5 Questions Evolutionists Can't Answer

[AV1611VET]

It is still a myth, with no supporting evidence, just like the thousands of other creation myths that exists...

Is everything that has "no supporting evidence" a myth to you?

Nope, just the myths.

You're the squad leader in enemy territory.

You're at the edge of a clearing, and a little boy: dirty, clothes ripped, bleeding and crying for his mother is coming toward you holding a cute teddy bear in his arms.

You order HALT! in his language, but he keeps walking toward you and won't stop.

What do you do?

That depends where I am. If it's WWII in Italy or France, I send someone out to get the boy before he gets hurt. If I'm in a country in Southeast Asia that uses children to carry bombs, or if I'm in the Middle East where they have no regard for the lives of their children because they seem to think killing for their God is a good thing, I shoot the teddy bear. If I can't get a clear shot, I put the sight in the middle of the his chest and double tap.

Americans do not make war on children. Contrary to the hate filled rhetoric from some liberals we do not ever target children. However, when the enemy uses the innocent as a means to inflict mass murder, then there are no innocent. You have to protect your brothers against all enemies, even small ones.

Kinda like a christian who says that Thor's day is the 5th day of the week.

Counting from Sunday then I guess... I count Monday as the first day of the week. Anyway...

...it does not stop with Thor:

Tuesday - Tyr's Day
Wednesday - Woden's (Odins) Day
Thursday - Thor's Day
Friday - Freyja's Day

And the meaning is also preserved in German, Dutch, Afrikaans, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Icelandic (besides some exceptions in German and Icelandic; for instance Wednesday is called "midweek" in German and Icelandic) and might very well be in other Germanic languages like Faroese and Frisian etc. Finish, which is not a Germanic language, has also these references to pagan gods in the weekdays.

Monday and Sunday are celebration to the Moon and the Sun which always been very important in almost any ancient religious systems... Saturday is in English the ancient roman god Saturn but in Scandinavian languages Saturday refers to the day of the week when you was washing (I find this deviation interesting as most Germanic people, with their pagan beliefs, never accepted the Roman occupation and their culture and in particular as the Gothic people of Scandinavia was never under any ancient Roman rule ...)

Then of course we have the reference to ancient Roman gods and culture in the moth names... and not to mention a lot of pagan symbols during x-mass with North Germanic people.

Jesus was for well over a thousand years just another god, seen by some as more powerful, to sacrifice to in order to gain victory in war and other conflicts. Christianity, I would say in my limited knowledge of this, was formed, shaped and merged into an already present deep rooted ancient pagan religions in European Roma occupied countries - just in the same way Christianity got it first grip of the Romans.

I've asked this before ... I'll ask it again.

You're the squad leader in enemy territory.

You're at the edge of a clearing, and a little boy: dirty, clothes ripped, bleeding and crying for his mother is coming toward you holding a cute teddy bear in his arms.

You order HALT! in his language, but he keeps walking toward you and won't stop.

What do you do?

(Please answer this.)

It is not clear to me what this has to do with what I wrote, but the answer to your question is of course; "it depends on..."

Contrary to the hate filled rhetoric from some liberals we do not ever target children.

I would suggest read a war documentary novel like "Black Hawk Down" then perhaps you gets a bit more nuance to your opinions about wars.

Just as an example in the movie the troops does an air assault and when on the ground they are being shoot at. The political correct ranger at the machine gun ask his Sergeant what to do and the Sergeant tells the private to shoot back since they are being shoot at. All according to the political correct picture of the armed solider engaging a fire fight. In reality the assault team sprayed the street with helicopter machine gun fires before the troops even took to the ground. It is known as "clearing the area" in order to set up a safe perimeter. Again, and in reality, the troops was shooting into, and killing, the civilians, men, women and children, because armed aggressors was mingled with them. They shoot first and asked question later. That is what happen in Somalia and every where else around the world. Soldiers do this to protect their own asses because they do not feel like coming back home in a body bag. It is a matter of "them or me". It is about survival. Simple as that with no complications. I am not judging any soldiers for doing this, because anyone have the right to protect their own life, but just telling you what the reality of war and armed conflicts is like.

War is never as pretty and political correct as seen in the movies or news...

I put the sight in the middle of the his chest and double tap.

You like to contradict yourself, don't you?

How sad for them.
John 1: 9-11


Matthew 7: 21-23


Proverbs 3: 5-7

It is very clear that God not only desires, but expects that we have faith in His word.

2 Tomothy 3: 16-17

Perhaps you do not realize it our self but what you do now is worshiping a bunch of stories found in the Bible but not God... When you claim god, or gods words, speak to you, or us, all you do is referring to the Bible but for all practical purpose you then have made the Bible become God.

Your god is the Bible, not God itself....

 

[In situ]

Judge and ye shall be judged.

You are on dangerous ground.

What surprise me with many vocal fundamentalists is their selective reading of the Bible. They claim it all to be true, but they do not act as if it were. They say we should fear God but they do not act as they fear God them self. If I was a fundamentalist that thought everything was true in the Bible I would consider Job 42:7 very carefully before I said anything about God or Gods intention and will....

 

[In situ]

Those are assertions lacking evidence. Name one.

How many times did Saul of Tarsus encountered Jesus?

If you said "once", you have a contradiction, if you say "twice", you call the stories in the new testimony erroneous.

That depends where I am. If it's WWII in Italy or France, I send someone out to get the boy before he gets hurt.

You're the one that called It a myth.

Why are you hiding behind a false accusation of "semantics," when I ask you a question?

Do you stand behind your point, or don't you?

 

[AV1611VET]

It is not clear to me what this has to do with what I wrote, but the answer to your question is of course; "it depends on..."

It depends on what?

How much more information do you want?

Here -- let me simplify it for you:

Would you have ordered American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 shot down out of the sky?

YES or NO please?

I somehow don't think you're qualified to make that assessment.

You're entitled to your opinion, though.

I can imagine why, too.

You make snap judgments and convey them as if they were factual.

I'd be surprised if I heard you say, "In my opinion..."

Take me for instance.

Very seldom do I say something that isn't just my opinion -- and I'll gladly admit it as well.

E-scientists, on the other hand, hardly ever say, "In my opinion..."

After all, they need to act like scientists, and scientists need to act like they know what they're saying.

Your answer omits anything about evidence, so is just another one of your worthless opinions.

 

[In situ]

No offense, but if you like them -- I'll pass.

So when the evidence start flies in your face you opt to bluntly deny them?

It is a bit mind boggling to me how someone can reason about religion in this way, but with decisions and beliefs hold in everyday ordinary life they would normally not do the same thing. How come this split personality occurs in matters of religious beliefs?

It is not that this phenomena is unheard of before; I read about a case in where a spouse was regular cheated on and the other spouse, to all evidence, knew this was the case but still kept on denying this was the case for many many years.

To me it seams to be a matter of a protective denial from emotions that may hurt the individual to much if certain facts are accepted to true... It is my beliefs that this is what underlies many YEC's denials of evidence when exposed to them; a fear to confront that all they believe in is a just a deception or a lie... One need to be a strong person to be able to handle such things overnight... most will need lost of time, years if not decades....
