God Made This

Australian wildlife may not be the best poster children for God:

C'mon Bungle Bear, your ignorance is showing..... they were all friendly vegetarians before the fall.

Oh no, Koala is vegetarian still

I find this thread shockingly, but predictably lacking in substance.

Good morning from Australia,

Look what was over my back fence this morning.

No, Natural Selection did not bring them into being.

God did, The Bible states this in Genesis.

Can you not see His wonderful loving work?

Discuss.

No, God did not bring them into being.

Evolution by means of natural selection did, and the evidence for this is in their genes, which fit perfectly into the nested hierarchy that evolution predicts.

Can you not see the traces of evolution?

Discuss.

My guess is that He spoke the kangaroo into existence.

And they hopped all the way from the middle east to Australia to live in our country, ignoring all the other equally suitable countries that they could have gone to.

And they left behind no trace of those that died on the way. Well, hey, they have those pouches, I guess they used them for kangaroo carcass transport!

Why is it that all the examples in these argument from incredulity type claims are always cute and cuddly? Always "look at this lovely butterfly, look at this adorable quoka", never "look at this mighty plague bacillus, look at this awesome goblin shark". Just once I'd like to see someone make this argument for some organism you don't find in children's colouring books.

You mean like here?

Like ... say ... a severe bone defect from God in the form of a judgmental plague?

Deuteronomy 28:59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

Read Psalm 38 slowly and visualize what King David is going through.

Especially ...

Psalm 38:3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

Psalm 38:6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

Or here?

Yes and no.

God told His people that He would put "wonderful plagues" on them if they disobeyed.

Deuteronomy 28:59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

I submit these plagues were some kind of bone-altering diseases that affected how the person looked; and if dug up today, would be mistaken for Neanderthals & Cro-Magnons.

King David died of such a disease (Psalm 38).

Or here?

The Neanderthals were people who were punished by God with a specific bone-altering "wonderful disease."

Deuteronomy 28:59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

David probably died of such a disease (see Psalm 38).

If you have Neanderthal DNA, it can probably be traced back to someone who was so judged.

In my opinion.

Or here?

What about them?

I can't speak for Malaria or 'every disease in the world,' but I also believe cancer, along with AIDS, is one of God's ...

Deuteronomy 28:59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.No.The same thing we're all judged for ... our sins.Death.

James 1:15b ... and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.I'm not exempt.

I'm going to die of the "ultimate disease" too.

And when the time comes, it will be cancer, AIDS, an accident, whatever ... compliments of a sin-cursed universe.I believe I already addressed that.

I'll die of a disease that was initially meant for those engaging in beastiality and homosexuality.God sent it, then He gave us doctors to observe it.

What did the continents look like (formation) when Kangaroo's first appeared?

(To the christian, before then after the flood)

Does this explain how inorganic matter magically became life?

And DNA just went "poof" and said here is the information required to form life.

I'm still waiting for a replication of this theory in a lab.

Either that, or they were teleported (raptured) there as they stepped off the Ark, since God wanted them there.

Acts 8:39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Acts 8:40 But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

And also hid them for a time like this.

Unless science theory supports the chronology of Genesis, science has it wrong.

What is 'the' chronology of Genesis? It contains no dates, and Christian estimates for the age of the universe range from 6000 years to 15000000000 years.

 

[AV1611VET]

What is 'the' chronology of Genesis?

Long story short: the universe was created by God in 4004 BC.

Those time periods rest on geology and cosmology, they're wrong. Especially if you cant leave earth because its God's prison for the wicked.

Genesis has two chronologies. It can't even agree with itself.

 

[xianghua]

This has already been refuted. 16 years ago...

CB200.1: Bacterial flagella and Irreducibly Complexity

and still: we know that a spining motor is evidence for design. even if its small or made from organic components.

Either that, or it's a frame story.

So, God created a kangaroo in your backyard?

Pity you didn't start recording earlier. A visual record of a divine creation act would have been awesome!

How would that have convinced you?

 

[HitchSlap]

Long story short: the universe was created by God in 4004 BC.

Were you there?

 

[HitchSlap]

Evidence.
