We do not have to "ask". The Creator left enough evidence behind for us to study. We know it is not a young Earth.... and by the way CreationISM is a scientific theory, but it was falsified, long ago.Upward Bound said:Creation is truth in a young earth; Evolution...are you sure that's your final answer?

the best ones are the ones that survive and have offspring. Surely you know this by now, it is such an astonishingly simple concept.napajohn said:Great lucaspa, you haven't answered the question...how do you determine what design is "better"..saw your thread on bad designs like the rabbit who redigests their food, panda thumb, sperm count..yet they function and survive..yet you find flaw in his digestive design..likewise the millions of sperm needed..remember lucaspa,the world is a product of a fallen world..who knows what the design was prior to the Fall
Not at all. When the pharisees asked Jesus if it was good to pay taxes, how did he respond? Did he engage in the debate of how to live under the rule of an oppressive occupation force?Upward Bound said:The previous arguements don't appear to belong in this thread.

Er, seriously. This forum has an outstanding amount of resources within it pertaining specifically to evolution and the falsities of Creationism. I kind of wish people read things when joining new forums before typing and then pressing the post button. Either that or he's a napa"The Apprentice Sower of Straw-Hominids"john clone.

actually, here is the number to icr:

call them and see if they can answer your questions or see if they can have a faculty or grad student explain why they believe such trash...You guys should succeed since Science, truth and all the Evidence is on your side.

I don't think CalTech is admitting many ICR grads. Let's face it - IT ISN'T A REAL SCHOOL - it''s one step (or more) below a cosmetics & beauty college.
just say your scared to even call..i can respect that..who knows maybe an adjunct professor may take you up on it and expose evolution..and you wouldn't want that since to some of you atheist thats like your religion.Arikay said:I would say quite a few steps below, as cosmetology schools actually teach real chemistry.

Arikay said:LoL. why call, verbal debate is pointless with creationists, written debate on the other hand, is much different. How come most written debate requests I have heard about go unanswered?
I haven't e-mailed ICR but I have e-mailed both AIG and DrDino with corrections, AIG missed the entire point and couldn't come up with an answer and DrDino gave me an automated response. I wonder if ICR can do any better.
I see your witchcraft mind reading is working again, since you were able to read atheists minds and learn their religion.Do you listen to anyone here? I mean seriously, have you heard anyone here call it their religion or treat it like a religion? If so, I think we are reading different forums.
napajohn said:No but some of you treat it like a replacement for God..and yes I believe most scientist in the Academy of sciences claim to be atheists hence the real need to defend evolution at whatever cost
Arikay said:Its about as much of a replacement for god as gravity is a replacement for god.
It does allow atheists to be more honest atheists because there is an answer other than "goddidit" when we look at our origins, but that doesn't rule out god at all, just says that its possible for it to happen without god,{/quote}
No when you have automatically ruled out All possibilities then that is when you have gone from being an unbiased scientist to one who has limited the possibilities...I believe the basis for not believing in God is that there are implications that must face that person with regards to the way he/she will live his life..If Mohammad came down from heaven instead of Jesus, Christians would have to face the same dilemma that they were wrong and that they should change..the atheists are just afraid of facing the consequences of God..it removes them( man ) from being master of their own lives.
and many more are starting to have an impact in this atheistic-dominatedYes, Many scientists are atheists, but not all, there are quite a few theists that seem perfectly fine in science.

