“Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.” Genesis 2:1.
For anyone following the debate of science versus religion, a barrier appears in the arguments. People walk away from the debate with the feeling that Science and Christianity are mutually exclusive, that is, one cannot exist because of the other.
However, a barrier’s purpose is to divide, and humans are prone to jump on one side or another to eliminate confusion. People want to be clear about their position, and when you can see both sides you are labeled as someone who cannot make a decision.
In our society, this is seen over and over. There is Pro-Life and Pro-Choice, Republican and Democrat, black and white, welfare and wealthy.
