A question for Old Earth Creationists

[AV1611VET]

Many people could not believe that the Earth moved about the Sun, and yet it did.

Many people could not believe that microscopic organisms, too small to see, caused infectious diseases, and yet they did.

Many people could not believe that light could have both behave like a wave or like a particle, and yet it does.

Many believed that taking Thalidomide would ease their prenatal symptoms, and it did.

Most people are tired of hearing about thalidomide from you, I believe that the continued pointless mentioning of it will just annoy people, and it will.

Science has nothing to do with the bible, nor does the bible have anything to do with science.

Now, explain the fossil record without evolution using science.

You still do not understand. If you do not respond appropriately again, then I will leave you alone.

There is no problem with science. Lives created in sequence and died in sequence and are buried in sequence. That is a simple scientific idea. No problem with that.

Your problem just started after you recognized that. I am afraid you still do not see the problem.

Then do enlighten us, what is the specific problem you are talking about?

 

[Loudmouth]

Lives created in sequence and died in sequence and are buried in sequence.

Why is that sequence identical to what we would expect from evolution?

 

[juvenissun]

I have said that on page 5.

 

[juvenissun]

You get it backward.

I thought AV said he would stop beating this dead horse, I guess I was mistaken.

 

[PsychoSarah]

Is human the most specialized creature?

If you say yes, you implied that the evolution has a direction of change. Hasn't it?

Humans aren't even close to being the most specialized to our environment. Which is why our species can live in so many different environments.

 

[Loudmouth]

You get it backward.

How so?

Nice strawman AV, pharmaceuticals are a completely different thing. They are driven by money and profit. The science and scientific research we discuss here are not.

Promise?

There is no problem with science. Lives created in sequence and died in sequence and are buried in sequence. That is a simple scientific idea. No problem with that.

I can agree with that, except I'm not quite sure what you mean by "created in sequence". Could you elaborate on that a bit? Thanks.

The only problem I have is seeing science being misrepresented, and I'm not talking about another opinion which is quite different. I have no problem with anyone's beliefs.

It should.

As long as you guys defend science with your No True Scotsman Principle, [hopefully] there will be others to counterbalance its God-forsaken aftereffects.

It won't be the first time.

I think you just like upsetting people, wasn't driving Sayre off of this forum enough indication for you that this is not an acceptable thing to keep bringing up? Need I drive you away from threads by mentioning sex every time I see this brought up?

Money and profit from what? something the Girl Scouts baked in an oven?

Sayre drove herself off.

After mentioning having a stillborn, I countered with my niece having had two miscarriages -- which she has.

She then was appalled at the fact that I didn't reply with a modicum of sorrow for her plight and left ... trying to make it look like I was the bad guy.

I didn't even get to offer to hold the door open for her, like I did the Goon Squad that filed out of here single file some time ago.

 

[bhsmte]

It won't be the first time.

Regarding what you say and what you do, very likely yes.

 

[RickG]

Money and profit from what? something the Girl Scouts baked in an oven?

You know very well what I'm talking about.

 

[RickG]

Let's look at it a different way AV. Do scientists advertise their research on TV, radio, news papers, and magazines for profit? No! But pharmaceutical companies do.
