Nobel Laureate Suggests Spirit!

Nobel Prize-winning scientist George Wald acknowledged a non-material aspect of life—consciousness—which he believed exists beyond space and time. His view challenged the materialistic foundation of evolution, leading to strong rejection from the scientific community. This response highlights how evolution functions more as a belief system than an open scientific inquiry.

Jonathan Cotton: Evolutionary scientists reject one of their own. Find out about it next on today's Creation Moments. And now, here's our Creation Moments host, Ian Taylor.

Ian Taylor: Many scientists have rejected the idea that man has a spirit, that we are more than simply material organisms. After all, they reason man evolved, but a non-material thing like a spirit cannot evolve. The 19th century promoters of evolution admitted that they had devised the idea of naturalistic evolution to get rid of the idea of a non-material spiritual dimension. And that's why it's noteworthy that in 1983 Nobel Prize winning scientist George Wald announced to the scientific community that he had found evidence of a non-material aspect to life. Wald called this non-material part of life consciousness and concluded that our consciousness exists outside of space and time.

Evolutionary scientists quickly treated Wald as a heretic. Suddenly evolutionists attacked one of their own with the same ferocity that they had previously reserved for creationists. They offered no argument against Dr. Wald's science. They simply refused to even look at his evidence because they just knew that he had the wrong conclusion. The lesson we learn from this is that evolution is a faith, a faith that competes with Christianity. Another lesson is that there is real scientific evidence that supports the Christian view of life and reality.
