The Biblical Narrative Part 2 of 10
Because darkness is the absence of light…looking back now in hindsight…the steady progress of the light of scientific investigation of the natural world was always going to lead to a massively important theological epiphany…a non-materialistic final conclusion.
Given the true complexity of the natural world…the naturalistic materialism of Darwinian macroevolution was never going to survive the transition from the modern Age of Science in past decades to the current Age of Information…because random-chance search strategies cannot…in theory or in practice…produce complex things such as long words having more than three letters, full sentences, paragraphs, entire books in English or any other language, and the exceedingly complex language-of-life DNA molecule in living organisms…consisting of a coordinated double-helix strand of 3.4 to 3.5 billion bits (letters) in the form of a four-letter alphabet…of connected yet distinct biochemical information…the longest single “word” in existence…intelligently arranged sequentially to produce function…like a book or computer software code.
Assembling a small, isolated island of coherently meaningful information through a mindless, unguided, trial-and-error process…one step at a time…also simultaneously creates the by-product of a massive surrounding ocean of nonsensical junk…of failed trials…of meaningless gibberish.
A sea of errors is not what we observe in the natural world. The surrounding ocean of nonsensical junk does not exist anywhere in the universe…not in DNA, not in the fine-tuning of the cosmos to support complex life such as ourselves, and not in the architectural body-plans and lifestyle habits…of brilliantly varied instinct…in all living creatures.
This notion is summed-up in the popular phrase: “God makes no junk.”
The novelist Agatha Christie would use up all of the paper and ink on the planet…long before she could successfully compose one of her classic murder mysteries like And Then There Were None…daily sitting at her typewriter hour-after-hour hitting random keystrokes…with her eyes closed.
The end-point result…the best final resolution of human scientific investigation was always going to emphatically refute blind, unguided naturalistic materialism…because the natural world always contained vast amounts of information…intelligently organized and sequenced for functional utility…too complex for naturalistic explanations of origin…waiting eons of time for human beings to discover the true nature and extent of this information…through the advancement of modern scientific investigation…to our present time.
Can everyone see the displacement element in the biblical narrative stories of faith...connected to the brilliance of a Creator God...demonstrated through modern science...who would therefore be better at writing life-scripts than we are?
What are your thoughts?
