Sounds plausible.I disagree, the brain does receive and send information whether it be physical, mental or spiritual.
Nope.Deanos said:We come from organic matter, an intelligence system and water.
Which means it should keep its nose out of Genesis 1, unless it wants to acknowledge the existence of the Theo-logical, and not just the Logical.The thing is science is based on fact, logic and conclusion,
The "way of life" is Jesus Christ.Deanos said:... the way of life is opening up on the way forward ...
Secular science can agree with religion all it wants.Deanos said:... and science interfacing and agreeing with religion,
Oh, don't worry.Deanos said:It has opened the door and should be open more.
And who's doing the programming?Reading this was like music to my ears, I am already aware the human body is an organic matter with intelligence aka computer. In life there are opposites to everything and this is ours, a computer.
There is a heritable 'recipe' (the genetic code) supporting the structural development of various core functions, but it's a learning system, effectively self-programming.And who's doing the programming?

If you say we are individually, just call me Genghis Khan.

The problem with delving into biology at the molecular level is that there is no point at which an intelligent designer could intervene.If you study evolution, with an open mind, you will likely believe in evolution.
If you study human, animal, and plant anatomy, with an open mind, you will likely believe in creation.
No, i don't. I need to remind you to what post you reacted:You completely miss the point.
You can't talk about a supernatural event without any supernatural references.
The world is not just the physical that you can see, there is equal parts physical and spiritual. When you ignore the spiritual you are ignoring half of the facts. Creation was a miracle, a supernatural event, it wasn't a natural event.
Great. Point me to the people who came to the conclusion of creationism without an apriori religious belief. I'll wait.
If you now start to invoke miracles and supernatural beliefs you clearly did come to creationism due to an a priori religious belief.*waves*
Non-christian evolutionist of 25 years who became a Christian and then a creationist. Trust me we exist.

Both are logic of men and are, at best, painting a skeletal picture of reality. Entertain both; dismiss facets as you learn more. Don't retard you efficiency in knowledge building by depending on man-made logic/systems to be the "truth". The same societies that ridicule free thought are the same societies that, say, claim to master electrodynamics but continues to use combustion for the majority of energy (for whatever political, social or scientific reason - it still highlights a flaw in human thinking).
People are running amok calling a stick a "head-bleeder" because hitting people over the head with a stick tends to make one bleed from the head - but that is neither the function nor evolution of a stick. Things work, but that doesn't make them true, better or ideal - it just means it [seems to] works.

Also, why would such an intelligent designer design such a fancy propeller for the E. Coli bacteria?
intelligence isn't confined to the brain, when we pass over we take the soul with us which includes the intelligence but not the organic matter i.e. brain, body, etc.

Indeed, why is it that every characteristic generally acknowledged to be part of consciousness and the sense of self can be altered or damaged by some kind of physical intervention?If “intelligence isn’t confined to the brain”, why is it that a person’s intelligence can be altered through a brain injury...?
Why is it that physical intervention isn't a necessity for achieving changes in the sense of self?Indeed, why is it that every characteristic generally acknowledged to be part of consciousness and the sense of self can be altered or damaged by some kind of physical intervention?
Does long term motor neurone or Parkinson's diseases, not ultimately alter an individual's perceptions of what is real and what isn't?FrumiousBandersnatch said:Maybe, when you die of, for example, Alzheimers, it's all miraculously restored to peak condition - but peak condition of what age? do you sacrifice some knowledge and experience for a more youthful mindset? Do you get a youthful mind with the knowledge of your old age? What about the traumas - if you lost the memories of them, would it still be 'you'? So many questions...
No, i don't. I need to remind you to what post you reacted:

Yes. The E. Coli tail helps the bacteria kill people. Who would want to design such a thing?Actually that's a pretty simple design.
More like: this designer of brick walls can't design atoms, space, and time.That's like saying that one who designs a brick wall couldn't possibly design bricks.
On the contrary, every single 'thing' in science, has either already been tested or is being tested and changes over time. Atoms space and time are classic examples of 'things' that science has changed its meaning of .. because of new results derived from that testing. These are in fact, concepts, and not what we commonly think of as being 'things' (or physical, unchanging objects). If they were 'physical objects' existing completely independently from our concepts, then why would they change at all?More like: this designer of brick walls can't design atoms, space, and time.
