RE: Science is the Study of Natural Creation and is Not the Study of God

I'd further like to state that science delves into creation while bypassing the ultimate Creator, which I personally see as deception.

I really wonder where you think the deception is? Science is the study of the reality we seem to all share. Scientists look at the world around them and start digging into with with experiments and with generations of people doing the same, we amass some knowledge and understanding about how the world around us seems to work. There is no deception in that process. The people that are obscuring the truth are the ones that try to claim that there is something wrong with studying the world around us and discovering things about it.

science is ever changing

Science is ever improving. It's expanding our understanding of the world around us. If we care about knowledge and truth, what else are we to do anyway?

Maybe it's just me, but I tend to think that denying God is very closed-minded.

Why would not believing in a claim be close-mindedness? If a person demands evidence before they accept a claim, that makes them less close-minded because they are always willing to change their position when they are presented with evidence. The close-mindedness comes when you accept something on faith and you shut out any evidence that contradicts your unsubstantiated assumptions about the world because the person values their faith more than they value finding out about reality.

Those who follow along this path worship creation rather than the Creator, who is by far more amazing than creation itself. It is far more important that we know Him and seek His will.

Science and the human desire for knowledge and technological progress has nothing to do with worship. You know what is the difference between reality (which you seem to call creation) and the supposed creator you speak of? The fact that all of us can see, test and study reality while nobody has yet managed to show that a creator indeed exists. Yet you claim that studying the reality we know exists is deception while accepting somebody else's unproven claims about a supposed deity is not. I'm sorry, but I see that as totally unreasonable and unjustified.

Everyone is free to believe whatever fairy-tale they choose to, but saying that studying reality is more deceptive than accepting your chosen fairy-tale on faith can in my honest opinion be only delusional or dishonest, but by no means could it be reasonable.

LIFE AFTER DEATH: Scientists reveal shock findings from groundbreaking study: [...]

It's really not a matter of how long the brain preserves some activity after the heart stops, but a matter of if that activity can somehow continue forever and get translated to some supernatural realm. Could this study even suggest the possibility of let alone justify a claim like that? In my opinion, not at all.

Anyone can choose to believe these scriptures or not, but God's word sends out a challenge to every living soul that seek the absolute truth.

The big question here I think is why would a reasonable person at all believe those scriptures. How do you know a deity sent those words instead of those words being a deception? If you care about truth, wouldn't you start with thing you can be certain of, like the reality we share, not stories that might just as well be made up? If you can find evidence to show that those stories are true - great, I'd be happy to accept them, too, but if you can't - why place any faith in them?
