Let me give you one of the most divisive statements ever made:
Genesis 1:1 (KJV) In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.The first three words begin the division. “In the beginning…”. You would think this would be obvious but the pagan version of scientists have been denying even this bit of the obvious. Science has been claiming there was no beginning ever since the Enlightenment became the dominant force in the West. Their mantra has been that the universe is infinite at both ends. In the early years when they were basing their theories on philosophy and personal necessity, that is understandable. But we know more today and the truth is still ignored.
So Christians have always had a bone to pick with the pagans. When you add the next word it gets even testier. “In the beginning God…”. Here is where punctuation might help. As the secular scientists began to look at the evidence they themselves were collecting it became clear that the universe was not eternal. So they would translate this, “In the beginning ?” They didn’t know and had nothing but cool science fiction themes to work with. Much of the science fiction writing I have read is trying to fill in the blank where the question mark goes. Imagination is a wonderful thing to base a novel on but is not a foundation for reality and real science.
Christians of course would use different punctuation. We would switch the question mark for an exclamation point. “In the beginning !” This is a basic assumption that the early scientists had which allowed them to develop the scientific method and move deeper into discovering how things work from a single cell to a galaxy. If you can’t make that assumption then you can’t depend on your answers. Just picture how your day would go if the law of gravity decided to act on a part time basis,
Intellectuals like to cover it up but every field of study begins with assumptions that cannot be proven or are conditional. Does 1 + 1 equal 2? Not in computer binary language. Some things are taken on faith. It would help if they would stop denying that basic reality.
We know where it began and who began it. The rest we are still working on. Enjoy the adventure.
