  • Discussion on Christianity
    Unsure as to what you are saying, because one loves it doesn't mean one is a good person, I'm sure that those who commit atrocities against their fellow human beings love someone. Many friends who are atheists have love and concern for humanity but many things they may practise is still unacceptable to God.

    Sorry, the format on this forum is different to what I'm used to. May have responded to the wrong post. There are some posts that seem to think that anyone who believes in God is either a fanatic or badly educated. As neither is true I wanted to make a point, anyone can respond if they wish.
  • Discussion on Christianity
    C. F. von Weizsäcker (1912–2007): German nuclear physicist who is the co-discoverer of the Bethe-Weizsäcker formula. His The Relevance of Science: Creation and Cosmogony concerned Christian and moral impacts of science. He headed the Max Planck Society from 1970 to 1980. After that he retired to be a Christian pacifist.[192]
    Stanley Jaki (1924–2009): Benedictine priest and Distinguished Professor of Physics at Seton Hall University, New Jersey, who won a Templeton Prize and advocated the idea modern science could only have arisen in a Christian society.[193]
    Allan Sandage (1926–2010): astronomer who did not really study Christianity until after age forty. He wrote the article A Scientist Reflects on Religious Belief and made discoveries concerning the Cigar Galaxy.[194][195][196][197]
    Ernan McMullin (1924–2011): Ordained in 1949 as a catholic priest, McMullin was a philosopher of science who taught at the University of Notre Dame. McMullin wrote on the relationship between cosmology and theology, the role of values in understanding science, and the impact of science on Western religious thought, in books such as Newton on Matter and Activity (1978) and The Inference that Makes Science (1992). He was also an expert on the life of Galileo.[198] McMullin also opposed intelligent design and defended theistic evolution.[199]
    Joseph Murray (1919–2012): Catholic surgeon who pioneered transplant surgery. He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology in 1990. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christians_in_science_and_technology

    These are just a few of modern day scientists who are Christian, all seem quite well educated to me.

    As someone who has studied the scriptures I don't recognise most of what you claim is in the bible, do you think you may have misunderstood?
  • God CAN be all powerful and all good, despite the existence of evil
    Interesting that anyone would believe we live in a world where people are less likely to blindly follow others, not the impression I get when I see the majority of people with their hands glued to their phones. Whilst philosophy if fun and interesting and certainly makes you think 'outside the box' they are only opinions of clever but flawed men/women (although for some reason not many women) and most of them are dead.
