2. Mysteries and Contradictions in Science and Religion

These pages are in response to those who are so certain that modern science disproves the Bible and proves that there is no God without having studied them for themselves.

It is amazing how much modern science aligns with the Bible rather than disproves it as opposed to the more popular view to the contrary. It really is incredible how the ancient wording of the Bible describe in their own way the realities that we are discovering today.

That is not to say that there are not still mysteries and contradictions between current scientific understanding (based on observation and experimentation) and the Bible, but it must be recognised that there are also mysteries and contradictions within scientic understanding (based on observation and experimentation) itself!

The purpose of these pages is not to prove anything or give all the answers, but it is two-fold:

1) to help those Christians whose faith has been shaken by claims that science disproves the Bible and the existence of God and

2) to stimulate thought and investigation into the truth of the Bible to those who otherwise would not because of an unfounded rejection of it.

ARE YOU SURE ... that mysteries and contradictions would cause you to reject something? Because then you would have to reject science as well as it has mysteries and contradictions to it’s theories.

To read about some of these, quantum physicist Michael Brooks wrote a great book called “13 Things That Don’t Make Sense. The Most Intriguing Scientific Mysteries of Our Times” He has also written an article for New Scientist that can be read here: https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg18524911-600-13-things-that-do-not-make-sense/
