Re: Reporter Suspended For Defending Evolution Comes Back, Gives Immediate Middle Fin
It all comes down to supernatural events to prove their assertions. Supernatural events don't happen.
Work with me here.
su·per·nat·u·ral
ˌso͞opərˈnaCH(ə)rəl/Submit
adjective
1.
(of a manifestation or event) attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature.
Now, let's pretend, in the time of our ancients, that a great chariot from the sky ascended from the heavens, with great fire. And from this chariot came two angels of God. They impregnated virgins and they gave births to the sons and daughters of God.
That's kind of hard to wrap one's head around, no? They had no scientific understanding to speak of. In fact, through the ages such knowledge of science, or the search thereof, would get you burnt at the stake. These, "chariots," these, "angels," were beyond the understanding of any known natural order. Therefore, GOD!
Now, flash forward. Year 2014. Nightly news reports, "Alien spacecraft makes contact with NASA and reveals human breeding experiment dating back to ancient ages."
People could understand that. We do breeding experiments as well. We manipulate genetics all the time. We too, have flying spacecrafts and are capable of visiting other worlds.
The "supernatural," is no longer "supernatural." As we can understand it in scientific terms and nothing is really unnatural about any of it, when you think about it.
