Hubble’s Theft and Other Scientific Inaccuracies | Stars, Cells, and God #ChristianApologetics #ReasonsToBelieve #ScientificMethod #ScientificResearch #MaryPatriotNews [Video]

Join Jeff Zweerink and David Block as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God’s existence.Hubble’s Theft & Other Scientific Inaccuracies The data showing the expansion of the universe is usually referred to as Hubble’s law. However, historical studies show that astronomer Edwin Hubble used others’ research without proper attribution in writing his paper on the subject in 1929. In 2018, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) officially voted to rename it the Hubble-Lemaître law since astronomer Georges Lemaître published a paper on the same subject in 1927, two years before Hubble. We will discuss the implications and apologetic value of this development as well as other common science/faith related misconceptions.References:Elizabeth Gibney, “Belgian Priest Recognized in Hubble-Law Name Change,” https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-07234-y IAU1812 Press Release, “IAU Members Vote to Recommend Renaming the Hubble Law as the Hubble-Lemaître Law,” https://www.iau.org/news/pressreleases/detail/iau1812/Help us create even more empowering resources!Support Reasons to Believe at: https://support.reasons.org/donate-now?source=OLYOUTUBEFollow RTB_Official for updates!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RTBofficialTwitter: https://twitter.com/RTB_officialInstagram: http://instagram.com/rtb_officialWebsite: http://www.reasons.org

Viruses Fuel the Carbon Cycle and Digital Health | Stars, Cells, and God #ChristianApologetics #ReasonsToBelieve #ScientificMethod #ScientificResearch #MaryPatriotNews [Video]

Episode Description:Join Hugh Ross and James Patterson, MD, as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God’s existence.Viruses Fuel the Carbon Cycle (Hugh Ross)A recent study shows that DNA and RNA viruses in the oceans play a crucial role in the ocean carbon flux cycle. Additionally, they play significant roles in the sulfur, nitrogen, and deep ocean cycles. Viruses deposit huge amounts of carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen on an ongoing basis onto the ocean floors. Once there, subducting plates move these elements into Earth’s mantle. Without this process, advanced life wouldn’t be possible. These huge deposits require that ocean viruses be extremely abundant and diverse and that they be specifically designed in a variety of ways so that advanced life can thrive.References: Guillermo Dominguez-Huerta et al., “Diversity and Ecological Footprint of Global Ocean RNA Viruses,” https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abn6358Digital Health (James Patterson)In a world that is now more connected than ever in a digital sense, it seems that humans are becoming more and more disconnected. We’ve all seen it—a room full of people, all staring at their smartphones. Why is that? Why are more people depressed and suicidal now than ever before? What can we do to promote healthy living in a digitally connected society?
