We Need Christ For Sanity

(quote from RealReality.org/Real_Faith_and_Reason_Vol_2_-_Scientia.pdf)

And though ungodly thinkers like to think logic and science can only work for ungodly people, we found out that just the opposite is the case. They like to believe following Christ is irrational, but not following Christ assures irrational thinking. Given the way logic and reason work, ungodly thinking can’t possibly result in rational thought. Neither logic nor science has any basis in the ungodly thinker’s worldview, but both logic and science make perfect sense for the person Christ is leading, teaching, and correcting. Godly thinking can always give a sane reason for any belief based on divine revelation, but ungodly thinkers can’t present real evidence for their claims. Ungodly thinkers use fallacies to make fake evidence seem real. We’ve fully explored this fact on this journey, but we also find ungodly thinkers continually confirm this to us every time we confront them. In this light, here’s a comment about another debate:

“We, along with two other men, attended the debate anticipating a thorough discussion of the scientific evidences; however, we were sadly mistaken. During over 1 ½ hours of discourse between them the two U.T. professors failed to present one single argument favoring the evolution theory. Mind you, they introduced not one affirmative argument which defended evolution! It was thoroughly disappointing! One would expect, as we did, that men with Ph.D. degrees and supposed specialists in their fields could give at least a defense of the theory.”

“However, their speeches abounded with broad generalizations completely evading the real issue. They constantly strayed into philosophical and religious areas, when the debate was supposed to be centered around scientific information. In fact, they made fun of conservative biblical interpretation and tried to cast reflection on anyone not believing in evolution. Yet the whole time they offered no scientific material to support their opinionated speeches. They repeatedly said they believed evolution to be a better explanation of life than creation, but were utterly destitute of reasons WHY they felt this way!” ~ icr.org
