    Is it designed?

    Hey there folks I've tried this several times on this forum already over the years. Every time though, it ended up in a beat-around-the-bush fest. Let's see if it goes differently this time. In this thread, I'ld like to have ID proponents to apply their "id theory" to a couple of examples and...

    Morality and/vs sin

    Hi there all, (note: when I use the word "sin" in this post, I'm talking about it in the religious sense) In your religious opinion, is there a connection between morality and sin? If the bible says that X is a sin, is there then a moral implication in said action? Could it be, for example...

    Hi there folks I'ld like to know from creationists out there... What testable predictions does the creation model make? And how exactly do they naturally flow from the creation model? What is your, let's say, top 3 of testable predictions? EDIT: I ask in context of biology.

    What is a miracle?

    This is an off shoot of another thread where the subject came up. I felt like this question deserved a thread of its own. So in this thread, I'ld like theists to provide me with a definition of what miracle is. I'm looking for a detailed, usefull and practical definition here. The way I see a...

    What is "design" and how to detect it

    Hi, As it came up, once again, in another thread, I'ld like to invite the ID crowd here once more to define what they exactly mean by the term "design", how it can be objectively detected and what the null hypothesis is. It is my understanding that they use the loaded version of the word...

    [PERMANENTLY CLOSED] Dead children go straight to heaven

    Hi there, Several users of the forum have expressed their belief that every child that dies before reaching a mental state that makes them accountable for their actions, would go straight to heaven. To me, this has some rather nasty implications when I put all the pieces together. So first...

    Fundamentalism and global warming denial correlation

    Hi there, Long time since I've started a thread myself. I notice a very solid correlation between denial of the science of climate change and belief in theism. "very solid", since it seems that the more fundamentalist the theist, the stronger the opposition to climate change sciences. In...

    My second "Intelligent Design Theory" challenge

    Since I.D. advocates here failed to meet my first challenge on the usefullness and applicability of this "theory" (as it stands now: 30 pages and not a single attempt at meeting the challenge), I decided to come up with a new challenge. Perhaps this time, a I.D. advocates will succeed in...

    Why the bible?

    This thread is a follow up on a post I made in another thread. Apparantly it caused a bit of a stir and since we were going very off topic, I decided this topic deserved its own thread. The topic came up after I saw EternalDragon mention that he read the quran. I asked him what it is about...
