The creation of the world was a miracle and cannot be explained by scientist. Supernatural forces God contains can explain the act of creation. God can create and breathe life and be the designer of our souls. In the bible there is commentary and scriptures below provide proof that God created the universe. Key Bible verses such as: Hebrews 11:3, John 1:3, Romans 1:20, and Genesis 2:7, and.
He sees the world as the be all and end all, there is no other world in which to escape to. No heaven or hell to hold him accountable for his actions on Earth, giving him a freedom Christians do not have. The teachings of Christ implore we humans to be charitable, to do un to others as you would have them do unto you. Nietzsche Übermensch sees charity as an unproductive activity, not providing any enhancement to his aims, and as such, not worth doing. Having said the Übermensch is solitary and aloof, this also brings into question human nature.
Dewey felt that only scientific method could reliably increase human good. With being said we can assume that Dewey did not believe in God or Jesus Christ. Because Dewey’s views are the way they are it would be easy to point out the differences in his Ideas and those of Jesus Christ. Dewey believed that schooling should be humanistic instead of Christian. Of the idea of God, Dewey said, "it denotes the unity of all ideal ends arousing us to desire and actions.” Jesus Christ had a different belief when it came to the existence of God and the increase of “human good”.
The Question of Identity – Is there any difference in me and an animal? Naturalists believe that man is just a more sophisticated animal while Pantheists believe all life is sacred. The real truth comes from Theism. Theists believe God is infinite and man is God’s special creation. Scripture confirms this truth in Psalm 8:5 and Genesis 2:15.
“EXPLAIN WHAT IS MEANT BY ‘GOD IS DEAD’ AND ‘THERE IS NO GOD’” The statement “God is dead” and “There is no God” can be interpreted in many different ways. The term God is dead comes from the idea of a man called Freidrich Nietzche who put forward this, however the statement could also be interpreted from an atheist view that there is no God at all. These two statements differ in meaning as the term God is dead implies there is no need for God anymore and he is no longer, but this is suggesting that there once was a God which differs to the atheist based statement that there is no God completely. Freidrich Neitzche began from the assumption that there is no God, despite his religious background he brought about the theory “God is dead”. He believed that life is meaningless and that we have no souls, so we should therefore grasp everything that the world has to offer whilst we can as there is no chance of an afterlife in his perspective.
Many cultures believed that gods or goddesses created life. For example within the Christian religious tradition, it is believed that organisms were created by an almighty god. Due to the lack of scientific material, scientists are unable to test this theory of life, leading them to seek answers from a naturalist explanation. Up until the mid- nineteenth century, naturalists held onto the idea of spontaneous generation. This theory suggested that life was created out of nothing.
Very few people today maintain such a belief. Lastly, Modern Geocentrism is the belief that God recently created a spherical world, and placed it in the center of the universe. The Sun, planets and everything else in the universe revolve around it. All scientific claims about the age of the Earth are lies. They also believe that evolution does not occur.
o Myth 1: God created the world because there was nothing, no one and it was dark, so God created the world full of light, stars, land, animals and humans. No one knows the reason that God created the world. o Myth 2: There was no motivation to the Big Bang because it was nothing more than a unexplained random occurrence. • How did humankind come into being? o Myth 1: God first made a man named Adam, then he took one of Adams ribs are created a woman named Eve.
There are also no references to the cause of God in any religious books. The bible defines god as ‘eternal and uncreated’ with no explanation. A strength for the cosmological argument is that it is highly logical and exists all around us; babies have a cause; a blooming flower has a cause; The X Factor has a cause and so does a hot meal. Apart from God we are able to find the cause for everything around us. Referring to one of the four Omni’s; omnipotent which means all power, if God is all powerful then maybe he does not need a cause, he just came to exist.
I strongly disagree with any notion that natural selection, or evolution shapes us in any way because the Bible tells us that “All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made” in John 1:3. Therefore, the natural selection and evolution theories do not hold up in light of God’s Word. While I believe that our personality, intelligence, athleticism, etc. may be partially inherited from our parents, it appears that they are mostly influenced by our environment. The Bible warns us that our influences can change our behaviors (see 1 Corinthians 15:33).
