http://goatrevolution.com/za What is science? What is truth? Sat, 26 Sep 2009 17:32:16 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en It's been a while since my last post (again). I really only stick something on here when I feel I have something significant to say, which I think is better than writing simply to keep reader interest (not that I have many readers, heh). Anyway, earlier this month ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2009/09/25/a-commentary-on-frank-schaeffers-912-blog-post/ In a particular English 103 course in 2007, there was an instructor who would periodically pass out articles taken from the web to his students.  The students were to pick one of the articles and write an essay on the one they chose.  One of these was a piece from ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/12/06/response-to-a-neurological-inquiry/ Proposition 8.  It was an unexpected event for me.  The liberal tendencies of California had me pretty much ignore the proposition up until it was actually passed.  I suppose it is a natural outcome after the earlier requirement that gender ambiguous marriage certificates be issued by churches, regardless of whether ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/11/23/more-musing/ I've been away from my blog for a looooong time.  I have no excuse, but it's not like I need one, right?  It's my blog, after all, hehe. Lately, I've joined up with StumbleUpon, a web service that lets you "stumble" through the web at the click of a button.  You ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/11/22/stumbling-upon-the-big-bang/ Today, I’ll forego discussion on a single topic and just mention a few things I’ve found interesting recently. The first is the release of Ben Stein’s Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. It was released on Friday of last week and I watched it on Sunday. World Net Daily ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/04/24/two-movies-a-lizard-and-a-letter/ Despite its widespread popularity, the claim presented by theistic evolutionists that Genesis 1 describes the correct order of evolution is quite easy to find flaws with. It’s not even necessary to debate about the Flood and the rate of fossilization and erosion. The simple order of events is ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/04/15/days-of-evolution/ I’ve discussed so far the words faith, reason, and science. Now I’d like to do religion. As with in the previous post, I shall start with the Merriam-Webster Dictionary entry. religion 1) the service and worship of God or the supernatural 2) devotion to a religious ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/03/20/religion-a-short-review-of-language-part-2/ It’s been a while since I’ve updated this blog here. To start things up again, I would like to discuss the meaning of several words that are woefully misused in today’s society. I have recently come across someone (who I will not name) who has shown an incredible ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2008/03/18/faith-and-reason-a-short-review-of-language/ It’s funny how many people call Darwinism science when it’s so clearly fantasy. At the very best, I can only say that it has a foundation on a very sandy axiom. At the worst, well, it’s a ridiculous proposition. Here’s a few, of the many, reasons ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2007/12/01/unbelievable/ “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” It was straight from the mouth of Christ that we get the commandment to pay taxes to our government. Just as Caesar’s image was molded into the face of the Roman coin Jesus inspected, we today have the ... http://goatrevolution.com/za/2007/11/04/to-caesar-and-before-caesar/
