Why is the Word of GOD eternal & unchanging but science changes its mind every 5 minutes?

The Word of GOD is unchanged since the days of Moses but science change theories every time a new study comes out (funded by govt money of course). First were evolved from fish made of adams then we are monkeys made of DNA. Which is it? Make up your minds scientists!

    So being eternally wrong is better than incorporating new information and improving as you learn more?

    Thanks, but I think I'll stick with the "right, and getting more right" method.

    The covenant remains in result that God has made with Israel. The animal sacrifices have been completed away with via Jesus Christ when you consider that they did no longer acquire Jesus christ as there savior God took away the temple in 70 advert. It replaced into no longer that God replaced his strategies he only replaced the convent with a clean and greater ideal one. Hebrews 8:6-13, "yet now hath he gained a greater surprising ministry, by using how plenty additionally he's the mediator of a greater ideal covenant, which replaced into prevalent upon greater ideal supplies. For if that first covenant were appropriate, then could no place have been sought for the 2d. for looking fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, while i'll make a clean covenant with the residing house of Israel and with the residing house of Judah: no longer in accordance to the covenant that I made with their fathers interior the day as quickly as I took them by using the hand to steer them out of the land of Egypt; because of the fact they persevered no longer in my covenant, and that i recognized them no longer, saith the Lord. For it is the covenant that i'll make with the residing house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; i'll place my regulations into their strategies, and write them of their hearts: and that i'll be to them a God, and that they are going to be to me a people: and that they shall no longer teach each and every guy his neighbour, and each guy his brother, announcing, comprehend the Lord: for all shall comprehend me, from the least to the ideal. For i'll be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I bear in strategies not greater. In that he saith, a clean covenant, he hath made the 1st previous. Now that which decayeth and waxeth previous is able to fade away."

    Unchanging? lol. I know you have to be kidding with that fish adams and monkeys made of DNA nonsense but religion morphs and changes all the time. Some of the followers just don't like to acknowledge it and rationalize it away.

    God's word in the Bible, note few to no Christians believe the god now expects them to follow these pronouncements from their god.

    Lev 23 “‘When you enter the land and plant any kind of fruit tree, regard its fruit as forbidden.[b] For three years you are to consider it forbidden; it must not be eaten. 24 In the fourth year all its fruit will be holy, an offering of praise to the Lord. 25 But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit. In this way your harvest will be increased. I am the Lord your God.

    27 “‘Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard

    Lev 20 If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death

    Lev 27 “‘A man or woman who is a medium or spirits among you must be put to death. You are to stone them; their blood will be on their own heads.’”

    If any of you—whether an Israelite or a foreigner residing in Israel—presents a gift for a burnt offering to the Lord, either to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering, 19 you must present a male without defect from the cattle, sheep or goats in order that it may be accepted on your behalf. 20 Do not bring anything with a defect, because it will not be accepted on your behalf. 21 When anyone brings from the herd or flock a fellowship offering to the Lord to fulfill a special vow or as a freewill offering, it must be without defect or blemish to be acceptable.

    Lev 19:19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woolen come upon thee.

    As I understand it modern Christians say once Jesus acted as a sacrifice to appease the blood lust certain regulations were no longer applicable. This represents a shift in the standards and word of the god as much as adjusting information based on better information. Only with religion it's just a lot more arbitrary and nonsensical.

    The 'Word of God' may not change, but people's interpretation of it certainly does. That is why people used to use it to justify slavery. Science changes 'its mind' (though not every 5 minutes) because it is a process of discovery and learning. When science finds new facts it learns from them. Religion often refuses to change and so learns nothing.

    "First were evolved from fish made of adams then we are monkeys made of DNA. Which is it? Make up your minds scientists!"

    You seem to be scientifically illiterate, and linguistically semi-literate.

    The best response they could give would be this one. We know there is a law of gravity but then we found out about the laws of lift and thrust and now have jumbo airliners. So a good argument would be god knows everything and we are just starting to find a small glimpse of his mysteries.

    Because God knows everything but scientists are still learning.

  • 8 years ago

    Because the Word of the God Yahweh is based on His advanced scientific knowledge that mankind mistranslated into the religious text we still think it means. Expect much more man made theories to fall by the wayside as our scientific knowledge continues to catch up to that of our Intelligent Designer.

    On the way to the promised land, God had Moses wage a war campaign against the Midian. Moses was told to put every Midianite to death, plunder anything of value, set fire to their towns where they lived and all their encampments. Moses gave the orders to his troops (the sons of Israel) and went on a further campaign. On the return of his troops Moses was enraged with the commanders of the army. He said, “Why have you spared the life of all the women and children? You are to kill all the children and kill all the women who have slept with a man. The lord says spare the lives only of the young girls who have not slept with a man, and take them for yourselves, so that we may multiply into a great nation.” Yes, friends, this is biblical infinite mercy and compassion for you. I particularly like the way that Moses got upset with them for sparing women and male children, but allowed the young girls to be kept for later raping.

    I have had some Christians proclaim that these Midianite girls were not taken for raping but marriage. How ridiculous! If you continue further in the scripture you will find that marriage to a Midianite was a crime against God. A man named Zimri, broke the law and married a Midianite woman this angered God so he sent a plague among the Hebrews. Fortunately, a zealous son of Israel speared Zimri right through the genitals, and the plague went away. So now I ask you, if you could not marry a Midianite, just what were these “virgin woman who were to help multiply” good for?

    Because scientists aren't afraid of admitting that they are wrong. They obtain verifiable evidence to test the accuracy of their theories. Scientific theories evolve and become modified as new available evidence is collected. I suggest you do some sufficient research on Human evolution because you haven't got a clue on what it is.

    In addition, you are still gullible enough to believe in primitive, superstitious and unsubstantiated religious dogma proposed no more than 2000 years ago.

    EDIT: The Bible has been altered numerous times by unidentified authors over hundreds of years which has been translated into thousand of languages.

    Oh, sorry. Guess we should get rid of all this new fangled science and go back to the days of boiling tar for amputations. Or is science OK when it's not contradicting your dogma?
