I’m pretty sure God did not intend for an atom to be split. But we did it and look what happened.
Perhaps it was the intent behind the splitting of the atom. Turning that knowledge into nuclear weapons of mass destruction accomplished nothing positive. Nuclear power stations are an excuse to produce plutonium for the manufacture of weapons. Otherwise its just an expensive way to boil water to produce power.....not to mention the aftermath when reactors explode....
Clever science at its finest.
Do scientists try to mess with things that shouldn’t be messed with? I mean cloning a human, how do you they figure that can work?
Cloning only produces a "look-alike". Even identical twins who share the same DNA have different personalities. You can clone a body but not a person. Each is unique.
In my opinion God is the only One who can create life.
I agree, but science did not create life, they simply manipulated it. They have no idea what created life and it galls them. How can you get rid of God as the Creator of life if you can't scientifically prove how it happened accidentally?
I believe in the soul. How can a soul be cloned. I picture a twisted messed mass of cells tissue devoid of a conscience or soul that has no moral compass or sense of right or wrong. Scary...super soldiers? Thoughts?
If you understand the word "soul" as it is defined in scripture, it is a "living breathing creature"...the words in Hebrew and Greek, never mean a disembodied spirit. Therefore man
is a soul...he doesn't
have one.
If you read Genesis 2:7 you will see that Adam "became" a soul when God started him breathing. As long as living things breathe, they are rightly described as "souls" in the Bible. Animals are called "souls" as well.
As for the moral compass and no sense of right or wrong, one only has to look at conditioned, highly trained (brainwashed) soldiers or police enforcers who will commit atrocities at the command of other humans in a combat situation. These already exist...you don't need to worry about clones. The ones who already exist are scary enough. Where is the conscience of someone who can wipe out an entire village with women and children by dropping a bomb with the press of a button? Or firing a missile at a house knowing that innocent children will die as mere "collateral damage".
It is the complete disregard for the sanctity of life that creates these monsters, schooled from infancy in godless thinking. Yet, conversely when you couple that with religious zeal, and you have a recipe for everything we fear. That makes one a righteous soldier of God. For Christians there can be no such thing. His army put their weapons down 2,000 years ago. We are to be "peacemakers"...not merely 'peacekeepers'.
We need to understand what went wrong in the beginning, and how God is allowing humans to 'reap what they have sown'....he will fix it all in "the end times".....fast approaching its conclusion, by the look of things.
