Fifteen years ago I wrote down a few questions, mostly regarding faith and science.
- What does the Bible say about epistemology?
- What are the reasons for believing the Bible is true?
- Is there any other system of belief that is equivalent to the Bible’s moral teachings?
- Does science, in fact, contradict the Bible?
- Can science be wrong?
- Can the Bible be wrong?
- Is it possible to reconcile the question of origins between the Bible and science?
- Does Gen 1:28 give validity to scientific investigation?
- What is science and the scientific method?
- What are the (epistemological) limits of the scientific method?
- What are the limits of Biblical hermeneutics?
- If Genesis is taken as poetic/figurative is harm done to the truth/validity of other Bible teachings?
- Can we scientifically reconcile an old universe, new earth view?
- Can we Biblically reconcile and old universe, new earth view?
- Can the evening-morning sequences in Genesis possibly refer to something other than 24-hour days.
- Does the God-centric frame of reference in Genesis 1-2 make a difference in our understanding of time measures?
- Are there other interpretations of radiometric measurements that can be reconciled with a young earth?
- How good is the evidence for a global deluge?
- Are there any scientific observations that truly point to a young earth–such as Gentry’s Polonium halos?
- Can the observance of speciation be the result of a post-fall decline of nature?
- Is the concept of irreducible complexity, as put forward by Michael Behe, a valid refutation of evolution?
- Can there be a scientific explanation for the instant long-distance communication implied in Dan 9:23?
- Is theistic evolution reconcilable with the Bible?
- Can we scientifically establish the efficacy of the Gospel in changing the lives of people?
- Can faith be shown to be linked to actual outcomes?
- Can it be shown that prayers are answered?
- Can we scientifically establish that the consistency of Bible writers is a near impossibility?
- Can Christianity be confirmed as a cause for superior physical, or mental, health?
- Is antediluvian genetic experimentation a plausible explanation for the dinosaurs?
- Does atheism enhance scientific achievement?
- How do non-Biblical religions reconcile with scientific observations?
- Does Genesis truly imply an ex nihilo creation?
- Does the creation ex nihilo include every aspect of the cosmos, not just matter?
- Does a pre-existent creator imply other universes, or some similar notion?
