You are avoiding answering a very simple question. Nothing more, nothing less.


If you won't give me an honest, straightforward answer in public why would I be interested in a private conversation?

Don't respond to me again, thanks.

See, your trying to get me banned

Trying to start a fight so i insult your belief system, And i'm not going to do it, i respect your belief.

You should also support mine.

I'm not here to argue, I'm here to discuses how animals will act after humans are gone.

But i keep getting questioned on other topics.
I'm asking you if we should believe claims of the supernatural with no corroborating evidence. Why that should lead to a ban is beyond me.

I get that.

Then don't question me on my belief on evolution.
So do you want to learn what science really believes about evolution or are you content with your mistaken notion?

I know what science says, is says many different things, to many different people.

I have studied it for years.

Looked at all the documentation, so called fossils and everything.

Took it is high school and other places.

But i do know what science says about DNA.

But, just to know, what is your scientific data?

That's not at all convincing. It sounds like you have a cereal packet summary of the concept. That's not a sound basis on which to reject it.

"So called fossils". The "so called" suggests you do not think that fossils are the remains of previously living lifeforms. Is that so? If so, what is your reasoning? If not, what did you mean by it?

Still, it is not scientific evidence. No book can be. The Bible is no more scientific evidence of creationism than Origin of Species is evidence of evolution.

You know, I've never really thought about that before...

Ever notice that evolutionists never attempt to use Origin of Species as evidence for evolution? Like, that literally never happens. It's almost always creationists who bring it up and/or even mention Darwin. And they almost always use the Bible as direct evidence of the truth of their beliefs.

Evolutionists recognize Darwin's contribution in the form of his observations and ideas and then, rather than just stopping there and citing his works as the Theory, go out and make their own observations and expand his central idea based on those continued observations and new discoveries.

Such a simple thing, but profound.

I disagree, all the evidence of GOD and satan is scattered in all religions all over the world, statues i can see, depictions I can read and touch.

Snakes of satan in every culture.

Places Jesus walked and places real events of the bible took place, all over the world.

Billions of believers all in recorded time.

You are telling me there is some evidence some where that proves the worlds evidence of God wrong.

Sorry, I will never believe any of it.

I will pray for you that the living spirit of God opens your eyes to love and truth.
There's really no contradiction - the evidence supporting evolution is demonstrable objective scientific evidence about the world. The evidence you describe of God and satan and Jesus, etc., is evidence of people's subjective beliefs about the world.

So people (us) are humans who have evolved sophisticated cognitive faculties that enable them to develop and hold sophisticated abstract beliefs, including the religious beliefs you describe.

The fact that different individuals and different cultures have different sets of religious beliefs, many of which contradict each other, and none of which are objectively demonstrable, is what suggests that these are subjective interpretations of the world rather than objective descriptions and explanations of it.

Why do you hate lies?

We are animals, we can lie, its ok.

There is no sin or wrong.

Animals

Kill
Eat each other
crave each others blood even

All animals and all insects do this.

So why does a lie upset you?

I'm only showing the difference to god made humans to god created animals.
And that little thing we all have as humans.
Human morral emotions.
You have an explanation for why I hate lies. My personal one is that it stems from the philosophies that appealed to me as an adult and from how my parents and community raised me as a child.

Regardless about your belief about the origin of morals, you clearly also believe the truth to be important.

I would appreciate if you demonstrated those morals and no longer present falsehoods about what evolutionary science says or what people who accept evolution believe.

I'm not a Christian... but aren't lions supposed to be lying down with lambs?
(Do you see them as allegorical lions and lambs?)
It sounds like a good thing, so I'm not worried that I don't understand it.

How else does the Devil contradict God???!!

It is ridiculous, since it's not possible.
If a humanoid species came about from dogs, it wouldn't be a human. It would be a canid.

When there is no more people there will no longer be an earth.
When Jesus returns again he will collect the Christians who are alive, the nonchristians for judgement and destroy the earth and universe.

note.
animals prey upon one others and only compete for territory or mates. Unlike humans they don't fight for political, economic or religous reasons.
Pretty sure the Earth did just fine before there were Homo Sapiens and will be fine long after. Of course until the Sun swells into a Red Giant swallowing the Earth along with all the other inner rocky planets.
As an aside, what a delightful deity you propose, not just the Earth but the whole Universe will be destroyed? What did the other animals do to deserve this, what sin did quarks partake in to deserve destruction?

I'll bite.
What evidence do you have that animals 'sin'?
What evidence do you have that quarks are capable of sinning?

Seems I've not conveyed my intention very well there. Those statements were in response to a claim that Jesus will come and destroy not just the Earth but the Universe which begs silly questions like I proposed.

I honestly think you have some misunderstandings.

To clarify, do you accept that patterns of DNA similarity can be used to demonstrate paternity and ancestry in humans?

As Jesus created everything the claim that he will one dayu destroy everything is not silly.
