Dear Christians.

I was following one of many threads on some sites I visit. When you rail and rant against Science without knowing what you’re talking about, Lying about the science, or just plain acting nuts, you’re not doing the Gospel of Christ any good, infact you’re doing more damage than imaginable.
It’s actually quite sad to see the garbage some of you post, the conspiratorial ravings of some of the posters is scary, and some of you really need to seek professional help, as your brains are damaged beyond all reason.
Reading a Quote by Saint Augustine.
If they find a Christian mistaken in a field which they themselves know well and hear him maintaining his foolish opinions about our books, how are they going to believe those books in matters concerning the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life, and the kingdom of heaven, when they think their pages are full of falsehoods on facts which they themselves have learnt from experience and the light of reason? Reckless and incompetent expounders of holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books.
And from the Bible itself, Isaiah 8:12-13 (NIV) “Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread.”
What are the odds?

I often hear of People talking about it must be a miracle because of the Odds of an event occurring,
or the Odds are so high that it can’t happen.
I don’t think people really understand that just because the “odds” are high that doesn’t mean that it can’t happen.
Example, what are the odds of you existing?
Well given that the (low estimate) sperm count of an average event is around 39,000,000
The Odds of that one event where your parents came together and created you is 1 in 39,000,000. If any other sperm fertilized the egg, you wouldn’t be you as it would have been a different DNA pattern.
Same for both of your parents (1 in 39,000,000) for each of them (1 in 1.521E+15)
And same for their parents (1 in 39,000,000) for each of them (all 4) (1 in 2.31344E+30)
And if we only go back 3 generations we’re up to 1 in 5.35201E+60.
And remember these are overly low, assuming only 1 attempt for each pregnancy, and that there wasn’t any chance of any of your ancestors meeting up with anyone else.
