Ptolemy & Evolution |
If you have not read Stories Versus Truth, you may want to read that before reading this.
Ptolemy's Geocentric System of the Universe and EvolutionThe scientist Ptolemy's geocentric system of the universe was the result of making scientific observations and offering scientific theories to explain those observations. That is, Ptolemy made up stories that were consistent with what could be observed.
Centuries later, scientists had fully accepted Ptolemy's stories as science, never realizing that his stories were just stories. Ptolemy's geocentric model, like those of his predecessors, was geocentric and was, in essence, universally accepted. The scientists drew in the church at that time, because a renegade scientist, Galileo, had dared to propose a competing theory that said that Earth was not the center of the universe. Galileo's theory didn't require the complexity of motion or the imaginary substance called "aether," that moved the stars, planets, and sun around.Unfortunately, the church bought into the stories of Ptolemy.Of course they had to.It was science, was it not?And the church muddied its name in the process.
The scientists led the church down the path.The scientists watched the church muddy itself with this false science.Then, the scientists avoid taking any blame.Historians don't blame the scientists.The church is made to look foolish, which it was in this case.The church is not to sit in the counsel of the ungodly.It is very foolish to sit in the counsel of the ungodly.
A theologian named Charles Darwin picked up a number of centuries-old theories and wrote a book called "The Origin of Species: By Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life."The Secular Humanist religion picked up on this idea as did Adolph Hitler.It became a basic starting point for racial discrimination.The Evolution conjecture / fabrication, like the geocentric model of the universe, requires many complexities and some sort of a strange unobservable dark matter (like the aether) that makes all of this work.The Darwinists have many areas in which they just can't find a naturalistic conjecture to line up with their observations no matter how hard they try.In fact, the more they observe, the more problems they have.The Creation model has no such conflicts.
Darwinists insist that there are problems with the Creation model.They try to inject some of the Evolution conjecture's axioms into the Creation model and then point out that the Creation model doesn't make sense.Of course, the Creation model must use the Creation model's axioms, not the molecules-to-man evolution conjecture's axioms.The Creation model has Almighty God as Designer and Creator, so it is incompatible with the molecules-to-man evolution conjecture's axioms of Naturalism and Materialism.The Creation model has a worldwide flood, so it is incompatible with the molecules-to-man evolution conjecture's axiom of Uniformitarianism.The Creation model has a timeline of thousands of years, so it is incompatible with the molecules-to-man evolution conjecture's concept of billions of years.There is nothing in observable science that causes a problem for the Creation model, but theoretical science's stories are often incompatible with the Creation model.
A large percentage of denominations and church-like groups are again sitting in the counsel of the ungodly.They are trying to inject Evolutionism into their theology.They are repeating the mistake of the church that accepted Ptolemy's stories as if it had been fact. ![]()
