About Christianity

science is the new religion. science overtakes the supernatural. there is nothing science cannot explain. science rules.

how many of you think that? i think you might have heard enough about the so many miracles on earth for life to exist so that you have to believe in God, such as if the elements of the earth are slightly different from what we have we would all die. or maybe if we are a little nearer or further from the sun we would all be extinct. or maybe if the composition of the air is not what we have now, we would never have existed in the first place. you can read all these somewhere else.

in my own opinion, i am going to write out what i think is the function of science on earth.

science, of course, is a set of logical reasoning to explain all the things that happened on earth so we could get a better understanding of our surroundings. science, is a set of logic, derived from human intelligence and approved by all. through science, we explained what could not be explained in the past.

many people now do not believe God put a rainbow after rains. rather, people believe it is the what? (humidity or something like that) that causes the rainbow to form. forgive me my physics is terrible. what used to be miracles could be explained by science. natural disasters are no longer divine punishments, they are just reactions of the earth or the shifting of tetonic plates. no i am not going to convince you that disasters are punishments. that is not the point of this post.

to me, God created us on earth. and as this is our home, we need to understand how it works. God is high above, and His wisdom is higher than ours. of course, if left alone, we could never comprehend what the earth is and how it works. so He gave us intelligence to understand it. the set of logic which later formed science is for us to understand our home, and more importantly, to show us there is a God.

science has improved so many years. we researched a lot, and learnt a lot. yet the more we learn, the more things we found out we don't know. we discovered the earth is round, then we found out the earth revolves round the sun, then we found out the solar system is part of the milky way etc. the more we find out, the more we are mystified. the wonders of the nature.

can't you see? there is a God. in just 6 days, He created what we humans, with our science, took more than 5000 years to explore and not yet gain a complete understanding of all His works. shouldn't you feel that the more you dwell into science, the more you are amazed at His works?

to me, science is a tool for us to marvel at His creation, so that we know how great is our God. science, by no means, can replace God. it is not a god. it is not a religion. it is just a set of logic that God gives us so we can use it to explore our home, and to be amazed at His works. give the human race another 10,000 years, and even if we could colonize Pluto, i assure you, we would still not be able to fully explore and understand all that He created and set in place in just 6 days.

now, shouldn't science humble you, instead of making you proud that finally our brain can replace God? idols are what humans made with their hands to worship. science is what humans made up with in their brain with the intelligence given to us - a concept that some people worship. that is, if you believe science can replace God.

there is so much more that i am amazed. billions of people, over thousands of years, could only comprehend only a bit of what was created. remember: science is not a god that can replace God. science is a concept to show us there is a God, and to show us that we, are not God.

about an hour ago, i looked up at the sky from my kitchen when i was waiting for my mother to do her stuff at the kitchen sink. it was evening, and the sun was setting. i saw something which was absolutely normal, but which surprised me. i saw the clouds moving across the sky.

is that shocking? no. it was just surprising to me. because, i have almost forgotten the fact that, clouds can move with the pushing of the wind. i am not joking. maybe, more accurately speaking i did not think about such a fact. the last time i actually saw the clouds moving was so long ago.

every morning, i rush to work, and then i come home. at home i do my own stuffs. study, playing games, writing story, chatting. at work, of course i work, and write my own story during my spare time. work, play sleep. work, play, sleep. weekend. either i make use of it by going out with my friends or i just take a rest a home. i allow myself 9 hours of sleep on saturdays.

i did not notice the natural world very much. even when i look up at the sky, maybe it would be to see if the rain is coming. many of you are like that too, right? we are always so busy with our own things, we forget to stop to see and appreciate what is around us. hmm, is there anyone i want to slam today, or is there anything i want to teach today? not really.

but maybe, if you have the time, stop for a while. enjoy your surroundings. don't get too caught up in your work. because, as we all know, we cannot see when is the end of our lives. maybe, i will die later, or tomorrow, one month later, one year later. who knows? maybe, if you spend 5 minutes everyday appreciating the creation of God, you would find something new. you might see something you never saw before. or you might get closer to God.

when is the last time you saw the clouds moving?
