If even the splitting of mammalian germ cells is not certain… maybe the 21st century would be better suited to questions in science than answers. It’s easier to get good answers when we have enough knowledge to get the questions right.
Intelligent Design
When science enslaves instead of liberating
Many of us try to stay well clear of the COVID crazy but this rabbi certainly speaks for many when he dares to question a bit of the crazy, shouting out a warning about “science”
Vague words in science: Vague or plague?
The worst part of witch hunts in science is that they so often involve controversies over words without precise definitions,
At The Stream: Peer reviewed study of a miracle
Strobel goes on to talk about other apparently confirmed cases.
Ravi Zacharias (1946–2020)
The late Ravi Zacharias’s wildly popular encounter with an atheist scientist.
Michael Egnor: Materialism is easily falsifiable by science
Egnor: Cosmological singularities, such as black holes and the singularity from which our universe arose, are wholly supernatural. That is, they are undefined in any materialist/naturalist framework.
Why guys are fathers and gorillas aren’t: The real story
If one is not an evolutionary psychologist, the answer is obvious.
At Forbes: Is there now evidence for a parallel universe?
Some scientists are claiming so, based on an odd finding from Antarctica. Ethan Siegel isn’t isn’t taking the bait.
Galileo doesn’t deserve to be the victim of zombie history
But it’s really all that a wornout establishment can provide.
Are there really researchers out there who spend 20% of their time refuting ID?
Look, it’s true that the universe shows evidence of intelligent design but nobody is trying to interfere with those researchers just plodding about their job. They’re freaking themselves out to no purpose.
Stanford: Cosmic rays helped create chirality in early life. Rob Sheldon responds
Sheldon: Sabine Hossenfelder has said that particle physicists are “lost in math,” > trained to play with “beautiful” equations rather than actual physics. Here we have a similar example in astrophysics. Roger makes one unsupported assumption after another, leading to an effect so small as to “need amplification.”
AI replacing humans is consistent with Dawkins’s naturalist philosophy
Which is where the wheels come off.
Materialist Fideism Redux
There is no evidence – none whatsoever – that the genetic code arose through blind unguided natural processes. The genetic code instantiates a semiotic process in matter. On the basis of countless trillions of instances of experience, where the provenance of an instantiation of a semiotic process in matter has been actually observed, it has Read More…
New study shows high oxygen levels 2 billion years ago; Rob Sheldon offers some thoughts
Perhaps its only in imagination that things can just randomly swish into existence and grow very complex, given enough time. The thing is, there isn’t enough time.
At Forbes: The Universe is not purely mathematical
Maybe a universe that was completely explainable and provable couldn’t exist.
