Hi everyone, some summer reading may be for some of you.
What are your views on this subject to you- do you think that there being a Creator God is in harmony/support with the creation story and Science theories of creation or do you think that science and the creation story are incompatible and why.
I am not an expert in this area by any means of science theories. When I was an undergraduate at university I myself was drawn to study a module called Creation, Science and Faith today in my degree course of religious studies major/communications minor. This was before this subject was popular or before the internet was even common place at home to discuss on forums etc. I formed these views alone.
I formed the view that the creation story which applies to the three Abrahamic faiths was not at odds with the Big Bang theories/Comsic Inflation and many believers in God also support this view. The work of Hugo Ross and Gerald L Schroeder who are experts might be a good place to explore more on this subject.
The below is from information online about the theories-the Steady state theory is seen by many as outdated now. I have uploaded an astrophysics magazine at the end which can clicked on and saved and enlarged to read privately.
Scientific Theories:
Big Bang Theory:
This is a cosmological model for the universe's evolution, suggesting it expanded from an extremely hot, dense state. Evidence like redshift and cosmic microwave background radiation supports this theory.
Steady State Theory:
An older theory that proposed the universe has always existed and is continuously creating matter. It has largely been superseded by the Big Bang theory.
Other Theories:
BBC platforms delve into various scientific ideas, such as theories about the nature of dark matter, Einstein's theory of relativity, and the implications of chaos theory.
...........
I will give you my blog post, but this post is much more developed than that-but has got a short video of the globe that some might like to see.
