evolution and scientists motives

[AV1611VET]

Everyone has a gift and everyone has a choice if they want to use their gift / talent to honor God. The concept of a freewill means having a choice not to honor God.

Which is exactly what scientists do today ... even go so far as to blaspheme God with their ungodly philosophy; (e.g., we are mutant copy-errors, made in the image and likeness of God).

It is not the science you are accusing of being blasphemous, it is the real world you are living in: God's creation according to you.

Opinionated accusation. How about something specific, like cite something in the "credible" scientific literature that blasphemes God. I have yet to see anything.

 

[AV1611VET]

God's creation according to you.

God's fallen creation.

I just said science says we are mutant, copy-errors; didn't I?

 

[Mr Strawberry]

God's fallen creation.

As long as you are aware it is not science that is offending you.

That fallen creation of yours would of course include the Bible. Given how you regard the rest of the physical world as tainted and blasphemous, you don't really have a way of trusting any book written by humans.

 

[RickG]

I just said science says we are mutant, copy-errors; didn't I?

Yeah, that's why everyone doesn't look exactly the same. What is blasphemes about that? As for copy-errors, I think genetic variation would be a more correct term, though I admit biology is not one of my stronger areas.

 

[Subduction Zone]

I just said science says we are mutant, copy-errors; didn't I?

Yes, that is only one of the many ways that new mutations and therefore new "information" is introduced into the genome.

For some reason, I think that AV views mutations as something bad, when in fact it is nothing more that a word to describe change.

Too many 1950's monster movies. You know, Godzilla, Mothra, Giant Ants. From another thread he does not understand the square/cube law so all of these may seem "possible" to him.

If God can, in the midst of a fallen and wicked world, have an Ark built that can survive a global flood, then I'm sure He will have no trouble a'tall with His word.

Let me backtrack:

Adam & Eve were mutant, copy errors; made in the image and likeness of God.

 

[Mr Strawberry]

You have no way of knowing that. Your belief that the real world is tainted prevents you from trusting any part of it. You have been sucked into a black hole of your own devising.

 

[Subduction Zone]

If God can, in the midst of a fallen and wicked world, have an Ark built that can survive a global flood, then I'm sure He will have no trouble a'tall with His word.

But of course we know that he didn't.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Let me backtrack:

Adam & Eve were mutant, copy errors; made in the image and likeness of God.

Now of course that makes no sense from either an evolutionist or a creationist point of view.

From a creationist point of view God could have used anything to base Adam and Eve on. From an evolutionist point of view we know there was no Adam and Eve.

 

[Mr. Pedantic]

Let me backtrack:

Adam & Eve were mutant, copy errors; made in the image and likeness of God.

You have written something with is absolutely, completely, 100% wrong. This is not an easy thing to do. Congratulations.

 

[AV1611VET]

You have no way of knowing that.

The Bible said it, that settles it.

If you think the Ark sank at one point, or never got off the ground, that's your prerogative; just as it's my prerogative to think otherwise.

Your belief that the real world is tainted prevents you from trusting any part of it.

As our coins attest: IN GOD WE TRUST.

You have been sucked into a black hole of your own devising.

I see.

 

[AV1611VET]

But of course we know that he didn't.

Lakini bila shaka, anasema wewe.

 

[AV1611VET]

From a creationist point of view God could have used anything to base Adam and Eve on.

Indeed.

He used the dust of the earth for Adam, and one of Adam's ribs for Eve.

 

[AV1611VET]

Adam & Eve were mutant, copy errors; made in the image and likeness of God.

You have written something with is absolutely, completely, 100% wrong.

You got that right!

This is not an easy thing to do. Congratulations.

... Thank you!
