abiogenesis, the hypothesis that life arose from inorganic matter, and the big bang theory, a theory on the early development of the universe, are not the same theory nor does anyone claim that they are. they are two separate proposals in two separate fields about two completely separate things.

you keep insisting they are the same thing even though time and time again you have been show how ridiculous your claims are.
Of course they are not the same theory...they are from the same spirit. They are both anti God anti creation lying slop.

It wasn't a big band dad and you spelled it wrong
It was Janis Joplin. Kosmic Blues
I doubt you could get a big band to fit in a little speck even. The fables of so called science are gross darkness and evil.

You ooze something, but it ain't truth. I'm thinking pus.

^_^
There are certain criteria to be able to distinguish truth from lies. Without the cheatsheet from God, man is off on a wild tangent, led by the nose by sinister forces and spirits that he is not even aware of. Where man is led is apparent in the so called science conclusions like an imaginary first life form and the universe in a speck fables.

Technically it's only 95 percent "gross darkness" dad, and it's only 'evil' because the data doesn't actually jive with their claims. ;)

Everyone will be held accountable for their actions whether in this life or the next.

So God got rid of that whole 'Jesus dying for your sins' thing and we are all now doomed to hell?

Your solution to the sin problem would require that God create humans without free will. In a world without free will there can be no love, no purpose and no hope.


So there will be no free will in heaven huh?

Here's a great talk given by Sam Harris. In it explains the potential implications for religions if death is the end. "If we're right, and nothing happens after death, every religion ever devised is false."

It's bit long, but worth it. Enjoy! :)

I... don't get it. Isn't that awfully close to self-evident?

Given the hundreds of thousands of religions that have ever existed, I'm going to go out on a limb and say, no.

But these religions all say, "death is not the end because of x." I think that they acknowledge that if death is the end, their religion is invalidated; they just don't believe that to be the case. By the same token, if there is no God, my religion is invalidated, as are many others, but I don't believe that to be the case.

Cosmic evolution is related to the big bang, be honest. I ooze truth. The first lifeform is what all things evolved FROM according to evilution. Ask a lurker.

Hows them apples?

Evolution is related to the big bang, in a sense, but luckily they don't rely on each other to make them, individually, valid.

They are oranges, that have been painted by a 2 year-old to look like apples.

Of course not, NOTHING could make either valid. All past changed due to evolving in the fossil record can be explained by rapid evolving in the former state from the created kinds. Period. Science has nothing it can say about it. As for the big bang nonsense, that is deep delusion, with no basis in reality. Demonism would be a good word for it.

You sound like those annoying "hard-core" atheists who say nothing could ever make a god valid.

How annoying and ironic...

You're just now figuring out Dad and AV are hard core theists and creationists?

No, I've known that.

Just wondering if their flawed arguments and style had changed. It has not.
