    and it spreads

    This is rather worrying. I do hope that all the Biology teachers are properly informed about Creationism, Intelligent Design and Evolution. If they are there should be no problem, and their pupils will reject Creationism and Intelligent Design as bogus non-scientific theories.

    Pure metaphysical claims

    Nice try David Gould, but as you can see Christians will not actually consider the question you ask them. This is because being a Christian means not thinking about such things, but accepting that what the Bible or the Pope or your preist says without question. For what its worth both your...

    life origin?

    The origin of life? The glib answer is no one knows. A more considered answer might be: We know that the Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. We know that the Earth now contains all the chemical elements necessary for life. We know that life has been on the Earth for about 3 billion years...

    Evolution and Religion

    Another thing, the whole point about evolution is that it just happens. If it were directed it would behave in a very different way. Of course you could argue that the chemical and physical laws direct it and that these were put in place by God, but that really is clutching at straws.

    Evolution and Religion

    Nice idea, but the logical conclusion from this argument is that he put the matter in place and sat back and did nothing else. Then billions of years later he decided that just one species of life on earth should believe that he exists.

    Evolution and Religion

    I am happy to accept that you may be right, but I would like to see some logical argument to support your assertions. Some scientific evidence would be nice too, but not absolutely necessary.

    Evolution and Religion

    I suggest that it is you who will not listen. I am not arguing from assertion. I am arguing from logic, that is quite different. You on the other hand assert that God exists and will not consider that you might be wrong.

    Evolution and Religion

    Consciousness is indeed a hard thing to explain, but just a few decades ago man could not explain how heredity was possible. Why invoke "spirit" to explain something lets just do the science and find out how beings become conscious.
