Which is the religion that forces people to accept that they are fallen broken sinners who deserve to be eternally tortured who cannot possibly be decent worthy people without help from said religion?Religion that discriminates, belittles, dehumanize
Does it ever occur to you that it could possibly the case that you don’t have a better understanding of biology than all the universities and scientific organisations of the world?
Not sure that your opinion is a valid opinion. The current theory is String theory, which implies multiple universes, are you sure that the primate can understand everything?We can see that Humankind has the necessary intelligence to understand space time sufficient that our theories about it can make accurate predictions. At present we appear to have a very good understanding of space time, and there is no obvious limit being approached concerning how deep our understanding can go.
The size and rate of volcanism appears to have been larger in the past. The largest eruptions we know of all occurred millions of years ago. Is geology sufficient in itself to decipher the rate and scale of volcanism in the distant past?You'd have to define what you mean by 'exactly in the same manner'. Some things are the same, some things are different. We can look at volcanoes today and then look at the remains of ancient volcanoes, and this is good evidence that vulcanism works by the same process now that it did in the distant past. However, bombardment of the earth by meteors happens far less frequently now than in the past. So that is changed. Perhaps you need to define exactly which events you mean.
The theory of relativity can make accurate predictions, yet ToE breaks down as you approach the singularity. The ToE also fails at the sub atomic level. It is not whether a theory can accurately predict events, the theory must cover all the bases. Hence, we have a new theory, String theory, a possible theory of everything.We have good theories of physics, good because they have predicational accuracy and have survived many attempts to disprove them, that say that the speed of light is a constant in an unchanging medium. Note that as a bland statement 'the speed of light is a constant' is not true, as light moves at different speeds in different mediums. E.g. it is much slower in glass than it would be in a vacuum. It appears that there may be other things that can affect the speed of light.
We definitely have evidence for the existence of God, even observations, here is what He looks like.This is a reasonable assumption given that there is no evidence of such Gods or such a spiritual realm, and that we understand the tendency of human beings to create religion, and that these religions are not fixed (as they would be if due to divine revelation), but differ in different cultures and change over time as they would do if they were myths. If you feel that there are Gods and/or a spiritual realm, then perhaps you could provide objective verifiable evidence that supports this.
It cannot be known whether mathematical axioms are true, that is why they are called axioms.As we invented mathematics and as part of that defined what is true and what is not, the axioms of mathematics are true. However, the mathematics that we have developed has proved stupendously effective in understanding and predicting the world. Can you suggest any way in which our mathematics could be changed to better match reality? If not, what is the point of raising this?
Science is an attempt to understand space time by employing observation, measurement, testing, e.t.c. Science is assuming that all space time is an observable reality, the last fifty years in science is teaching us that it may not be comprehensible.I can see that. Taking a wild guess, I suspect that you wish to maintain having issues with every discipline of science so that you can maintain your beliefs, even though if you wanted to your issues could easily be solved by actually understanding science.
Yes.
The message is a foolish message.
1 Corinthians 1:18
For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Yup; that's what the axioms of a formal logical or mathematical system are by definition - statements or propositions that are true in that system.
Some people don't seem to realize that Nazis and Communists were complete opposites.
Look at the bolded part. If you claim that those two people are different species, then you're an idiot.
Yes, only an idiot would claim such things, like the ring species. But here they are none the less.
I don't know whether people are tortured for eternity, I doubt whether that Biblical interpretation is true. In some places in the scripture people are destroyed, they no longer exist.Which is the religion that forces people to accept that they are fallen broken sinners who deserve to be eternally tortured who cannot possibly be decent worthy people without help from said religion?
No, it's a lie. You have provided ZERO evidence throughout this thread, only your own insipid claims, your outrageous lies about the theory of evolution and your stunningly poor grasp of both history and science.
Like the claim that evolution is similar to Satan worship? A classic case of someone who knows absolutely nothing about evolution trying to stroke his own ego.
They both are atheistic in their beliefs, they both rob graves and have this infatuation with skull & bones, they both discriminate against the darker skinned humans, they both justify lawlessness and support the "Do As Thou Wilt" ideology where you take no responsibility for your actions (my environment caused, or commanded me to do it),
Mostly, that paragraph is correct.
This is better than what you were saying before. Which was asking to see one parent give birth to a different species.
So, yes, 4.2 billion years is long enough. The first amoeba was approximately 2.1 Billion years ago, so it appears that only half that time was required.
You are agreeing with me. I'm not sure why you are doing it in such a manner as you are. However, I'm happy that you are agreeing with me. However, let's see what happens next.
I think that you bringing out and out racism into this discussion is disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself. Hence, I bow out of this discussion now as I have no wish to interact with people such as you.
The entire concept of Evolution was derived from racism, so you don't like anyone point that FACT out to you?
I don't know whether people are tortured for eternity, I doubt whether that Biblical interpretation is true. In some places in the scripture people are destroyed, they no longer exist.
I do know that heaven is a perfect place, imperfect people cannot gain entry to heaven.
Decent people do exist, I have met some very decent folk, even at times I am a very decent person myself. Though, there are times when my behavior is unsatisfactory and I am haunted by some things I have done in the past.
What I find the most difficult about religion, is loving others as I love myself. That is impossible for me, I too easily see the faults in others, I just constantly correct stupidity. I don't know whether the universe is infinite, but mankind's stupidity is infinite.
The Nazis had their own straw-man version of the theory (not the real thing) and the Soviet Union outlawed the works of Darwin and his successors altogether.Really?
Both are a totalitarian One World Order regime, both base, and justify their ideology on Evolution, both caused millions and millions of deaths through genocide, .. so how are they complete opposites? They complement each other.
But you didn’t. How many times do you need to be told that?I evolved from a gorilla
All of that is wrong. For a start ToE has nothing to do with the sub atomic level.The theory of relativity can make accurate predictions, yet ToE breaks down as you approach the singularity. The ToE also fails at the sub atomic level. It is not whether a theory can accurately predict events, the theory must cover all the bases. Hence, we have a new theory, String theory, a possible theory of everything.
Did you know Soviet Russia carried out a political program denying ToE?Both are a totalitarian One World Order regime, both base, and justify their ideology on Evolutio
That's right. the population evolves, but each individual pretty much stays the same its whole life--not quite the same as its parents and not quite the same as its offspring...So a population is not made of individuals? The population evolves, but not the individual?
