SCIENCE AND TRADITION

1. Scientism vs Science
2. Geo-Centrism
3. Cosmology
4. Chemistry & Physics
5. Math & Science

Science comes from the Latin word, “scientia”, ‘to know’, and to knowledge and understand the nature of matter and energy based on empirical evidence. Science uses a method of probing questions without any concern for the outcome, only what the evidence and facts point to.

Scientism, on the other hand, is the view that science is the only objective means by which to determine what is true or is an unwarranted application of science in situations that are not amenable to scientific inquiry. Scientism is a philosophy among many about the relationship between human beings and their experiences in the world around them. Philosophy and human experience certainly have a place in society, but these have no weight where it comes to pure science.

Discovery of new evidence and facts based on investigation and experimentation may change our understanding on the nature of things, but science remains devoid of strongly held attachments to previously conceived notions. True science does not allow for ignoring the evidence and realities discovered, including social views, political positions, or even e\religious beliefs override rational sound proven empirical data. Assuming the position that science begins with God, allows God to manifest the laws and nature of life and the world we live in. There is no contradiction.

Although there are many disciplines under the umbrella of science, this site will deal primarily with the phenomena of the material universe; i.e., physics, chemistry, geology, biology, astronomy and of course, the common language of all sciences, mathematics. Science also includes cosmology; the discipline dealing with the origin and development of the universe from the perspective of the universally agreed upon understandings of the cosmos based on observation of nature and the universal traditions of divinely reveals truths as well. This includes the impact "the Church" has had on the natural science. History reveals how hundreds of world renowned scientists through the ages who conformed to Christian beliefs based on scripture and traditions of the Catholic Church.

Books have been written on "How the Church changed and built Western Civilization".

Although this page deals primarily with the material or physical universe, we also must acknowledge there is a realm beyond the physical material universe, often referred to as the supernatural, metaphysical, cosmological, a spirit realm, a realm outside of time, space, and matter. This "realm' often stretches beyond human comprehension into the realm of God Himself. St Thomas Aquinas, one of the greatest thinkers, philosophers, theologians, and the angelic Doctor of the Church of the 13th century in his work, "Summa Theologica", spoke of these realms outside our cosmos. Aquinas referred back to the apostle St. Paul at 2 Corinthians 12:2, about three heavens, beyond our world. No human, even Paul did not have complete knowledge of this dimension, but he acknowledged that it exists. How did Paul, Aquinas and many other men of God know of this realm? Let's move forward.

Although this spirit realm, where supernatural spirit creatures (angels) dwell is beyond mankind's finite comprehension, we've been given a glimpse of the spirit realm through both written and oral tradition within the Church of the saints. (2 Thessalonians 2:14) Just as Moses was referred to as the first teacher or "apostle" to the Israelites, so too, St Paul is referred to as the first teacher, "apostle" to the nations, the gentiles. Many of the divine realities and supernatural truths of the spirit realm, began to be revealed only after Jesus established His Church at Pentecost in 33 A.D., after He sent the Holy Spirit to teach mankind God's true nature. Included in these "traditions" is knowledge of the physical universe as well as the spirit realm. Jesus spoke of these things to the prophets in the Old Testament, but more pointedly to His apostles and after, to His Church. He revealed the origin of the universe and many aspects of the spirit realm. He revealed how that these spirit creatures, angels, are able to traverse time and space, by going back and forth between heaven and earth as God directs them. And contrary to alien conspiracy theorists, these angels are not weird grotesque alien creatures that live on other planets ready to invade earth with supernatural powers. As powerful as these angels are, God has given them limited powers, to be used only for His purpose. And like humans, the angels were given a measure of freedom to choose between following God's directives in obedience or not. This is why 1/3 of the angels in heaven followed Lucifer (Isaiah) 14:12) on a rebellious course from God. (Revelation 12:4) Tradition has revealed to us that at some point in time in the distant past, a group of angels turned from God by their own free will and became demons. They saw the splendid powers and beauty of God and these angels desired to be just like God. God then exiled them from His spirit realm, and banished them to dark pits in space unable to escape, as if caught between two realms. This occurred long before God created the material universe, the heavens and earth, before God created mankind and placed them, Adam and Eve, on earth in a garden. And God limited the access these demons have on humankind. Although they've been able to influence humans like Adam and Eve, but the demons are not permitted to transcend or manifest themselves into the material realm, into our world. God's love for mankind caused Him to protect humans from these powerful evil demons to destroy mankind.

