And that probably explains why the Nazis banned all of Darwin's books and burned every copy found in public libraries!
(I seriously doubt that you have any understanding of "Darwinism" or "Eugenics". If you did, you wouldn't confuse the two! Yet another clue that you are a Poe.)
.
But if you are insisting on confusing ULTIMATE CAUSATION (which is the focus of theology) and PROXIMATE CAUSATION (which is a focus of science), then you are bark...<snip>
I don't much get what your point is here. And you do realize I am fully aware of the existence of pubmed, right? EDIT: Just to say a little more. I had to use sources from there to write a paper on the efficacy of several generations of oncolytic viruses, their limitations, and their advantages versus current treatments.
Skywriting, I could just as easily ask you, "How does gravity benefit the earth by reuniting items with its surface?"
So why do you assume that the methodological naturalism of science is somehow required to assign "purpose" (or even WILL) to matter and the laws of physics?
ANSWER: The chemical bonds and other atomic/molecular forces which explain all chemistry.
Those laws of physics explain all sorts of "happenings" including life from non-life. Personally, because I affirm the abiogenesis described in the first book of the Bible,
Both theistic scientists and atheistic scientists (and every other kind of scientist) can agree that the physical laws of the universe which describe chemical bonds, valences, electron sharing, etc. cause life to happen.
Now before you get confused by the methodological naturalism of science, consider a rainstorm watering crops. What CAUSES the rain to condense from clouds (using small particulates as the starting point of each drop) and provide water for plant growth?
[/I][/INDENT]ANSWER: It's called the SUN. It provides solar energy that powers photosynthesis, the water cycle, and many other processes which allow life to thrive on earth.
The second question is answered by basic physics. But if you are insisting on confusing ULTIMATE CAUSATION (which is the focus of theology) and PROXIMATE CAUSATION (which is a focus of science), then you are barking up the wrong tree. Why are you insistent on addressing a theological question which interests Bible-believing Christians to scientists who are more interested in the PROXIMATE CAUSES?
Unless you are talking about 'we' collectively, what happens if the purpose you make clashes with the purpose someone else makes; and if you are talking collectively, is that the consensus of opinion of the UK-Labour party?We live, we make our own purpose, we die, our bodies reassembled into the chemicals of other forms of life.
I mean we as in each person to their own.Unless you are talking about 'we' collectively, what happens if the purpose you make clashes with the purpose someone else makes; and if you are talking collectively, is that the consensus of opinion of the UK-Labour party?
So it's a dog-eat-dog world, is it?I mean we as in each person to their own.
Well the government should make laws so that people who think like pure evolutionists are kept in check, shouldn't it?If by clash I presume you mean. Person A and B wants object X, only 1 can own it so they fight. This is still purpose of their own wants.
I only chose Labour as my party as I believe it's the closest to my ideals for the UK, however I do not favour in strong support any of the major parties of the UK, the government is a horrific shambles.
I do not understand how the Labour Party ties into this though, could you please elaborate?
It essentially is a dog-eat-dog world. Nature is brutal and unforgiving. However we as higher more advanced species with large brains and cognitive thinking have developed a wide range of emotions and a understanding for community. A biological basis for morality one may say.So it's a dog-eat-dog world, is it?

And Klebold & Harris, did they have small, non-cognitive thinking brains?It essentially is a dog-eat-dog world. Nature is brutal and unforgiving.

Why is decision & belief different from each other?No; People chose to not eat sometimes. That's a decision.
All matter flows to it's most worthless state.
Evolution is part of the degradation process.
Why would anything fight it? As these sites point out.
All these people worshiping the concept of evolution
and not one basic law of physics to support the idea.

Heat Death of the Universe : Discovery News
Purpose is something that humans use to give meaning for existance. There is no purpose in the universe except the neurological challenges and goals we set ourselves which ultimately end at death.

Be unwearied maybe evolution will invent eternal life. Opps it cant because it depends on death to purge the unfit.
Sorry evolution must purge the deleterious mutations… just the facts man…
Aren't things getting worse?Evolution will invent eternal life maybe.
