to reassert his reign over this earth, man is made in God's image. This expression has to do with ancient kings marking their territory. An image was usually...

1, section titles 2, the heavens 3, 'formless and void' 4 other things before the beginning While the Bible speaks only about life on earth, we find that it is not geo-centric. "The universe is full of angels, beings, entities"--E. Goodrick, Multnomah U., Greek. It's just that the Bible only...

1: section titles 2: the heavens 3, 'formless and void.' This Hebrew expression is only used one other time in the OT and it is about the destroyed Jerusalem. This is how we find the earth after the section title. It is the setting, just as 5:2 or 6:1 or 6:11 are settings and the new...

2, the heavens. We will not find much about the distant heavens. The text is concerned with the local solar system and those objects that are in the expanse of the sky. This refers to the canopy which is discussed below. Only its objects are 'the heavens.' Using NT interpretation, the...

Basic Principles of Genesis 1 Cosmology (origins) 1, the text has section titles. When torah was memorized, the students were to start at the section title prompted by the teacher and go to the next. The section titles are not action in the story. The action comes in the next line, although...

I hope that some of you have digested what Lewis asked when he told his scientist pal that all the scientists were looking at was Nature, and to say that that is the only thing out there is artificial and misleading when one tries to form a true view of the world. This is in "Religion and...

I understand the intention of the city clerk who has been jailed in Kentucky for not granting same sex marriage licenses. But we need to size up things here and take a 200 year look. If anyone here at TOL knows how to get this message to her, I think we can save her some grief. I will be...

In responding to ID arguments about genetics in TIME several years back, I think Dawkins made his most egregious error. But I only mention it to whet your appetite for a quote from Lewis. What Dawkins said was that "if there is a god, he is infinitely more powerful and intelligent than...

Finally, NT Eschatology item #10: "saved" in Rom 11 is not a restored theocracy Hope you have enjoyed the journey but some of you have been totally speechless. Just take any of the 'theses' and write them vertically: like this and ask about each word if you have to, until it is clear. In...

good luck competing with the Bible and the historic Christian positions on many of things. God raised up Paul to express the Gospel of justification from our sins in a way that many people would not otherwise see that Christ was saying the same thing. Anyway, a sermon is not a thing arranged...
