  • The bible has predicted ALL scientific discovery??? If that's the case, then why do we bother w/science and research at all? I mean what are you talking about?
  • Didn't the Catholic church only somewhat recently un- excommunicate Galileo for daring to say the sun did not orbit the earth? "All" scientific discovery would be a bit of a leap, I'd think, unless you have some interesting verses I missed about nano-particles, radio and light waves, nuclear reactions, the way time slows as you reach the speed of light... but... I kinda forgot where I was going with this. I think I was going to ask you for some verses where the Bible had predicted something. As for "Theory" -- it means the same thing as hypothesis, except when it's in sarcasm quotes like you have it. No, really. Semantically loaded vs semantically neutral use.
  • Wow. Good point.
  • Because they're scared.
  • May I ask how it predicted all scientific discovery? I really doubt this.
  • I cease to be amazed anymore at you people.
  • Yeah I remember Jesus texting people with his Iphone. Name 10 scientific discoveries the bible predicted, and the passages they're found in.
  • It OK you don't have to refer to evolution as a theory any more. If you want to hold onto it for sentimental reasons .........
  • Hmmmm if that is the case, let's see an example of scientific discovery that has yet to happen? I can take any religion and retroactively fit it to modern scientific theory if i am willing to suspend my belief in honesty just long enough to bs the world. Honestly, islam is probably more scientific than christianity.
  • Show me in the Bible where it says that the nucleus of an Atom is composed of protons and neutrons and that the those are further composed of quarks. Then maybe we'll talk.
  • Crabsawser, please provide evidence of the Bible predicting ALL scientific discovery. Then I'll answer the question.
  • Bible have only abstract level, not in detail how it happened also it even misses basic equations like E=Mc^2. so I would stick to science.
  • Show where in the bible the following was predicted or mentioned. Please give detailed, referenced sources showing how this was all predicted in detail and not just as vague abstractions: Quantum Theory The Law of Universal Gravitation Genetics, including the specific chemical constituents of DNA Computer Science Neuroscience, including a detailed description of the central nervous system The Periodic Table Of Elements Following this, using The Bible answer: An object is dropped from a height of 20 metres above ground level. Calculate the time it will take to hit the ground. Calculate the force required to accelerate an object of mass 20kg by 20 metres per second^2 Calculate the kinetic energy of an object of mass 10kg moving with velocity 10 m/s. Finally please use the bible to predict a future scientific discovery in detail which we can verify against the future discovery. Please define your understanding of theory and how this applies to theories such as gravity (General Relativity). Finally prove Genesis is true in a manner consistent with generally accepted scientific method. EIDT: I should add, if you wish to believe in Genesis in a literal sense then by all means do so that is your prerogative. Many Christians (and other theists) are able to reconcile the bible with scientific discoveries which is again the individual's choice. The reason I ask the above is that there is a specific claim being made that requires attention. I have no problem with people believing in religion as a private matter but I do take issue with the repeated attacks upon scientific endeavour which has given us as a species so much, both as a purely intellectual pursuit and as a method for improving the lives of countless people. Again believe what you want, I couldn't care less but if you make challenges such as this be prepared to defend them.
  • Are you serious.
  • This guy is taking a beat down.
  • The Bible also held a geocentirc view of the Universe and denounced the Heliocentirc theory of the Solar System as heresy. Look at how Pope Innocent set back the mental health industry; treating the mentally ill as ANIMALS to be tortured and experimented on. Why are YOU so eager to believe in Creationism? Oh, and what happened to Adam's FIRST wife?
  • Crab people in this world are never ready to hear the truth. It makes them uncomfortuble and they never like to hear it because the knowlege of HIS love is something powerful that will force them to change there lives. Its kind of like why gay people dont go to church. They are scared to hear that they are living a life that is abominable to god.
  • The Bible hasn't predicted anything, where did you get that steaming load? :-) Where in the Bible is Helium predicted or extreme thermophile life? But the rest of you statement is your answer. Intelligent people don't simply declare something to be truth. They find evidence and when there is enough to show a direction with high confidence they call it a theory.
  • This is better than the movies. I don't know, tell me more about it.
  • This question can best be categorised as "idiotic".
  • Can you please point out this prediction of all scientific discovery?
  • I've been looking through the holy Babble but I can't seem to find anything about the linkage of a microsatellite in the promoter region of the gene BDNF and schizophrenia. Guess Jesus dropped the ball on that one!
  • If the bible has predicted all scientific discovery I'd like to hear some examples, and some predictions of scientific discoveries are yet to come.
  • ALL BIBLES ARE ONLY LIES MADE UP THROUGHT THE CENTURIES BY PRIESTS THAT RE WROTE EACH.
  • It is amazing to me how people who are so bent on proof and evidence refuse to use such things when arguing against the Bible. Conversations degrade to sarcasm, rudeness, and an obvious lack of adequate proof to back up their claims, which are often as absurd or more absurd than those made by the Bible. No, the Bible did not predict "all" scientific discovery. Does that mean that you should ignore the actual question and attack the wording of the question itself? There is no evidence to disprove a claim made in the Bible. There are also many holes in the theory of evolution that give much reason to doubt its scientific accuracy. Where are the missing links that relate apes to humans, for example? This is not the crux of the matter, however. I am stupefied by how ignorant people can become when debating science as it relates to the Bible or as it goes against the Bible, as you may claim. Any absurd scientific claim will be taken with an open mind; however, one question that relates to the Bible is greeted with an angry mob. It also amazes me at how ignorant some Christians come across when they make bold claims about their faith, no matter how good their intentions are, but because of misinformation or lack of research, they have no response to criticism and, therefore, appear incompetent. They too engage in this mindless debate and become sarcastic, unloving, and ultimately, ineffective. It saddens me to see this kind of uncivilized debate, and I pray that everyone involved comes to truly understand the great love of Christ and begin to share it with those with whom they come into contact, both with similar and contrasting opinions.
  • Where are these in the Bible? Book, chapter and verse please. Elliptical motion of the planets? The gravitationmal force between any two objects is proportional to the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance between them? Existence of carbon dioxide? Existence of oxygen? How combustion works? Proportionality between electrical current and potential difference? Human animal and plant bodies are made up of cells? Germ theory of disease? Electromagnetic spectrum? All discovered before 1890.
