It shows that atheism and evolutionism are both a religion; while showing that Christianity is not.
Why do you guys even waste your time?One non-sequitur after another I see.
At any rate, you've already indicated you don't know what the word religion means, so I suppose it's a moot point.
Fixed that for youThis single line right here... instantly disqualifies you from any discussion onevolutionscience.
Why do you guys even waste your time?
Welcome to the world of faith.Creationists on this forum fascinate me. It's like visiting an alternate reality and interacting with representatives of an alien culture.
Five years later:6. Why do we keep bothering to reply to AV?

"Evolution" explains nothing. Rather it is a name that we give to the observation that biological inventions have changed over the time that they have existed.I'm sorry bu there's too much sciency talk and trying to be clever in this message for me to discern a clear, cogent point - especially one germane to the point I was making about evolution. Again, the origin of life on earth, be it abiogenesis, panspermia, creation by God or whatever, has zero effect on evolution.
Evolution only explains the diversity of life we see now and in the fossil record and only applies to already living things that reproduce and pass on genetic material to offspring.
Because gravity is repeatable and flasifiable. With a basic understanding of gravity I can demonstrate it right now. I just dropped a shopkins basket....see? Gravity.Physicists still haven't figured out what gravity is or developed a unified theory of gravity. Why isn't anyone here complaining about that?
To make this a bit clearer: it is generic diversity that evolved during that period.But it's still a terrible headline. The study concluded that 90% of animals living today evolved within 100,000 to 200,000 years ago. That's quite a bit different than what the headline suggests.
11 June 2018 Anguspure: Abiogenesis ignorance.The supposed magic that gets the ball of evolution moving up mount improbable and leaping up every step on the way is not repeatable, not testable and its adherants deny it's falsifiability.
11 June 2018 Anguspure: A lie that evolution explains nothing when it explains a lot."Evolution" explains nothing.
11 June 2018 Anguspure: Parrots a "biological diversity cannot occur in 3.8 billion years" Behe delusion?... It does in fact happen, but to say that it does not happen at a rate that could be extrapolated to provide explanation for biological diversity within the time frame allowed (3.8 billion years) is a massive understatement, and the truth is that Darwins theory is little more than a molecular fiddler that fine tunes and preserves species living in a given environment.
Look at the first "critique" and we see an obvious liar which you should have realized, AV1611VET.
The similar mechanisms and structures confirming the prediction are then listed.According to the theory of common descent, modern living organisms, with all their incredible differences, are the progeny of one single species in the distant past. In spite of the extensive variation of form and function among organisms, several fundamental criteria characterize all life. Some of the macroscopic properties that characterize all of life are (1) replication, (2) heritability (characteristics of descendents are correlated with those of ancestors), (3) catalysis, and (4) energy utilization (metabolism). At a very minimum, these four functions are required to generate a physical historical process that can be described by a phylogenetic tree.
If every living species descended from an original species that had these four obligate functions, then all living species today should necessarily have these functions (a somewhat trivial conclusion). Most importantly, however, all modern species should have inherited the structures that perform these functions. Thus, a basic prediction of the genealogical relatedness of all life, combined with the constraint of gradualism, is that organisms should be very similar in the particular mechanisms and structures that execute these four basic life processes.
Too bad the author isn't around for rebuttal, isn't it?Look at the first "critique" and we see an obvious liar which you should have realized, AV1611VET.
12 June 2018 AV1611VET: What makes the author a liar is his obvious lies that you did not recognize.Looks like it's his word against yours, eh?
The transition from a pre-biotic soup to a soup that contained a living thing took millions of years? I guess invoking millions of years is one way to haze the distinction between a living thing and a dead thing.11 June 2018 Anguspure: Abiogenesis ignorance.
It is irrational to expect that we repeat processes that took millions of years to happen.
No kidding batman.....and the mechanism of the beginning?The existence of life is the test that life began!
It is falsified and shown to be false daily. I believe Louis Pasteur is well known for recognising the principle.Abiogenesis via chemistry can easily be falsified.
As Dawkins has pointed out these things would not falsify chemical biogenesis (He is more than happy to consider panspermia, qualified by the idea that chemical biogenesis would have happened on the alien planet).Show that aliens created the first cells. Show that bacteria somehow arrived here from outer space. Gather scientific evidence that God exists and that God created the first cells.
The page shows me many things that are just as easily explained within an ID framework.FYI, for evolution: 29+ Evidences for Macroevolution has tests and how they passed. We have the classic falsifiability of finding rabbits in the Precambrian!
That much of the evidence can be shoe horned into an unintelligent framework says nothing.11 June 2018 Anguspure: A lie that evolution explains nothing when it explains a lot.
Evolution
29+ Evidences for Macroevolution
Clearly the bioligists that believe this have not considered thier own work.11 June 2018 Anguspure: Parrots a "biological diversity cannot occur in 3.8 billion years" Behe delusion?
No citation of Behe's published, peer revciwed paper on this. Biologists have no problem with today's biological diversity evolving over 3.8 billion years.
A specific example of this happening is......???A bit of "molecular fiddler" idiocy (DNA changing to give macroscopic changes and new species is not fiddling)
What? No small transitional changes leading to larger developments? So only large macroscopic inventions are permitted? So what is the mechanism of fine tuning that we see in Galapagos Finches?and then a bit of ignorance. If the environment does not change then selection does not happen and in Darwin's theory there is no fine-tuning.
Yes and many other variables make the whole concept only more implausible. If only it was as simple as Darwin thought.The modern fact and theory of evolution has other mechanisms that might not preserve species living in a given environment (genetic drift).
