And why are you evolutionists so very angry? Why can you not just allow people to differ from you?
Just don't accuse us of [wrongfully] espousing "god of the gaps", when you guys are doing the same thing.As for the drawings of Microraptor, the dimensions, the feathers, the shape, everything apart from colouration is exactly as the fossils suggest.
Ladies and Gentlemen I give you a Martyr.Well, I wanted to give you all a scapegoat, someone you can feel good about calling an idiot. If no one disagreed with you, you'd be an awefully bored lot.
This is the only one I could find. And, while it may have seemed to Ursie that she was being called a moron, the truth is that it was her behavior in posting PRATTs in this thread that was being called moronic.Quotes?
Also, seeing Ursie come in here asking why everyone assumes that Creationists are morons and then proceeding to act like a moron was pretty funny.

And don't think for one hertz of time that I'm not noticing the fact that my question about that lizard he was carrying wasn't answered.
Even Haeckel would not have done that --- or would he?
LOL --- you guys certainly are a prime example of why we should have the Bible taught in school.If creationists didn't feel the need to push their religion on the schools most of us wouldn't care.

You don't even understand the basics.
I used to say that you guys couldn't understand anything beyond Genesis 1, but you've shown me that you can't even understand Genesis 1.
Now, I just say you guys can't understand anything beyond, "God did it" --- but I'm beginning to wonder about that now, as well.

OK, let's use another picture. This one's more accurate.]And don't think for one hertz of time that I'm not noticing the fact that my question about that lizard he was carrying wasn't answered.

Ummm, it's a drawing? It's a representation of what the animal looked like while it was alive based on its fossilized remains. It's not an elaborately deceitful "fossil" intended to suggest that predator and prey were stuck in rock mid-flight.And don't think for one hertz of time that I'm not noticing the fact that my question about that lizard he was carrying wasn't answered.
Hey, give the girl some time.This is the only one I could find. And, while it may have seemed to Ursie that she was being called a moron, the truth is that it was her behavior in posting PRATTs in this thread that was being called moronic.
I don't know --- 354.Based on the photograph of Microraptor gui's fossil, is it a bird or a dinosaur?
Haha.
Oh n0es, Av, what's this?
Is that... is that a... belly button? On Adam?
This is clearly a Haeckel painting.
Lulz.
Usage of language, AV, usage of language. Something I know you have difficulties with, but also something that is really really usefull when talking with other people instead of at other people.I don't know --- 354.
And as I understand it, you guys think birds are dinosaurs.
(But only when you're claiming dinosaurs are not mentioned in the Bible.)
The conclusion I come to, after engaging in this conversation is one I've come to before. It is impossible to have an honest debate between parties who've already made up their minds.
We are clearly on different pages, that is going to have to be okay. Do you all ever wonder what is the point of these discussion that we humans have? I know that I do. I think we're all looking for someone who agrees with us, but usually we can't find such a person.
Well, that's a philosophy discussion. Thanks for the discussion. It has certainly been interesting. Blessings to all of you!

That is known as the missing link fallacy. I show you a fossil, species B, that is temporally and morphologically intermediate between species A and species C and you require two more fossils between A and B, and B and C. What you are demanding is that we show you every single generation tens of thousands or even millions of them. But fossilization is very rare.
Nevertheless, we have very complete fossil records of some transitions., the philosophy of science or how science operates?
Ladies and Gentlemen I give you a Martyr.
It doesn't matter that she's not been attacked, all that matters is that she wants to be.
Quite!
God is outside of time. Quite. So why would He even think twice about letting the universe unfold over billions of years? Billions of years or six days make no difference to him. Factor in the relative nature of time and the observed nature of the universe and it is obvious that He did not create it six thousand years ago during a six day period. It doesn't matter to Him anyway, right?
Furthermore, if you read the bible literally like you claim we must, how then do you explain the following:
I Samuel 2 starting at verse 8:
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and he hath set the world upon them.
Clearly, by your logic you MUST read this verse as the earth being placed on pillars.
Or what about: Isaiah 40:22:
He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in.
Even if you read this in Hebrew it becomes clear that the circle is indeed a coin like circle, not a ball. So again. The world MUST BE FLAT.
Add to that Job 37:18
can you join him in spreading out the skies, hard as a mirror of cast bronze?
and it is clear that a literal interpretation of the bible leads to belief in a flat world built upon pillars with a hard, forged sky above. We know all the above to be false. So either:
a: the bible is wrong
b: the bible is not meant to be read that way.
I opt for b.
Especially given my experiences which dictate that God must exist. Yet also clearly illustrate that a literal interpretation of the bible is both harmful and inconsistent with reality.
