2. THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD ISFOOLISHNESS WITH GOD.2.1 Our God Is A Remarkable God!(a) Ordinary Arithmetic.We live in anarithmetic-environment where people count asfollows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
etc., and society hasalready produced brilliant individuals andgeniuses in the fields of e.g. mathematics,quantum-physics, quantum-mechanics andmolecular-biology. I recently read about a manwho could calculate the
(³√)
of a numberconstituting
250 figures
in a matter of seconds (off the cuff).(b) Super Arithmetic?However, will ourgeniuses still prove so adept in the presence of asociety in a universe or galaxy where its citizenscounted as follows:
1¹, 2², 3³, 4
⁴
, 5
⁵
, 6
⁶
, 7 i.e. 1, 4, 27,
⁷
256, 3 125, 46 656, 823 543,
etc.? Yet God will laughat sums like that! Then we (and especially theatheists and evolutionists) sometimes still havethe audacity to pit our pathetic IQ's (of between ±70 and ± 210) against this Intellect with an IQ of ∞ (Infinity) ... what arrogant insolence and lack of plain commonsense!
2.2 The Bible Says That God's Mind Is Infinite.(∞).(a) He Names The Stars.He knows how many stars there are and probably named them all. Inthe
Milky Way
alone (our galaxy) the number of stars have been estimated at
100 000 million
(and there are
billions
of such an other galaxies,some smaller, some bigger):
He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite. TheLORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down tothe ground.
(Ps.147:4-6).
(b) The Position Of The Earth.
(i)
He hangs theEarth upon nothing. The Earth rotates about itsown imaginery axis at ± 1609 k.p.h. and fliesthrough space in its orbit around the Sun at ± 107000 k.p.h.:
He stretcheth out the north over the emptyplace, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
(Job 26:7).
(ii)
Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of hishand, and meted out heaven with the span, andcomprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, andweighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?
(Jes.40:12 ).
(d) Lego-Blocks Mentality?In comparison toGod, the most giftest of us appear as toddlersfooling around with
lego blocks
for the first time.No wonder the Bible teaches that the
fear of theLord
is the
beginning of wisdom:
And unto man hesaid, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and todepart from evil is understanding.
(Job 28;28).
The fear of theLORD
is
the beginning of wisdom: a good understandinghave all they that do
his commandments
: his praiseendureth for ever.
(Ps.111:10a).
God is, in other words,not our invisible (imaginery) playmate or muteidol on a mantlepiece somewhere. God is the Al-mighty ... an omnipotent and infinitely intelligent
[Nazis]had been scattered, or converted; and the suicide of the exiled priest[Hitler]is the natural end of chapter inhistory: the history, it seems, of a savage tribe[Nazis]and aprimitive superstition['Eugenics'/Evolution'].'
(
'The Last Days Of Hitler'
, p.230, Pan Books Ltd, London - 1947).
One of the World'smost respected historians likened
'Nazism'
,
'Eugenics'
and
'Evolution'
to a
savage tribe
espousing a
primitive superstition
.(h) Falsifications & Misrepresentations.All the
following pieces of 'evidence for
Evolution
' wereeither fabrications or misrepresentations:
(i)
Ar-chaeopteryx
(fabrication)
;
(ii)Java Man
(misrepresentation:
gibbon-ape
)
;
(iii)
Lucy
(misrepresentation:
pigmy-chimpanzee
)
;
(iv)PiltdownMan
(
fabrication
)
;
(v)Peking Man
(misrepresentation:
ordinary humans
)
;
(vi)
Nebraska Man
(misre-presentation:
tooth of a pig
)
;
(vii)Orce Man
(misrepresentation:
skull of a 4-month old donkey
)
;
(viii)Mrs. Ples
(misrepresentation:
ape
)
;
(ix)
Rhode-sian Man
(misrepresentation:
ordinary human
)
;
(x)
the
Taung Child
(misrepresentation:
ape
)
;
(xi)Neanderthal Man
(misrepresentation:
ordinary human of immense age probably suffering from Vitamin D-defiency diseases/rickets/diabetes/arthritis
).
(xii)
TheEvolutio- nists have an unfortunate andembarrassing history of fossil-evidencefabrication and/or misrepresentation, as we havealready seen. The most embarrassing, I suppose,was when a live specimen of the so-called
coelacanth
('extinct for 70 million years'),
suddenly showed up off the coast of SouthAfrica/Mocambique on 22 December 1938.Amazingly, the live-specimen looked exactly likethe
'70 million year'
old fossil-specimen! Thus, no
Evolutionary
change had taken place over
'70million years'
! (What a nice Christmas-gift for theatheists).(i)
The Law Of Creatorship.
The
'Law Of Creatorship'
states that the
creator
or
maker
of an object or a product will always be more
intelligent
and
complex
than the object orproduct itself, whether that object or product is apaper airplane or a nuclear plant. When oneconsiders the complexity of the
Electro-magneticSpectrum
or the
Periodic Tabel Of
Elements
, onehas to acknowledge that this Universe is anextremely complex place. What must the
Being
who created it be like? Don't feel bad if you areunable to conceptualise Him, for if God could bevisualised and understood by a little ± 1,5 kg.brain, He would not have been God, and even lessworthwhile to worship.(j) Diameter Of The Universe.Astronomers
estimate the
diameter
of the visible Universe atabout
'30 billion lightyears'
. That amounts toapproximately
30 billion x 9,4 trillion kilometers
= ±
282 billion trillion kilometers
