My Rock Challenge

[Tiberius]

I suppose it worked something like this:

Say you have a lake that's been there for 1000 years.

There's an earthquake, and the lake breaks out and floods the area.

The area then freezes.

Later, someone coming along might find a 6-month old insect embedded in 1000 year-old water.

Same with rocks.

Some can form so quickly, you can watch them form at home.

What if we had some way of seeing how long the water has been frozen?

dont know much about rocks but i have a pet rock that i have been talking to, watering and feeding since the 70's hoping it will involve into something. i know it's just a matter of time but i plan on passing it down for generations to come hoping it becomes something other than a rock one day.

nothing plus time and chance equals everything....right?

Wrong. Why do you creationists post ridiculous arguments like this which clearly show that you do not understand evolution and then think that you have made some damaging point. The only thing you are damaging is your own credibility.

Right now we are just hoping that He will breath some life into you.

Oh, insults! Haven't you got anything better to do?

when a frog turns into a prince, we used to call it a fairy tale....you call it science.

When you resort to citing fairy tales in an effort to discredit science, it shows how weak your position is.

How about you wait until frogs turn into people, and then you can talk. Until then, you are speaking nonsense.

I am sure my wife would be glad to find something for me. Like get the camera out, take photos of our junk to sell on Ebay so we can clean the house out. I just can not seem to get motivated.

How about you wait until frogs turn into people

Nothing ever seems to turn into something else. They just all share a common ancestor. Yet they never seem to be able to find even one common ancestor. With all the skeltons they have of monkeys, apes and men. You would think one of them was a common ancestor or what they use to call the missing link.

You do realise that we have fossils of only the smallest number of species that have ever existed, yeah? And of those, we have only a small number of individuals from those species.

Why do you think we'd have fossils of every species?

Ah yes; and talking serpents, instant human from dust......... Hmmm Gotcha!!!

Do you have the bones of your great great great great great grandfather? NO Well he did not exist then!

believe what you want, but remember evolution makes a monkey out of you.

 

[Tiberius]

believe what you want, but remember evolution makes a monkey out of you.

Again, the typical creationist misunderstanding of evolution.

Needless to say, creationism makes dirt out of you.

 

[Loudmouth]

Why is it that creationists can not stand the idea of being related to the rest of life on Earth? Do they detest the very Creation they boast so loudly about?

 

[Loudmouth]

So you are an exact copy of your parents?

Are you saying that the chihuahua did not come from the wolf?

Yet they never seem to be able to find even one common ancestor.

How did you determine this? How did you determine that none of the hominid fossils are an ancestor of modern humans? Can you show me the skeleton of Mitochondria-Eve or Y-Adam?

 

[AV1611VET]

Why is it that creationists can not stand the idea of being related to the rest of life on Earth?

Because we aren't.

 

[Loudmouth]

Because we aren't.

But why do they get grossed out just by the thought of it? Is Creation that disgusting? Do they think so little of God's Creation?

 

[AV1611VET]

But why do they get grossed out just by the thought of it?

Because it is blasphemy.

Adam was not a mutant copy-error, made in the image and likeness of God.

I've asked this before, and I'll ask it again:

I can name Adam's father by name; can you name his mother?

 

[Loudmouth]

Because it is blasphemy.

That is not the vibe I get. It is often used as an insult, as shown by Hog Red. It is meant to demean people. That is not what you do with blasphemous theologies.

And why do they use such things as faith, worship, and religion as insults? Do creationists think this little of faith, worship, and religion? Have you ever heard a scientist say, "That creationism stuff is a SCIENCE!!!!"? And yet you always find creationists saying, "Evolution is a RELIGION!!!!". Why do you think that is?

 

[AV1611VET]

That is not the vibe I get.

I get the impression there's a lot of vibes you don't get.

What is used as an insult? evolution?

Evolution is blasphemy to God -- insulting to us.

It is meant to demean people.

I agree.

Evolution makes monkeys out of us.

That is not what you do with blasphemous theologies.

You mean we should burn candles inside a pentagram and chant we came from apes? would it then be considered blasphemous?

And why do they use such things as faith, worship, and religion as insults?

The Bible says God's Word is 'sharper than a twoedged sword.'

If It didn't affect you guys in an adverse manner, It wouldn't be what It claims to be, would It?

Do creationists think this little of faith, worship, and religion?

Faith is something we all have.

To say certain people are exempt from faith would be 'thinking little' of it, in my opinion.

Have you ever heard a scientist say, "That creationism stuff is a SCIENCE!!!!"?

No

And yet you always find creationists saying, "Evolution is a RELIGION!!!!".

Yup

Why do you think that is?

Because in reality, there was no science present during the creation week; therefore it is by faith we believe what we believe.

And since scientists weren't there to observe their version of what happened (Big Bang, Big Bounce), it is most definitely faith that they are going on as well.

Jesus was not fond of relegionists of His day.
Creationists are not fond of relegionists today.
Few people are.

We respect the earth as a reflection of it's Creator.
It's like a Grand and fine mansion made of sand.

2 Peter 3:7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

 

[mzungu]

Creationists insist on the fallacy that evolution explains how life began! This is tantamount to one saying that Christianity explains the escape velocity formula for a projectile to achieve low earth orbit!

Abiogenesis = How life began from non life.

Evolution = How life evolved once it began.

Creationism = How life came from non life (dust) + God's breath (also non life as God is not physical).

If you disagree then take it up with Abiogenesis and not Evolution!
