[QUOTE="Job 33:6, post: 77649687, member: 399299"] This is so true. And it's honestly a shame that... I'm a Christian evangelical, but also a scientist, and it's very clear that, in the scientific side of things, it's clear cut and clean. And I think that it could be clean on the faith or religious side of things too, but the scientific method isn't really applied to hermeneutics as it should be imo. It wouldn't be called the scientific method, it could be called something else. But the church largely struggles to establish a grounding in which to define rules of interpretation of scripture. And in some cases, it could be possible to establish rules. But there's so much emotion, and at least in America there is a lot of distrust for authority. Even Christian authority. To the extent that there's little order. And a lot of obscurity as a result (in addition to supernatural concepts already being obscure on their own). Like, a lot of PhD Bible scholars have made it very clear that Genesis has nothing to do with the age of the earth. But there's so much distrust in authority, and so many deep emotions and traditions that, they unfortunately go largely ignored. Here are a few examples: [MEDIA=youtube]xcNeHXOiUMg[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]3V2-9Pc4iKM[/MEDIA] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.youtube.com/live/9KXhEpQWyx0?feature=shared[/URL] [MEDIA=youtube]eXNBQALZJws[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]6S3WAzNwJmI[/MEDIA] Lots and lots of scholars of protestant camps in particular. And many support the theory of evolution as well. Yet for some reason they go unnoticed? It's just strange. Similar to ignoring scientific authority, Hebrew Bible scholars are similarly just ignored. For reasons that just aren't always clear to me. Maybe in part for cultural reasons, or maybe related to a tribal kind of mentality. [/QUOTE]
