Why Pure Science Is Not Enough
Unlike pure science we can pre-state the way the world evolves, and we can also predict it as well. The natural laws, for us, are sufficient to describe the pattern of evolution, natural selection is not even lawless, and God is more than merely the “creativity” of the universe. We can even suggest what causes the Kosmos to evolve.
We do still need the agent God, and He can still be a fully natural God. The material evolves to Godhood.
Reason and science are important, but they remain insufficient. We need to use emotion, intuition, imagination, and yes, revelation and oracles to understand the Kosmos. And courage, too, is vital, because the universe does evolve in a linear way, with reversals and turns as well, but this means there is a higher and a lower order of complexity and consciousness, which may not fit politically correct versions of an egalitarian world; scientists and humanists in general have been inexcusably weak (biased) in this area.
