The historical element of unique events is just as important, if not more so, than the laws of nature, which are generalizations of experimental data, that are used to analyze these unique events.

Subject: [asa] Dinosaurs and God

It is generally agreed that a meteorite (sometimes denied and replace by climatic change due to several factors) have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. We can say that the dinosaur have disappear due to natural phenomena and not directly by the mechanism of evolution. We know too that the extinction of the dinosaurs have let the place for hominid to evolve and let the human race arise. How to reconcile these facts with the belief in God? Was this great extinction intended by God directly or was it just a random natural phenomena? Was this extinction predicted by God in His Omniscience when He chose mechanism of evolution? I have got many questions on this subject...

Your help, advices and opinions on this would be greatly appreciate! Many thanks in advance!

Blessings,

Johan
