Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling The Truth About Numbers! MATH Boy: PI is 3.14159...and the numbers never stop! Girl: Math is so HARD! It doesn't make sense! Man: That's because it's NOT TRUE! Boy: But it's all right here in my MATH BOOK, mister! Man: That book is full of secular lies. Here's the only "math" book you'll ever need! Boy: A BIBLE? HOLY BIBLE Man: It says right here that PI equals THREE! Simple and neat! Just like God's plan! Boy: I can dig that! 1 KINGS 7:23-26 Girl: But math is still confusing! All that ADDING! Man: It's ARROGANT for some ACADEMIC to think his ideas about arithmetic are better than God's! For example, the BIBLE says - 30 1,000 29 30 410 + 1,000 = 5,469 Numbers add up to what God WANTS them to add up to! Ezra 1:7-11 Boy: Gosh! The Bible has the truth about numbers! Girl: THIS is full of the lies of atheists and humanists! Man: Exactly! Our SCHOOLS must STOP TEACHING this THEORY of math, and just tell the true story of numbers from the Bible! And then we'll live in the world God wants us to! THE END
..as a Christian I accuse the cartoonist of fudging the Bible numbers almost as well as the Bible fudges them.For example,history is not current.The writings of thousands of years ago do not exactly translate correctly even when translated correctly.Ancient writings sometimes used larger numbers then real to emphasize importance(not that we ever do anything like that).Also,all didn’t always mean all of everything(just like it depends on what the defination of ‘is’ is).The Bible is a tool.I consider it the living breathing word of God.That being said,I don’t think that Bible should be taught as an alternative to science.The world of science is nothing but the acquisition of knowledge.In my opinion,being Christian doesn’t mean becoming stupidly blind to facts because the religious overlords tell us it is so.Just the opposite.We are supposed to seek knowledge.As things are now,both the scientists and the Christian right seem both to think the same thing:That science will somehow disprove the existence of God.I say,hold on.(This is me speaking,not necessarily you)I say,come on science,bring it on.Be all the science you can be.Be anti-reigion.Be for religion.Do blind taste tests.Show me how it all works.Teach science!Make science better.Make life better via science
Because,in my opinion~as a Christian`maybe not in my lifetime,nor my great grand kid’s,I believe science will have no choice but to prove the existence of God….
