In Genesis when God says He created the "heavens and the earth" you think He was talking about "earths heaven"?
Spoken like a true scientifically illiterate creationist.
Evolution theory is a scientific theory that is supported by many independent lines of evidence and contradicted by nonen.
Ow, and also: when you can point us to this god of yours creating anything, or when you can reproduce such creation events---please be sure and let us know
There has to be something else, because normal breath doesn't work like that. You need to start asking those questions.
Weird, why do creationists always feel badmouthing someone else's opinion validates their own?
Wake me up when you've got some positive evidence for miraculous creation events.
Note: Not looking for Bible quotes. I'm well aware what it says in Genesis.
What I want is an explanation beyond what is written in Genesis (or any other religious text) that specifically explains how it is possible to create life forms from scratch. Explain how a creator, supernatural or otherwise, would have created fully-formed life forms on Earth.
Describe the mechanisms, energies, forces, processes, etcs, that are involved in bringing fully-formed organisms into existence.
You just said it and don't even see it--normal breath doesn't work like that!! His is not normal! He is the creator of all--His breath is life itself!
The question is clearly not an innocent one; you're asking for a scientific explanation for something that has no scientific explanation. If no one provides an answer that satisfies your sensibilities, then you (supposedly) win.
The premise - that the poster has determined for himself what is or isn't perfect - is fatally flawed for what I hope are obvious reasons.
But to constantly pepper Christians with certain types of questions, then immediately declare the answers invalid because those answers don't line up with your secular sensibilities, is grossly unfair, and is also a serious waste of time.
Do you have me on IGNORE?There haven't been any explanations yet to even declare valid or invalid. It seems like a stretch to even get creationists to consider the question.
Do you have me on IGNORE?
Then explain how it works.
Ask God--Only He knows
you explain how your version works
You said it better than I did:This thread is for creationists to explain how life forms were created fully formed.
All we have are guesses. I personally tend towards seeing "everything was made through him" as God creating with part of himself. And I know someone can take that and go all new age with it. But I dont mean by that that matter is God. I mean God used part of himself to form matter, and life.Note: Not looking for Bible quotes. I'm well aware what it says in Genesis.

Why isn't this something creationists have tried to figure out? I mean, you guys are the ones who keep claiming life forms were created fully formed. Surely there must be some research into how that was done?
Why all the deflection?
That's not what this thread is for. This thread is for creationists to explain how life forms were created fully formed.
Dodging the question isn't going to work here.
That "explanation" you already have is nothing more than a possibility. It is a matter of whether you choose to believe in that possibility or this possibility:I'm not looking to "win". Rather, creationists are trying to argue for replacing an explanation we already have (biological evolution) with the idea that life forms were created independently. Therefore, we need an explanation for how that can happen. Otherwise biological evolution will never be replaced. You can't replace a scientific theory with nothing.
I'm talking about the creation of life on Earth (as fully-formed organisms). If you don't have an explanation for how that happened, we can just move on.
Actually not. The conversations in this forum rarely turn on whether God is the author of our being. Theists believe it, atheists do not, but the real question is how it happened.We do have an explanation and that is God and you know that. This forum is a Christian forum where the conversation are about God ... and you know that.
