Poo Poo Post

I am a follower of Ray Comfort on twitter because I like to see what he posts on his blog. This post that I've read just now is the worst thing I've seen him write on his blog. To be honest I haven't read much, but I imagine there isn't a whole lot worse than this. I'm not sure what his point is in this post. If I had to guess I would say the point is, "Science is stupid because it states the obvious." That is science makes claims that are backed up by testable, observable, quantifiable facts; although, Ray would say that science is anything other than fact. I'm going to post the whole blog here because I'm not sure even Ray can stand the sure to be embarrassment that it will bring. The blog post is called Modern Science.

A recent news item said, "Scientists have detected that New Zealand was moved about 30cm (12 inches) closer to Australia by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in the Tasman Sea last week."

There was another report saying,

" . . . on the west coast of the South Island and a 2-inch tsunami reported in the Tasman Sea to the north of the epicenter, according to the U.S. Pacific Tsunami Warning Center."

A whole country moved 12 inches, and a two-inch tsunami. Wow. And people wonder why we lose faith in modern science when they come up with such silliness.

Think of the incredible achievement of landing a man on the moon. When it happened, it was a huge deal. What do we have to show for it 40 years later? A cure to cancer? A cure for the common cold? A permanent solution for starving nations? Nope. We have rocks. Moon rocks.

Now they are talking about landing on the moon once again. The estimated cost for more rocks--$100 billion dollars.

However, knowing the Creator and what He has in store for those that love Him, helps bring all this into perspective. There’s no hurry to check out the universe. We will have eternity to do that.
