A forum for discussing matters of moment, from a curmudgeonly perspective. (The ideas posted here do not necessarily represent those of any organization with which I am a part). Rude and insulting remarks will not be published, but civil disagreement is welcome.
As J.P. Moreland once remarked, the university is not the pillar and foundation of the truth--the church is (1 Timothy 3:15).
Perhaps one of the reasons why the "scientific community" has ascended to its position of cultural authority above that of the church is because too many Christians are fideistic. I agree with Moreland, we need to steer away from the "faith language" (fideistically understood) and start speaking in terms of knowledge and truth.
"Science" has been exalted to an idolatrous level in our society and it is time to destroy that sacred cow.
Dissenting scientists are viewed as blasphemers when it comes to the Darwinian myth of progress:
