The marketing people didn't get it, they sold it. Research, manufacturing and marketing; three different concepts.

I'd like to know though, where they got the idea that it was prenatal?

Were the marketers able to ascertain that? if so, perhaps they were scientists as well?

Evidence for only naturalistic mechanisms creating elephants and pine trees from a common ancestor of long long ago please.

:thumbsup:

Well, I can tell you that for the whole last year maybe all I have seen
is pictures of similarities and claims of similarities. No one has ever
been able to give the direct evidence. It boils down to just guesses
and what if's. Or "we don't know everything yet".

The Tales of Paul Bunyan state quite literally that Babe the ox is blue.

Aesop has animals in his fables that literally talk.

The Harry Potter books describe literal brooms that are ridden during quidditch matches.

Great, you have nice list of known fiction. Has anyone ever claimed that the Tales of Paul Bunyan or Aesop's Fables or Harry Potter are true events?

Has any of these story books predicted the future and had it come true. Been around for thousands of years. Do any of these story books claim to be inspired by a god?

My post was in direct response to Neogaia777 who has an icon of "non denominational. I assume from this that they are not an atheist. Atheists generally may assume that the Bible is a book of fables however, most people who are Christian believe it is the true word of God.

How do you blend the concepts of developmental biology and the Bible?

Jeremiah 1:
4Now the word of the LORD came to me saying, 5"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations."

Developmental Biology: Developmental biology is the study of the process by which organs grow and develop, and is closely related to Ontogeny. Modern developmental biology studies the genetic control of cell growth, differentiation and morphogenesis, which is the process that gives rise to tissues, organs and anatomy, but also regeneration and aging.
Developmental biology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And somehow this proves God didn't design all of this?

Evolution is a (form of) creation, an act of creating


I really don't know if Neogaia777 has been back online. However, I would just like to add that Christians that believe that God used evolution as His method of creation are falling for the same lie that Eve did.

Satan told her the "God did not say you would surely die". Satan twisted the scripture and told Eve that God didn't mean what He said. Theistic evolutionists are falling for the same lie when they read Genesis and say "God didn't mean that it was Six literal days". I can almost hear Satan saying it himself....

It's quite funny actually. Evolutionists believe man evolved from ape at the same time denying the ape eventually evolved from a rock.

If A = B, and B = C, then logic must prove A = C. Man came from a rock, evolutionists have to admit that...no way around. Now that is not science, that is religion. It is the black swan in the evolution theory.

You tell us. I am curious what your view is.

Here we have an example of the Bible saying that God does X. We also have very solid science demonstrating that natural processes do X.

If X=evolution, you claim that the science has to be wrong since it would contradict the Bible.

What if X=fetal development? Does the same rule apply?

As true as the mythology in Genesis.

Has any of these story books predicted the future and had it come true.

They have predicted as much about the future as the Bible if you throw out all of the science that contradicts the mythologies, just as you do for the Bible.

Mmmm let me see if I have it right. Most of the world's Christians accept evolution so they are all under the spell of Satan but somehow you have kept pure and untainted?

Since being antagonistic toward science is one of the main reasons cited for young people leaving the church, could it not be that you are the one being used as a tool by Satan?

Just a thought.

Would you even care or recognize the various statistics for that point being valid, stubborn as you are? Honestly, how much evidence do you need to change your mind once you get entrenched in a particular perspective?

You would be correct, one of the main reasons young people leave the church and religion is because of those being antagonistic against science.

Your rant isn't evidence. Try again.
