Does the fact of Evolution .... (moved)

[dad]

What are you talking about? Surely not the Bible since the many errors in that book were apparent long before the theory of evolution came along. By the way, I did not vote on the fact that there are errors in the Bible. Scientists and others showed that. You can only hide behind your ignorance as a form of defense. It will not convince too many people. In fact one of the reasons that Christianity is starting to die out in so many areas is because of literalists that will not deal with reality.

Not interested in your opinion of a proven absolute fact. That is settled. Finished. Done. You don't get a vote on that any more than whether there is an sun.

You are in no position to tell us what science is either. Your pretense is over. You post no science and when you attempt to is is a joke.

 

[dad]

I don't mean to gang up on you did. But SubductionZone made a very good point. You automatically assume that God dictated Scripture, that everything happens just the way Scripture said it did. That is highly questionable hypothesis from the standpoint of modern biblical studies. Where, then is your evidence? You are simply stating your interpretation of Scripture here. Who says you are correct? I don't accept anything at face value. I am not about to accept anything you say when the sole authority is your own say-so. Bet on that. Let's se some evidence.

Jesus confirmed God dictated Scripture. Szone and you are overruled.

But dad. we all know that it is a prove fact that Genesis has been refuted if you have a literal interpretation of it. You can deny reality, but that will only make you lose again. I am not voting, you are not voting. Reality already voted. You lost. We can go over the evidence if you like, but I doubt if you would understand it.

 

[Hoghead1]

Evidence please, Dad. Until I see you make some effort in that direction, I am simply going to reject your hypothesis as invalid, the mere opinion of a lay person who knows nothing about biblical studies and so one I am not about to take seriously.

Wrong, try again. You are not the voice of the universe. For

Far as the bible goes, creation is a fact and any evolving came after life was created.

No, 100% correct, Jesus did confirm Scripture was of God.

Nope, that is only your terribly flawed interpretation of the Bible.

 

[Subduction Zone]

But the Bible has been proven to be wrong in this sort of matter time after time.

And quoting from the Bible only shows that you are removed from reality.

Would you sign the papers to have me committed if that was your job?

Commitment is only necessary when one is a physical threat to either oneself or others. So though out of touch with reality that is not enough to have one committed. You are safe AV, no worries. You should not project what actions you would take onto others.

What!? I don't even get prescribed medicine!?

What kind of psychiatrist are you!?

Armchair?

If you want help you need to go and ask for it. No one is going to force reality upon you, no matter what fantasies of oppression that you have.

So you're good at telling people what's wrong with them, but kinda lax in curing them ... right?

I don't think a person like that would even make a good general practitioner, let alone a psychiatrist.

The person has to want to be cured. Forcing a cure on someone can be worse than the disease. And you will not find a single practitioner that would force someone to be cured of a disease that is doing little physical harm to themselves or to others. Doctors are not thought police, and neither am I. If someone goes to an open forum I will try to help them, but I cannot and do not want to force a cure.

But you won't hesitate to give a prognosis, will you?

Looks like doctors around here are a dime a dozen.

Of course not. I am trying to help you after all. But you made rather silly claims. We don't even force drug abusers into treatment if they don't want it. And that does do physical harm to the body. It is also rather difficult to be a drug abuser without harming others directly, usually one has to do illegal acts to get the money to buy the drugs. That is what gets drug abusers into jail where I live, not the actual taking of drugs. Your problem is minor in comparison.

Until, of course, I try to get a job with "my problem;" then it's different, isn't it?

I'm suddenly not so ... what word did you use ... "safe" ... am I?

Of course. If you applied for a teaching job and could not teach properly you would not be hired. A math teacher that teaches 2 + 2 = 5 will not get hired to teach math. A science teacher that teaches bronze age myths that were refuted over 200 years ago will not get a job either. If you want to wash dishes in the cafeteria there should be no problem with that.

 

[AV1611VET]

Of course.

That says it all.