based on your unsupported and biased opinion, this is funny..no most scientists today are products of academia that preach evolution..creationismThe odd thing is that if anything, creationism creates more atheist scientists. Creationist groups often have a mentality of "you either pick god or science, but not both" and when a scientist hears a false claim from creationism, like the decay of the magnetic field, for the 1000th time, and creationists say you must pick science or god, they pick science and throw away god, because they can not believe false information, but they were told to pick, so they did.
so, if anything, creationism can push scientists away from christianity.
often occurs when scientists truly see the scope of the problems and go from being dissenting evolutionists to having no opinion or creationists...People who claim to be creationists (not necessarily YECS) usually have done so out of the evidence and arguments against evolution..someone like myself and Frank Schrwin and Morris and Behe come to mind
For example, say you met a guy that said you can either believe the earth is spherical or believe in the almighty Yefusa, but not both because the almighty Yefusa says the earth is flat.
What would you pick?
Science and a spherical earth?
or
Yefusa and a flat earth?
try that argument at ICR and DI and they will laugh at you..its like going to the Apollo in blackface and trying to do black jokes..see if they won't hang you...flat earth..evolutionists love to associate creationists with this..so ridiculous
Should we also have all the Bible belt churches closed for preaching biblical literalism to the masses? Of course not, napajohn. There are no laws against having beliefs. ICR is there to support the beliefs of biblical literalism. As long as people want to believe it, ICR will remain open. What difference does it make if the literal interpretation is true or not?napajohn said:just wish you guys could spend your evidence and wealth of "scientific knowledge" and debate some of these guys on ICR or Discovery institute..
Why don't you try to turn some of them onto this site? I would be quite interested in that debate. You havn't been doing a very good job by using their quote mine.napajohn said:wouldn't it be great if 1 of you could turn them on to this cite or get a dialogue with the faculty or even call the dDEpt of Education and have ICR shut down for teaching such false concepts
They won't close down as long as there is a 'market' of people who want to have support for their system of beliefs. Its not really about truth...its about a certain portion of the population who need to impose an agenda on everyone. I'm not saying that there are no honest people at ICR. But like it or not, the bias of their agenda is clear. They cannot afford to be wrong about the science napajohn. Take it from ICR itself ...one of the tenets of Biblical creationism: (www.icr.org)napajohn said:call them and see if they can answer your questions or see if they can have a faculty or grad student explain why they believe such trash...You guys should succeed since Science, truth and all the Evidence is on your side.

They refuse written debates. They will only do live debates, where research is impossible, and demagoguery can be used to mask scientific incompetance. They will not come to this site.napajohn said:just wish you guys could spend your evidence and wealth of "scientific knowledge" and debate some of these guys on ICR or Discovery institute..wouldn't it be great if 1 of you could turn them on to this cite or get a dialogue with the faculty...
You just don't get it, do you?

We already know why they believe nonsense, they tell us on their website. Hooray, success!napajohn said:actually, here is the number to icr:

does possibility mean prababibility?..By definition you can't believe in God because that would not make you an atheist.when it comes to deity no one has rulled out all possibilities except for some christians and strong atheists. You will find that most atheists here are agnostic atheists, it means that they dont believe in god but they do still accept the possibility that there could be a god.
no slinging ..just stating the limitations of not allowing God in the equation..by the way you described the brunt of the human population there...creationists Christians do not have the monopoly on this attitudeOn the other hand, there are some christians (often creationists) that believe they are correct and that there is a single god and he is the god of christianity.
So careful how you sling the "limiting possibilities" claim.
wrong claims here: You cannot believe in science and what evolution claims if the polystyrate fossils (or other evidence ) show that the geologic column is incorrect...Belief in God has no real basis here.Creationist talking to a geologist,
Creationist - You can not believe in both science and god, and since polystrat fossils show that the geological column is incorrect, you must pick god over faulty science.
Geologist -did you miss geology 101 or something, if my choices are to believe in god and false information, or no god and unfalsified claims. I pick no god and valid science.
see how it works?
Napa read this again! How many times have have you been told that Evolution does not equal atheism. Take out the earplugs and open your eyes. Why would atheist have to defend evolution???!! Why do you suppose Lucapsa, Mike Flynn and Vance defend evolution?????????????????NapaJohn said:No but some of you treat it like a replacement for God..and yes I believe most scientist in the Academy of sciences claim to be atheists hence the real need to defend evolution at whatever cost
Turns my stomach that there is actually companies that front as "a schools" to prop of this kind of sludge. No self respecting scientist would utter this nonsense. These are the "smart ones" from Wednesday night creationists Bible study that gets "support" from the congregation, to be able to attend this pseudo college, so they can come back and mind meld with anyone in the congregation, that shows any sign of thinking on their own. The congregation is told to "believe then 'cause they ain't no dummy, they went to school for this stuff."
