Jesus knows your body temperature? Is that reason to believe - if knowing apes points to Evolution?

[Gottservant]

Hi there,

So there is a standard of evidence issue, here - right?

If Jesus knows your body temperature...

is that the same standard of evidence that knowing apes is for Evolution?

We all want something to believe, or to discount something, whatever the case may be - doesn't holding a consistent standard of evidence, encourage a better result, than pinning it on chance?
I mean if you could evolve Jesus into an Elephant, I would believe the Elephant - something tells me you aren't going to take that seriously (as serious as I do?), but it is what it is...

I'm not hurt that you don't get what I am saying, I am just hurt you don't really know how to encourage me to develop an Evolution that is unique to me - like that me being me, is the same as being an elephant, you just don't care.

I mean if Jesus builds a device that reads your body temperature, that is to be preferred, to just responding to hot and cold Himself?

That sounds like it comes, from a lot of experience!

The very best encouragement that can be given is to first learn evolution through reliable scientific sources. Only then will you be able to make a recognizable and sensible critique of evolution.

If I had a dollar for every time I've heard someone say that...

... I am just hurt you don't really know how to encourage me to develop an Evolution that is unique to me - like that me being me, is the same as being an elephant, you just don't care.

I have no idea what that means, but I strongly encourage you to develop an Evolution that is unique to you...

If we came from apes -- which we didn't -- but if we came from apes, then why are apes still around?

The answer is that we didn't come from the apes that are still around.

We must have come either from some other kind of apes, or we came from a direct act of creation; and those other kinds of apes (called "common ancestors") are actually some other kind of animal that needs to be properly classified.

Therefore Jesus knows our body temperature.

If we came from the British, which we did, why are there still British around?

Wait a minute, this is the correct response.

You mean like a thermometer?

So if we're Great Apes because we came from Apes, are we Great Britains because we came from the British?

I didn’t come from the British.

 

[AV1611VET]

I didn’t come from the British.

I think I'll just take Phred's point with a grain of salt.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Wow, this thread is something else.

Nationality is not based on cladistics, though quite a few people would disagree with that on March 17.

 

[AV1611VET]

So much for Post 10 then.

Yes, and no. The argument is still valid. But technically we are not British. For a good percentage of use we could say European. The problem is that anyone that made the "why are there still monkey" argument is making the same argument as in Post 10. In other words, you fessed up to your own error, even though you do not understand how you have done so.

Did you read Post 8?
