Religion or Science Which is right?

Review of Material from Last Week What does habitable mean? Why is the earth habitable? What is pressure? om/tallest-mountain-deepest- ocean-ff/ om/tallest-mountain-deepest- ocean-ff/

Is it religion vs. science? What is religion? What is science? What is the aim of each of them?

You can believe in both! Religion is about: –Belief –Faith in something larger than ourselves –Doing the right thing as best as we are able

You can believe in both! Science is about: –Understanding how materials are put together (atoms to zebras) and how they work (amplification of sound to yawns) –Learning by using the scientific method Observations, ideas, trying ideas out, developing scientific experiments to see if you were right, getting results, drawing conclusions –Changing conclusions if new or more data changes results

Both can coexist. Pale blue dot Dh78Ihttp:// Dh78I How does that make you feel about being on earth?

How was our earth made? (Bible) Bible – Genesis King James Bible The Beginning (John 1:1-5)John 1:1-5 1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.12 The First Day: Light 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.345 The Second Day: Firmament 6And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.678

How was our earth made? (Bible) The Third Day: Dry Ground 9And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 11And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 12And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 13And the evening and the morning were the third day The Fourth Day: Sun, Moon, Stars 14And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19And the evening and the morning were the fourth day

How was our earth made? (Bible) The Fifth Day: Fish and Birds 20And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. 21And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 22And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. 23And the evening and the morning were the fifth day The Sixth Day: Creatures on Land 24And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. 25And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.2425

How was our earth made? (Bible) 26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. 29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. 30And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. 31And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.

What does this mean to you?

13 What is Science? There is a scientific thinking process, which any person might use, and… There is a process by which scientists develop, conduct and publish the results of experiments they do, and… There is the science of analyzing evidence, which may be from experiments or from the natural world and can be done by anyone.

14 How would a scientist analyze and publish conclusions based on observing evidence?

15 Science by Evaluating Evidence Scientific process of evaluating evidence: –making observations, –collecting evidence, using logic based on current knowledge, –and developing hypothesis which are then validated (or invalidated) by more evidence collected by yourself and other scientists.

This can be done by: Designing a way to get evidence through experimentation, in the lab or outside, Or in some cases by examining evidence (for example, in situations where precise experimentation is not possible such as to validate long-term evolution). An example of this is the discovery of gravity waves from the earliest days of the universe. 16

Can you think up an experiment to tell you if Snowball really CAN dance to the beat?

What is your initial observation about Snowball that tells you he’s interesting? What would an experiment need to make it valid? –A hypothesis that you can design your experiment from. –Control(s) –Variable(s) –Replicates What do you want to test to determine if your hypothesis holds up or is incorrect? What would your experiment be? (How is your test designed?)

One Arguable Scientists’ Version of How the Earth Was Formed (We Weren’t There) VAcjkhttp:// VAcjk What do you think the scientists here might have gotten directly by experiment? What might they have gotten by observing evidence of the past?

Things to note: How was it formed? How long ago? Was it habitable by humans? What are some of the stages it went through?

Why is the earth’s core so hot? There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and accreted, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements. hy-is-the-earths-core-so/ hy-is-the-earths-core-so/

Ice ages When have Ice Ages occurred? Many glacial advances and retreats have occurred during the last billion years of Earth history. These glaciations are not randomly distributed in time.Instead, they are concentrated into four time intervals. –late Proterozoic (between about800 and 600 million years ago), –during the Pennsylvanian and Permian (between about 350 and 250 million years ago), –and the late Neogene toQuaternary (the last 4 million years). –Somewhat less extensive glaciations occurred during portions of the Ordovician and Silurian (between about 460 and 430 million years ago).

Ice Age Periods –late Proterozoic (between about 800 and 600 million years ago), –during the Pennsylvanian and Permian (between about 350 and 250 million years ago), –and the late Neogene toQuaternary (the last 4 million years). –Somewhat less extensive glaciations occurred during portions of the Ordovician and Silurian (between about 460 and 430 million years ago).

Ice Age Periods During each of these intervals, many glacial advances and retreats occurred. For example, over 60 glacial advances and retreats have occurred during the last 2 million years. If "ice age" is used to refer to long, generally cool, intervals during which glaciers advance and retreat, we are still in one today. Our modern climate represents a very short, warm period between glacial advances. hen_ice_ages.htmlhttp:// hen_ice_ages.html
