Letters to show how Einstein viewed God

[Enoch2021]

 

 

I asked if you can be a Christian and and a physicist at the same time. and you respond that you cannot be an atheist and a physicist at the same time? I am not sure that answers my question. I am pretty sure atheists cannot be confused with Christians.

 

 

 

So let me be clear:

 

I would say to be a Physicist/Scientist you must be a Christian/Theist, for the reasons I mentioned.

 

Robert Andrews Millikan Nobel Laureate Physics...

 

"To me it is unthinkable that a real atheist could be a scientist.”

 

Christian Anfinsen Nobel Laureate Chemistry...

 

“I think only an idiot can be an atheist. We must admit that there exists an incomprehensible power or force with limitless foresight and knowledge that started the whole universe going in the first place.”

Margenau, Henry, and Roy A. Varghese, eds. 1997. Cosmos, Bios, Theos: Scientists Reflect on Science, God, and the Origins of the Universe, Life, and Homo sapiens. 4th ed. Chicago and La Salle, Illinois: p. 139.

 

Good?

 

So, I am having problems to understand your lines of reasoning, and probably this is also why I do not understand your lines of reasoning when you talk science.

 

 

Just so I'm clear......You're having problems understanding what "Scientific Theories" and "Formal Hypotheses"  ("Science") are, because you're confused on what my position is regarding what Physicists/Scientists World View must be?

I will answer your question for you. YES you can be a christian and a physicist but you have to do the science God's way not the secular world's way. you need to seek the truth not speculation and assumption or wild eyed theories people like Hawking and others produce.

 

one of the reasons believers have problems with secular science is because they listen to the secular world, and not God. The unbeliever did not invent science and does not own it thus they cannot make th erules which govern it. God has already made the rules and while they may not specifically say use these for science, they still apply to every activity in life.  Read the Bible to get the rules.

I understand. But i admit my ignorance about sciences which do not follow the naturalistic presupposition.

What I can say, with a certain confidence, is that the naturalism-based science I know seems to be pretty effective.

Yes; a recent upgrade failed to take and the website had to go back to the last saved database, which didn't have many recent posts and threads.
