I ndichithe iiveki ezimbalwa ndincokola nomntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo. Mhlawumbi akukho hlobo lomthambo lungcono lokwakha ukholo lwakho. Isizathu kukuba engekho ngqiqweni luphawu uqobo lwalo olungaphezulu kwendalo, kuba ukudideka kunye nokungaboni ngokwasemoyeni luphawu lwenkosana yobumnyama. Kukho iimfihlakalo umntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo angakwaziyo ukuzisombulula, imibuzo angayiphenduliyo, nemiba ethile yobomi bomntu nemvelaphi yendalo yonke engenakuchazwa yinzululwazi kuphela. Kodwa oku uya kukukhanyela ngokungawuhoyi lo mbandela, anciphise umbuzo okhoyo, okanye angahoyi izazinzulu eziphikisa isikhundla sakhe kwaye acaphule kuphela abo basenzayo. Ushiya amaninzi Izintsimbi ezibuhlungu emva “kokuqiqa” kwakhe.
INSIMBI YENZULULWAZI
Ngenxa yokuba umntu ongakholelwa kuThixo akavumeli nantoni na uThixo, inzululwazi ubukhulu becala iba “lunqulo” lwakhe. Oko kukuthi, unayo ukholo Ukuba iziseko zophando lwezenzululwazi okanye “indlela yobunzululwazi” ephuhliswe nguMhlekazi Francis Bacon (1561-1627) yinkqubo apho yonke imibuzo ephathekayo nebonakalayo engaphaya kwendalo iyakugqitywa ukuba ibe yimveliso yendalo. Inkqubo yesayensi, usenokuthi, "isithethe" sabangakholelwa kuThixo. Kodwa isigqebelo esibuhlungu kukuba ooyise abasungula isayensi yanamhlanje baphantse baba bonke amarhamente, kubandakanya iBacon:
Kuyinyani, ukuba intanda-bulumko encinci iyenza ingqondo yomntu ingakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo, kodwa ubunzulu kwifilosofi buzisa iingqondo zabantu malunga nenkolo; kuba ngelixesha ingqondo yomntu ijonga izizathu zesibini ezisasazekileyo, ngamanye amaxesha zinokuphumla kuzo, kwaye zingayi phambili; kodwa xa ibona ikhonkco labo lidityanisiwe, kwaye linxibelelene ngokudibeneyo, kufuneka libhabhe liye kwi-Providence nakuThixo. -USir Francis Bacon, Ukungakholelwa kuThixo
Andikadibani nomntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo onokuthi achaze indlela amadoda afana noBacon okanye uJohannes Kepler — owamisa imithetho yokuhamba kwelanga malunga nelanga; okanye uRobert Boyle-owasungula imithetho yeegesi; okanye uMichael Faraday — omsebenzi wakhe wombane kunye nemagnetism waguqula ifiziksi; okanye uGregor Mendel-owabeka isiseko semathematika yemfuza; okanye uWilliam Thomason Kelvin — owancedayo ekubekeni isiseko sefiziksi yale mihla; okanye uMax Planck-waziwa nge-quantum theory; okanye u-Albert Einstein-owaguqula indlela yokucinga kubudlelwane phakathi kwexesha, amandla omxhuzulane, kunye nokuguqulwa kwezinto kumandla… indlela la madoda akrelekrele ngayo, onke athambekele ekuhloleni umhlaba ngeelensi enononophelo, engqongqo nenenjongo usenokukholelwa kubukho bukaThixo. Singawathatha njani la madoda kunye neenkolelo zabo ukuba, kwelinye icala, bacingelwe ukuba banobukrelekrele, kwaye kwelinye icala, bazizidenge ngokupheleleyo kwaye baneentloni ngokuzithoba kwinkolelo yobuthixo? Imeko yentlalo? Ukuhlamba ingqondo? Ukulawulwa kwengqondo ngabafundisi? Ngokuqinisekileyo ezi ngqondo zidityaniswe ngokwenzululwazi bezinokuthi zivelise "ubuxoki" obukhulu njenge theism? Mhlawumbi u-Newton, u-Einstein amchaze njengo “krelekrele okrelekrele, ogqibe ikhondo le ngcinga yaseNtshona, uphando, kunye nokuziqhelanisa ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba lokuba kungabikho mntu ngaphambili ukusuka kwixesha lakhe elinokuchukumisa” unika ukuqonda okuncinci kwinto awayecinga ngayo nogxa wakhe:
Andazi ukuba ndinokuba njani na ehlabathini; kodwa kum kubonakala ngathi bendifana nje nenkwenkwana edlala elunxwemeni lolwandle, kwaye ndiziphambukisa ngoku ndize ndifumane ilitye eligudileyo okanye iqokobhe elilunge ngakumbi kunesiqhelo, ngelixa ulwandle olukhulu lwenyani lwalubekwe phambi kwam... UThixo oyinyaniso ngumntu ophilileyo, okrelekrele, nonamandla. Ubude bexesha lakhe lifikelela kunaphakade; Ubukho bakhe ukusuka kubunzulu obungapheliyo. Ulawula zonke izinto. -Izikhumbuzo zoBomi, iZibhalo, kunye nokuFunyanwa kukaSir Isaac Newton (1855) nguMhlekazi David Brewster (Umqulu II. Ch. 27); Inqununu, Uluhlu lwe sibini
Ngokukhawuleza, iyacaca. Into uNewton kunye neengqondo ezininzi zangaphambili kunye nezenzululwazi ezazinayo ukuba uninzi lwezazinzulu luswele namhlanje thobeka. Yayikukuthobeka kwabo, phofu, okwabenza bakwazi ukubona ngokucacileyo ukuba ukholo nengqiqo aziphikisani. Isimanga esibuhlungu kukuba ukufumanisa kwabo ngokwesayensi-abangakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo namhlanje—Zazaliswa nguThixo. Babenaye engqondweni xa babevula imilinganiselo emitsha yolwazi. Yayikukuthobeka okwabenza bakwazi "ukuva" izinto ezingenakubonwa ziingqondi ezininzi namhlanje.
