"To conclude, therefore, let no man out of a weak conceit of sobriety, or an ill-applied moderation, think or maintain, that a man can search too far or be too well studied in the book of God's word, or in the book of God's works; divinity or philosophy; but rather let men endeavor an endless progress or proficience in both." Sir Francis Bacon
Genesis 1:1
In the Beginning (Time), God created the heavens (Space) and the earth (Matter). Let there be light (Energy).
Then move on to verse 27 where God describes how he moved information to an image.
1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

And Lo, God looked upon the face of the world that he created and said, "Let there be MAGNETISM", and magnetism was formed.
I would thumbs down this thread if I could.

in a way you are correct , purpose and design does seem inherant in our universe... some aspects of science agree it looks like a put up job...tweak one setting of the universe here..another thier.. and no life could ever exist......
However if it was not as it is , we would not be here to ask such profound questions .. it can be no other way for us.. just because we are here and the requirments for life in the universe are strict ( to our understanding) does not mean these equirements where manipulated by some omnipotent being... it is the only way it can be for us to ask such questions..
Again replies from you that go round and round... i know what you meant by 'Word' , i did not think in a linguistic capacity only, i am open to the multitude of metaphors you are spouting...
You are a very articulate person and i truly feel pity that your talents are wasted in this area you are currently commited too.

What Evolutionists assume is that we are talking about something that happened in the distant past. Therefore, every time they see some form of real-time change, they shout "See, I told you, Evolution is proved".
The truth is that God IS creative. He's doing it right now, not just in the past.
In any case where Evolutionists point out what they call proof of Evolution, ask yourself how fast should that change have occurred? We know mutation rates. We know the percentage of mutations that fail/are fatal to the organism. Then look at the timeline of the change. It's always been too fast in my experience.
So perhaps, just perhaps, the mechanism that Evolution is supposed to happen through, is not actually able to account for the change. Hence, the forces of Natural Selection, Mutation and Genetic Drift as the mechanism of Evolution is inadequate to explain the changes. This then invalidates, and does not prove the theory of Evolution!
Think about it.
The force/s that evolve organisms to 'higher' forms over time seem to be both intelligent and directed.
Where are the proofs of devolution that nature should throw up more than 50% of the time? Have the Evolutionists forgotten the other side of the coin of randomness?
But with regard to the material world, we can at least go so far as this - we can perceive that events are brought about not by insulated interpositions of Divine power, exerted in each particular case, but by the establishment of general laws.

I have to agree with other posters here... all he's doing is saying "wow look how complex these biological systems are, they must have been designed consciously". It's the same argument the Mormons try to give me when ever they visit. Clearly he lacks a true understanding of how evolution works, and why the solutions designed by evolution are so far beyond our comprehension. Anyone who thinks these things can't be a result of evolution doesn't understand evolution at all.edit on 20-3-2012 by ChaoticOrder because: (no reason given)

You're making an argument from authority, the problem is that someone can come into this thread and put up 100 names, or more, that support Evolution, all of them credible scientists. It would make your ONE scientist seem pathetic by comparison.
Biological evolution is an undeniable fact, I fail to see how anyone with grade school level education, let alone a scientist, can reject the idea that allele frequency changes over time within a given population. That's all evolution is, genetic variation from one generation to the next. Even creationists admit that this form of evolution occurs, but they don't understand the only difference between the micro changes and macro changes is the number of generations that pass.edit on 20-3-2012 by Titen-Sxull because: (no reason given)
