God of the Voids and the Story of my God

      I have recently been made aware that my discussion on homochirality boils down to a God of the gaps argument. For anyone who is unaware of this concept, a God of the gaps argument is one which claims that the gaps in our knowledge necessitate God to fill them. When science cannot explain something, a God of the gaps argument claims that because God can explain it, God must exist. The opposing side says that as science grows, we will fill these gaps, erasing the need for a God to stuff in the cracks.       I believe there is a misconception that all people who use God of the gaps arguments argue that God will fill all gaps we have and that if these gaps get filled we will be left with no need for God. I propose a new theory which I will title God of the voids theory.       My argument relies on the belief that no matter how much science we do, there will be things we can never ever explain. Why does the strong nuclear force sit...

Homochirality: Evidence of a Common Ancestor or Design?

             The existence of homochirality has long been a mystery within evolution, and scientists have spent much time developing models for its formation. Homochirality has often been brought up by creationists as irrefutable evidence against evolution, but the many studies to develop models for the formation of homochirality bring to question how refutable the evidence truly is. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 says, “Test everything; hold fast what is good.” I believe my fellow Christian scientists and I have a responsibility to test the theories presented by our evolutionist peers while holding firm to our faith in Christ. One article by Michele Fiore in 2025 describes the homochirality issue as “one of the most compelling and unresolved mysteries in the study of life’s origins”. 3 As such, it is an important issue for us to evaluate as Christians. To better evaluate whether abiogenesis, the formation of life from nonliving matter, is supported or challeng...
