• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Creation evidence?

  Not even that. *shrug*. You claim "random chance". No one familiar with abiogenesis research, much less those involved, are dealing with "Random chance".

   It's not random chance that snowflakes form, is it? My original point (in regards to evolution) was that natural selection wasn't "random chance". It was the opposite. It weeded out anything that didn't aid survival and reproduction.

Okay, let's try again:

Does anyone have non-Biblical, scientific, evidence which explicitly supports the young earth creation model? Not "evidence that another model is flawed", but evidence specifically supporting a young earth with special creation of life as we know it.

Anyone?

(People who don't have such evidence, please leave this thread alone; it should either list specific evidence *for* creation, or die a lonely death.)

I know you are going to want to act as though this is not what you wanted but it is of course the best evidance for creation and against evolution.

Go to any hospital any where in the world and you will find a record of people having people. Go back as far as you can and you will find people giving birth to people. No Bible involved. Face it. It has always been that way.

Now if you can produce some case otherwise please enlighten us all. Be blessed

No, it obviously has not always been that way considering evidence of "people" existing is only present in a small fraction of the geologic record relative to the whole.

Morat: Not even that. *shrug*. You claim "random chance". No one familiar with abiogenesis research, much less those involved, are dealing with "Random chance".

DNAunion: What about for the ordering of monomers needed to produce a self-replicating molecule? Is there something directing the choice among monomers at each location in order to guarantee a self-replicating molecule will form, or is it up to chance to hit upon one from the many?

Morat: It's not random chance that snowflakes form, is it?

DNAunion: Snowflakes can’t self-replicate, so creating an analogy between them and the origin of life is problematic.

Also, the arrangement of the parts of a snowflake is a random process: that’s why it is said that no two snowflakes are identical. And related to that point, the order of the parts of a snowflake is immaterial – not so for an RNA replicase or a self-replicating protein.
