Faith versus Fact...

Interestingly I note that humanists are adamant that the rationalism provides absolute proof that their is no God and that evolution is the truth. I fail to see how this could be the case when mankind is unable to leave the Earth and incapable of time travel.

Scientists are able to observe and experiment with fossil samples and to reconstruct the skeletons of perished ancient animals. They can postulate what would seem to be a rational explanation for the existence of various species but really are stretching to explain how life came to be or has developed.

The greatest stumbling block to evolution is the theory that it is only possible given a huge span of time and the reason that it is a stumbling block is that man has only been a part of the puzzle for a comparatively short time. We have only had the technology to enable us to begin to research evolution for less than three hundred years. So how can we say with any certainty that evolution is the only theory that accurately explains the rise of life over billions of years.

Even those who are not overly religious are reaching for other explanations. Perhaps alien seed ships came through and sowed life on Earth and millions of other planets or maybe ancient aliens had a hand in the formation of early human development and societies here on Earth.

Life is complex and increasing in complexity and any fool can see that it would have taken a being or beings of considerable intelligence and skill to map it out and to initiate the whole process of life and the living world. Regardless of what or who these beings were and what they were called.

 In reality intelligent design is a better fit for the processes that run our universe and the evidence that we have only to look up to see. Personally I have faith that the God of the Hebrews is the one true God = Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
