Good response Dave in Tenn. It seems the more that scientists "discover" the more there is to discover. God's Great Creation is beyond human understanding but human curiosity keeps them looking.

A further thought. I remember reading about the god particle (Higgs boson) as scientists continue to search for the elemental particles in creation.
Reminds me of Romans 1:20-22.

Dave in Tenn:
I wish the same could be said for religious fundamentalists.

Hello Microlink,
Thanks for reminding me of the Higgs boson. Here is a copy of an old letter to the forum from me in 2007.

Joe,

A book, "The God Particle", written by Leon Lederman about 20 years ago, discussed all the research he had been involved in at Fermi Lab near Chicago, IL.  In that book Lederman, a man who loved a good story, attempted to explain in undergraduate terms how atomic particles are detected.  One method is to detect vibrations.  No vibrations, no detections.
Following that idea, as I recall the story, Lederman explained the God Particle as a point in space vibrating at high frequency.  The subsequent thought then is if the vibrations cease there is no detectable particle, so it's just gone.  That would seem to make the God Particle a vibrating point in space.  Interesting?  Factual? Who knows.

I think the particle was called the Higgs and attributed to it was the capacity to impute mass to other detectable particles within its field of influence

Like most good scientists, these physicist are good at measuring physical aspects of the created universe and at projecting physical effects deriving from that data, but that doesn't mean that they understand how the physical universe actually works.  An example is when they project the measurable speed of light photons within our solar system onto the entire balance of the universe assuming that nothing changes or has changed over time.

In similar manner, the religious scientists get very close to the truth of how God's plan for mankind works, but without direct spiritual revelation they are prone to error and theoretical speculation, and while I have no problem with speculation if it is labeled as such, so called experts try to impress us that they have found the final answer to all of our questions.

I am pleased that folks on the forum have the humility to recognize our limitations and patiently wait upon God to reveal His plan when He is ready. 

Isn't this forum fun?

Bob

Well the fact is there have been living creatures on this earth for millions of years and I do think that God gives man a little insight into how that has happened. I do believe we have micro-evolution, but the great majority of scientists (there may be a very few who give God recognition) cannot seem to bridge the gap that there is a Creator that gave all things their start on this earth, I think that is where the basic flaw in science lies.

But we can gain some knowledge about our earth from their research and studies. But it's like the bible we have to considered the errors in their way of thinking and then we can actually see some truth. Just my way of thinking as I do use science to a degree to better understand the development of earth and it's creatures.