Xa emamele umyalezo wendalo kunye nelizwi lesazela, umntu unokufika ngokuqinisekileyo ngobukho bukaThixo, unobangela kunye nesiphelo sayo yonke into. -IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika (CCC), n. I-46
U-Einstein wayemamele:
Ndifuna ukwazi ukuba uThixo ulidale njani eli hlabathi, andinamdla kule okanye kulento, kwibala lale nto. Ndifuna ukwazi iingcinga zaKhe, ezinye iinkcukacha. -URonald W. Clark, Ubomi kunye namaxesha ka-Einstein. ENew York: Inkampani yeHlabathi yokuPapasha, ngo-1971, iphe. 18-19
Mhlawumbi ayisiyonto eyenzekileyo ukuba njengoko la madoda ayesokola ukuzukisa uThixo, uThixo wawongwa ngokubuyisa isigqubuthelo kwakhona, ebanika ukuqonda okunzulu ngobuqili bendalo.
… Akunakubakho nakuphi na ukungangqinelani phakathi kokholo nengqiqo. Kuba lo Thixo utyhila iimfihlakalo kwaye angenise ukholo usinike ukukhanya kwesizathu kwingqondo yomntu, uThixo akanako ukuziphika, nenyaniso ayinakuze iphikisane nenyaniso… Umphandi othobekileyo nozingisayo weemfihlelo zendalo uyakhokelwa, ngokungathi kunjalo , Isandla sikaThixo naphezu koku, kuba nguThixo, umgcini wezinto zonke, ozenzileyo aziyiyo. -CCC, n. I-159
UKUJONGA ENYE INDLELA
Ukuba ukhe wathetha nomntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo, uyakufumanisa ukuba akukho bungqina bunokubakho bokubaqinisekisa ubukho bukaThixo, nangona besithi "bavulelekile" kuThixo ezibonisa. Kodwa ke, oko iCawa ikubiza ngokuba “bubungqina”…
… Imimangaliso kaKrestu nabangcwele, iziprofeto, ukukhula kwecawa nobungcwele bayo, nokuchuma kwayo nokuzinza kwayo. -CCC, n. 156
… Ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo “bubuqhetseba obungcwele.” Imimangaliso kaKristu kunye nabangcwele inokuchazwa ngokwendalo, batsho. Imimangaliso yale mihla yamathumba ayanyamalala ngephanyazo, ukungeva kweendlebe, ukubona kweemfama, nkqu nokuvuswa kwabafileyo? Akukho kwanto ingaphaya kwendalo apho. Ayinamsebenzi nokuba ilanga belinokudanisa esibhakabhakeni kwaye litshintshe imibala ngokuchaseneyo nemithetho yefiziks njengoko kwenzekile eFatima phambi kwama-80 000 amakomanisi, abagxeki, kunye noonondaba ... konke kuyachazeka, utsho ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo. Oko kuya kwimimangaliso ye-Ekaristi apho uMamkeli lowo ajikele khona intliziyo izihlunu okanye ukopha kakhulu. Ngummangaliso? Ukungaqheleki nje. Iziprofeto zakudala, ezinje ngamakhulu amane okanye u-Kristu azalisekisile kuKhe, ukufa nokuvuka kwakhe? Yenziwe. Ngaba iziprofeto ezingaqhelekanga zeNtombi Enyulu ezizalisekisiweyo, ezinje ngemibono eneenkcukacha kunye noqikelelo lokuxhela olunikwe ababoni babantwana baseKibeho ngaphambi kohlanga lwaseRwanda? Ngengozi. Ngaba yimizimba engenakonakala ekhupha ivumba elimnandi kwaye isilele ukubola emva kweenkulungwane? Iqhinga. Ukukhula kwecawe nobungcwele bayo, obutshintshe iYurophu nezinye izizwe? Imbali yobubhanxa. Ukuzinza kwakhe ukutyhubela iinkulungwane njengoko kwakuthenjisiwe nguKrestu kuMateyu 16, kwanakumahlazo amanyala okuziphatha kakubi ngokwesondo? Imbono yeMere. Amava, ubungqina kunye namangqina-nokuba ayazizigidi? Ukuba nemibono. Uqikelelo lweengqondo. Ukuzikhohlisa.
