I gotta admit Pete I admire your persistent
faith. But without eviidence what you
believe?
Is the hokiest ga damn notion
I've ever heard. Crap just piece'n itself
together no lab in hostile environment pay
no mind to the billions of years
impossibility.
Look at what you actually
believe? It's insanity. Even a strawman in
the mix wouldn't make it more believable.
And you call that intelligent? I said it years
Ago in a thread titled "Aheism is stupid"
But you can believe what ever you want.
Just don't mock others unless you wanna
eat crow pal.
Pointing the finger to call attention away from
the obvious just won't work anymore.
Just jerked your lil toy away.

Sorry Peter you can employ what ever word
Salad you like. It won't put me on your
marry go round.
So just stop advocating your know nothing admit nothing ridiculous
atheist view.
I know you'll miss feeling all
superior but after all. Man is in no way the
sharpest tool in the shead. Atheism proves
that exponentially.

Let me ask you this Peter
Do we live in a friendly or a hostile
environment?
I have a feeling that you enjoy this reality and do not shy away from looking into the places where others are afraid to look, because they will then have to challenge the rock upon which they built their reality. You fear no such assessment, do you?
The conversation is the most important part, even if it doesn't accomplish anything. If the material world is here for us to use and is completely neutral, neither good nor evil. It is always the person that matters.
What better way of discovering reality than to study ourselves?

Explaining that molecules are inanimate?
That's your answer? Everyone knows that.
It does nothing to explain your thinking
against the only observable evidence that
life only comes from life. Did you just
abandon the scientific method? Why not
just say life doesn't come only from
life because fire engines? Quit dodging the
question?

Ex nihilo is a Latin phrase meaning "out of nothing". It often appears in conjunction with the concept of creation, as in creatio ex nihilo, meaning "creation out of nothing", chiefly in philosophical or theological contexts, but it also occurs in other fields.
n theology, the common phrase creatio ex nihilo (lit. "creation out of nothing"), contrasts with creatio ex materia (creation out of some pre-existent, eternal matter) and creatio ex deo (creation out of the being of God). Creatio continua is the ongoing divine creation.
The phrase ex nihilo also appears in the classical philosophical formulation ex nihilo nihil fit, which means "out of nothing comes nothing".
Theologians debate whether the Bible itself teaches creation ex nihilo. Traditional interpreters[4] argue on grammatical and syntactical grounds that this is the meaning of Genesis 1:1, which is commonly rendered: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." They find further support for this view in New Testament passages such as Hebrews 11:3—"By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible" and Revelation 4:11, "For you [God] created all things, and by your will they existed and were created."
The RigVeda quotes "If in the beginning there was neither Being nor Non-Being, neither air nor sky, what was there? Who or what oversaw it? What was it when there was no darkness, light, life, or death? We can only say that there was the One, that which breathed of itself deep in the void, that which was heat and became desire and the germ of spirit," which is suggestive of the fact that Ex nihilo creator was always there and he is not controlled by time or by any previous creation.[19] en.wikipedia.org...

Evolution is indeed a fact
"According to your faith, let it be so". Hence the problem with believing you're a mutant chimpanzee.

No one who has done any studying of evolution believes humans are mutant chimpanzees.
