The views of two scientists Atheism is inconsistent with the scientific method. That’s the view of Marcelo Gleiser, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Dartmouth College. He says that atheism is a statement that expresses belief in nonbelief. “I don’t believe even though I have no evidence for or against, simply I don’t believe”. Or […]

God and science
Is God obsolete? Has God been replaced by science? Nobel Prize winners John Lennox noted that if science and God do not mix, there would be no Christian Nobel Prize winners. In fact, between 1900 and 2000 over 65% of Nobel Laureates were self-confessed believers in God. The statistics were taken from Shalev (2005) and […]

Is the theory of biological evolution science or history?
Here is a conversation I had with Dr Jay Wile on whether “historical science” (like the theory of biological evolution) is science or history. Is it scientific or is it an historical narrative (a story written by scientists based on what they believed happened in the unverifiable past)? Other conversations on this topic are given […]

When science caught up with the Bible
The universe had a beginning The pagan Greek philosophers thought the physical universe had no beginning. To Plato (428-348 BC), the universe was perfect and unchanging. And Aristotle (384–322 BC) argued that the world (matter) must have existed from eternity. If the universe could never have gone from nothingness to somethingness, it must always have […]

It is not necessary to invoke God”. But Professor John Lennox, Oxford University, disagrees: “The universe is […]

In this post we look at someone swimming upstream against the tides of atheism. This post is based on the documentary movie “Against the tide” by Pensmore Films, in which the actor Kevin […]

Limitations of atheistic creation stories
Approximately 15 million Indians have been made redundant in the economic slowdown during the coronavirus pandemic. The majority of these are women who were doing low-skilled work. In a similar way, is God unnecessary because science can now explain all we need to know about the universe? The big-bang model and the theory of biological […]

Biblical geology
This post comes from a book by Oard and Carter (2021). Biblical geology is much more sophisticated than skeptics both inside and outside of Christianity assert. Over 60 years of research, often published in technical journals as well as popular books and magazines, have produced an impressive body of evidence. Sloppy examination of creation science, […]

Christians discovered and invented science
A common view is that there is a perceived conflict between Christianity and science. But this is erroneous because Christians discovered and invented science. This post is based on a book by Dominic Statham. Science Scientists seek to gain knowledge of the laws which govern how the natural world works. They describe these laws rather […]
