    Can anyone explain how the moth got it's owl eyes?

    It's ok, whatever it was, the point is always just to contradict, and increase the post count.

    Why i stopped being a Christian and why i came back

    I asked a Jesuit here in Hong Kong about "...shalt not kill". I find Christianity to be a noble faith regardless of what i do or don't believe in the bible. I was troubled by that commandment - David kills Goliath, and it's ok. At the time I was still suffering ptsd from an assault and...

    Why i stopped being a Christian and why i came back

    For those in fundamentalist churches there's the problem of being taught things like that noahs ark is literal history, earth is 6k yrs old, etc. Things that make no sense, and are readily disproved. So the individual is in a poor position, that accepting what they are taught is at the expense...

    the myth of flat earth debunked again

    Science does not deal with proof. Anyone unaware of that most basic concept is in a very poor position to offer science lessons.

    Generally it's to say " God is on my side, I cannot be wrong".

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    Another huge difference was that said theories corresponded with the existing data, facts known at the time. Creationism has had no data any of the time. It's been high centered for millenia.

    the myth of flat earth debunked again

    True science as per your definition. Those who know real (actual) science are aware that science does not deal in proof. "Learn to crawl, before you try to run!" ( with the big boys n girls)

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    To me the "otherwise" of what the Bible says appears most unclear, with a huge range of opinions none of which can be validated.

    Time to return to yecland and brag how you argued a whole roomful of atheists to a standstill.

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    The huge resistance to knowledge from those with rigid ( and infallible) beliefs is probably proportionate to the shattering effect it would have to discover it was all nonsense. People who have realized all is not as presented are the only ones who escape North Korea, but even they find that...

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    Of course you soon hit a wall. That the way of life. Science will sure take you further than anything else will, though. As for the complexity of a cell, why choose that? Everything is complex and extraordinary far beyond our small power to comprehend how extraordinary things really are. How...

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    Creationists tend to overdescribe the nature of uncertainty/ lack of proof and change in science generally with the facile and trite "science always changes, Gods Word is always the same". It's an eye roller for anyone including Christians, who actually have made the effort to study.

    Historical Creationism: Literal Genesis, Old Earth

    Note that as you went to oddball / crank ideas and or to the mists of history for "Theories" (in quotation marks as they don't meet today's standards for what a theory is). Of course some theories are disproved. You kind of overstate your case, Regardless anyone who is scientifically literate...
