Hogwash! According to you then Mathematics attracts people who hang negative values to it because it lacks moral valuesNo one is saying it does. But when you have a non moral framework you have social darwinists that are attracted and thus hang their negative values on it. You can't do that with Christianity.
Why are you starting to feel convicted?You know what they say about bearing false witness don't you!
So? I'd say it is quite the opposite.whenever there is a non moral framework, it's relatively easy to hang your morals on it. Whether good or bad, in this case extremely bad (social darwinism). You can't do that with Christianity.

Only in America
But if you have a system that does not provide any moral guideline... you are definitly and provably wrong when you use it to provide moral guidelines.
In one sense evolution has not moral guidelines because it claims to be science but in another sense, it simply lacks morals. Meaning it is devoid. This makes it easy for someone to hang their own twist of negativity on it because you can't prove them wrong without a moral framework. So your wrong there, you need morals to prove them wrong. Because it's not wrong to say allow abortion if it's survival of the fittest.
Evolution is a PROCESS! It is a process that belongs to science and not the Bible!In one sense evolution has not moral guidelines because it claims to be science but in another sense, it simply lacks morals. Meaning it is devoid. This makes it easy for someone to hang their own twist of negativity on it because you can't prove them wrong without a moral framework.

I fear not leprechauns, demons, nor fairies, therefore I cannot feel convicted!
By spirit do you mean the kind that is found in bottles in pharmacies, bars etcif you have no conviction you don't have the holy spirit because the holy spirit brings conviction
John 16:8 (NEB) "When he [the Holy Spirit] comes, he will convict the world, and show where right and wrong and judgment lie. He will convict them of wrong..."

Each second, more than four million metric tons of matter are converted into energy within the Sun's core, producing neutrinos and solar radiation. At this rate, the Sun has so far converted around 100 Earth-masses of matter into energy. The Sun will spend a total of approximately 10 billion years as a main sequence star.
I think God accelerated (fast forwarded) the 13 billions years to 6 days.
That's something of a subjective interpretation of both science and the Bible, isn't it? Is there anything in science that suggests there was any acceleration of time? Are you referring to relativistic time dilation? Even then, what exactly do you mean by God "accelerated the 13 billion years to 6 days"?I think God accelerated (fast forwarded) the 13 billions years to 6 days.
The dinosaurs did die out, but it's not as we perceive it. They perished in an instance yet to them their life was years.
To God, it was like an instance. Psalm 90:3-4 You turn man back into dust
And say, “Return, O children of men.”
4 For a thousand years in Your sight
Are like yesterday when it passes by,
That's a pretty loose interpretation. As the article you cite mentioned:Why do I say this? There's indication that the sun will eventually become a red giant (billions of years from now) and it just so happens that when Scripture is interpreted correctly (in context), this fate may be disclosed in the Scriptures. If it is indeed true, it's marvelously striking.
If God is going to intervene and end the Earth in seconds, then why look to science? Surely science will reveal no portent about God's future action - the Sun's natural life will end the Earth over millions of years, not seconds.Therefore what has taken ages to create, God will erase in seconds. And vice versa: what has taken ages to destroy, takes seconds to create.
That's another loose interpretation of both science and the Bible. According to science, the universe has only ever got more chaotic. Local decreases in entropy are offset by a universal increase.Order from chaos, order in chaos. That's what this says and that's what the Bible says.
What you think has little relevance especially when you have absolutely no scientific basis to base you ideas on.I think God accelerated (fast forwarded) the 13 billions years to 6 days.
Yeah, that would be wrong Grady. Dead wrong. You cannot say that with a basis in evolution.
And your claims on negativity... Nah. Not right either. Freodin covered that one.
Why do you have a problem with evolution Grady? Really? It's as tried and true as any scientific theory. Can truth be harmful to God or His kingdom? Only if twisted, or given the appearance of being in conflict with it. And creationists are working hard to make sure such a perception is maintained and strengthened. Nothing good can come of that.
Thankfully most christians are not creationists.
And by the way... Evolution is science Grady. Tried, tested and even applied.
evolution is natural selection from the goo to you by way of the zoo
It doesn't work because there is no evidence of macro evolution.
Except for all those darn fossils of intermediary forms, like bird-like reptiles (or is it reptile-like birds?), like primordial cetaceans, like Tiktaalik, like Lucy...evolution is natural selection from the goo to you by way of the zoo

You wish. Evos are so desperate for intermediate fossils that they pretend they exist. Even though they can not produce any.Except for all those darn fossils of intermediary forms, like bird-like reptiles (or is it reptile-like birds?), like primordial cetaceans, like Tiktaalik, like Lucy...
