  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Here's my problem, I believe in evolution, and it brings up doubts especially in the OT...

Radiometric dating can't date anything that far back regardless. And dating space rocks that are subjected to a very different atmosphere isn't very reliable in that it isn't based on the half-life we based the dating system on.

You might want to visit this link and scroll...way down to chapter 7.

Accelerated Nuclear Decay: A Viable Hypothesis?

Lots of information concerning accelerated decay. Lots of it.

It says life is so complicated...it could not have evolved from a dead rock.

And that, boys and girls, is as good as it gets form the creationist camp.

Are we wowed yet?

Evidence as it relates to the evolution v. creationism debate.
OK. How did this evolve? How did the information in the DNA increase to the point that it could construct the motor protein and the microtubule it walks across?

I say it's too complicated, sophisticated...that evolutionism could never create it.

Sounds like anything too complicated for you to explain can't possibly be a product of evolution.

Will all the sciences be limited by your knowledge, or just biology?

That is an opinion, not evidence. Do you even understand the difference between evidence and opinion?

You start off immediatly back peddling. You lost in one post.

...so i'll give you a second chance......How did it evolve? If you don't begin to explain how it evolved....you won't get a 3rd chance.

You start off with opinion, and never present any evidence. You lost in one post.

Oh, now you're trying to twist the question......
But you admitted you don't know. Lets move on to perhaps somehing simpler....

OK, how did random mutations, natural selection and survival of the fittest allow for the echo-location system of the dolphin to evolve via "descent with modification".

You made the claim that evolution could not produce that protein, and never offered a shred of evidence to back it up.

You never produce a shred of evidence that the protein was produced by a supernatural deity.

When are you going to discuss evidence?

BEEP...BEEP...back the truck up.....YOU have already made the claim through your fervent faith in evolutionism that the motor protein and micro-tubule evolved. THE CLAIM WAS MADE BY YOU AND YOUR SCIENCE. Evolution did it.

So, Loudmouth....I said, I don't think it could evolve. BUT, you have already claimed it did evolve. So, answer the question.....HOW COULD EVOLUTIONISM CREATE IT?

We can't know for sure what was the same kind because we weren't there. However, since dogs and foxes are so closely related, it stands to reason they are the same kind. . . .

In exactly the same that that since all mammals are so closely related, it stands to reason they are the same kind.
