Evolution vs. The Laws of Physics

Have you studied it?

you need to be alot more careful. remember that some posters here have been studying this sort of stuff since before you were born. I myself have been studying nothing but physics for the past six and a bit years, and even at a highish level in the five years preceeding that. Just on my university education alone, I have been studying physics day in day out since you were 11. Frumous and Lucaspa have ben studying their fields for what, twenty or thirty years.(coo they're so old ) If you really wanna learn about this stuff, then most of us here are willing to teach it.

You missed my point. I was referring to people's interpretations of the Bible. No one has a lock on what is the "correct" Biblical interpretation. You could just as easily be as wrong in your own Biblical interpretation as the next person. Remember, you're a fallible human just like the rest of us.

And if I pick the wrong religion and wind up in Hell anyway? I have no baseline for which religion is the "truth" and which ones are false. So, I look at them all equally.

But I'm not going to buy into a religion out of fear of punishment. Doing so seem extremely foolish and paranoid, to me.

A Big-Footer? Are you implying I believe in Big Foot?

I have nothing against Christianity and am not going to go out of my way to disprove it. I'd much rather try to understand it, which is what I am doing on these forums.

Actually, I didn't see it was that old, when I posted it..

You are right.... Nobodies going anywhere in this thread.. I need to go back to the drawing board and study a bit more before a reattempt to debunk any theory of Evolution.... But you are the first who has challenaged me in such a way as wrong and to re-research..

Yes Lyle I have read it TWICE -cover to cover. I was born and raised catholic. I left Catholocism (not because I was against it but because I wanted to spiritually branch out) I then went to a Church of Christ, here in Texas. I worshipped there for a couple years until the ignorance became too much to handle. Picture a Bubba pulling up to church in his pick-up truck spitting Copenhagen out the window and then having another Bubba in Bible study instruct the first one to ask non believers if they have ever heard of the Second Law of Thermo as was way to quell an argument. Pretty dangerous, I thought to whip out science terms and have no idea what they mean. When they kept ref. to the Solar System as the Galaxy I knew it was time for me to fly. Recently I have been visiting Synagogue with some school mates. At 33 I have studied religion, wuite a bit from the inside looking out and vice versa! The Jews do not believe Genesis to be literal and it is THEIR book-go figure!

Again I say, you couldn't have hit it any "wronger " The Bible does have rights and wrongs.. And yes, many people may interpret different things different ways. That doesn't mean it's right. There are rules about women teaching men and women in church, but still people do it. The Bible has alot to say about this "speaking in tounges," and almost any who believe that have it worng. (read the passages in the Greek context and you will see). There is a right and wrong way to interpret something.. Though there are other grounds. Like Calvinism and such, but somehtings are blatently wrong...

So true, but there are ways you can tell.

You could go somewhere but you have to be willing to learn AND listen. Lyle do you realize that ANY of us here would LOVE to be able to debunk the theory of evolution? If it was that easy it would have been done LONG ago. Lyle-Evolution has Libraries full of data and pictres. If anyone could falsify (mean really falsify it) that person would become very famous and VERY wealthy. Please remember that The Big Bang and Evolution are not the same thing. Argue one or the other. Ecvolution is not a religion or faith. It actually has tangible evidence!!

Haha, I suppose you are right... It has changed much from what I was taught i guess (when it first was thought up). But yeah, I may take you all up on that offer, but I'll read around on the web, and on updated articles and see..... I think the first thign i need to do is get a grasp on what the Big Bang is, and not just what I have been taught.... But thank you all
