Your personal relationship with God is between you and God, but I do pray all will come to into the salvation of our Lord Jesus Christ. But as I said, its between you and God and turning to Christ is a personal decision, not one someone else makes for you. I look forward to discussing matters of science and the Bible with you guys as well as I am able.

The Bible doesnt teach us to be ignorant of the world and how it works as you said and I agree. But where i am I believe in God and therefore dont NEED evidence to prove his existance anymore. He's proved himself to me and i accepted him. So where im at I am studying God's word and becoming versed in that rather then becoming versed in evidence. Now that i know who God is and now that i have established a relationship with him. I want to grow in that relationship and get to know him better. Thats something i dont think evidence to support God's existance can much help with.
Now im not saying you should only study the Bible because i believe God uses the knowledge we have of things to teach others and stuff. But where im at I need to learn more about Christ and grow specifically in my knowledge of him. So thats where im at.
