The Miracle of Modern Science is the first book that looks at the big miracles and catastrophe stories of the Bible and applies scientific methods to analyze them. In doing so, the author reveals the principle of regularity and non-repeatable exceptions. It’s a fascinating study of one of the most important subjects in religion.
History
The history of the miracle of modern science, according to scientists, is not the miracle itself. Rather it’s a logical, testable explanation for a natural phenomenon.
Miracles are an exception to the rule, but not to the rule of law. That rule is that science relies on repeatable events in the present. Those experiments that cannot be repeated, are given little validity.
Scientists have also found that a single miracle does not invalidate all laws. However, not all scientists are in agreement. Some insist that a single miracle would not invalidate all laws, and others assert that one miracle would be a sufficient exception.
Modern science has shown that the origin of the motion is incomprehensible. It has also shown that the origin of force is incomprehensible. As you might imagine, these discoveries have created a massive technological boom in the 19th and 20th centuries.
The principle of regularity
The principle of regularity is one of the rules that accountants follow when reporting. It is also part of GAAP, the set of accepted principles that accountants use. However, this principle has some critics.
Regularity Theory is an alternative to the Necessitarian account of physical laws. It claims that a proposition is a physical law if it meets five criteria.
These criteria include the following: the law must be conditional, it must be purely descriptive, and it must be free from specific universe terms. In addition, it must be a universal generalization. Hence, it cannot be limited to a particular place or a certain date.
In contrast to the Necessitarian account, Regularity Theory claims that there are no physical laws that are logically necessary. This is not to say that there are no physical laws. Instead, it means that we need to explain how the law applies.
Principle of non-repeatable exceptions
The principle of non-repeatable exceptions in modern science is a well-known topic of discussion. In a nutshell, the aforementioned acronym stands for the fact that scientific laws are a series of generalizations based on the observable behavior of nature. Notably, this is a thorny matter, as it is not a simple task to come up with a scientific theory of everything. That said, the challenge is to devise a scientific model of the universe that is robust enough to survive the entropy apocalypse. Thus, it is not uncommon to find a scientific theory akin to a sandbox. This is a situation where the more mundane functions of life are largely supplanted by the more experimental. It may be no coincidence that in the realm of the sciences, the scientific triumvirate of the Big Bang theory, Darwinian evolution, and the phylogenetic tree have a firm hold on the scientific community.
Biblical miracles as transgressions of law
There has been a recent debate on whether biblical miracles are transgressions of natural law in modern science. The first issue is the definition of a miracle. A miracle is an event not explicable by natural processes.
Miracles occur when supernatural intervention is involved. It is an event that breaks the uniformity of nature and exceeds the limits of human knowledge of natural law.
In the apologetic context, a miracle is an event that serves as an evidence for the truth of revelation. It can be a source of spiritual truth, or it can strengthen the faith of witnesses.
According to St. Thomas Aquinas, a miracle is not a violation of nature, but rather a violation of an unknown natural law. However, the concept of miracle as a violation of natural law is problematic, as some philosophers have argued that it is paradoxical.
Scientific studies of the big miracles and catastrophe stories of the Bible
If you are a believer, you are probably aware of the miracles and catastrophe stories of the Bible. Some of the disasters mentioned in the bible have become household names. The big question is whether or not the claims of divine intervention are factual.
This chapter will look at some of the more credible claims and compare them to the real thing. We’ll also see what the Bible has to say about these calamities.
The Miracle of Modern Science: The most important thing to remember about the miracles and catastrophe stories of the bible is that they are not literal, but they are very real. They are a part of human history, and the people who embraced them lived to tell the tale. In fact, some of these stories have become household names in many parts of the world.
