What I love though is the assertion that believing in evolution, which there is proof of, is ignorant....so what then, are we to believe a myth about a creator and some omnipotent god that judges us from uphigh?

Look up evolution and adaption in the dictionary... You will see how stupid this statement is... A dog growing a full coat for cold weather, YES... A dog growing gills to breath under water, NO

All animals adapt, there is NO fact to evolution, that is why we call it Evolutionary Theory...

good job evolution doesnt say dogs should be growing lungs then

evolution says the dog with the biggest thickest coat is the most fit for a cold enviroment

Theory

A scientific theory summarizes a hypothesis or group of hypotheses that have been supported with repeated testing. A theory is valid as long as there is no evidence to dispute it. Therefore, theories can be disproven. Basically, if evidence accumulates to support a hypothesis, then the hypothesis can become accepted as a good explanation of a phenomenon. One definition of a theory is to say it's an accepted hypothesis.

maybe you should look up scientific theory

When is the last time you've observed creation?
When is the last time you've found evidence of creation?

FYI, plenty of artifacts supporting evolution to go around.

Edit: Evolution is scientific theory.

*snip*. No we dont need to stone our children and stone our wifes and have slaves. That is the OLD Testament. In the Old Testaments time people had to literally be sinless to get into heaven. Sin is the ultimate crime. Sin = Death. They did not have a savior they had to do as God instructed. And doing those things to keep sin out was what they had to do. The only way back then to be forgiven of a sin was to sacrifise a Lamb to God. Since Jesus came and died on the cross he wiped away our sins. Now we dont need the old laws. We just need to ask Jesus for forgiveness, and he'll for give us. Although that doesnt mean take advantage of him cause God isnt stupid. Maybe that cleared some stuff up for ya.

That certainly didn't clear anything up for anyone. You just raised a hundred new questions all of which do not have a place in this specific thread.

Sin=Death? Where did you go to church?

Don't die everyone, if you do you are sinning.

With respect to all...


Let's please be civil ok?

Arguments are not won by one liners or critisisms....


For the Christians pls remember James 3:17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy.


For the skeptic pls remember there are a whole bunch of scientists who love god, for one....George Washington Carver,
agricultural chemist, who was the inventor of over 300 products....who said...

"Without my Savior, I am nothing.

"I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station,
through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in."
"God is going to reveal to us things he never revealed before if we put our hands in his. No books ever go into my laboratory, a thing I am to do and the way of doing it are revealed me."

yes it is its the unifying thoery of all biology

it cannot be OBSERVED!!!

yes it can it has on many occasions

Only Micro-Evolution can be observed...

macro eveolution is just evolution on the genetic level, if weve seen micro then macro exists they are the same process, macro is what happens after lots of micro

and even macro evolution has been observed in plants, hybridisation lead to a whole new genus

How come we havent seen a new species come about,

we have many times ^_^

why have we stop evolving if evolution is true? Explain that...

we havnt we are still evolving, your dna has variance from everyone elses thats becasue of mutations other wise dna analysis at crime scenes wouldnt work

thats also why some people are no immune to the HIV1 retro virus

Not to go offtopic here, but i guess you didn't notice the side-effects of HIV medicine are exactly the same as the aids disease itself.

im talking about actual genetic immunity to the hiv1 strain of hiv

when the retro virus gets into thier system thier immune system destroys it rather then the usual where the hiv virus destorys the immune system

the mutation stops it entering through the cell wall so its unable to spread the infection and dies

One would think that with all the knowledge available on youtube there would be less stupidity. Because we know how much people like to watch a video instead of read a book, but that's beside the point. The point is even if you disprove evolution, which you cant, that does not prove the existence of god or any form of spirituality. The religious argument against evolution is a logical fallacy to assume that because science cannot explain something that means god fills that void.

Face the truth because you cannot hide forever. Soon the days that man believed in something beyond existence will be nothing but a myth, a foot note in the back of a history book. You probably think it will never happen because god is in all of us and blah blah blah and you raise your children the christian way blah blah blah. Oh its coming and so much faster than you expected. This very generation 1989 and up is the final ride of religion, and after that when you are dead as dirt there will be nothing. I hate every single person who believes in god. To me they are not people but sub-human answering machines. You know what is nothing, religion is nothing. Religion is the greatest 'something from nothing'. Tell me one thing that a religious person could do that a non-religious could not?