. Nobody knows exactly whatthe final horizons and boundaries (if they indeedexist) of time, space and matter look like ...horizons and boundaries that are the exclusivedomain of God ... at least in this dispensation.
1. THE WISDOM OF THIS WORLD.1.1 We Live In 'Miraculous' Times.(a) New Discoveries?We live in the age of thewonders of the atom; space-laboratories; theHubble-telescope; cellphones; radio; televisionand laptop-computers. One can only, at best,speculate what future 'Benjamin Franklins','Thomas Edisons' and 'Albert Einsteins' are stillgoing to unravel. Nobody can really guess whatthe human race is still capable of or what scienceis going to discover next.(b) Astronomy, Cosmology And Physics.Thesefascinating fields announce, on an almost daily basis, new discoveries in the fields of space-exploration, while those working in
QuantumPhysics
and
Quantum Mechanics
are stillspeculating on the possible existence andbehaviour of
quarks
and
superstrings
... perhapsthe most minute of
particles
in existence
in the
Micro-Cosmos.
Nuclear-physicists andphilosophers are still talking about themysterious
Uncertainty Principle,
the behaviourof
positrons
and the secrecy
in which the natureof
anti-matter
is veiled.1.2 Science Is Not Always Moonlight AndRoses.(a) Cloning Dolly.This exercise was not really a
bleeting success, was it? How long did Dolly
survive
, and how much did she
cost?
How many
descendants
did Dolly leave behind? How many sheep were anyway born since the cloning of Dolly, and that without the aid of men in whitecoats and with thick spectacles? The South-Koreans also cloned seven sniffer-dogs recently ...
science
or
ego trip?
What irony ... while they were cloning 7 dogs at ± R2,3 million, theChinese were (earlier) reportedly putting downover 700 000 dogs in Peking.(b)
Evolution Has Flopped.After 150 years theevolutionists are still trying to get Evolution (aphenomenon that is supposed to transform oursociety Godlessly, brainlessly, randomly and voidof any intelligence and planning) to work, to noavail.
(i)
First it was so-called
Natural Selection
('Darwinism')
; then came
(ii)
Natural Selection +Mutations
('Neo-Darwinism')
. When that flopped,somebody suggested
(iii)
the
Inheritance Of Acquired Characteristics
('Lamarckism')
, and, morethan 900 disgusted and tailless white mice later,Gould and Goldschmidt surprised us with
(iv)
Punctuated Equilibrium
('Hopeful Monster-theory')
... also to no avail.(c) No Transitional Fossils Ever Found.
Paleontologists have been searching for over a100 years now for
intermediary
(
transitional)fossils
as proof for Evolution, but, in spite of more than 100 million classified and labelledfragments Worldwide in collections and mu-seums, none has ever been found! Out of theprobably billions of fossils still buried in the richKaroo-formation, no
transitional fossil
has everbeen discovered to this day.(d) Proof For Evolution?So poor is the so-called 'proofs' for Evolution (conceded by theEvolusionists themselves) that those specimensthey would be willing to present in 'Court' asevidence for Evolution, could probably bedisplayed on one single billiard-table, and,afterwards, removed in a single coffin (exactly where it belongs ... R.I.P.)(e) Social Blunder!The paleontologist, Mary
Leakey (an Evolutionist), once committed theunforgetable
faux pas
in New York City by reprimanding the organisers of an Evolution-symposium for daring to display the World's only 'prima evidence' for Evolution on a
single table
...she pointed out to the organisers that afundamentalist-fanatic could be audaciousenough to destroy the World's
Evolution-legacy
in one clean sweep with a homemade-bomb. Thejoke was that her remarks implied that Evolutionwas an unproven theory suffering from a seriouslack of
credible evidence
. If the Theory weretrue, our planet would have been inundated withfragment-evidence, which probably could noteven have been contained by the HoustonAstrodome, never mind a local symposium.(e) Stanley Miller And Amino Acids?Stanley
Miller tried his best to manufacture
amino acids
in a laboratory to 'create life' ... but that failedmiserably. Humans and animals are made up of LH (
Left-handed)
amino acids ... 'syntheticamino acids' from laboratories always contain LH+ RH (
Left- plus Right-handed)
amino acids.Miller's failure was actually a good thing for theevolutionists ... had he succeeded, he would only have proved the creationists
right
... i.e. the
creation of life
presupposes and demands a

Intelligence
,

,

etc.(f) Why Does Evolution Need A Midwife?Why does Evolution need people to
perpetuate
theTheory (market, promote, defend)? Why can't
Mother Evolution
no longer cope on her ownafter her previous 'successes' for '15 billion years'(the Universe) and '5 billion years' (the SolarSystem)? Why does Evolution need its ownproduct (
homo sapiens sapiens
... 'wise wise man'(poleeeze!) as an academic
midwife
(in the formof
books, symposiums, evolutionists, paleontolo-gists, etc.)
to help it out of its dilemma?(g) Hitler's 'Eugenics' Experiment.Adolf Hitler,
who believed in Evolution, implemented his
'Eugenics-experiment'
(i.r.o. the
'superior aryanraces'
) with great fanfare during WWII, but itfailed dismally when he committed suicide on 30April 1945. The historian, H.R. Trevor-Roper,writes:
“Now the god
[Hitler]himself had perished; thetemple['Third Reich']had been utterly destroyed; the faithful
