Einstein:
I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it. (Albert Einstein, 1954)

Not a good start.
And the point of posting this list would be...?

The reason is because there is no scientific alternative to a Creator - it is a most scientific premise.

Shocked the list does not include Isaac Newton.

Not so. Einstein accepted a Creator premise and of Monotheism, albiet in his own clinical scientific way and without being religious - but the later was again altered in his last years.

 

Link please.
Especially bearing in mind that that quote is from one year before he died.
Not much time left after that for his "last years".

 

Bull.

 

There are plenty of religious scientists, but that doesn't mean that religion is scientific in nature, nor does it mean that the scientists' faith was, in any way, predicated on their scientific understanding of the world.

 

The term religion is new. Christianity and Islam are not original belief systems. Monotheism and good laws are scientific, emperical premises. I've yet to see a Hebrew law or stat which is NOT scientific. Usually, all can be proposed is some FX miracles - but nothing outside these.

 

False. As are many of of your posts.

That's because you apparently have little understanding of what actually constitutes science, or reality.

 

You are right about Isaac Newton, in fact he spent more time trying to find a code in the bible than he did on pure scientific thought

 

If you ask for proof, does it mean you researched at found none?

 

Nope, it means I'm asking YOU to substantiate your statement.
And I see that not only do you include the quote that I gave, but also that none of them do actually substantiate your view, while others directly contradict you.
How strange.
Another lie you've been caught in.

 

THE FIRST SCIENTIFIC EQUATION:

The appropriate opening verse which says there was a BEGINNING of the Galaxies and the Earth [the universe]. Feel free to put up a pre-dating similar equation of a finite universe. Now if you agree or not the universe is finite does not impact: it remains a scientific premise.

If you study the text, you will also find that Evolution comes from Genesis [the first record of life form groupings and their mode of procession]. Also the first seperation of Medicine [a scientific faculty] from the occult as well in the same book [the ID and treatment of malignancies and the effects of contagious and infectcious deseases].

 

Trolling again.
A statement does NOT constitute a scientific equation. You have been told this.

It has also been pointed out to you previously that evolution is not in genesis.

Reported.

 

Not believing in a personal Creator does not negate the belief in a Creator. Read again what he says on atheists - those who hold there is no creator. Note also at all times Einstein believes in Monotheism - one Creator.

 

Also false. If anything Einstein was a pantheist. The universe itself was "god" as far as he was concerned.
Read what he says about atheists?
Yet YOU fail to see what is also said about theists in the same sentence.
The bigotry of the nonbeliever is for me nearly as funny as the bigotry of the believer.
I.e. believers are FUNNIER than non-believers.

Depends what the statement is saying. The applicable factor is whether it is fully aligned with what you call an equation. The said verse is fully vindicated by the prevailing scientific equation - and more, being dispensed in a mode understandable by all generations of man - itself a feat. The terms science and equation are new.

Pointed out? All factors of evolution comes from Genesis, with no addition by Darwin. This includes:

LIFE FORM GROUPS. [First recorded in Genesis].

REPRODUCTION: THAT THE OFFSPRING FOLLOWS THE PROGRAM INHERITED BY THE HOST SEED - AND ABLE TO PASS ON THE SAME PROGRAM. [Try showing this with the absence of the host or its seed!]


SPECIATION: THAT A SPECIES [KIND] FOLLOWS ITS OWN KIND. [Of note this does not contest Darwin's premise all life originated from one source, but only says that once a species emerges, it will then follow its own kind. Here, genesis does not say an animal could not have originally come from a water based life - only that a Zebra will follow on to be a Zebra].

Please point out again what ToE says which contradicts the precedent Genesis, or adds anything to it? Or where do you think got his notions from - its not recorded anywhere else outside Genesis?

 

Reported.
More trolling.
And a repeated lie.

 

Are you reading?

Knowing God's Thoughts
I want to know how God created this world. I'm not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.

 

Yes, go and complain - it shows you lost. You have no other responsa? You must either negate a post with counters - which you have never done - or accept:

CHECK MATE.

Sorry that your favorite word EQUATION is not seen in Genesis - that maybe because it is an authentic, ancient document before that word was coined. But there is no confusion, accept when one is confused by deceptively simple sounding texts - or worse.
