Hey evolution has its gaps as well. As an example evolution fails at giving an explanation for the multi layerd symbiotic relationships between species and food.
"science can't explain that, ergo god did it."
People did the same with floods, plagues, fire and comets in the past. Every single time there proven wrong
Thanks for providing so many great examples of God of the gaps tooth

Evolution claims a species makes a choice, and thats good enough to believe in, but a closer look reveals that in fact they are all making the same personal choice, doesn't sound to personal any more. In addition they never experiement with food unless they are starving so how do they know that a rock is not food? There is only one answer, they are being directed to the food.
Why would you pick a fight with him about proving the supernatural when I have allready told you a plethora of times that the bible and the events that took place are listed as supernatural which does not conform to scientific standards, and I keep tell you this...

su·per·nat·u·ral/ˌso͞opərˈnaCH(ə)rəl/Adjective: (of a manifestation or event) Attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature.
Noun: Manifestations or events considered to be of supernatural origin.
Synonyms: preternatural - unearthly - weird - miraculous
So evolution explains how a species makes a decision on food, I have to hear this.
Actually, that's exactly what it does
Now remind me, were you one of the people claiming that a species just eats what ever, cause I got news for you, I can look up just about any diet for anything online and its not looking like anything just eats whatever.
Why do you blindly repeat the same nonsense arguments that were debunked a few pages ago??
That would require intense intelligent programming that isn't even in the scope of humans being able to do it either. Making sure that a few things are in balance with each other might be possible but over a billion species, no way man, thats going to require a lot of brain work, and we simply don't have it. But let me guess, your going to try to sell me on the idea that this magical little process known as evolution has it all. Prove it.
Living beings have relationships with other living beings. Either they are food, or they are prey...or there is a symbiotic relationship. The theory of evolution describes how this came to be.
You keep saying that, I want to see the wiki that talks about that experimental stage, hell I would even settle for some lame forum that claims it, again domestic animals wouldn't apply.
And animals do experiment with food, at least a ton of them do.
That is all the signs of a bear that is hungry, which doesn't apply, remember a species will even eat its own poo if it's hungry enough. My parakeets will if I forget to feed them. It's another clue that his target food is long gone. He is obviously in phase 2 of hunger and will eat anything. Anytime something will eat anything its sort of common sense they are starving.
Some animals are specialists, and they evolved in a way that optimises them towards a certain type of food. Other animals (like bears) will eat everything that remotely looks like food. Don't believe me? Camp somewhere in Canada and leave an open Snickers bar outside your tent. I bet you $100 that if a bear passes by he won't go "oh, damn, it's a Snickers...looks so good...but I can't experiment because tooth thinks that's how nature works".
Sure to help with digesting, my parakeets eat grit. I'm talking about something of a regualr diet that they depend on.
Also, as I've told you before...some animals eat rocks. Most birds do...and quite a few reptiles too.

There is noting supernatural about WIFI. It can be explained, yet it is a wave that consciousness collapses with the right tools and laws. God is not unnatural at all. He is only above this reality. We also have proof from scientific axioms that higher axioms must always exist until we have THE axiom that shows the relationship of the whole. God is that axiom. He constructed this hologram with natural laws that are set into the process by the programmer. We have a metaphor for this and you are using it to connect your thoughts to mine. The voice does the same, but you cannot see the words coming from my mouth. You can only see the words coming from my distal phalanges because you collapsed the wave of this thread to your sense mechanism (computer) produced by a creator. Memory collapsed in time from a hard drive is no different than collapsing wave function in our reality. They are mirrored. I have only shown conclusively that a connection exists between what science is JUST NOW realizing and what the Bible stated from the beginning. If you have an older textbook, provide it. If you can nullify what my textbook says, then you have a case. Either way, you have not provided either. Axioms and theories are not proven so much as they need to be disproved first. The ball is in your court with this, not mine. The Bible reinforces all its words with axioms that are clearly spoken. I have shown the relationships and now you are free to disprove what they say. If not, we stand on a solid evidence. edit on 4-11-2012 by EnochWasRight because: (no reason given)

More evidence of what? it's not even a scientific theory by definition and best falls short of any technical details pertaining to quantum mechanics.
Besides even if it could be proven how does it disprove evolution?
Your missing the mark, science does not care what you believe. Science is only interested in what can be shown by evidence and testing to be true.
You have clearly demonstrated several times over that you don't know the first thing about this subject.
I don't really see why anyone should be expected to take your preaching seriously.
Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.
This is dead on truth.
The Bible verifies what is misplaced and brings it back to reality.

Your posts show a complete lack of understanding of science and how it works, as well as an unhealthy tendency to substitute ancient bronze age tribal mythology for reality.
You need to support your claims, or admit that you can't do so.
It is time to put up or shut up.
If you are honest, you will say, "I don't know and neither does science." One the other hand, if you use the Bible, you have an answer that agrees with the data that is observed. We are programmed with WORD! Reality is a hologram. Divinity created it.

A Creator is becoming impossible to deny. As John 1 states, we are created with WORD.
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.