Trying to fathom the vastness of God's ability to create life from absolutely nothing and to maintain order throughout the universe on every level is impossible to comprehend for humans.

Genesis 1:[1] In the beginning God created heaven, and earth [2] And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters. [3] And God said: Be light made. And light was made. [4] And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness. [5] And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.

God created the vast material universe, the galaxies of stars, planets, and earth on the first day. At that time earth was void of life and light; “darkness” existed in heaven and earth. Even though God created stars including the Sun on that first day, He did not cause them to emit light yet. It was darkness everything. It's important to note that this light existed independently of the sun, moon, and stars, which were created later on the "fourth day". (Genesis 1:19) The Bible describes the sun, moon, and stars as luminaries placed in the sky to give light on the earth and to govern day and night. God "spoke" light into existence, and the Sun and stars and moon reflect this light. Only then did light shine on the surface of the earth as well as other planets and stars.

Does this all sounds like a fairytale? To unbelievers, yes.

Based on the foregoing, and deductive reasoning that God created the material universe in this order and that on the first day there was no life forms of any kind on earth yet or outside the earth, throughout the universe, since the celestial bodies had just been made and devoid of life too, therefore, we can conclude, earth was at the center of God’s focus since He began creating life here on earth, the center of the universe, thus "geocentrism".

Some of the most renowned and famous scientists of the 20th century have had to acknowledge the "theories" they put forth about the cosmology of the universe were wrong, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr and many others. The two sets of DVD's highlighted below reveal that at the turn of the last century universally accepted experiments were conducted to prove these claims. The material on these DVD's were compiled by renowned PhD scientists, who studied the science of these matters as well as the universal teachings within the Catholic Church.

THE SCIENCE OF CREATION VS THE FANTASY OF EVOLUTION

PROOFS USING CHEMISTY AND MATHEMATICS

Thousandss of books and documents have been written on the subject "creation vs evolution" and there is no way to encapsulate the essence of all the empirical evidence that's been put forth to conclude the matter on this page, but as the great 14th century English Franciscan Friar, scholastic philosopher and theologian, William Ockham concisely put it in his "razor theory";

"Two explanations that account for all the facts, the simpler one is more likely to be correct.

It is applied to a wide range of disciplines, including religion, physics, and medicine."

Let's put this to the test. Take complex molecular biological chemistry coupled with advanced mathematics and see if the simplest answer is the correct one. Unlike how the "scientific community" overwhelms their students and readers with an avalanche of mathematical formulae and "ad-hoc" disconnected theories, such as Albert Einstein's "special theory of relativity" in 1905 (E=mc2) publishing books with scores of pages with little more than purposefully disconnected and disjointed algebraic equations and concocted formula trying to convince the read into believing his thesis with a blur of meaningless information, let's look at the simple straightforward facts.

$Math%20tripe_edited.jpg$

Just 18 years earlier, in 1887, "before" Einstein concocted the "special theory of relativity", a team of physicists, Albert Michelson and Edward Morley had already published the results of their extensive experiments on how light travels. Although it was not their intent, but their experiments disproving Einstein's theory before he even wrote it. And worse, Einstein saw the results of the experiment, before wrote down E=mc2. As it turned out, it was revealed later that Einstein plagiarized his thoughts based on a German scientist, Max Wilberg in the 19th century. Don't bother, you won't find Wilberg's name anywhere; it's been scrubbed like Clinton's bleached hard drive. Einstein couldn't refute the results of the Michelson-Morley experiments and yet Einstein still put forth his erroneous position in the face of concrete empirical data, and rather then submit to the facts, he buried his theoretical nonsense on his blackboards, such as the one above, hoping to dwarf his critics in an ocean of confusion and dreamy soup of letters, symbols and numbers. But true science always comes to light. Again, we're forced to consider Ockham's thesis, basing conclusions on simple facts alone. Why did this happen? The answer is beyond the scope of this page. It's alluded to on "enemies" page.

