Re: Maybe you should re-think your misconceptions

Quite the difference between taking leaps of faith that defy all logic and leaps of faith regarding forces and mysteries we don't currently understand based on our very limited scientific knowledge.  I personally have a real problem with people who refuse to accept anything having any validity if it has not bee proven and validated scientifically - in great part because such thinking is far too prevalent in mainstream medical "science".  Such thinking has been used to try to discredit meridians, healing energy, homeopathy, accupuncture, aromatherapy and more (though aromatherapy has recently been validated conclusively scientifically, as just one example of where the absurd belief that todays's science has all the answers was wrong).

Lack of evidence is not evidence of lack, and accepted science is often overturned - and thank goodness it is.  Otherwise we would still believe that the world was flat and the sun and rest of the universe revolved around the earth, or that the atom was the smallest particle in nature.  Now, I am certainly not saying that you are one of those who are so staid that they refuse to accept even the possibility of some of what might be called the supernatural today actually being valid despite the lack of current scientific proof.  But I will say that people with such an inflexible attitude rank no better in my mind than those who refuse to believe anything other than that what is written (and has been re-written, edited and changed many times - most often with a definite agenda on the part of the revisionists, translators and/or editors) in an ancient book is absolutely inerrant in every single word and sentence.

I don't think the Bible is inerrant and neither do I think today's science is anywhere near to inerrant.
