People tell me that religion is not compatible with faith and the Bible is just myth. I love science. I got hooked on science long before I came to know the Lord. I constantly read the latest science discoveries, especially in archaeology,\u00a0 and it only strengthens my faith. The theory of evolution is based on Charles Darwin\u2019s research in the mid-1800\u2019s but evidence shows that even Charles Darwin began to doubt his theory before he died.\u00a0 Discoveries since then have only further undermined the theory of evolution and proved the Bible. I am amazed how scientists puzzle over questions that don\u2019t seem to have any answers when the Bible has already answered their questions. Scientists can\u2019t figure out how ancient Egyptians and Inca could cut and move blocks of granite weighing 80 to 100 tons or more using only copper tools. Both Egyptian and Inca buildings show that they actually built on older structures that predate them. The difference between their building and the former building is like the difference between a child building a pyramid with toy blocks and an engineer building one today. In addition, the earlier blocks are cut with such precision that you can\u2019t slide a piece of paper between them. We don\u2019t have any technology that can do that today. The Bible offers a simple solution. The flood wiped out everything before it and only Noah and his family were saved. If nuclear war wiped out all of North America, Europe, Russia, China, and Japan, all that would be left would be Africa and South America and they do not have the knowledge and technology of the industrialized world. If any libraries or scientists survived, they might be able to eventually recreate modern technology but if no libraries or scientists survived, it could take centuries to rediscover them. Some claim it was Martians that built them but it could be that civilization was very advanced before the flood. If they could build the Tower of Babel, they had to be fairly advanced but it was all lost in the flood.\u00a0 Noah might have been from a back-woods area and had very limited\u00a0 knowledge. He only brought what knowledge he had and there were no surviving libraries. It is possible God saw the danger in great knowledge and chose to destroy it.<\/p>\n
