And science does rule the Earth - feel free to post up some aspects of it for testing.- Earth's Magnetic Field - Electromagnetism and compasses
- The structure of the Earth - Analysis of Seismic Waves
- Origin of the Earth - Likely to be the big bang deduced from cosmic radiation and the Doppler Effect
- Life today - Evolution by Natural Selection
- Hurricanes - Low pressure and high seas combined with Coriolis Effect
- Floods - Water levels are too high for the river/stream/sea

I believe that what Holly is trying to say is why couldn't it be God making the 'causes' happen and work so that the 'effect' happens. God isn't going to jump out and say, "It's me, it's me!"
Why does an earthquake happen? Well, we all know that it happens because plates beneath the earth's surface shift. There, somewhere along the lines, is an initial cause that begins the whole process of an earthquake. Why is it that 'cause', whatever it may be (I don't know, I'm not a geologist), can't have a 'cause' behind it as well that we humans aren't fully able to comprehend. Why can't it be God to begin the cycle of things like that?
Science can explain a lot of things, but the science has to begin somewhere.
Edit- What if God doesn't
want us to have any proof of his existence because of the fact that he wants Christianity to be solely based on faith. I'm sure that if there is a god, he's going to know pretty well how to cover all of his tracks. If he doesn't want humans to have scientific evidence that he exists, trust me, they're not going to.
