Brycen posed the question, Will some people’s inability to accept scientific data over religious doctrines be there downfall? I believe that the answer is no. My reasons, however, might not be what you expect.
I am not a religious person. I believe 100% in the scientific theory of creation. I also believe that religious parties should accept the theory as true, despite what the Bible says. The simple truth of the matter is the Bible was written in a time when they had no way of knowing what we do now about the creation of the universe. If they did have a way of knowing, maybe the Bible would have been written differently.
That being said, I do not believe that those who refuse to accept the scientific theory and cling to their religious beliefs will have a “downfall,” as Brycen calls it. What exactly are they falling down from? I can honestly say that learning about the Big Bang Theory and accepting it as truth had absolutely no effect on my life, and I don’t think my life would be any different at all if I had not done so.
The only thing that religious people are doing is having different thoughts. Those thoughts are not going to negatively affect their lives. Why would they? Either way, they were born, they’re living their lives, and they’re going to die.
My question in response is, Do you believe there is room for a type of God-like creator in the scientific theory of evolution? After all, something had to have caused the thing that caused the Big Bang.
