Computer program "mutate"

[Herman Hedning]

Can anyone here express a "zillion" in scientific notation? I've always been curious how large one is

Obviously it is expressed as 10[sup]Z[/sup]. When the arguments employing this number are becoming increasingly boring you can add more zillions, like this 1[sup][/sup]

But didn't God create Satan? Also, how do you know Satan didn't create genetic algorithms to trick Christians into accepting evolution?

God created lucifer but lucifer created satan; so no, God didnt create satan

God created lucifer but lucifer created satan; so no, God didnt create satan

So by your same argument that God created genetic algorithms, didn't God also create 9/11, Hitler, and the Holocaust since he created Lucifer? Or do you finally see the problem with attributing all the credit to God creating GA's?

Personally, I think it would make more sense to say God created the universe, but we are held responsible for our own actions since we have free will. Thus, things like Hitler, the Holocaust, genetic algorithms, and such were created by humans (or by human society).

its man who distorts what God created; God doesnt create the distortions; man does

Wow, might as well throw out all patents, looks like God created all of it. Sorry, Edison. I'm not sure what your goal or what your argument even is or how it even pertains to this entire post. Could you clarify why you felt it was needed to throw in the "God created genetic algorithms" and how it affects the discussion on the validity of genetic algorithms?

it means that they didnt create themselves

Of course GA's didn't create themselves. Computer scientists created them as a search algorithm. Still not sure where God comes into the discussion.

God created lucifer but lucifer created satan; so no, God didnt create satan

I thought only God could create? You just stated that God created everything. How can Lucifer create things? Is Lucifer a God, too? Are you a polytheist?

God created the scientists; without God, there would be no algorithms

when satan creates something, its not an actual creation; it just looks like it, but we may believe it nonetheless

So you do believe God created 9/11, the Holocaust, etc? By your same argument, without God, these things would've never happened? What a cruel God you worship.

I feel like I've just walked in a circle.

no, satan did those things, not God; youre just not seeing it; God creates and satan distorts Gods creation

Well that was a fun derailment but the purpose of this thread is to give evidence by analogy that evolution is possible and we're still waiting for a counterargument from you or someone else. And are you seriously going to make me find this program and post it? Surely you jest.

I think Satan sent you here to distort this thread, Dukey.

Sorry for the derail. I was bored, and was waiting for a program to finish running. However, I should've stopped, because it felt like my brain just oozed out of my head.

How can someone say that everything was created by God, then deny things were created by God?

 

[random_guy]

God created Lucifer; without God, there would be no Satan to create the Holocaust

Fixed.

 

[psychedelicist]

God created lucifer but lucifer created satan; so no, God didnt create satan

But wait...

God created the scientists; without God, there would be no algorithms

So god created lucifer who created satan so technically god did not create satan yes?

But then he takes credit for inventing algorithms that, in reality scientists (that he created) invented? Seems a little contradictory...

 

[wagsbags]

I think random guy had it right.

I guess since we showed evidence that evolution works through genetic algorithms, Dukey panicked, and thought hundreds of thousands of Christians would all turn atheist. He had to do something, and that post was something.

Dukey is somewhat of an enigma. I can’t tell if he’s for real. In GA, he went on and on about jaywalking being against God’s will. “Hellfire for evil jaywalkers.” Who knows?

 

[wagsbags]

He does seem a little....you know.
