Science moves closer to biblical creation.

It sure would be refreshing if our kids or grandkids were being taught that fields "make up the universe" rather than all the crap we were fed.

My grandson is studying welding.

God created the material universe "out of thin air", that is, out of nothing (although there is more to the story than this). Science has moved closer to demonstrating this.

One day some scientists challenged God by saying they could create a better human being.

God agreed. “OK, you’re on.”

The scientists pulled out a shop vac and started to suck up some dust to create their version of a man.

God held up his hand and stopped them.

He said, ”First create your own dust from nothing like I did,”

The earth is a very unnatural place in the universe (which is also pretty unnatural).

How is the earth unnatural? What is supernatural about the earth?

What does “pretty unnatural”, mean? Kinda’, sorta’ natural but not not really?

Can you identify anything about either the earth or the universe that is unnatural?

What is unnatural about the Earth? It is likely there are billions of Earths just in our own galaxy. What are you comparing it to?

Or it could just be that we don't understand what's going on.

When I was a kid, people didn't understand how bees could fly. But bees could fly.

So many matter isn't being created out of nothing. Maybe it only looks like that because of our ignorance.

So far the earth is the only place in the universe that we know of that has life. The 'natural' state of the universe is the absence of life.

God has those, the bible and the church.

Yes. "Naturally occurring" is the apparent state of the universe. We have no experience with anything unnatural, or supernatural.

Let's remember that within a universe that is 13.7 billion +/_ years old, we have only had crude telescopes for a few hundred years. Broadcast radio waves go back for about one hundred years. Those signals get virtually nowhere in the cosmic timeframes. The Hubble is only a few decades old.

Our ignorance of life existing beyond Earth is quite natural since we've only recently begun scientifically searching in earnest for life elsewhere. We do not know so cannot yet state things such as "The 'natural' state of the universe is the absence of life." Such presumption offers only deliberate pessimism to support a political or religious agenda.

Actually, there's this to consider as well:

The church and the bible will have to do. God won't make it easy.

They'll never do, being so obviously man made productions.

Nevertheless, what we know now is that only the earth has life.

If you have read the Bible you'd know that man, on his own, would never write such a thing.

One wonders if the coming "famine of the word" suggests that the Bible will be banned.

What medal do we deserve for "know"ing we're still ignorant?

If you have read the Bible you'd know that man, on his own, would never write such a thing.

I've read most of it. My mileage has been different.

I think that was only in regard to bumble bees.

The bumblebee doesn't look like much of a flyer, but a closer inspection of its flight mechanism reveals interesting physics.

Indeed. What research has found "nothing" to be an actual thing to begin with? Seems to me, both logic and research support dielectric and/or magnetic somethingness existing absolutely everywhere.

Evidence of absence - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The argument from ignorance for "absence of evidence" is not necessarily fallacious, for example, that a potentially life-saving new drug poses no long-term health risk unless proved otherwise. On the other hand, were such an argument to rely imprudently on the lack of research to promote its conclusion, it would be considered an informal fallacy whereas the former can be a persuasive way to shift the burden of proof in an argument or debate.
