I would love to learn something new, but the fact is there's nothing new under the sun to learn. All things are as they always have been, now I know that will upset many but God said it, the one who created you and everything that exists.

Nothing is easily defined, it's the absence of God and of all created things. Which of 'course is impossible, so your question is invalid and shows a fundamental lack of understanding the reality of existence. The only reason we exist is to praise God and glorify His name.
The next question is, why should we care about what you think God said?

Your dead wrong about that. Yes you can worship any god you want in the church of evolution, except for the Lord Jesus Christ who hates those who believe in evolution. He has promise to cast them into the lake of fire, to be tormented forever.

The Lord is not just another god, He's a jealous God who hates all the other gods and those who worship them
The god of love is full of jealousy, and
violence? He is the only god but hates all the
other gods?
Can you guys see why you bring a story like
that to China, and we dont believe it?

dude if it didn't work it wouldn't be the foundation of modern biology, your just making a fool of yourself. Whats sad is people lying to themselves to hold onto something untrue, we have all the data and evidence to back up evolution, creationism has nothing, but you will pretend it does. Good job I'm sure gods happy with the people you guys turn from him with these insistent lies.
But, it doesn't work. Just because a lot of people have been hoodwinked into accepting a theory doesn't make it true.

I can understand why so many hold onto such an absurd theory, it's because they are afraid to admit that they have been fooled into believing a theory which has been debunked long ago.

Please see this 7 minute video of University professors admitting there is no evidence to support evolution.

Oh? So you admit there are links!

You seem very confused. First you deny
evolution, then you say there are links.

You really dont know what you are doing, do you.
You are absolutely incorrect about me.
I do know what I am doing. The very fact that there are missing links is one of the reasons that the theory of macro-evolution will always be a failed theory to me.

To you, yes. You, who dont
even know what a link is, or
means. Dont know that even one link demonstrates
" macroevolution". Dont knpw what you are doing.

Dont bother to respond, youve
proved this beyond ressonable
doubt already.

Yes they have always existed, just waiting to be discovered. All we had to do is assemble them. We can never discover something that doesn't exist. We can only invent ways to manufacture things that exist. it's not possible to manufacture something unless it already exists in a fragmented state.

It's not possible to make a pig fly, so we can never manufacture flying pigs. We can only discover and manipulee matter to form things which God has made possible. We can't work outside of Gods created order, God has set the boundaries and limits to what is possible to assemble and use and what is impossible for us.

We have absolutely zero power or ability to change anything about Gods created order, all we can do is what He has allowed us to do and nothing else

Please allow me to enlighten you with the truth of the matter. They are still looking for evidence to support evolution. All we currently have is a fantastic theory, but noting based on facts.

Well it's true, we can't discover or invent or assemble anything, unless God has created it in such a way as to enable us to do stuff with it. We can rearrange the created order to allow us to do stuff which God has made impossible for us to do. No scientist will ever find a way to stop you from dying and facing God's judgement.
I don't care how smart they think they are, they are still puny little dependents on Gods provision

Isn't odd that the believers of evolution appear to claim that only those who believe in evolution are the only ones who can understand science?

You just made that up.
The oddity is that youd think
It acceptible to use falsehoods to
attack people you do not know.

The development of a person within the mother's womb is NOT evolution.
Case closed.
Sentence 1: Correct. It is not evolution. Evolution requires billions of years to move from a single cell to a complex organism like a daffodil or a human. But the development from a single cell to a complex multicellular organism in the space of months belies your claim that single cells could not lead to complex multicellular organisms.
By all means deny that, on the grounds of faith, evolution does not occur. But please, do not deny the vast body of inter-related evidence that supports the theory of evolution as the best and only practical explanation for the diversity of life.

The theory of macro evolution is a falsehood full of junk and missing links and impossible to prove claims.
I will never ever believe in macro evolution.

Dear Sir, what you believe has on baring on the truth. Your beliefs can never change a single fact, they exist only in your own mind and you will have to account for ever word, thought and action when you stand before God to be judged.
Truth and fact are not a mater of belief and I'm not interested in your judgement.
The powers of darkness have deceived the world into thinking that everybody is autonomous and free to do what they want, without the fear of God's judgement.

I really can't understand how you can deny that you're a sinner and that you have been deceived by Demons.
It's rather easy, I don't believe in such things. I don't think they exist. At all.
I know the "world denies the truth" the world being non Christians. I thought you believed in God, but I guess I underestimated you
Why would you think I believe in a god? I've got no use for such things.

one video even if not doctered or such isn't proof aganst thousands of evidence. All the fossils we've found the genetic information and such point to evolution funny how we found feathered dinosaurs long after it was figured out birds cam efrom them, even the very same dinosaurs that would have evolved into birds. Weird conincidence. You can put your finger in your ears and go LALALALA but it doesn't make what you say a fact.

WHy is it that so many religious people, cultures, and countries and such many diametricly opposed to each other all accept it? it's almost as if it's impossible to be inelectually honest and deny evolution. how about providing actual evidence it's wrong instead of going UHUH. Explain why evolution from dinosaurs to birds is so imposible to ignore even creationists no longer can deny it.

Or claim to knowledge of facts not in
existence.
