Science in the Dark


Monday I listened to a late night radio talk show, Coast to Coast with Art Bell, which had as its guest a cosmologist. The cosmologist stated that the universe came from a singularity (from a single point); thus refraining from saying that it (the universe) came from nothing. He also stated that there is not enough mass observable in the stars to cause them to follow the course in the sky that they were currently in. Therefore, it is believed there is dark matter which cannot be seen acting on what is seen. Any notion of God is rejected.

Scripture says that the heavens declare the glory of God. While the scientists study the sky, stars and cosmos, it is declaring to them the glory of God. It says God created us (the sky, stars and cosmos) and set us in synchronous orbits. The evidence shows something came from nothing yet those in cosmology are loath (resistant and unwilling) to reveal it. Therefore, they lie to themselves and the public.

Scripture says that all things are upheld by the power of the word of Jesus Christ. It is very possible that there is no dark matter. What is being observed is the power of God’s word holding everything in place.

Daniel, the Old Testament prophet, writes that knowledge will increase in the last days, but men will not discern the truth. The psalmist writes “that the fool has said in his heart that there is no God.” It is sad to say, but this is the state of official science today. Many scientists are fools.

In the New Testament book of Hebrews we read that it is impossible to understand creation without faith. Many scientists lack faith making them incapable of correctly understanding creation. It was the correct understanding of theology that led man out of the Dark Ages. Today lack of theology is leading science back into the darkness of bygone Dark Ages.
