Ice Age Civilization — Post by Michael J. Findley

Secularism teaches a very long, slow progress for humans. They believe that the discovery of fire, the wheel, and how to domesticate animals took millennia. With much trial and error, one culture very slowly evolved into another. The evidence, however, shows a very rapid, sudden, even explosive growth of population, civilization, and advanced technology from … Continue reading Ice Age Civilization — Post by Michael J.

Who Has Abandoned the Scientific Method? — Post by Michael J. Findley

Certain people use misdirection when discussing our beliefs and deliberately misstate what we believe. We therefore want to make clear our position on the authority of the Scriptures as God’s Word and how we approach this subject. Before Isaac Newton, there was no scientific method. He used the theology of the Bible and the orderliness … Continue reading Who Has Abandoned the Scientific Method? — Post by Michael J. Findley

A Not So Simple Look At Relativity — Post by Michael J. Findley

The importance of the theory of relativity is the religious conclusions rammed down our throats by religious bigots. This strong language is necessary to understand the unyielding priesthood these men have erected. These people have convinced themselves and many others that they are open-minded, kind and gentle. In their world, however, disagreements are only tolerated … Continue reading A Not So Simple Look At Relativity — Post by Michael J. Findley

I Am Still Figuring Out Twitter — Post by Mary C. Findley

My latest Twittersperiment has several sub-experiments running, but I’ll share what’s going on right now. 1. Permalinks. I was introduced to this method of retweeting recently. Retweets are supposed to be better than tweets for sharing other people’s information.

The Death of Science Part 5 — The Double Standard

Secular Humanism boldly proclaims that the events recorded in the Bible are not historic. But using those same standards, neither were Plato, Socrates, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, Sun Tzu or most historic people or events. The oldest surviving manuscript of Plato’s documents dates to 895 AD. The Codex Oxoniensis Clarkianus 39 was copied more … Continue reading The Death of Science Part 5 — The Double Standard

The Death of Science Part 3: Reality Requires Religion

Almost every American colony had some form of establishment of religion. This was because their religion consisted of proven and necessary facts of existence. Religion was reliable, logical and rational to them. The modern established religion of Secular Humanism teaches that it is the only scientifically-based belief system in existence. It claims that all other … Continue reading The Death of Science Part 3: Reality Requires Religion

Radiometric Dating Doesn’t Mean “Dating” — Michael J. Findley

If someone collects a sample, brings it to a laboratory for radiometric testing and gets scientific results, the answer is a ratio of parent isotope to daughter isotope. That is it, plain and simple.
