And none of this has anything to do with a fish being the ancestor to a human being. I have never once denied microevolution. After all, Satan's lies often have an element of truth. My dispute is with darwinism - and darwinism is only empowered under the assumption that the supernatural doesn't...

Very true. And there are a lot of "Christians" who are going to be in for a rude awakening.

People once thought people were more like pigs. "Genetic relatedness" is a human invention. So is categorization - for instance, I have seen people claim the Bible is mistaken because in Job it refers to a whale as a great fish. But it's humans who create the parameters and categories. Science...

Oh please. The only reason you are claiming that I don't understand the so-called science is because I flat out reject it. It has nothing to do with the fact that I won't humor you. In your mind, no one who truly understands it could ever possibly reject it. That's the hypocricy, and I refuse to...

So unless I practice the delusion, I have no right to call it a delusion. Gotcha.

No, I have already adequately expressed my position throughout this thread. I don't owe you or anyone else a "scientific" explanation, seeing as how I do not recognize the authority of man-made science, and doing so would only serve to provide it false legitimacy. You might as well ask an...

Easy answer - confirmation bias. People see what they want to see. Whether it be faces in clouds, astrological signs in stars, or proof for darwinism is a handful of decrepit old fossils.

It's one thing to talk about evolution in terms of adaptation and claim that there is a boatload of interconnecting evidence, but laymen or not, I have seen absolutely nothing to convince me that a fish can become a man no matter how much time or how many intermediary stages you throw in. "Each...

Macroevolution and observing that the sun is hot isn't even in the same ballpark. Not even the theory of gravity can be that clear cut. The idea that human beings evolved from ape-like creatures is not something that we "see with our eyeballs". Saying that a majority of scientists believe they...

Anyone who leaves the church does so due to the fact that many are called but few are chosen. Those who belong to Christ are secure in Him, and no one can pluck them out of His hand. Those who love not the truth can find whatever reason for betraying Christ - we don't have to give them one...

That reeks of pure desperation. How can you have any credibility at all when you won't even admit when you are so clearly in the wrong? Within the exact context of the discussion, saying the supernatural "cannot be said" to exist is exactly the same thing as saying that there is no evidence for...

Yet another example of how you will deceptively misrepresent one's argument just enough so as to attack it more easily. Why do I even bother with someone like you? I was speaking of evidence - not absolute certainty. And you know this. This is what you quoted: "Regardless of whether or not you...

[Staff Edit] The Bible has never been, nor will it ever be, "debunked". "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away." -Matthew 24:35 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness -2 Timothy 3:16...

So now we are talking about methodological naturalism and circular reasoning again? It's not hard to understand. When the methodology of observing a thing precludes any consideration of another thing, how is it that the former can be used as evidence of the latter's absence? Regardless of...

Honest YE creationists openly admit that there is much evidence for evolution and an ancient Earth. Post 320 Hmmm... most plumbers (and scientists) would point out that your assumption is wrong. post 358 Those are just two examples I remember off the top of my head. I am sure there are plenty...

I am not going to go back through the thread and look for every little instance. Maybe you are petty enough for that sort of thing, but I don't have the time for it. But several times you have appealed to authority without providing citation. Such as "plumbers will tell you" or "geologists will...

On the contrary, it would be much better to see someone with a knowledge of God's Word. Knowing the beliefs of some long dead unbeliever will profit a man nothing. But those who know and obey the Truth will abide forever. But as to which knowledge is most pleasing to encounter, it really does...

I am not making false accusations against anyone. On the contrary, I have tried to be respectful of you seeing as how you are my elder. But it's hard for me to ignore the very dishonest and manipulative manner of debating that I see on display here. For one thing, you commonly misrepresent...

I can drop a cup right now and watch it plummet to the floor. I have never seen a fish turn into a man. If you want to promote a belief in evolution as a theory sufficient to explain the origin of all complex life, then unfortunately, that is your prerogative as a biologist. But to say that...

Laugh it up - but your buddy is of a deceptive spirit, and you are not far behind. It is well understood that the KJV of the Bible is antiquated and inaccurate. Not only has the meaning of many of the words changed in the 400+ years since it was commissioned, but the understanding of proper...