KuThixo ongakholelwayo kuye inyaniso ayithethi nto ngaphandle kokuba iphandwe kwaye yahlalutywa zizixhobo ezenziwe ngumntu ukuba isazinzulu sibeke ukholo njengeyona ndlela ichazayo yokwenyani.
Into emangazayo kukuba, umntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo uyakwazi ukungahoyi ukuba iingqondo ezininzi ezikrelekrele kwicandelo lezenzululwazi, kwezemfundo nakwezopolitiko namhlanje azikholelwa nje kuThixo, kodwa zininzi waguquka kubuKristu ku ukungakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo. Kukho uhlobo lokuzikhukhumeza kwengqondo apho umntu ongakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo azibona ngathi "uyazi" ngelixa zonke iingcali ziziingqondi zengqondo yabantu basehlathini abazotywe ngobuso babambelele kwiintsomi zamandulo. Sikholelwa nje kuba singakwazi ukucinga.
Kusikhumbuza amazwi kaYesu:
Ke ukuba abathanga bamamele uMoses nabaprofeti, abayi koyiseka, ukuba kuthe kwavuka bani kwabafileyo. (ULuka 16:31)
Ngaba sikho esinye isizathu sokuba abantu abangakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo bajonge kwelinye icala xa bejamelene nobungqina obungaphaya kwamandla emvelo? Omnye unokuthi sithetha ngeendawo ezinamandla zeedemon. Kodwa ayizizo zonke iidemon. Ngamanye amaxesha amadoda, anikwe isipho senkululeko yokuzikhethela, ayazingca okanye aneenkani. Kwaye ngamanye amaxesha, ubukho bukaThixo buphazamisa ngakumbi kunayo nayiphi na enye into. Umzukulwana kaThomas Huxley, owayesebenza noCharles Darwin, wathi:
Ndicinga ukuba isizathu sokuba sixhume kwimvelaphi yeentlobo kukuba ingcamango kaThixo yaphazamisa ukuziphatha kwethu ngokwesondo. -Umtshizi, NgoFebruwari 2010, Umqulu 19, No. 2, iphe. 40.
Unjingalwazi wefilosofi kwiYunivesithi yaseNew York, uThomas Nagel, uvakalisa uluvo oluqhelekileyo phakathi kwabo babambelela ngokungagungqiyo kwindaleko ngaphandle koThixo:
Ndifuna ukungakholelwa kuTixo kube yinyani kwaye ndiye ndangonwabi ngenxa yokuba abanye babona bantu bakrelekrele nabanolwazi kakhulu ndibazi ukuba bangamakholwa. Ayikuko nje ukuba andikholelwa kuThixo, kwaye, ngokwendalo, ndinethemba lokuba ndinyanisile kwinkolelo yam. Ndiyathemba ukuba akukho Thixo! Andifuni ukuba kubekho uThixo; Andifuni ukuba indalo iphelele. —Ibhidi.
Ekugqibeleni, ukunyaniseka okuhlaziyayo.
UKUPHIKA KWENYANISO
Usihlalo wangaphambili wendaleko kwiYunivesithi yaseLondon wabhala ukuba indaleko yamkelekile…
… Ayikuko kuba inokungqinwa ukuba iyinyani, kodwa kungenxa yokuba ekuphela kwento eyenziweyo, indalo ekhethekileyo, icacile. -DMS Watson, Umtshizi, NgoFebruwari 2010, Umqulu 19, No. 2, iphe. 40.
Nangona kunjalo, ngaphandle kokugxekwa ngokunyanisekileyo nangabaxhasi bendaleko, umhlobo wam ongakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo wabhala:
Ukuyikhanyela into yokuba izinto zazivelela yinto yokwala imbali ngokufanayo kwabo bakhanyelayo.
