So was I missing something?The theory of evolution at some juncture always requires spontaneous generation to occur. The pioneering work of Louis Pasteur paved the way for our canning and bottling industry today. Billions of experiments are performed each day as tuna fish, tomato soup and grape jelly are put into a controlled environment absent living DNA. The result is consistently the same, new life does not form spontaneously from non-living material. Not even from organic, previously alive material. Once the living DNA has been precipitated or disassembled by whatever means, heat, radiation, decay, new life does not form from the remains. There is a specific order to life ordained by the creator of life. All things reproduce according to their kind.
Additional genetic information is never gained in a DNA chain. When mutations occur, it's always a scrambling of information already present; a leg out of place, an additional head or some other abberation of existing DNA code.
Never does a wing form on a snake or a fin on a cat. The information is not present and cannot arise stochastically. It is not only improbable, it is impossible. The result, of course, is that 'all things reproduce according to their kind'. Dogs beget dogs, birds beget birds and so forth.
Many kinds of animals have become extinct, we find their remains all the time. While we discover new varieties of life from time to time, no new kinds of life arise from other kinds, or from non-living material.
Consider this: people consider frogs becoming princes a fairy tale. But, if they tell you mankind came from a rock, it's evolution.
As somebody once said, intransigent belief is not a virtue but a sign of intellectual and moral weakness."How much courage does it take..."
To stand up for one's beliefs? Particularly when they are surrounded by vipers?
A lot.

I'm pretty sure she's just busy publishing her ideas in Nature and will be soon collecting her nobel prize. These errors are so flagrant, it's amazing scientists how scientists just seemed to have missed them.Here's a crazy thought -- maybe instead you don't actually know the first real thing about evolution.
And you need to come across with something other than hate and vitriol. I have read a number of your post, and the only point you ever seem to make is how much you dispise what you term as 'YECs.'
Ah, yes, the patented response of the enlightened ones.
We have decided there is no god, therefore we are smarter than everyone who believes there is. Because anyone who actually studies the theory of evolution will automatically reject any belief in the notion of a god or creator, which is the only path to true enlightenment.
Not quite. Although no one says "believing in creationism brings salvation" directly, they do chain it all together.
1) You have to believe in Christ's resurrection.
2) You have to believe that Christ = God, and
3) Therefore Christ authored the Bible.
4) Number 1 only means anything if Christ never lied.
Christ did refer to the flood, and the time of Eden, so rejecting that is not believing Him on the matter.5) Therefore, everything in the Bible must be fact and true.
6) Thus, if you don't believe in the literal creation account in Genesis, you believe Christ lied, which means you don't believe in the resurrection, which means no salvation.
Let's not be pretentious here, or hypocritical. Do you think anything would give salvation? I doubt it, since you bear the atheist icon. I have never heard anyone say that creationism gives salvation anyhow. What a load.
I accuse who of what, where?? No idea what you are talking about. I may cringe at the utter lack of belief in the bible of some, and realize they are not really bible believers, however.Oh so then you and the other creationist who accuse other christians of not really being christian because they don't believe as you do is what.... a joke?
"She's not surrounded by vipers. Just people who are better educated than she is."

Not bad so far.

Seems to me that the mark of one that believes in Jesus, and the bible, is that they believe in Jesus, and the bible. Many people are saved, that are not quite at that place yet, apparently, and may never be in this life. But, far as I can tell, the main thing is to simply believe Jesus, and accept His gift. The rest will follow eventually.
Therefore when I see Christians that do not believe Him, or the bible, I consider that an indication they have a long way to go in some departments.
Your rant isn't even on point. This is not a debate about the existence of God.Ah, yes, the patented response of the enlightened ones.

How about intransigent non-belief?
