The fallible "knowledge" of so-called "science" is constantly in a state of changeable flux.

Years ago, the [presumed] "science" of the day was to [mis]believe that the Earth was flat. Even some of the Church (Catholic or otherwise, with Galileo excepted) were tempted to misstate such nonsense, even though the concept of spheres was not unknown to Hebrew Scripture authors:

Job 26:10 He has described a circle upon the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.

Isa 22:18 and whirl you round and round, and throw you like a ball into a wide land; there you shall die, and there shall be your splendid chariots, you shame of your master's house.

Isa 40:22 It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in....

The superstitions of "medical" "science" before the 20th century were goofy and even harmful, with weird and debilitating "cures" without the knowledge of germs, bacteria, and sterilization. Bible-believing Hebrews who obeyed Scripture, on the other hand, survived with such sanitation incentives as:

Ex 40:12 Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water,
Le 8:6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

Le 15:17 And every garment and every skin on which the semen comes shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the evening.

Eze 16:4 And as for your birth, on the day you were born your navel string was not cut, nor were you washed with water to cleanse you, nor rubbed with salt, nor swathed with bands.
Eze 16:9 Then I bathed you with water and washed off your blood from you, and anointed you with oil.

Joh 13:10 Jesus said to him, "He who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but he is clean all over; and you are clean, but not every one of you."

Speaking of Jesus, what blasphemy it is to exclaim: "God!" at someone or something for outbursts of shock, dismay, or anger. Is the one proclaiming "God!" and thus swearing by taking the Lord's name in vain miscalling the thing or object sworn at Divinity to worship....or instead petitioning God in prayer?

Much misunderstanding results from mistranslated English words misrepresenting the precise Hebrew and Greek Text of the Old and New Testaments of The Bible. Consider these two Scriptural passages:

Ge 37:9 Then he dreamed another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, "Behold, I have dreamed another dream; and behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me."
and
Ec 11:7 Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun.

There are two possibilities for the words the sun in both passages. One is that those words signify the actual Sun and the brilliantly-blinding light associated with it, and the other words merely signifying reflected sunlight.

It seems clear that the Genesis 37:9 passage refers to the actual celestial body of the Sun, whereas the Ecclesiastes 11:7 passage refers to humans viewing reflected sunlight and/or with protected gaze (using filters or scientific instruments) staring directly into the blinding light of the Sun.

The Greek Text of Revelation 7:2 ('Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun....') contains the precise Greek-Text letters: (e)liou [which is: eta, lambda, iota, omicron, and upsilon] for sun......whereas the Greek Text of Revelation 16:8 ('The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun....') contains the precise Greek-Text letters: (e)lion [which is: eta, lambda, iota, omicron, and nu] for sun. Someday and hopefully, those arrogantly-stupid know-it-alls who actually know nothing will think twice before casually and flippantly dismissing such differences as incidental and irrelevant "grammatical quirks."

When we euphemistically "step on the gas" to accelerate our vehicle, we instead step on the throttle pedal on the floor of the vehicle to accelerate it, and we do not actually nor physically step on liquid gasoline to accelerate it. And DO "we" accelerate the car?

It is difficult to describe how and to what extent our human actions cause certain phenomena to occur. Indeed, it would be semantically correct to declare: 'See it snow, see it snow, seeit snow' or: 'Watch it snow, watch it snow, watch it snow' rather than with blasphemously self-appointed self-deity, or false-prayer command to the Creator God, blurting out: 'Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow' - as if we could or could not cause it to snow, or order God to do our bidding at our whims.

Getting back to accelerating our vehicle, what part do we ourselves and we alone really have in causing the vehicle to accelerate? God has created our bodies with feet to step on the accelerator pedal, so it is God's owned body doing it.....instead of ours. Do WE cause the atomic structure of the accelerator pedal to be and continue to be mechanically bound to the atomic structure of the floorboard of the vehicle, and do WE keep the atomic structure of that connected to the atomic structure of the throttle? Do WE cause the atomic structure of the battery, spark plugs, and gasoline to function, spark, and ignite for propulsion? Does not instead GOD do all these phenomena Himself....albeit with our mere participation and cooperation?

Which brings us to condemning the absurd concept of evolution.....ALL "evolution" - whether so-called macroevolution OR [genetic-variation-within-like-kinds] microevolution.

Simply put, NOTHING ever creates itself by itself from other things.

Iron ore does not "evolve" into steel by itself, nor does steel "evolve" into cars by itself. Inanimate "mother"-Earth ground does not evolve into living lifeforms by itself, but was manipulated by the Creator-God Lord Jesus who formed lifeforms out of the ground, according to:

Ge 2:9 And out of the ground the LORD God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Ge 2:19 So out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.

Even the wrong and faulty, non-scientific supposition of the existence, then explosion of, a continuously-exploding-then-contracting-then-exploding-then-contracting-etc imaginary glob of Big-Bang matter logically would require a Greater-Than-Big-Bang-Material-Creator causing that Something-That-Never-Previously-Existed into Something-That-For-The-First-Time-Exists. But we have become aware of the Divinely-inspired reverse-prophecy Text of Scripture instead of Big-Bang baloney:

Ge 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Note the words: the Earth. Such global prominence of our privileged planet is fitting and accurate. So much for supposed extraterrestial UFOs and aliens presumably beyond the creatorship, ownership, and control of the Creator Christ we know and worship:

Job 9:9 ....who made the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the chambers of the south....
Job 38:31 "Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades, or loose the cords of Orion?
Am 5:8 He who made the Pleiades and Orion, and turns deep darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the surface of the earth, the LORD is his name....

Romans 8:38-39 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Col 1:17 He [Jesus, the Son of God] is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
