Open Question: Do you think that intelligent life on Earth came from an Intelligent life source ?
Admire the Design; Learn About the Designer
YOU have probably heard of the Italian painter and sculptor Michelangelo. Though you may never have seen the original of any of his masterpieces, you most likely agree with the art historian who called the Italian genius a “marvellous and incomparable artist.” Michelangelo’s talents cannot be denied. Who would try to separate appreciation for Michelangelo’s art from acknowledgment of him as an outstanding artist?
Now think of the mind-boggling complexity and diversity of life that thrives around us on earth. Appropriately, The New York Times quoted one professor of biological sciences as stating: “The physical marks of design are visible in aspects of biology.” He added: “Life overwhelms us with the appearance of design.” Is it intellectually honest to admire the design without acknowledging the designer?
The apostle Paul, a keen observer of things around him, spoke of those who “honoured and served the creature more than him who had created it.” (Romans 1:25, Darby) Affected by pervasive evolutionary ideas, some refuse or fail to recognize that design certainly points to a designer. But does the theory of evolution represent true science at its best? Note the conclusion that Christoph Schönborn, Catholic archbishop of Vienna, presented in The New York Times: “Any system of thought that denies or seeks to explain away the overwhelming evidence for design in biology is ideology, not science.”

Purdue University Ceramics
 | www.cla.purdue.edu The Ceramic art courses at Purdue are intended to build a solid technical foundation in craftsmanship and the handling of the material. Traditional throwing and hand-building techniques are taught in the beginning classes, followed by glaze-making, mold making and slip casting. As the student progresses to the upper level classes it expected that the student's intellectual ideas, in keeping with a post-modern and multi-discipline art world, will drive the student to transcend the medium and its perceived boundaries. The traditions and history of ceramics are referenced and embraced even as students are encouraged to master and include other disciplines, in order to expand their ability to use the ceramic medium as a fine arts discipline. www.cla.purdue.edu | Views: 0  0 ratings |
