HA! I love it Chalnoth! I've been saying for YEARS that I'd like to bring someone with a COMPOUND FRACTURE to a faith-healer to see the look on his face! Somehow, the power of god meets a limit when it comes to observable phenomena.

First of all, there have been many ice ages. Secondly, if evolutionists are mistaken, then we are mistaken, but why do creationists insist on calling us "liars"? Who is "lying" around here? We are not satanists, we are scientists. Thirdly, if dating rock strata, fossils, and the timeline...

Thank you, Chalnoth. This is truly fascinating. I've been reading about information theory recently, and this post is another clear explication of classical information theory. This forum has been in want of one for quite some time. It's refreshing to hear a real scientist at the forum...

I saw that article too, but "Eight Personal Rules for Doing Science" is hardly the same as "Eight Rules of Evolution," and either way, it's just some random article on the internet, not a standard, industry-endorsed "I-would-expect-that-everyone-should-know-this" text.

Googling "Eight Rules of Evolution" produced nothing!

"Golden Rule of Evolution"? "Eight Simple Rules of Evolution"? I'll be the first to tell you I've never heard of either one! This sounds like something you learned in Sunday school. I have never heard of the "Eight Rules," but that doesn't mean I don't understand evolution. Just becuase...

The term is "CONVERGANT EVOLUTION" The simplest (commonest) example is birds v. bats. Both have wings, but they evolved them separately.

I'm just asking for someone to take a stab at it. Then we could discuss...

PLEASE NOTE: I added a few hints/discussion points in the OP.

Well, I am an atheist and an evolutionist. If I were the first one to answer the questions, it would rather defeat the point. This thread was started a long time ago. [EDIT: Actually, this "test" was part of another thread a long time ago. This one has been here just over a week] Not one...

Wow. Supersport, just WOW. Based on the first two sentences of the OP, your argument is essentially as follows: Evolutionists needed to proclaim that genes are not affected or cued by their environments in order to assert that life evolved randomly. Your reasoning seems to go something...

Looks like 500+ blessings for anyone who answers! Any takers? Going once... going twice.... No one? How strange...

Creationist Test: 1. Does evolution suggest that chimpanzees are the ancestors of modern-day humans? 2. How does evolution suggest that complex structures composed of many different necessary structures can evolve from simpler ones lacking many of those structures? [EDIT: This is a reference...

Again, does anyone care to take the test?

The center of gravity of a slice of orange slice would lie INSIDE it. It's not too windy there. Stupid. You're trying to invent justifications for things that obviously make no sense. The writer said said the earth had four corners. He thought the earth had four corners. Numbers like pi, phi...

Anyone care to take either of these tests?

IF THE BIBLE IS PERFECTLY, LITERALLY TRUE, WHY DOES THE GENESIS 1 ACCOUNT OF CREATION CHRONOLOGICALLY CONTRADICT THE GENESIS 2 ACCOUNT OF CREATION? My answer: two stories, two writers, different messages. One was talking about the world as it was "actually created," the other took more of an...

It depends on how you look at it. First or all, there are multiple levels upon which the use of language can be understood. For example, many scientists make a distinction between being able to understand language versus being able to construct a new sentence. It's complicated, but consider...

1. Biology was around LONG before Darwin. Even the idea of evolution was around long before Darwin. 2. Whales are mammals and are decendants of land mammals. Water --> Land --> Water 3. Apes can't lie? Do you just make this stuff up or what? APES ARE COMMON AND HABITUAL LIARS!! Sue...
