Not with that attitude it won't.

The world is full of "can't doers". I'm looking for some can-doers. Apparently they aren't to be found on this forum (among creationists at least).
It has nothing to do with attitude. It has everything to do with understanding. Please explain to me how a being can have always existed and what kind if makeup that being would have to be made in order to have a ways existed and explain by what power he has to be able to create something out of nothing. What is the exact makeup of a being that can create a living soul? What is the make up and how does a being be everywhere at once and can know all things. What is the make up of his mind in order to know the future?

When it comes to the OP you have my answer. Neither you nor I can have any understanding or ability to understand.
Yet, you claim to know that this god of yours did it.

So clearly something doesn't fit here...

My take-away from this thread thus far has been that for creationists, ignorance is bliss.

Is that WHY you find it impossible to tell us the process by which mindless nature implanted God's superior intelligence into prehistoric people? Or is ignorance of the Truth, bliss? Remember that evolution claims that it's another way to change Human intelligence, apart from sex. Please tell us of this process which happened once, but can never be repeated. Amen?

Life on this planet evolved from chemicals.

Another name for this process is Magical Chemical Generation or Abiogenesis. The Truth shows that life suddenly appeared some 3.8 Billion years ago as the single celled last universal common ancestor. Who told you that LUCA evolved from chemicals?

Note: Not looking for Bible quotes. I'm well aware what it says in Genesis.

What I want is an explanation beyond what is written in Genesis (or any other religious text) that specifically explains how it is possible to create life forms from scratch. Explain how a creator, supernatural or otherwise, would have created fully-formed life forms on Earth.

Describe the mechanisms, energies, forces, processes, etcs, that are involved in bringing fully-formed organisms into existence.

Please, you in reality have nothing but a confused jumbled mess that explains nothing that works....


The RNA world hypothesis: the worst theory of the early evolution of life (except for all the others)
So weird - I could not find, ANYWHERE, even critiques of creation science research regarding the creation.

Because creation scientists do not engage in research on their own beliefs. Likely because they fear what they will (not) find.

At least real scientists are looking into it, while creationists throw stones from the sidelines to hide the fact that their ancient middle eastern myths have no foundation in reality.

Curious - did you read more than the title?

You have it backwards. I'm asking you guys to explain to me.

After all, I'm not the one making claims about supernatural entities creating life.
Wow missed the point entirely. I was explaining why you won't get the answer you seek. it's because we cannot understand. And I explained why we can't. It's impossible. If you can explain what pointed out you would be able to comprehend an answer. And you'd be of an intelligence far beyond mine.

Indeed.

Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Because you can't research the unknowable. No matter how good of a scientist you are.

I don't care if it seems impossible. Do it anyways.

It doesn't seem impossible, it IS impossible. Just as impossible as it is for you to jump to Jupiter on your own two legs. I explained why. Can you begin to explain what I brought forward. If not then how do you expect us to do differently?

If it's that much of a mystery, how do you know that God did not act (at least in some instances) through natural processes?

Don't care. Do it anyway.

It's easy to claim "impossible" to avoid challenging yourself with answering the difficult questions. That's just an excuse though.

So far this thread is nothing but excuses and defensiveness. I (honestly) expected better from you guys.
