So, when Christians in the Middle East are being killed or driven from their homes by the Islamic State, and praying to God for help, he ignores them. When your wife prays to God to make your Oldsmobile start, he grants her prayer. Is that what you are saying?
The only expansion known to produce redshift is Doppler expansion.As I have already pointed out (post 955 and post 1122), the authors of this paper accept the expansion of the universe; what they are doing is pointing out the errors in the popular treatment of the expansion, and insisting on the necessity of a general relativistic treatment of it.
The only evidence there is to explain is redshift.If you can provide either a proper refutation of the hypothesis of dark energy or an alternative scientific hypothesis that can explain the evidence that has led scientists to accept the existence of dark energy, then I shall accept what you say.
I guarantee you that when I look at the natural world I am seeing more than you are.
I don't have a religion, and you don't have an invisible, supernatural friend.
The word 'theory' is a very good case in point which has a very different scientific meaning to everyday language and dictionary definitions.

A person who has not been trained as a scientist should not be held to a standard he is not used to. What I said was perfectly intelligible. I have a Master’s and almost two Ph.D. degrees, but they are not in science. I am also the author of two books, but they are not in science either. I resent being forced to a mold I do not respect, especially when dealing with evolution.

Is this how John 3:16 reads? Jesus did not die in order to save cars from the wrecking ball!God loves Oldsmobiles.
If a visitor enters my church, I will not shame him for not wearing church clothes. BTW, the difference between the common and the scientific meaning of theory I have known since my academy days. You don’t need to teach me what I already know. I am not planning to abide by your requirements! I have a strong dislike for the term “theory” when used in connection with evolution.If you're discussing science then it is expected that you use the jargon correctly.

It has in many cases, but not on most. This is why Jesus stated that most people prefer the wide road, the one that leads to eternal loss.Do you actually think a statement like this works on those who are non believers?
There is some truth in what you said; nevertheless, there is the element of deception.To some, it isn't about what one loses when life is over, it is about how honest they were with themselves while they lived.
Correct! But do not forget that those signs reading “WRONG WAY” were manufactured for a purpose: to save lives.Manufactured fear may work for some, but not all.
Further discoveries? Yes. The discovery of the origin of life? I don’t think so! The same applies to the discovery of the origin of the DNA.So, if you are banking on no further discoveries, good luck.
Sorry, the term Yikataa is not in my dictionary!Will you respond with a yawn when Yikataa returns to gather his flock?
We will all lose the one and only thing we have, life, because there is nothing else.
What evidence?
Empty space-expansion is assumed, and dark-energy is assumed because empty space-expansion is assumed. The only evidence you have is redshift, which can be explained without the need for empty space-expansion or dark-energy.

The current understanding will stand because it's an ideology, not science.
Evolutionists have accumulated a lot of nonsense and call this a SCIENTIFIC THEORY. I am not impressed. Tell me where life came from! If you can’t, then please be a little bit more humble and do not shame visitors for refusing to use your specialized language.If you don't want to be taken seriously that's not my problem.