Let's consider what these "scientists" of the 20th century say about evolution. First, let's observe the molecular structures above, water, an amino acid, and a protein molecule, each more complex then the next. Evolutionists tells us (without any evidence) that these compounds assembled themselves randomly by chance over eons of time, they call "biogenesis". Now let's consider what simple and pure math and science tells us as Ockham suggests and see what we conclude from evidence.

MATHEMATICS:

"Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty."

Is it possible to calculate what it would take for life to occur randomly on earth in the distant past?

Some propose:

The probability of a single protein molecule to spontaneously together is one chance in (10164);

10 x 164 zeros after it. (too large a number to show here)

CHEMISTRY:

Each protein is made of (on average) 300 to 400 amino acids and there are 20 different amino acids that make up all of life.

Now we need to factor in that there are at least 20,000 proteins in a single strand of DNA, the deoxyribonucleic acid molecule, an essential building block of all living things on earth within each cell. Next we'd have to factor in that there are ~3 billion DNA molecules in each human on earth and these DNA molecules are "in pairs". How could all this occur by sheer random chance to arrive at human life on earth? The probability of such numbers does not even exist.

Then we must ask, how long would it take for all these impossibilities to occur by chance?

These same "scientists" claim that the universe has only been in existence for 14 billion years and the earth only 4.5 billion years. Even if by random chance of one in (10164) 10 x 164 with zeros after, we'd have to add 20,000 more zeros in a single DNA molecule. A typical "eukaryotic" cell contains an estimated 100 trillion (10^14) molecules. This number varies depending on the cell type, size, and metabolic activity. These molecules include a wide range of biological macromolecules like proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids, as well as water and other inorganic compounds. The number of zeros of years in order for all this to occur by chances is too preposterous to even consider it. But that's what evolutionists want their believers to accept based on their word. Any ridiculous outrageous theory will due rather than "creation". That's what atheists do. If it's not true, it's a lie.

Rather then accept that material and life came about by design at God's will, these atheist "scientists" have gone on to divert attention to their "other theories". They even go so far as to claim that life on earth came from "outer space", from another planet somewhere in the universe, that seeds of life arrived here somehow by interplanetary travel, they call "Panspermia" by Francis Crick, the Nobel Prize in biology in 1976, who co-authored the discovery of the DNA molecular formula. He would rather believe these DNA molecules "seeds", came from outer space. And Hollywood has helped promote these perposturous notions in "science fiction" movies about it for public consumption.

Even if this absurd fantasy had any merit whatsoever, we would still be stuck with the same problem; How did the "PRIMORTIAL SOUP, the elements of the alien seeds, come from?

Hubble and other space probes, with the use of sophisticated Astro-spectroscopy, point yto the fact, the known elements in space, on the moon and other planets are the same as those on earth in the periodic table of elements.

Did this deter these "scientists" who dismiss creation? Not at all. They simply concocted another outrageous theory to put before their blind followers, "MULTIVERSES"; claiming there are countless "multiple universes" out there, somewhere. In other words, "If the solar system can't produce a seed invented to disprove creation, or if the galaxy can't produce the seed, then let's invent multiple universes and distract the followers further away." Their idea is that the "creationists" can't disprove the "Multiverse theory", nor can the "scientismisians" prove it, so, in their minds, it's still a stalemate. This is the extent to which these "anti-creationists" will go to never admit the truth of creation.

What's interesting that the most people who follow these blind material evolutionary "scientists" around have never even bothered to examine for themselves where these "scientists" first took off on these mindless concepts. "MOST" people who claim to believe this "science fiction" have not even bothereed to read their "alternate evolutionary "BIBLE"... Origin of Species and Descent of Man by Charles Darwin.

Anyone who has read Darwin's tripe, found nothing but pure conjecture and hypothetical ad hoc concoctions coming from the hallucinations of a deranged mind. I know; I read it when I was a chemistry student in college. It was all I could do to stomach the lunacy. But unless you have read it or even the "reader's digest" version of it, then how could anyone claim to believe in evolution? That would be like claiming to believe in God without any knowledge of the Bible and Church tradition. God does not condone "blind faith". So, let the reader use discernment.

Suggestion: Either buy the video below or watch it online through Amazon. It's one of many to open your mind to some of the facts and math of the myth of material evolution.
