Being Irked:
John Adams, the 2nd president of the United States, had noted that when people learn of something that is the opposite of what they have been taught and believed to be true, they get ‘irked.’
Example, if one was raised with the standard and only Biblical belief that the world was formed and shaped up in six 24 hour days, to deny it was heresy.
One of the many things we proved in this book project is that with the use of the etymological derivate translations and use of Biblical Hebrew words as per their meaning over 3000 years ago, we get a translation that proves the world was not formed in 6-24 hour days but rather in six periods each of which were countless millions of years.
That finding alone had ‘irked’ many a religious leader of both the Christian and Jewish faiths, but yet some of them ‘whisper’ wishes of ‘good luck’ to us as they are fearful of appearing to break ranks with their hierarchy.
Benifits:
The ramifications of having proved science and religion are in sync are myriad.
Thomas Jefferson had reasoned that the problem with organized religion is that it calls for blind faith and what is really needed to draw people to the Bible is a rationale for belief.
1- Our book project proves that science and the story of creation are in sync and thus provides that rationale.
2- That sync proves that only a Supreme Power could have issued the Bible to Moses and therefore now the Bible must be taken seriously.
3- Two chapters of the book deal with the rights of Jews to the land of Israel and now there could be no question that God’s dictates have to be taken seriously. (The Koran of the Muslims also calls for the Israelites to have the Promised Land.)
4- School board battles between creationism and evolution should end. The Bible’s chronology of events are the same as that of science, life is proved to have begun in the oceans, evolution takes place but within each species (man did not evolve from the apes), women are the equal of men.
5- The brotherhood of man can now have new definition.
6- Atheists and agnostics are left defenseless.
