Atheistic Claim: The claim that “God did it” is simply asserted as truth without any evidence to back it up. “God is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance.” Answer: Atheists run into the same, but worse problems. They run into the laws of logic and their worldview cannot justify or explain them, whereas an all-powerful God is a valid and reasonable explanation. See recent posts from Tuesdays for more clarification on this...

Atheistic Claim: The claim that “God did it” is simply asserted as truth without any evidence to back it up. Answer: Here is a quote from the father of physics, Sir Isaac Newton, “Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the Earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance…This most beautiful system of the sun, planets, and comets could only proceed from the counsel...

Atheistic Claim: “The laws of logic are uncreated and…are necessary…Things that are necessary do not require an explanation of their existence.” Answer: Saying, in essence, “they just exist” is not a cause or justification. Atheists often object when we say God exists first. A supernatural, personal creator is actually a reasonable cause for everything else. The atheistic perspective is still unjustified in this. Mike, Explaining Logic, September...

Answer: “If the laws of logic are just electro-chemical connections in the brain, then they would differ somewhat from person to person because everyone has different connections in their brain,” and thus they would be an arbitrary standard, not universal. “Rational debate would be impossible.” Jason Lisle, Atheism: An Irrational Worldview, October 10, 2007, Answers in Genesis,...

Notice from the pictures below that everyone…even the atheist and even the agnostic live by faith. You have to have faith that when you turn the keys to your car that everything will work correctly and that it will start…although some people need more faith in that. Science is simply a method of gaining more knowledge through observation and experimentation. So everyone has faith and anyone can do science as I could also add to the picture. These are all ultimately...

Many people have a misunderstanding of what faith is. I have heard faith defined as: believing in something with no evidence for it. I would call that blind faith, but faith – even faith in God – does not have to be blind. God is not opposed to evidence and I don’t believe that he is calling us to blind faith. In fact, as you see from the picture below, God have given multiple examples of evidence (and more) proclaiming the Truth of Himself and of His Word!...

You might say that you would just have to stack up a lot of evidence and that scientific evidence would prove your conclusion. But in every case, you still have to have faith in the lab equipment working correctly and even that the laws of nature will continue to be constant as we would expect (for example, that gravity would not all of the sudden turn off – which is possible, because we can’t say that that is impossible). You may be able to get 99.9% sure of...

Since Adam and Eve were not born of a woman, it is possible that they may not have had belly buttons since they didn’t need an umbilical cord connecting them to a mother. This likely was yet another reminder and evidence to the people living in that day of the fact that God specially created Adam and Eve. Think of it, young children for hundreds of years could have gone to visit great-great-great Grandpa Adam and great-great-great Grandma Eve to ask “Can we see your...

Answering Tuesday’s question: Which came first, the Chicken or the Egg? We see in Gen 2 that Adam was created with enough intelligence (and maturity) to name the animals, so he was probably older than a child. We also see that God created the trees with fruit and seed in them which means that these are mature plants – since we know it may take years for some plants or trees to be old enough to have food. So we can probably say God created the mature chicken first (possibly...
