So many people consider themselves wise because they are sceptical. They believe in a scientifically confirmed reality.
The achievements of modern science and technology are truly amazing.
We know so much now that was completely unknown a hundred or two hundred years ago.
But there are still many mysteries that the best scientists do not understand.
What is dark matter? There is a lot of matter in space that no instrument can identify, but scientists tell us that this invisible matter must be there because otherwise many gravitational phenomena are inexplicable.
We know that matter is made of atoms, that atoms are composed of protons, neutrons and electrons, and many other things that I don't understand because I'm not a scientist.
We fly from Europe to Australia in 20 hours and use laptops on the plane.
The achievements of scientists have seduced us into thinking we are amazingly intelligent, even though we understand so little.
Educated scientists and technicians can explain a lot. They understand how things work, but when confronted with existential fears, we are in the dark. In the end, even scientists are only mortal human beings.
What happens when we die? Doctors can explain how our bodies shut down when we die, but what comes after that?
We imagine that we understand things that we don't understand at all, but we have a kind of religious faith in the supposed omniscience of scientists.
For many people, science is the new religion. Even if we don't understand this alleged reality, we trust our high priests, the scientists.
Why does anything exist at all? The best scientists have no better answers than toddlers.
Albert Einstein was led to believe in God through his studies. Without God, everything makes no sense.
But if we understand everything as God's creation, how can we explain the existence of evil?
How can God be good if he is the creator and allows so much evil? I can find the answer only in the Bible.
Have you read the Bible with an open heart? I find that the Bible is the only remedy that can save us from hopelessness.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jn 3:16 NIV84
