    You said that I was scared, I only implied that it might be your own fears that prompted this assertion. As far was the satire in your posts, perhaps thats in the eye of the beholder. The rest is silence.

    Am I going to hell

    First off there is no one other then God who can determine whether or not you are a child of perdition. One good rule of thumb is that if it worries you chances are you are not too far gone. God does not make that choice for you, I'm convinced that people in Hell wouldn't have it any other...

    Notice you are talking in gereralities. A mouse trap is a mechanism with identifiable parts and an explicite function, natural selection is a gernerality. The branch of biology you are refering to includes, among other things, the Mendel laws of inheritance. The law of segregation and the...

    No your satire barely amuses me, it lacks substance so its easily dismissed as pedantic. You have a nerve to call my assertions 'word tricks', since you have substituted satire for reason. My world would be unchanged if I converted to the cult of modernist dogma. You are begging the...

    Maltus essay was cited in 'Origin of Species', it was in fact based on it. "These two laws ever since we have had any knowledge of mankind, appear to have been fixed laws of our nature; and, as we have not hitherto seen any alteration in them, we have no right to conclude that they will ever...

    It was decades before natural selection was sythesised into biology and the laws of inheritance, even though they were developed at the same time. Natural selection (aka evolution, or phylogeny) does not represent a law of science it is a way of looking at things. Natural selection is a premise...

    No, I am making the assertion that the evidence is irrelevant. Natural selection is metaphysics, I would think you would be proud of how naturalism supplanted God as the transendent principle in living systems.

    This kind of an assertion stands until refuted, thats how it works in philosophy. Thats all I have to do and until you realize that you are arguing from a premise, rather then a proof, you are going in circles.

    Coming from someone making a valid point I would be insulted. Coming from you I am only mildly amused. You have yet to show how your premise is proof because you cannot so you hide behind this satire. If you think this is science you dont know what you are talking about and thank you for making...

    I guess you think that evolution is science but you can only argue around your premise.

    *sigh* yea I did. Excerpt: Sure, this is is another demonstration of the laws of inheritance that natural selection hides behind. This is not a valid point its a diversion. Probably would be pointless unless you were actually able to either identify the law of science known as natural...

    No its just that family time outweighs your silly satire

    Ditto! Its been real everyone but I have to leave the close encounter of the one liners. If you want a serious discussion of how natural selection I suggest you propose one on the formal debate thread. If I am convinced you are seriously trying to defend natural selection as science I'll be...
