Draggingtree Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 American Thinker: December 25, 2015 Yes Virginia...By Thomas P. Sheahen The Bible says “God so loved the world that He sent His only-begotten Son …” But my astronomer friends say that with the universe as old and as vast as it is, there is no way God could care about our dinky little planet going around a minor star in an ordinary galaxy. Can God possible care about people like me? Virginia, your learned friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge. Some readers may recognize the above words from an editorial in the New York Sun, written in 1897 by Francis Church. But after a century of astonishing advances in science, of tremendous theories beyond anyone’s imagination back then, these words are equally true today.
