Thomas Jefferson believed in an existing judgmental God which punished nations for their sins. We know this from private letters where he expressed concern God would punish America for slavery. "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever." Thomas Jefferson ------------------------------- It's incredible that you are so full of science talk when it comes to supporting your ID theory, but you refuse to apply it to the Christian theory.... ie you have no credibility. Yes, I do see scientific discoveries of the past century supporting the design idea. But how would I or anyone apply science to Christianity? We can't put God or Jesus under a microscope, perform experiments on them in the laboratory, send probes to explore the spiritual realm, catalogue the inhabitants .... All we can do is look at his handiwork and reason. Some say we can explore phenomema like NDE's, the placebo effect, and psychic phenonema for evidence there is more going on than pure materialism. Am part way through a book on the subject now. books.google.com ------------------------------ Do you know what the periodic table is?? The periodic table of elements - molecular weights, numbers of protons, electrons, etc. Yeah, I took chem in HS and college too. I figure I know as much as you easily. When was it first perceived?? Don't know the history and am not going to bother looking it up. We've added elements within the past century. What does this have to do with the issues under discussion?
