Evidence for God from Science

I was going to post about this before I saw it already here. I'm on Spring Break, but lots of my friends are talking about this considering one of the professors at my university is a co-leader of this project (so it's a big deal for our school in general). Pretty cool stuff.

The evidence used to put together these maps/timelines for human migration patterns over our history pretty conclusively rejects any kind of young-Earth beliefs about humanity's history. Obviously these kinds of genetic and archaeological studies seem to show not only an African genesis of humanity ...

The reporting on this story is pretty poor. I mean, no mention of why he was paralyzed/what caused his paralysis? No quotes from his doctors explaining his condition? No follow up after he regained the ability to walk? It's a nice story, but I'm going to guess that there is a lot more that could hav...

Sorry, when I said "literal interpretation", I meant "literal" as in how YEC adherents see it. I realize other interpretations can be just as literal, but in the context of talking about Ken Ham's views I meant it as how he sees it.

I would have much preferred to see Dr. Hugh Ross debate Bill Nye with the local flood theory and other OEC claims. Sadly, much of the world will never get to understand the true claims of the Bible. :( Nye wouldn't debate someone over local flood theory (I think most atheists will probably accept t...

Nothing in this article is technically new information. The chromosome 2 bit of information is a tremendous and fascinating example of how genetic research has added so much to the list of evidence for evolution. A creationist could argue that such blatant relatedness between humans and other primat...

Did I miss it? Is there a link to the debate somewhere? Here's a link to the debate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6kgvhG3AkI I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but from what I have seen, there is nothing earth-shattering about either side to be seen. Ham was less interested in evidence for Y...

Oh no, you didn't put me off of replying...this week I'm just extra busy with exams and papers for school so I haven't had much free time. Once I get through the next couple days I'll reply in greater detail.

What exactly is your concern/problem with the IB program? I was never a part of it (my school became an IB school the year after I graduated), but my brother takes a few IB classes and loves it. As far as I can tell, my school's IB classes have gotten rave reviews overall. Lots of schools in the are...

Most conspiracy theories are probably completely wrong. You hit the biggest reason why...the huge conspiracy theories that get press would, in reality, be impossible to actually keep secret for all-time. That, and pretty much every case for a conspiracy theory that I've seen can be easily explained ...

You should not worry too much. Fixing hernias is one of the most common surgeries performed by doctors, and I have never heard of one going badly from anyone I know. My younger brother had a hernia when he was 10 or so years old and was perfectly fine. I had a non-typical hernia when I was around 12...

As a non-Christian, I figured I would give my personal responses to these arguments, as well as explaining why many atheists, agnostics, and non-Christians might reject them. 1. God provides the best explanation of the origin of the universe. To me, this is both a good and bad place to start. On one...

Ivellious, I'm not really sure I see the moral dilemma. Firstly, the instances are rare if not near impossible that a decision needs to come down to choosing one life over the other: http://www.abort73.com/end_abortion/is_abortion_ever_justified/. Secondly, I just don't see that the husband is choo...

I'm not married, but I figure it's wrong to say it's always good or always bad to keep secrets from a spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend, whatever it is. After all, I can't see the harm in not telling your spouse that their meatloaf is just so-so or that you actually hate that band he/she makes you liste...

So while I was watching a television show a rather interesting moral/ethical issue (to me, anyway) came up. In a nutshell, a young woman and her husband go to the hospital for potential issues with her current pregnancy, which is pretty far along. They find out that she has a very deadly and very fa...
