Coccyx - tale of a creationist disinformation post

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

I'll just go ahead and assume God told nature to design snowflakes the way they appear.

... and?

 

[AV1611VET]

... and?

And I'll claim the universe was designed, created, and runs intelligently.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

And I'll claim the universe was designed, created, and runs intelligently.

You can certainly make that claim.

 

[AV1611VET]

You can certainly make that claim.

Do you consider acadamaniacs experts on unintelligence and/or nonintelligence?

As Warden said, you are free to make that claim. It is unfalsifiable, and nobody will try to talk you out of it. Where creationists are on thin ice is in making the further claim that the theory of evolution somehow rules it out.

Are crop circles designed intelligently?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Are crop circles designed intelligently?

Since they're deliberate hoaxes, then logically yes.

That's beyond my level of academics to discuss.

 

[AV1611VET]

Okay ... was just wondering.

In your opinion, who designed them? hoaxters?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Okay ... was just wondering.

In your opinion, who designed them?

... humans.

 

[AV1611VET]

... humans.

People?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

People?

... yes. What are you getting at?

 

[Speedwell]

... yes. What are you getting at?

You should know better by now than to ask him that.

I support what God's word says, and I recognize that 100% of your arguments about things that supposedly take millions or billions of years to happen, are based upon assumptions and you think these assumptions are more valid than God's word about the past.

And yet you reject what (if he exists) he has written with great clarity in the rocks and in DNA.

Please lose the tired claims about evolutionists' Assumptions. There is no greater assumption than the assumption that the Bible is the literal word of God.

As I've told others and will tell you now, I think things like Old Earth Creation and Theistic Evolution are simply mechanisms invented to help bridge the gap for people whose faith is in the assertions of the scientific community.

I would disregard anyone who had faith in the assertions of the scientific community. Science has no truck with faith. Science is based upon evidence and hypothesis making and experimentation and validation or rejection of hypotheses. All of these and any related methodologies are the antithesis of faith.

What better way to win souls to Christ (who would otherwise reject) because [1] it satisfies the ego for those who think they've, on their own merit, discovered what God has done during creation and [2] it satisfies the intellectualism side of those who think they're reading between the lines, unlocking the special secret hidden mystery of the Genesis account that everybody else is missing.

How arrogant of you! In my experience those Christians who accept the scientific consensus on these matters do so believing that the majesty of deep time and the awesome nature of the evolutionary process reflect on the power and subtlety of God and they feel humbled before it. I think you owe an apology to those Christians for your offensive misreading of their motives.

I'll let you and the others here who just can't bring themselves to believing God's word regarding creation kick that around for a while.

I've kicked it straight into touch, where it belongs, and called time.

 

[AV1611VET]

... yes. What are you getting at?

Angels are considered persons: that includeds fallen angels.

 

[AV1611VET]

You should know better by now than to ask him that.

Yup ... you might learn something.

So the path a Roomba takes isn't by intelligent design?

Actually I think Roomba is smarter than Intelligent Design


( Hate those things they’re so insectoid)

And I'll claim the universe was designed, created, and runs intelligently.

If it runs intelligently, by all means, explain the function of black holes. Intelligent designs shouldn't include high density singularities that draw in matter and energy for no reason, I'd be like having a random hole in the floor of a car that serves no purpose but is a hazard.
