Revelation 3:20
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with them, and they with me.

1 Corinthians
1:19
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

4:20
For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

If there was no God, there would be no soul, no afterlife, no real love, hate, good, evil or crime itself because all these have no scientific meanings. Morality would be no more than an illusion of opinion and self-awareness and consciousness as an individual with freewill without a soul would be no more than biological chemical delusions. No one can claim some reasoning in an obligation to follow any moralities as a value system via science nor can random gifting in natural selection and equality coincide, to accept one is to reject the other. How can evolution bring a value of moralities and equality into mankind via natural selection, a non-equality process without being created with intent? How can such evolutionary processes create notions by random chance and biology alone then have some claim as to an obligation to follow such feelings in moralities by only existing by dumb luck?

Here is the Truth; Only humanity has ate of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. Science fails to explain the need in mankind for such moral philosophy or why the moral logic of good vs evil dominates laws of man and the science of things such as evolution are ignored. Animals have no moral expectations even if science claims humans as just another evolved animal. Laws within mankind do not make murder wrong but only enforce the fact that murder is wrong. Science can try to discover what we are but never inform us of who we are. Are we made in God's image or evolution's freak of nature? This is the question one should ask contemplating all of the above! ~ God Bless!!!

To Atheists in regard to "EMPATHY";
Where is the evidence in science that biological chemical reactions to lust, greed and hate should never be greater than ones empathy? Where is the claim in science that ones empathy in not stealing should outweigh ones greed in stealing? Why give more credence to "empathy" over hate, lust and greed? What gives you a right for you to force your moral convictions on someone else via some obligation to heed your "empathy" over all other forms of emotions and feelings? In doing this how are you not doing the very same as you claim religion is doing? What makes empathy in not stealing good but hate in murder evil? Is your claim that anyone that does not have empathy that outweighs hate is less human? How was Hitler evil? Why would the society that Hitler wanted not have been efficient or worked worldwide as a sound, stable society? How is not any given credence in moral conviction not brain washing regardless if from the science biological chemical reactions in the brain or from religion or society? If morality is in any way subjective via ones empathy how is this subjectivity alone not the root cause of what we call "evil or good"? How is religion more than just a tool of understanding of this subjective morality? How can religion be "evil" if there is no true evil? Are there moral truths or only moral subjective concepts? If only concepts how do you judge one just and good and the other not? How is one morally wrong if all are only subjective concepts with no truths in things like murder of a child for fun is wrong? Is slavery objectively wrong and inherently evil? I say slavery inherently evil objectively as a truth but how can you make that claim with your world-view in that morality comes from only ones subjective empathy?

The Truth about empathy; If I have to think about how bad it would be if I was hit with a baseball bat in order to not hit others with a baseball bat I have only justified my action in not hitting others with a baseball bat with only self concern and self interest. Empathy is not some great catalyst of brotherhood kindness in mankind. Empathy is only making a judgment weighing ones self interest first in order not to do bad to others. Love is the only emotion that has no such self interest in the weighing. For me the teachings of Jesus as in; turn the cheek, he without sin cast the first stone and love your enemy are truths in this. I don't do good because the Bible tells me to, I don't do good for God, I don't do good out of empathy for others and I don't do good out of self concern or self interest; I do good for the logic and love within goodness alone. I don't need self justification, merit or reward to do good nor do I need proof in good vs. evil to clearly see that good is right is just. Love is my catalyst for doing good alone. This is why Christians chose to do good!!!

Turning the concept of science on its head!!!

Science itself is dogmatic by solely relying on the limited five human senses in its observations alone. It not only can't answer truths in human morality, justice, emotions & ones self awareness as an individual with free-will; it discounts all of these carte blanc as mere biochemical illusions via this limited view. If bacteria had it's own logic & reason then used the scientific method how would they perceive the same world we live in with their senses, would we be mindless to them? Science is just as presumptuous a human proposition to a truth seeking method and just as dogmatic and limited as a false religion. Science is only a sub-set of human philosophy but it's proposition as the sole truth mechanism discounts the very notion of truth in humanity and philosophy as no more than biochemical illusory. In this regard philosophy has birthed a god called science which has proved it's own mother a myth! Science can try to discover what we are within humans very limited view via these five senses but it can never inform us of who we are. Are we made in God's image or evolution's freak of nature? It is self-evident that who we are as mankind is God's intent and will and not the science of man's reasoning without heeding one's soul to judge!

Romans 1:20-22
~ For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools,..~
