[net.religion.christian] Miracles and science

V6M@PSUVM.BITNET (02/20/85)

It wasn't obvious in my posting that when I said science describes all
things natural completely. I ASSUMED (rub it in Rich) that we all understood
that science was an incomplete body...BUT it was the best explanation of
things natural at a given time.
N.B. that the Christian scientist seeks God through science and the
accumulation of knowledge.

Agreed if an event is not explained today IT MAY BE explained later.
But this is allowed for in the pronouncement of miracles.

By definition an act of faith IS REQUIRED in the first place as to the
existence of God. ( I can hear it coming now   :-)  )

We can give physical and metaphysical arguments as to the reasonabllness of
believing but unless God identifies Himself to each individual either privately
or through a worldwide "proclamation" of some sort and removes ALL
possible physical objections then faith is necessary.

I guess I just answered my question to Rich.
