    Old Scientific Bible proof

    "What is interesting is the size of the moon in relationship to the earth. It is much larger in comparison to the earth than any other moon is compared to the planet it circles." Sure, now that Pluto is no longer considered to be a planet. "A shorter distance away and the moon would not circle...

    Evolution and Evil

    Seems more like creationists *try* to use said terminology, fail, then complain to us when we correct them.

    Evolution and Evil

    Tell me something, Gary51. If I were to take the elevator down to the 1st floor and, soon as the door opened, was shot dead by some crazy person, would that be natural selection? I think not. Would I be considered NOT fit to survive? Perhaps; I mean, my skin wasn't bulletproof, was it?

    Darwinism = Eugenics And Racism

    Human. But, when you can't reconcile the difference, it means you don't know, or rather, you don't believe. Maybe you want to say that you believe in *some* god, you just don't know which one. I'd like to add something about connotation. Atheist sounds bad, right? Agnostic sounds like you are...

    Humans will evolve into 2 different subspecies in 100,000 years

    I thought the growing *trend* was that intelligent people had less children.

    Darwinism = Eugenics And Racism

    Forgive me if this has been mentioned, but DrkSdBls is a "seeker," so it is understandable that he wouldn't want to be labeled.. yet. I went through a time in my life where I wasn't sure. Do I believe.. or do I not? Do I "truly" believe or just want to believe. My answer to the question, "do...

    Question for atheists

    I agreed with evolution before I gave up belief in a god. The beginning of the universe fascinates and confuses me greatly. Sure, I could say that everything was created by some supreme being but, ultimately, that solves nothing. Just thinking about it boggles the mind.. infinite universe...

    Common descent better supported than gravity?

    Brennin, tell us by what mechanism gravity works? Gravitons? Angels?

    Please stop!!!

    Why a cell? Why not just a self-replicating molecule? Why would the LoT destroy it for sure? Organization can happen, it just takes energy and a mechanism by which to utilize it. Why is it unreasonable to think even something with a small chance of happening will happen after a long time...

    the evo game

    Dad, you seem to think that if you say something over and over it will miraculously become true. Unfortunately, for you, that is not how reality works. All I see here is wishful thinking and projection on your part. Btw, I really love your logic.. to paraphrase, "science agrees with the bible...

    The Skunk and the Trunk: How Do Random Mutations Account for Complexity?

    So many questions.. and yet I know that there was no intention to hear the answer. Just think of anything that you don't understand.. WOW, it's so complex! Now go read about it, learn from others who have studied, keep an open mind, and suddenly it's not so complex!

    Attention Atheists, This One's For You

    Seems to me if this life is so short compared to the afterlife, then what is the point of that? Get me to the next life! But I don't think there is a next life, so let me get what I can out of this one and only and maybe I'll be remembered when I am gone, hopefully having had a positive impact...

    Censoring God: Why Is Science Establishment Threatened By Intelligent Design?

    I think it's time for the YEC's to put up.. or shut up. Saying that there are no transitionals has been shown to be a lie.. The core of evolution, changes in allele frequency, has been observed and has great explanatory power. Tell us how evolution has been falsified. Please, we are waiting...

    Dinosaurs in the Bible

    Weren't there many different types of dinosaurs? Are you trying to convince us that the bible is describing all dinosaurs, or just one in particular? When did a majority of them go extinct in your bible? The Flood? Seems to me that the bible talks about slaying a dragon but if dinosaurs lived...
