Opus 2017-131: Healthy Insights: Metabolism, part 5 of 5, The Divine Liver

I am a creationist, not an evolutionist.  I believe that God created my liver.  I don’t believe that it evolved from an amoeba.  What is the difference?  God knew that someday we would be faced with all kinds of pollution in our food.  He designed our liver to deal with it.  An evolutionist believes that the liver evolved based on conditions it encountered.  Thus the liver needs to be protected by our infinite wisdom and the wisdom of diet gurus. 

Does that mean I reject science?  Absolutely not.  Good research using the scientific method is possible because there is a God of the Universe who is not fickle and capricious.  He said that water boils at 212̊ F.  That is good enough for kindergarten scientists.  Anyone who has really considered the laws of nature realizes that you need to add, “at sea level with pure water”.  There may be other qualifications.  In the universe of the evolutionist those “laws” could change at any time.  Remember, in evolution it is all up to chance.

As an example of dietary guru science let he give you a quote from another book.

“Only in the past twenty years or so has it been found that saccharine is unlikely to have any negative effects in humans even at the highest concentrations – but we still can’t shake the feeling that it just isn’t good for you.  Probably safe, but again, we’ll take a pass.” , p. 145

Notice the scientific method used here.  They “can’t shake the feeling that it just isn’t good for you”. 

I am willing to accept God’s “because I said so” to the diet guru’s “can’t shake the feeling” any day.  I have the same response to the global warming Chicken Little’s.
