Inherently Flawed Theory

The mere fact that the actual nature of gravity cannot be presently explained, is not proof, in scientific terms, that the laws of gravity are invalid. Laws of science are not dependent upon a complete understanding of the forces or actions that result in the theories derived from such forces or actions. Such laws and theories are derived from direct observation, and capable of accurately predicting observational events. The notion that God pushes object back to the earth is absurd, in the extreme, and has no scriptural bases. Are we ask to believe that when object subject to Gods influence hit and hurt individual, that God deliberatively aimed these objects toward innocent people. Did God "push" downward all of the bombs that destroyed homes, businesses, and precious lives. How silly, stupid, and misguided. This is a demonstrably flawed example of Evangelical Science attempting to impose their certitude of scriptural interpretation and primacy upon a categorically distinct reality. When Evangelical Science, can predict, with similar accuracy, the law of gravity, I will become a receptive listener. As well, when then can explain, and justify the destruction to innocent lives that have resulted from "a higher intelligence", "pushing" bombs down, upon, men, women, and children, perhaps, then, I will gain some insight into their perspective. In point of fact, this will never happen. Evangelical Science, is not science, in the traditional sense. If they regard traditional science to be invalid, it is therefore impossible, and irrational to gauge, weigh, measure, compare, or contrast, traditional science with scriptural interpretation. Therefore, their arguments are manifestly flawed, and self-serving. In short, Evangelical Science is committing a categorical error of the first order, strategically designed to supplant, with pseudoscience, based on an intellectual interpretation of certain scriptures; most Christians do not understand or subscribe to, with a simplistic and infantile explanation of scientific established theories.
