Do you believe in sience?

There has to be one single absolute truth though, would you not agree? There can not be more than one way that the universe began or how it was done, eventually there will be one universal truth just as there is a universal truth that gravity exists. What the "Christian" faith is, is one possible absolute truth....with time it will be either totally taken apart or completely proven ( according to the Bible, one day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord). To base ones entire existence on an ever changing explanation and infallibility because it is fallible....that really confuses me. For me personally; to believe in a solid foundation, never changing, faith based answer and explanation is more than enough. I believe every word of the Bible as historical text as much as one would an american history book. It works for me because i can see it, study it, learn it, live it, and hold it. And to my knowledge, none of the claims of the Bible have ever been proven as completely false. They have been found suspicious and debated yes, but no evidence has ever been given to say 100% " that is pure fiction and never happened...here is the proof...". To each his or her own though....

I agree with you, i would love a solid foundation to stand on. With that said, i'm not going to fabricate one just because i need it. Science understands that we dont have all the answers, may never have the answers and will always be seeking the answers.

Christianity claims to have all the answers, even though they have the extremely clever and manipulative disclaimer put in place called faith.

As the saying goes..... the dumbest person in the room is the one who thinks they know everything. Christianity closes the minds of many people when it tells them to stop seeking answers for the unexplainable and simply have faith. At one point in time, people thought the world was flat. Everything we knew up to that point, we couldnt prove otherwise. Someone kept seeking the answer and eventually found it. The answers we dont have today will eventually be found. I'm gonna side with the people who are still looking and not those who live their life based on a retranslated recollection of stories written by men.
