The ...Jeff, I've made reference to Dutch twice. The first was in a post talking about how to find truth in an increasingly secular world. In that post, I said the following:<br /><br />"There is a YouTube man named DutchSinse who regularly posts information concerning weather, earthquakes, and volcanic activity. I've listened to him and I find that his approach is careful, measured, and best of all, he shows how he arrives at his conclusions. He doesn't make outrageous claims but instead puts forth conclusions reasonably based on what he sees from the data."<br /><br />The point of the post is that no matter from whence a person gets their information (except the bible) take an approach to it that uses your critical faculties. I like when people LIKE Dutchsinse show how they arrive at conclusions. From there, I use my critical faculties to determine if I want to believe the information, or not. It was a post about methodology of discerning secular truths. Dutch's methodology is good, and I praise that, however, it is up to each individual to decide if the information itself is believable.<br /><br />As for being man made or not, Jeff, I believe that everything that happens is ultimately caused by or allowed by God. But some things are from man. Quakes that result from fracking are man-made, for instance. Ultimately if the frackers become too greedy or too careless, there might be a quake, and one could say that it was both man-made and a result of sin, but allowed by God to happen.Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-5421192628007848312011-11-06T13:27:03.353-05:002011-11-06T13:27:03.353-05:00Elizabeth, I know that you have talked about and m...Elizabeth, I know that you have talked about and made reference to Dutchsinse on your post and today he made a report on these quakes in Oklahoma and he said that they were definitely man made. I commented that there was no way for him to know that and there isn't really. I , again would like to say that his post's are unreliable.Now I see that information that you have passed along say's that it is not man made with which I would have to agree. The only way that man can take responsibility for is that fact that sin has effected the world and it came through Adam.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171219693651832856noreply@blogger.com