Ukuba isayensi "yinkolo" yokungakholelwa kuThixo, ngendaleko yenye yeevangeli zayo. Kodwa isigqebelo esibuhlungu sesokuba oososayensi abaninzi ngokwendaleko ngokwabo bayavuma ukuba akukho kuqiniseka malunga nokuba iseli yokuqala ephilayo yadalwa njani singasathethi ke ngeebhloko zokuqala zokwakha, nokuba kwaqalwa njani “iBang Bang”.
Imithetho ye-thermodynamic ithi isambuku semicimbi kunye namandla sihlala sihleli. Akunakwenzeka ukwenza umba ngaphandle kokuchitha amandla okanye into; ngokufanayo akunakwenzeka ukudala amandla ngaphandle kokuchitha umba okanye amandla. Umthetho wesibini we-thermodynamics uthi i-entropy iyonke iyanda; Indalo iphela kufuneka isuke kulungelelwaniso isiya kwingxaki. Le mithetho-siseko ikhokelela kwisigqibo sokuba ezinye izinto ezingadalwanga, isuntswana, into, okanye amandla anoxanduva lokudala yonke into namandla kunye nokunika umyalelo wokuqala kwindalo yonke. Nokuba le nkqubo yenzeke nge-Big Bang okanye ngokuchazwa kwentsingiselo yeGenesis ayisebenzi. Yintoni ebalulekileyo kukuba kufuneka kubekho izinto ezingadalwanga ezinesakhono sokwenza kunye nokunika ucwangco. -UBobby Jindal, Oothixo abangakholelwayo kuThixo, Katolika.com
Ukanti, abanye abangakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo banyanzelisa ukuba “ukukhanyela indaleko kukwenza ngengqondo efanayo naleyo ikhohlisayo.” Oko kukuthi, babeke i ukholo olukhulu kwinto abangakwaziyo ukuyingqina. Bathembele ngokupheleleyo kumandla esayensi, ngokungathi ibiyinkolo, nokuba ayinamandla okuchaza into engachazekiyo. Kwaye ngaphandle kobungqina obunamandla boMdali, banyanzelisa ukuba oyena nobangela wokuqala wendalo awunakuba nguThixo, kwaye, ngokuyintloko, bashiye isizathu ngaphandle kokukhetha. Ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo, ngoku seleyeyona nto ayicekisayo kubuKrestu: a ubungqongqo. Apho omnye umKrestu angabambelela kutoliko lwendalo ngentsuku ezintandathu, umntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo ubambelela kwinkolelo yakhe kwindaleko ngaphandle kobungqina obubambekayo besayensi… okanye ebusweni bommangaliso, unamathela kwiingcamango zoqikelelo ngelixa elahla ubungqina obucacileyo. Umgca wokwahlula abo babini basisiseko ubhityile ngokwenene. Umntu ongakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo sele eyi oyinyaniso.
Kwinkcazo enamandla "yokoyika ukholo" okukhoyo kolu hlobo lokucinga, isazi ngeenkwenkwezi esaziwayo emhlabeni uRobert Jastrow uchaza ingqondo eqhelekileyo yezenzululwazi:
Ndicinga ukuba inxalenye yempendulo kukuba izazinzulu azinakho ukuthwala ingcinga yendalo engenakuchazwa, nokuba ixesha kunye nemali zingenamda. Kukho uhlobo lwenkolo kwisayensi, yinkolo yomntu okholelwa ukuba kukho ucwangco kunye nemvisiswano kwindalo iphela, kwaye zonke iziphumo kufuneka zibe nezizathu zazo; Akukho Sizathu Sokuqala… Olu kholo lwenkolo yesosayensi lwaphulwe kukufumanisa ukuba ihlabathi lalinesiqalo phantsi kweemeko apho imithetho yefiziksi ingasebenziyo, kwaye njengemveliso yamandla okanye iimeko esingenakuzifumanisa. Xa oko kusenzeka, usosayensi uphulukene nolawulo. Ukuba ngaba ebevavanye ngokwenene, angaphazamiseka. Njengesiqhelo xa ujongene nomothuko, ingqondo iyasabela ngokungahoyi iimpembeleloKwinzululwazi le yaziwa ngokuba “iyala ukuqikelela” —okanye yenza lula imvelaphi yelizwe ngokuthi yi-Big Bang, ngokungathi i-Universe yayingumcimi-mlilo… Kwisazinzulu esiphila ngokholo kumandla okuqiqa, ibali liphela njengephupha elibi. Uyinyuse intaba yokungazi; sele eza koyisa eyona ncopho iphakamileyo; xa ezitsalela phezu kwelitye lokugqibela, ubuliswa liqela labafundi bezakwalizwi abahleli apho iinkulungwane. -Robert Jastrow, umlawuli osungula iNASA Goddard Institute for Space Study, UThixo kunye neenkwenkwezi, Abafundi beThala leeNcwadi Inc., 1992
Isigqebelo esibuhlungu, ngokwenene.
