Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
It is science that is going to [supposedly] win, only to get a wake-up call at the last minute.
Yeah, yeah, one day stuff will happen and things will take place. I get it.
Besides, we all know what is really going to happen is machines are going to take over the world and we'll all be jacked into the Matrix. And have kung-fu powers. Which will be awesome.

Until you guys learn that there's another type of energy in existence, you're never going to understand anything.
The martial arts come close to describing it, but not close enough.

Unless you can quantitatively demonstrate this, then I don't care.

So who's your most likely candidate? Richard Dawkins? Neil deGrasse Tyson? Eugenie Scott? The most outspoken secular scientists don't seem to have any political ambition whatsoever, and if they did, what platform would they run on?
On even closer examination, the fact that you could seriously hold the opinion that an evil scientist will take over the world I think speaks volumes about just how cartoony and juvenile the worldview you have expressed on this forum really is.

I don't get into that.
I'm not a date-setter, and I'm not a finger-pointer.

The world will have a different opinion when they see him perform an act that you guys say you can't even explain: abiogenesis.
That, I'm sure, will get the attention of even the most skeptical scientist.

sure would. If god shows up and starts doing stuff i would believe. Its immoral for god to expect people to blindly follow him before such time though.
I find it funny that in the bible praises blind faith but not believe in him when their is no evidence of his existence is somehow punishable by going to hell.
actually i understand it completely. Its exactly how little kids believe in Santa. Actually confirming his existence is punishment believing without question, a virtue.
Sure faeries exist. But in order to see them, you have to believe in them when your alive and can only see them when you die. but on a special day all the fairy will come out of hiding and all those who didn't believe they existed will get turned into toads. all those that did believe in them will go to a fairy tea party with the best food in the universe. You will get to meet all your loved ones that died when this happened. oh except for the ones that didn't believe in fairies. after all they didn't believe in fairies so and the party is so amazing that its really of little consequence that they are now toads.
