    Can God undo the past?

    Question: Could God bring it about that the past did not happen? Or, is such a thing impossible? Consideration 1: The past, like the present and future, is wholly contingent. That which is contingent is possible, and therefore not necessary. And yet, it seems patently absurd that the past could...

    If Jesus could be turned into an Elephant, He truly could be the elephant in the room?

    Hi there, So this is a crazy thought I had about Evolution. I am posting it here, because basically I hate getting mired with this sought of hyperbole: it's like the Holy Spirit says "you wanted to argue the point, make an argument, make a case". Only then the argument seems repetitive and the...

    Syncopating competing "evolutions", can't happen without "design"

    Hi there, So, simple truth: The idea is simply this: if you have differing members of a species, all intent on winning the same mate, that mate won't be able to bond with a particular member (of the species) without a) comparing her design with his, b) prompting his design with hers and c)...

    Biblical Chronology: From Adam To The End Of The World (4430 Anno Mundi - Moses To Saul)

    If you haven't already please read Biblical Chronology: From Adam To The End Of The World (3919 Anno Mundi - Abraham To Moses) before continuing here. Next up we have to account for the time from Moses to Saul. In order to do so correctly we must understand that 47 Years passed from the 80th...

    Did God create aliens?

    We know that there are angels and animals as well as humans. But do you believe and can you demonstrate that God created aliens in his enormous act of creation. If the universe is magnificent desolation except for earth, why all that wasted space and effort? Are we meant to fill it ourselves?

    Evidence that Genesis is History and Not Myth - Creation

    Hi all, As promised in my other thread is a video tha was down some time ago but I listened to it today. In the video Mr. Micheal Jones goes through how Genesis is history but not YEC type things. I thought it a good video to put here for those that are not closed minded. Here is the video...

    How Evolution Can Still Be Evidence of Design - video

    Hi all, I watched a discussion or rather listened to one as I was getting ready yesterday and this Gentlemen had two scientist on who were both I believe were both Christians. They discuss how Evolution can be evidence of design unlike the fundamentalist who says that Evolution can no be...

    Wait. So you're saying if a selection pressure is greater than the Devil, the Devil will evolve?

    Hi there, So this is bordering on untestable conjecture, but I thought it might be helpful, just as an exercise (sort of like philosophy has "thought experiments", they're not strictly science but they are helpful). You see, the current design of "Evolution" supposes that everything is...

    Promise me, that if Evolution doesn't work out, you will come back to considering "Creation"?

    Hi there, So just a thought for what our priorities, are, here. You have decided one way or the other, to give Evolution a try... you have decided that the weight of evidence favours species that change over time, one can only assume in a way that is deistic, if it is to prove better than the...

    Let's see: if Evolutional potential for a place was used up, you would gamble with mutation?

    Hi there, So the hypothetical here is: the potential for Evolution being used up - as in all resources for Evolution being taken up - you would gamble with mutation, to motivate a change in locale? The luck you got from the gamble (with mutation) would be your best bet? Like you don't even...

    Compounding adapations creates more flourishing, than diversifying adaptations, in the end

    Hi there, So this is what I have come to understand, in thinking about Creation and how it leads to survival: compounding adaptations creates more flourishing, than diversifying adaptations, in the end. This means that it is not up for competition, to eliminate lesser survivors, for being less...

    Did Creation evolve, as an adaptation of adaptations?

    Hi there, So I had this simple insight (which I wanted to share with the Physical and Life Science forum, but moreso you - the believers - first) that evolution can explain "Creation". Creation, if you will, is the use of design, to differentiate the predicted but alternative "Evolutions", so...

    Do Creationists Believe in Talking Snakes?

    In Genesis 3, a serpent, or snake, talks with Eve. In Genesis 3:14-15, God says that the serpent will lose its legs. God doesn’t say that the serpent will no longer be able to talk or no longer have the intelligence to talk. We know there are no talking snakes today. Snakes do not have the vocal...

    Not that "before Evolution: you must become a fish", but Jesus never said "before man, be ape"

    Hi there, So there are two directions this thread is going to take: one, is that you can believe what you want; two, you can distinguish what you believe from the world. The first point, pertains to the idea that I am not asking you to be something you are not: you are a man and I understand...

    Given no new selection pressures, the peak adaptation of a species need not provoke change

    Hi there, So it seems evident that there is a massive unknown, here: what if there are no "new" selection pressures? What if the driving force behind change, is answered? Would you say 'no, Evolution needs to invent selection pressures, to provoke itself with'? What would be the sense of that...

    What if I share, as a rule? It really makes no difference, what I could share with you?

    Hi there, So I am not doing more than corner "a premise" and seeing if that acts as a success, in relation to your assessment of what it means. The premise is that "sharing is a constructive addition to Evolution" (subtext: the more Evolution shares, the better it is) and I am cornering it, by...

    So I've worked out, that Creation is just as true as Evolution (really?)

    Hi there, So yes, you are privileged to hear my take on Evolution before I brave the waters of the Science forum - its actually very simple: Evolution promises change, through successive adaptations; Creation promises change, through variations of a kind. What does this mean? It means that...

    LDS Jewish Creation ideas

    "CREATION: By: Kaufmann Kohler, Emil G. Hirsch The bringing into existence of the world by the act of God. Most Jewish philosophers find in (Gen. i. 1) creation ex nihilo (). The etymological meaning of the verb , however, is "to cut out and put into shape," and thus presupposes the use of...

    Genesis 1:1-5

    In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he...

    If "Evolution" is true, making Evolution interesting will be 'selected for'?

    Hi there, So I actually had the idea for making Evolution "interesting", earlier - but I wanted to talk about an extension of it. Before we get into it thought, let's just be clear what I mean by "making Evolution interesting"! I think it means: taking a concept that has less said about it, and...
