Are Some Really That Ignorant About God Or Do They Just Don't Want To know?

How did all this come about? Some scientists claim they don't know. We Believers in Christ know. It's Obvious where it all came from. Yet, those scientists intend to reject the obvious answer to the question and go with what they think will be the answer to this question. Why? What sanely reason, if any, do they have that will support their decision to reject the obvious answer to that question?

18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:18-20

So, they do know the obvious answer but they choose to reject it being that it doesn't fit to their agenda of disbelieving in God. It is clear that they have rejected the Truth of God for the lie of Satan. They need Jesus bad.

There are no fixed points, so inventing one is merely self-deception. Of course, there's a strong human propensity towards that very thing... as the OP has shown.

Of course, there is no fixed point. Everything is relative. It is not self-deception. It is mathematics. This is how we navigate.

@sree251 Any fixed point is merely arbitrary, but in earlier times the doctrine was that the Earth is the fixed point. That reflected religion's anthropocentric view of the universe... obviously it's all for us, it's all about us, we alone matter, and everything else is inconsequential.

That is a practical doctrine considering it is the ground we stand on. It serves no purpose to regard the Sun as the fixed point and we are riding on a rotating ball that is revolving around the Sun.

Of course, we alone matter. We are the only thing that exist. We encompass everything we perceive.

@sree251 and so the 'obvious' isn't

Not to me. What is common sense to everyone may neither be common nor sense.
