@@manamanathegreat4986 well, a quick google search could have proven your definition wrong, but i guess you never bothered. scientism is a (false) belief that science can explain everything, or an emotional pseudo-worship of science. scientism is sometimes found in real scientists, but usually it's found in people who consume science without directly participating or understanding the history and philosophy of what they are consuming. scientism has been disproven since the 1800s, by thinkers like kant, nietzsche, and goedel. unfortunately, there is a lot of money in pushing science to midwits to make them feel intellectually superior, so people like sam harris and stephen pinker can still do their little speaking tours.

Why do you say that? I absolutely have honestly evaluated Myer's arguments and evidence. They just don't hold up. We could go from point to point but for me the biggest objection I have is simply that the central premise of Intelligent Design is flawed. Designers don't have complexity as a design goal. An intelligent designer wouldn't have billions of lines of computer code doing nothing or causing "bugs", that's just bad design. We have SO many examples of bad design in biology, but I'll stick to DNA as Myer loves talking about DNA. If DNA is computer code that was designed, it would be analogous to Windows 11 containing every single line of code for every single distribution and version of Windows that's ever been written. Including every patch, update, and hotfix. All included into the Windows 11 installer, even though only a tiny portion of that code is actually necessary to run Windows 11. I honestly ask you, what designer does that? Nobody. Nobody does that for obvious reasons. Because a hallmark of design is simplicity and efficiency. NOT complexity. This is where Myer blows it and shows his hand, because we all know what his agenda really is.

There is a crises in humans when they start to separate from the wholesomeness and oneness with the universe God and Creation. Requiring principle, the ability to learn principle and the bespeaking as explanation from a nature and reason that God and Creation satisfy all the quests and searching a person may have. We are surrounded by how wondrous life is and there's no route taking us on a path to divorce from this. Where we seem to find a quandary is in emotion and logic to satisfy our own opinionated view of the world.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." This is a cut flower statement. It requires connection to a Creator for validation. (Franklin would have used the word "men" in the sense of humanity). If everyone is created by a common Father, we are all brothers and sisters, loved equally. In a family one child may have Downs Syndrome while another may be a billionaire. The power differential is immaterial to a Being who can speak a Universe into existence. He loves all his children not for their capacities, but because they carry His image.. Hence, Liberty, Equality and Fraternity. Substitute random materialism and voila, all gone - down to the world of the Marquis deSade - What IS is right. Nature red in tooth and claw. Truth is replaced by power, liberty is replaced by despotism, science and technology are replaced by abject servility. ie. Woke Postmodern Machiavellianism.

Christianity is based on a logical argument founded in historical events, primarily the atoning suffering, death and resurrection of Christ, attested to by sincere witnesses, many of whom died because of their witness. Part of their testimony is that Christ is literally Jehovah, the Creator and continuing Lord of Nature, walking on the sea, calming storms, producing food from nothing, and healing the wounds of mortal life. Evil men killed him, but he defeated them, not just for himself, but for all mankind.

The testimony of Peter, Paul and the other apostles of Jesus is that the real man Jesus of Nazareth is the real Son of God who was witnessed to die and return to life as a divine immortal but embodied being. They did not offer a philosophical argument, they were witnesses of a tremendous REALITY, the physical and all powerful God who has dominion over the elements of Nature. It was a real event, just as scientists witness real but transitory events such as the merging of two neutron stars that was seen in 2017 by gravitational wave, gamma ray, x-ray, visible, infrared and radio telescopes on earth and in space. Both categories of events are essentially the same, and both equally true.

@@hiker-uy1bi Let's skip calling things ridiculous and idiotic, okay? On the merits, the current secular scientific worldview states they've established that everything about the Universe started at the Big Bang, or in the quantum theory arena, at a singularity. That means that every aspect of the Universe including those you refer to, had a beginning. If you disagree, you're free to take it up with those scientists and theorists. To claim these two features are "necessary physical features of reality" does not change whether they had a beginning or not. Your theoretical commitment, as you stated, is to features of the Universe having existed for infinite time. That's real tough to prove -- although you may feel comfortable saying the words. You end up having now to explain the origins of things that are of infinite duration -- unless you just assume them without proof. If you assume them without proof, then you have to explain why they don't end at any given instant -- or why they are not intermittent, or why they don't change once in a while. And, as much as you'd like to jettison the concept of a "mind," you have to explain how those two eternal characteristics -- apparently having no ability to imagine a purpose, form a plan, carry out engineering, and deploy foresight in all these stages -- managed to invent the "mind" presumably you yourself claim to be exercising. I don't sense your "natural entities" explanation got easier, but only harder to accomplish.
