Romans 1:20
“For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes, his eternal power and divinity, have been clearly seen, being understood through the things that are made; so that they are without excuse.”
The Apostle Paul, writing to believers in Rome, is making an argument about human knowledge of God. He suggests that everyone, regardless of their direct encounter with specific religious traditions, has access to some fundamental truths about God through observing the natural world around them.
What does this passage suggest about how our observations of the natural world, including scientific inquiry, shape our understanding of something beyond what we can empirically measure?
