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.

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.

Their Eyes Were Opened

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.
(Genesis 3:7) NKJV

We’ve challenged the theoretical foundation of popular science (SciPop) and charged that it’s an inductive rationalization of the premise of godless existence. It requires A priori rejecting God as a causal agent.

Effect, Cause and the Reprobate Mind

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
(Romans 1:28) KJV

The “reprobate mind” of Romans 1:28 is a consequence of rejecting the relationship between cause and effect. It manifests as a refusal to acknowledge the relationship between behavior and consequences.
