George Somsel:
Random fact that gives others a glimpse into who your are:  If we confess that God is the creator of the universe who establishes its laws then no investigation of these laws can be dependent upon some pre-conceived paradigm.  This leads to the conclusion that the "Big Bang" or evolution cannot be ruled out ahead of time due to theological dogma.  Biblical exegesis must precede systematization which must be dependent on the results of biblical theology.

You just could not resist writing this GeorgeBig Smile. I don't intend to hijack this thread but how can biblical exegesis or biblical theology prove the Big Bang/ Evolution, that is the domain of Science! I would say science is informing your exegesis not the other way round. Wink

George Somsel:
Occupation: semi-retired

Semi-retired at 38?Stick out tongue I think I should think of living in the US.
