“The dice are cast into the lap but every result is from the Lord”

Maybe you should brush up on your theology.


A single verse from the Book of Proverbs does not a theology make.

Bsides, you're missing the point here: Either God needs to constantly intervene in the universe he created OR God is a lot smarter than creationists can imagine and in control of events we perceive as random.

Yes, but that single passage casts into ruins the elaborate theology creationists have built up about randomness being the opposite of under the direction of God.

God is in control of random processes.

Currently stars are being created via nuclear fusion and gravity - are those stars not created by God?

The Bible tells me I was created “from dust” and “to dust” I will return. But I was also created through cellular processes involving DNA. Was my creation “from dust” less literal than the creation of Adam “from dust”?
