SPEAK WHEN THE BIBLE SPEAKS AND DO THE SAME FOR SCIENCE

TO RETURN CHRISTIANITY TO WHAT IT ORIGINALLY WAS, THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN:
SPEAK WHEN THE BIBLE SPEAKS AND DO THE SAME FOR SCIENCE. (part 1).
The universe is fine-tuned to be a host for life. A slight difference in gravitational and electromagnetic attraction strength, the masses of elementary particles, and the universe’s initial arrangement of matter and energy would have rendered life impossible. The existence of a multiverse isn’t possible nor relevant. Prior unexplained fine-tuning must be in place before life can happen. Systems possessing practical and digital information invariably arise from intelligent causes. Digital data can only occur from an intelligent source. There is a complex information transmission and processing system in every living cell. Data can only arise from conscious activity.
Materialistic evolutionary theories can’t develop digital information.
Discoveries in molecular biology have revealed digital code at the foundation of life. Physical parameters have been fine-tuned to produce life. Without coding, there would be no life.
The chemical constituents in DNA function like letters in a written language or digital symbols in a computer code. The functionally specified information in DNA is the key signature of intelligence.
Chances of the coding resulting from natural prebiotic selection acting on random changes are less than zero. Proteins can communicate through DNA, conducting a long-distance dialogue as a genetic switch.
No coding, no life. Physical parameters that had been fine-tuned to produce life in the universe:
Gravitational constant: 1 part in 10^34
Electromagnetic force versus the force of gravity: 1 piece in 10^37
Cosmological constant: 1 position in 10^120
The mass density of the universe: 1 place in 10^59
The expansion rate of the universe: 1 part in 10^55
Initial entropy: 1 piece in 10^ (10^123)
The incredible, astronomically precise, and purposeful fine-tuned components that went into crafting the laws and constants of the universe could not have developed by chance.
The foundation of Darwinism: 1st: Macroevolution: Small-scale changes in a population of organisms. 2nd: Universal Common Descent: The view that all organisms are related and descend from a single common ancestor. 3rd: Natural Selection: The belief that an unguided process of natural selection acting upon random mutation has been the primary
mechanism that drives the evolution of life. Materialists claim the universe created itself using the laws of physics.
Who or what wrote the laws of the universe?
No, randomness did not come up with them. A roll of the dice did not cause the universe’s first cause. The materialist’s religion is this: In the beginning, there was nothing but an absolute void; there was no space.
This was before time kicked in. The universe was without form. What caused that non-existent something to fluctuate? By chance, there was a fluctuation that caused a random explosion.
Organisms contain machines. Machines arise only by intelligence. Biological machine systems are more complicated than manufactured machines. The human brain is unimaginably more complex than a computer. Our bodies have an immune system that can heal themselves.
Saving science from the ignorant masses and defending a materialist worldview is the aim of many scientists, academics, and intellectuals.
Many scientists believe they must base their work strictly on materialism in today’s culture. Conversely, Christianity preaches from a two-thousand-year-old narrative. They don’t want to revise their message, but an update incorporating today’s scientific knowledge must happen. Christianity needs to include scientific truths in its preaching by:
