A bit longer than just a year ago, this article came out on Science Daily, titled "Sun Goes Longer Than Normal Without Producing Sunspots."
A thread had started around this topic over at the Rapture Ready forums, and here's a nice quote from a forum member-
Its funny how scientists think they KNOW everything, and they KNOW there is no God, and they KNOW the big bang theory is real, and they KNOW this and that, but they don't KNOW a simple thing about a planet that is part of our solar system and so important to this world.Now, I don't know whether this person was referring to the Sun as a planet, but this reminds me of one of the traits that seems to frequently occupy the thought processes of believers. Now, I don't want to characterize all theists by claiming they all do this, but this particular Christian seems to be satisfied with ignoring facts about what we do know, and replacing any search for knowledge or real truth with "god is responsible".
How little and insignificant we are.
There are no sunspots because the Lord has simply calmed the sun for now.
dumb scientists.

It's really easy to "solve" a problem when you think like that. No actual thought required to figure it out. Credit god and be done with it.
ReplyDeleteBut, I'd bet a cookie he won't think God doesn't want him driving anymore when his car breaks down. And I bet he'd never take that kind of answer from his mechanic...
Ah rapture ready, a constant source of comedy madness. Cheers for that, brightened up my day no end!
