Science and History in Romans
- The existence and nature of God are self-evident. 1:20
- The Religious Right often uses Romans 1:21-25 to condemn environmentalists. 1:21-25
- Paul claims that before Adam sinned death did not exist. But, of course, death didn't enter the world
a few thousand years ago because of Adam's sin. Death has been a part of life since life first arose
(on this planet, at least) a few billion years ago. 5:12
- "The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now."
Some Christians use this verse to show that we live in a
sin cursed world. (But
others disagree.) 8:22
- Paul says that everyone, even in his day, had the gospel preached to them. Even the Native Americans, Asians,
Pacific Islanders? 10:18
