Of Weather & Things

Today has been wild and windy, well when I arrived in Wales anyway. I left Shipston with the sun breaking through the clouds but just spotting rain. The further south I got the wetter it got. I'm hoping that it clears up for the weekend as we're going to the Air Display at Yeovilton. At least the forecast is for dry weather.

Have you noticed how TV documentaries are beginning to become more and more controversial. National Geographic seem to be leading the way in producing documentaries that are very sceptical about religious matters. If they're not discovering "missing" gospels or discovering the real "Exodus" then they're claiming to have found the Tomb of Jesus.

Maybe this is part of the plan to produce more "evidence" to back up science's claim that it has the answers to every known question. It seems that just by finding a partial skeleton they can produce an exact likeness of a giant flying dinosaur. They don't seem to need a complete skeleton to do this.

Does that not require a leap of faith? Surely they'd need a complete or almost complete skeleton. They made this mistake with the Iguanadon when they stood it up on 2 legs. They are quite happy to ridicule those who have any kind of faith and yet refuse to accept that they also believe in unproven theories.

Is creation really any less valid than the Big Bang or human evolution from monkeys? There is no absolute proof of either and so the people who follow them have to take a step of faith. We don't know how God created Man or how long the six days in Genesis lasted. Yet we believe that God made everything from nothing.

How do scientists actually explain the Big Bang? First there was nothing, then there's something, then there'll not (apologies to Donovan). Have they managed to explain how Earth became the only place on which life took hold? Was it really an accident?
