Some questions for Christians who accept evolution

[sfs]

That's not what I've been told!

It's clear to me that you've been told many false things.

 

[sfs]

If that's really the case, why do the natural chemical reactions only take over once life has left the body?

Only natural chemical reactions occur while the body is living, too. For that matter, the chemical reactions that translate the "message" of DNA into proteins work just fine outside the body.

I've already provided links to show that there is just as much difference of opinion about your common descent thingy i.e., whether it's real or imagined (depending on whether you take evolution or special creation as your starting point). So no answers to my questions - that's what I thought.

And I told you that I was asking first about evidence for evolution, since that was the topic. You said that creationists don't see any at all. I showed you some (as did other people), and you won't tell me whether it's actually evidence or not. I also told you I'd answer your questions after you told me whether or not what I showed you was evidence, but you haven't done it. None of your links had anything to do with my evidence; right now they're just a distraction. You're not the first, by the way: I've found it almost impossible to get creationists to address genetic data in any meaningful way. (And if you think there's actually a significant difference of opinion about common descent among scientists, you simply don't know what the situation is. Virtually all biologists, including the great majority of Christian ones, accept common descent.)

It might suggest a goal of some sort, but not necessarily one directed specifically at humans.

"Mankind" doesn't suggest the creation of humans in plan of God?

This makes zero sense.

 

[justlookinla]

This makes zero sense.

Why not?

 

[HitchSlap]

Why not?

You have trouble communicating in written form?

 

[justlookinla]

You have trouble communicating in written form?

Nope. You have trouble answering a simple question?

Why not?

 

[HitchSlap]

Nope. You have trouble answering a simple question?

Why not?

Ask me anything.

So, then if we look only at the scientists who are Christian, and ignore those who are atheists, Islamic, Hindu, Taoist, etc, and if they overwhelmingly agree on one way that God created, you go with their expert, Christian, position, right?

In His name-

No. I would check how their opinions measure up against God's. It is high time we stop putting ignoramuses and goofballs on pedestals.

Why would a word (in an English translation) that has nothing to do with planning suggest a plan?

There is no such thing as evolution of course. But to read the "six days" as six twenty-four hour time periods is where I draw the line of course. It is obvious that there have been billions of years of universe around before the "six days" of creation.

Then where are we gonna find a president? Ignoramuses and goofballs seems to be all we have to choose from.

No. are created stuff and so are the stars. Science doesn't even know what stars are! I believe they are all going to fall to earth one day. You see, without time existing where stars are, that means they are not really big or small as man thought! We do not know what they really are. No distance is known that all depends on time existing there, not just HERE! That star stuff baloney is an old and decrepit fable. It cannot be supported in any way at all. I kid you not.

Kids...the whole story of stars science teaches is a lie! Flee for your life.

I thought computers were obsolete. Didn't they evolve into a higher form of communication?

Astronomical spectroscopy is the study of astronomy using the techniques of spectroscopy to measure the spectrum ofelectromagnetic radiation, including visible light, whichradiates from stars and other hot celestial objects. Spectroscopy can be used to derive many properties of distant stars and galaxies, such as their chemical composition, temperature, density, mass, distance, luminosity, and relative motion using Doppler shiftmeasurements.

That's what you think. The stuff they measure is here, and in some cases the Doppler shift and other things simply probably do NOT mean what you believe by faith that they do. I don't care how convinced you are.

This pretty much just makes you a supporter of the multiverse hypotheses. If you want to accept quantum physics or not, they did give us the nuclear bomb. So they do have the ability to destroy the world as we currently know it.
