    It is just useless to say "God did it." when it comes to the existence of the universe and life.

    Many Christians say that, for a lack of a better word, the nature of God is unknowable. That we cannot know how God created everything. I will concede some say that they can get to know some about God's personality through forming a relationship with God and through the Bible as it is claimed to be his word. Though these claims are not testable, nor relevant to what I am going to bring up.

    That leads into words from Issac Asimov who can bring up my point far better than I can.

    "Indeed, many supernatural explanations are rejected not because they are supernatural but because they cannot or do not lead anywhere. It is possible to come up with any number of possible explanations for anything - lost socks could be caused by extradimensional vortices which our observations prevent from forming; hiccups could be caused by evil spirits inside us trying to escape; stock market fluctuations could be caused by the secret manipulations of powerful extraterrestrials. Scientists reject such claims on the grounds of parsimony. All of these claims are possible, but they require adding complicated entities which there is no adequate evidence for. To make matters worse, the nature of those entities effectively prevents investigation of them, and the impossibility of investigation prevents us from learning anything new about them. We cannot conclude that any of these explanations are wrong. But from a scientific standpoint, they are worse than wrong; they are useless."

    If a claim is not testable, it is useless.

    Science can test some claims made based on some interpretations of Bible scriptures. Noah's flood being a literal global flood for example. Science can search for evidence to support or falsify a global flood. Geology and paleontology have discovered a multitude of evidence falsifying a global flood.

    Young Earth Creationist interpretations of the universe being less than 10,000 years old is another. Physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy, geology, pretty much all lines of science have found evidence falsifying that belief.

    Science doesn't look to disprove God. It has been resoundingly successful falsifying claims made by man about the universe around us that involve their own beliefs about God's activities.

    Noah's flood exposes the weakness, the Achilles Heel of the False Theory of Evolution. Some Godless Evols have taken the Truth of Micro Evolution or changes within His kinds, and changed it into the unsupported, speculative LIE that God used evolution to Create. Not so, and God's Holy Word refutes such an ignorant idea.

    Noah's Flood shows that Noah and his family came into our 2nd Heaven, from the 1st Heaven, the world of Adam, which was totally "dissolved" in the Flood. This happened some 10k years ago and Human civilization, on this Planet, can be traced to Noah's arrival in the mountains of Ararat, in Northern Mesopotamia, the Cradle of Human Civilization.

    Without the Flood, we might be stuck with the stupid idea that we evolved from other animals, but the Flood shows that Humanity on our Earth, came from another world. Humans were made long BEFORE any other living creature. Genesis 2:4-7 That's God's Truth, which agrees in EVERY way with EVERY discovery of TRUE Science and History.

    One thing God's Truth DISAGREES with is the False ToE, which is nothing but a Lie of Godless men who are afraid to be righteously judged for their evil deeds, so they made up an incomplete, untrue, False assumption, and called it the ToE. They did NOT consider God's Truth when they made fools of themselves with their unsupportable Theory, and now it's time for their Lies to be exposed.

    Humans did NOT evolve from Apes and there is NO evidence which can stand when measured against God's Truth. Want to try to support the man-made, error filled, Theory of Evolution? I don't believe ANY of you can?

    Replace "God did it" with "Millions of years did it" and you have evolution. Evolution is as mythical as Genesis. I choose to believe the "God did it" myth over the "Millions of years did it" myth.

    You guys use the word "science" as if it some impartial judge to the findings of the so called scientists. The truth is that "science" is only as impartial a the scientist.
