Intelligent Design Is Only Theorized

Because you say so?

Mat 25:29 "For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away.

It's not.

Mar 8:36 “For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?

I'm afraid I'm not seeing how the parable of the talents supports your point... in fact, it seems to do the exact opposite.

All of the benefits that you have mentioned are temporal, and if you focus solely on the temporal (which all Atheists do), then you will find no eternal benefit whatsoever, meaning for you your science will be ultimately useless, and you will not make it to the next world. Jesus told Martha: "There are few things in this life that are paramount, really only one", and that one thing is making it to the next world and beyond. Oh and by the way your technology has also given you nuclear warfare, which is one of the things that will be instrumental in bringing about the end, so you actually play a part in the tragedy that you are totally unaware of, but that is not surprising, someone who is busy stuffing themselves rarely notices what is actually going on around them.

Just more proof that ID/creationism is more than just an attack on evolution. It is an attack on all of science. They would prefer to send us back to the Dark Ages.

Mat 5:30 “If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.

It is foolish to try to use the Creation to disprove/discount the Creator, revel in your achievements until the end, and then you will have nothing, your science will have profited you nothing and you will be swept away like chaff. The Bible is clear on this, if you choose to disregard it, that is your choice, but the fact that you are also choosing Hell is very clear. Then you will have no one to blame but yourself.

And how many body parts have you chopped off?

It is foolish to try to use the Creation to disprove/discount the Creator, revel in your achievements until the end, and then you will have nothing, your science will have profited you nothing and you will be swept away like chaff. The Bible is clear on this, if you choose to disregard it, that is your choice, but the fact that you are also choosing Hell is very clear. Then you will have no one to blame but yourself.

We've heard this all before... what makes your warnings any better than all the others?

Why would a spiritual concept make sense to someone that despises spiritual things?

Ask someone who despises spiritual things.

Mat 5:30 “If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.

A perfect description of why Christians should throw out ID/creationism:

"If the tenets of young earth creationism were true, basically all of the sciences of geology, cosmology, and biology would utterly collapse. It would be the same as saying 2 plus 2 is actually 5. The tragedy of young-earth creationism is that it takes a relatively recent and extreme view of Genesis, applies to it an unjustified scientific gloss, and then asks sincere and well-meaning seekers to swallow this whole, despite the massive discordance with decades of scientific evidence from multiple disciplines. Is it any wonder that many sadly turn away from faith concluding that they cannot believe in a God who asks for an abandonment of logic and reason?"--Dr. Francis Collins, "Faith and the Human Genome"

It is foolish to try to use the Creation to disprove/discount the Creator,

That's exactly what ID/creationists are doing by insisting on an interpretation of the Bible that conflicts with the Creation.

revel in your achievements until the end, and then you will have nothing, your science will have profited you nothing and you will be swept away like chaff. The Bible is clear on this, if you choose to disregard it, that is your choice, but the fact that you are also choosing Hell is very clear. Then you will have no one to blame but yourself.

If I told you that if you didn't convert to Hinduism you would burn in Hell, would that convince you to convert to Hinduism? If not, why do you think the same argument will work against me?

Why would a spiritual concept make sense to someone that despises spiritual things?

Just because someone rightly points out that your spiritual beliefs do not seem to hold any water does not mean that that person despises spiritual things.

I don't care what your book says.

You made a claim about me and what I supposedly believe or worship.

I'm here telling you that you are wrong about me.

Surely, you aren't so arrogant as to think that you know better then me, what I believe, right?

......right?
