How do evolutioninsts stick with what they think?

How do evolutionist and scientists stick to what they think about how the earth formed and how humans came? Why dont they just look in the Bible and see that everything is answered there?

Maybe because the Bible isn't science. Make sense?

Oh yes, welcome to Tweb.

Actually many scientists do accept the Bible's version of origins. Evolution isn't the be all and end all of science.

In the Bible-Belt, there are many agronomists who are born again Bible believing Christians. If you like your food safe and plentiful, which it is in the USA, you'll love American agronomists.

Many in the medical profession profess Christ, and Jesus's respect of Scriptural Authority and validation of Moses' writing.

Many of these scientists; neurologists, oncologists, cardiologists, pathologists, and so on, are extremely valuable to society, and, while they accept the problems of bacteria's uncanny ability to adapt (the reason there is a hesitation by pediatricians to prescribe antibiotics to children and thereby force a virus to adapt too soon in their lives), they have no problem accepting a Creator-God.

Hi Dolphunatic,

Welcome to TWeb.

In the context of the earth’s formation and human origins and subsequent development, what do you mean by “everything is answered [in the Bible]”?

What I am essentially asking is what do you mean by “everything” and “answer” in the context of earth formation and human origins and subsequent development?

Hi dolphunatic, and welcome.

In reply to your question, it's because they can't find everything answered there, and some of the answers, if read as if from a literal textbook, don't work. There are no answers to evidence that contradicts a global flood, for example, nor answers to why and how the pattern of life on earth has changed in the way it evidently has.

OK, where does the Bible give instructions for first aid for broken legs?

The standard deviation in a sample space of one is undefined.

I expect that if you freely rearrange selections of words from the Bible, you could form the answer to any question you care to think of. Remember, rearranging things cannot increase information, so all the information, all the answers, must be in there somewhere already.

Oh, blast! All the incorrect answers will be in there too...

Most of the people you cite are educated professionals and not scientists. There are very few scientists who accept the literal Biblical version over the accepted scientific version of the history of the universe, earth, life and himanity. The Newsweek survey, and others, indicated that over 95% of degreed professionals accept the scientific version and among scientists whose field is related to evolution the figure is over 98%, at least.

I grew up on a farm and got my first degree in Agronomy at Oklahoma State, and some of my friends on the farm and in school were fundimentalist Christians who did not accept the scientific explanation before or after they completed their degree. They turned out to be good professional specialists and I worked with people like them for fifteen years, but as far as science goes they were dumb as stumps before and after they got their degrees.

No, but it IS the reigning model explaining the diversity of life, by a very, very wide margin,

I don't know what you consider "many" or how that number, whatever it is, compares to those scientist who do accept evolution, but right now the signatories to "Project Steve" represent about 73,300 scientists who not only endorse evolution, but consider creationism and ID to be inappropriate subjects for school science curricula.

And shunyadragon is quite right in pointing out the difference between educated professionals and scientists.

[Medical doctors] have no problem accepting a Creator-God.

A "creator-god" is not an issue of evolution. Many Theists, Christians included, accept evolution and denounce creationism. These evolutionist-Christians even "profess Christ, and Jesus's [sic] respect of Scriptural Authority and validation of Moses' writing."

Thanks that makes a lot of scence. I never thought of it that way. Thanks.

Thanks. When I say that "everything is answered in the Bible" I mean that it explains how humans came to be and where all of the animals came from, all of those type of things that many evolutionists are against. Im not saying that all evolutionists are like that but many are.
