Chapter 11. Challenge. Can science exist without
God? All right, folks, we've reached the final
boss battle of atheist logic. How do scientists
even justify doing science without believing
in the very foundations that make science possible?
Short answer, they don't. They just hope you
don't notice. Let's break this down like a bad
science fiction movie plot. Step one, assume
science works without justifying it. Evolutionary
scientists get up in the morning, drink their
coffee, and trust that logic, uniformity, and
rationality will still be here today. They don't
step into a lab worried that gravity might change
its mind. They don't triple -check if 2 plus
2 still equals 4. They don't wonder if fire will
decide to freeze things instead of burn them.
They just assume reality is stable, predictable,
and logical. But wait, why? If the Big Bang was
just an accident, and life is just a meaningless
fluke, and everything is random, then how do
they rationally justify trusting in order? Oh,
right, they don't. They just pretend science
works because it works. Step 2. Forget that science
needs transcendental foundations. Science isn't
just playing with chemicals in a lab. It requires
things that atheism can't explain. Logic. Why
should a universe that came from random chaos
obey any logical principles? Why do the laws
of physics hold? Where did math come from? Uniformity
in nature? If everything came from a meaningless
explosion, why does the universe behave in a
stable, orderly way instead of descending into
chaos every five minutes? Consciousness and rationality.
If your brain is just a bunch of atoms bouncing
around randomly, how can you trust your thoughts
to be true instead of just a side effect of evolutionary
brain chemistry? Information in DNA. Why do mindless
processes generate complex, structured information?
Who programmed the genetic code? Oh, and here's
the kicker. You can't even ask these questions
without assuming logic, reason, and truth exist.
Atheist translation. Don't ask, just accept that
it works. Step 3. The grand act of pretending
science exists without a creator. Imagine this
conversation. Atheist scientist. We don't need
God. Science explains everything. You. Okay,
where did logic and uniformity in nature come
from? Atheist scientist. Uh, science? You. No,
I mean, why do these things exist in the first
place? Atheist scientist. Stop asking questions
and trust the science, bro. This is intellectual
bankruptcy at its finest. They act like science
can function in a universe with no foundation
for logic, order, or rationality. But if the
universe has no cause, no purpose, and no order,
then why should scientific inquiry even be possible?
Spoiler alert. It wouldn't be. But don't worry,
their solution is to make up stuff like... The
laws of nature just exist, okay? Maybe an infinite
number of universes exist, and we got lucky.
Who cares about philosophical nonsense? Just
do the experiment. Brilliant. Truly scientific.
Step 4. Atheist scientists keep borrowing from
theism. Atheists say God isn't real, but science
is. But then they steal from God's worldview
every time they... Trust that logic and math
are real. Assume the laws of physics will be
the same tomorrow. Believe their own reasoning
is reliable. Expect their experiments to work
consistently. They depend on theistic assumptions,
order, logic, meaning, and truth to do their
work, while denying the very foundation that
makes those things possible. This is called stealing
from God. It's like an atheist saying, cars don't
exist, while driving to work every morning. Or
like someone saying, I don't believe in chefs,
while eating a steak dinner. Final round. The
Bible had it right all along. Science works because
the universe was designed to be orderly, rational,
and logical. The Bible explains why science works
better than any atheist ever could. Genesis 101.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and
the earth. Not in the beginning. A random explosion
just happened for no reason. Colossians 1 .17
By him all things hold together. So much for
things just exist, bro. Hebrews 1 .3 He upholds
the universe by the word of his power. That's
why your coffee doesn't randomly fly into space.
Thoughts, let's sum it up. Science requires logic,
order, and rationality. Atheism can't justify
logic, order, or rationality. But scientists
need these things to do their job. So they steal
from God's worldview while denying he exists.
Conclusion. The atheist scientist depends on
God's existence while denying him. They mock
believers, but they literally cannot do science
without standing on the very foundations that
only God provides. But don't worry. The atheists
will be back tomorrow, using the uniformity of
nature to argue that everything is a random accident,
while cashing in their research grants. So tell
me again, who's really being irrational?
