The Mainstream Science Narrative of godless Existence

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge—by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
(1 Timothy 6:20-21) NKJV

For centuries the scientific mainstream has been building a narrative of godless existence (SciPop). The purpose of SciPop is to account for human existence in a way that requires no supernatural cause.

What is a Fact?

Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
(Isaiah 28:9-10) KJV

Someone made the charge that we’re denying science. It looked like the knee-jerk reaction of someone with a progressive agenda, a scientifically illiterate science worshiper (SISW). We attempted to explain two things:

Matty’s Deduced Principles

In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
(Titus 1:2) KJV

A doubtful Christian asked us to establish the logical connection between the statements God can’t lie and the Bible is true. This is the premise of Matty’s Paradigm so we do need to have a solid grasp of it.

The Induced Axioms of Mainstream Science

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
(2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) NKJV

Yesterday we looked at definitions of axioms, corollaries and principles. We’ve diagnosed the five inherent flaws in the theoretical foundation of popular science (SciPop), its supposed axioms. They are:

Scholium

An old deisel train engine with the number 1687

Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
(Matthew 13:52) KJV

The scholium is 1. a marginal annotation or comment (as on the text of a classic by an early grammarian), 2. a remark or observation subjoined but not essential to a demonstration or a train of reasoning.
– Scholium, definition (Merriam-Webster)

Following on from the Axioms, Corollaries and Principles of Principia Mattymatica are a few loose ends. Like how this allows for the fulfillment of prophecy. Y’know, minor details…

Principles

A just weight and balance are the LORD’S: all the weights of the bag are his work.
(Proverbs 16:11) KJV

Principle (theorem): a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning.
Theorem in mathematics is the deduction of important result from axioms. The same thing in physics relevant to this is called principle.
– Principle, definition

Principles are the theoretical backbone of a paradigm. The internal logic of the paradigm will be consistent if it meets the requirements of the principles.

Corollaries

Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
(Leviticus 19:36) KJV

A corollary is a statement that follows readily from a previous statement.
– Corollary, definition

In Peirce’s theory of deductive reasoning he held that corollarial deduction matches Aristotle’s conception of direct demonstration, which Aristotle regarded as the only thoroughly satisfactory demonstration.

Axioms

For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,
(2 Timothy 4:3) ESV

Axiom (law): a statement or proposition that is regarded as being 1) established, 2) accepted, or 3) self-evidently true. The law in physics is actually same as axiom in mathematics.
– Axiom (law), definition

The axioms of Principia Mattymatica are (1) established and (3) self-evidently true. They aren’t (2) accepted because they’re in deliberate defiance of peer review*.

Principia Mathematica

There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the Spirit of the Holy God. And in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and King Nebuchadnezzar your father—your father the king—made him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers.
(Daniel 5:11) NKJV

Some time ago while studying Newton’s Principia Mathematica it struck us that it would be funny and ironic to write a parody called Principia Mattymatica, the Mattymatical principles of natural theology.

I’m Not a Scientist…

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge— by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith.
(1 Timothy 6:20-21) NKJV

“I’m not a scientist…” is the response that we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) used to get whenever we tried to talk with a Pastor about science. It precedes an admission of ignorance.
