[Nostromo]

I don't know.

 

[AV1611VET]

I don't know.

Do you believe in evolution? do you consider yourself an evolutionist?

 

[Nostromo]

Do you believe in evolution? do you consider yourself an evolutionist?

What sort of evolution are we talking about?

Where is the "God created it as a night light" choice? I want to vote for that one.

Why worry about it? let's just dismiss it and say Godidit and all go down the pub.

 

[No Time]

I don't know.

Again, what has knowing where or caring where the moon came from got to do with evolution?

 

[Phred]

The moon is there.

How did the moon get there?

We evolved.

How exactly did we evolve?

See how that works?

 

[Phred]

No. An -ist equates belief. Nobody who isn't ignorant "believes" in evolution. We accept evolution.

What sort of evolution are we talking about?

Biological Evolution:

The one that says the Plant Kingdom appeared before the Animal Kingdom.

Cosmic Evolution:

The one that claims...

Gen 1:1
Genesis 1: The Theistic Evolutionary Creation

Gen 1:2
Genesis 1:2


Gen 1:3
Genesis 1:3

Gen 1:4
The uncanny Bible accuracy regarding light...

Gen 1:5
Gen 1:5

Gen 1:6-7
Genesis 1:6-7... with a number of other "sevens"...

Gen 1:8 explains the sub-eras
Gen 1:8

Gen 1:9-10
Genesis 1:9-10... the uncanny Geological and Geographical accuracy


Gen 1:11-13
Genesis 1:11-13


Gen 1:14
Gen 1:14, the Solar Clock and the rise of Circadian Rhytym

I think that's covered by other. I love the word choice though.

AV, I really hope you get around to answering how evolution has anything to do with the source of the moon.

Personally, I think the moon is the result of a cosmic oyster. A very large one.

 

[Amber the Duskbringer]

The moon is actually just picture on a giant sky back drop put there by reptilians. /s

OP's like this just show the desperation in AV1611VET to make it appear as if he has a belief in something other than ignorance.

 

[Belk]

I would say that AV has jumped the shark, but he did that long ago. If you don't pick one of the theories on moon formation you are not a true "evolutionist"!

Once again, did you read the question?

It is evolution -- planetary evolution; that's why I put this poll in C&E and not P&LS.

When Internet evolutionists start yakking about evolution, they usually only yak about two kinds of evolution (out of six): [5.] macroevolution and [6.] microevolution.

But in so-doing, they skip over billions of years of:

1. Cosmic Evolution -- the origin of time, space and matter
2. Chemical Evolution -- the origin of higher elements from hydrogen.
3. Stellar & Planetary Evolution -- the origin of stars and planets.
4. Organic Evolution -- the origin of life from non-living material.

A real evolutionist would understand this -- in my opinion; but an Internet evolutionist takes 1-5 above on faith, and 6 on observation.

Biological Evolution:

I appreciate your eagerness to answer, but I'd rather AV answered it himself.

edit: OK, nevermind, this is going where I thought it was

 

[AV1611VET]

It's not if you don't pick one -- it's if you haven't picked one.

I can claim I'm an International Chess Master, but if asked what my favorite opening is, and I claim I don't have one, my credentials are questionable.

 

[Nostromo]

Do you really wonder why I accused you of being a troll?

 

[AV1611VET]

I like Plindboe's answer -- that to me is refreshing.

(As well as the others', of course.)

Because human evolution is separate and distinct from how the universe itself and all its contents got here.

And you think there is no merit to my idea of the cosmic oyster? That makes me sad
