Be Ready Always

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
(1 Peter 3:15) KJV

Is there any point trying to reason with people whose worldview depends on the denial of cause? And, if they can’t comprehend cause and effect does that mean that they have a reprobate mind?

Reprobate Mind

But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
(1 Corinthians 9:27) KJV

We (most of us anyway) have a conscience. When we do something wrong we feel bad about it. We may even fear the consequences of what we’ve done, karma, coming back on us because we reap what we sow.

What Caused the Universe?

“You are My witnesses,” says the LORD, “And My servant whom I have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, And understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be after Me.
(Isaiah 43:10) NKJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) are investigating how people regard the relationship of cause and effect by evaluating the responses we get to the question: what caused the universe?

Nonunicornism

Should I remain silent while you babble on? When you mock God, shouldn’t someone make you ashamed?
(Job 11:3) NLT

Atheist science trolls (ASTs) will pull random stuff out of thin air in their eagerness to mock we people of faith, but there are some recognizable patterns. It would seem that AST masters of yesteryear made up some responses which have past into AST lore because a lot of people use the same ones. A lot of them involve unicorns.

Evolution

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
(Romans 1:22-23) KJV

The fifth axiom of popular science (SciPop) is Humanity is a product of biological evolution. It’s wishful thinking, an inductive rationalization of the premise of evolution.

The Decay Constant

For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
(Romans 8:20-21) ESV

The fourth axiom of popular science (SciPop) is nuclear decay has always been constant. It’s wishful thinking, a way to induce a rationalization of radiometric data to make rocks look older than they really are.

The Theory of Evolution

They say they are wise, but they are fools; 23 instead of worshiping the immortal God, they worship images made to look like mortals or birds or animals or reptiles.
(Romans 1:22-23) Good News Translation

Evolution, naturally, goes back to Sir Charles Darwin and his infamous book: On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.

Synonymy

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
(Matthew 24:29) KJV

The third axiom of popular science (SciPop) is stars are distant suns and galaxies. It’s part of Galileo’s Bluff, wishful thinking, an inductive rationalization of the premise that stars are distant suns and galaxies.

Heliocentricity

For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.
(Romans 8:24-25) NKJV

The second axiom of popular science (SciPop) is Earth orbits the sun. It’s embodied in Copernicus’ 7 assumptions. It’s wishful thinking, just instructions how to imagine the universe from a frame of reference other than the Earth.

Peer Review

He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
(2 Samuel 22:10) NKJV

The SciPop narrative of godless existence has been developed by the process of peer review. Peer review is the ruler of a pantheon of deities which serve to protect the 5 axioms of SciPop.
