Madagascar and Australia, a question for creationists.

Whatever you like I don't care, either way all I know is there is no such thing as magic, well perhaps television and mobile phones are magic, calling my sister on the other side of the planet in real time will always be magical for me.
Science is magic.

What I meant was "evolved" as in "evolution"? Do you believe in evolution by Darwin?

 

[HitchSlap]

Evolved from what?

Of course. It's the only game in town.

Not the ONLY Game. There is Creation. But, I see you are an atheist, so it probably is the only game for you.

 

[HitchSlap]

Not the ONLY Game. There is Creation. But, I see you are an atheist, so it probably is the only game for you.

It's the only game for anyone interested in the evidence. I also accept the germ theory of disease and the theory of gravity.

Not by Darwin--evolutionary biology has moved on quite a bit since Darwin's day. And I don't "believe" it--I accept it provisionally (as with all scientific theories) as plausible and the best explanation of the data currently available.

Darwin is old hat because evolution has moved way past Mr Darwin and people don't believe in evolution they accept evolution as being the best explanation without needing to resort to magic.
I don't suppose you accept evolution because if you are a creationist you were deliberately kept well away from it for 'your own good', so much for teaching both sides, why were you not taught about evolution and creationism?

 

[Speedwell]

Evolution and other findings of science do not exclude Creation.

There is zero evidence for creationism. Modern creationism was dreamed up by an evangelical hydrologist as a means for protecting a literal view of G1/2, nothing more.

And automobile has come a long way since Henry Ford and the Model T, as well. Doesn't mean Darwin's "dangerous idea" was not ground breaking or significant. Probably the most important discovery of the nineteenth century.

 

[Archie the Preacher]

Hi archie,

You seem to have a real problem with this idea of lying. All I said was that your testimony was that you didn't know whether or not the shadow of the sun moved back 10 steps, but that I did. How you work out that I'm calling you a liar is quite beyond me. All that says is that I know something that you don't, according to your own testimony.

God bless you,
In Christ, ted

Ted, you've proven beyond all doubt you argue and think exactly like a God denier, except with a different goal. That's all.

ROFL Now I know you're just here to pull everybody's legs. Okay, have at it. Nobody is going to fall for it. Have fun.

 

[USincognito]

I wouldn't bother mate, God did it, we know that because the Bible says so. And after the flood God made all the animals go wherever he chose and he doesn't have to explain himself to you or anyone else. Oh and by the way, you'll get your just desserts when he returns, so you better get with the programme. There, that solves it all.

Cool story bro.

 

[USincognito]

It's the Jacobean-era spelling of "vaxen". (Vaxen, in case you aren't familiar with them, were popular computers during the 80s.)

Not as popular as Wangs.

Evolved from what?

Lemurs, for example, evolved from earlier prosimians. Kangaroos, for example, evolved from earlier diprotodonts.

 

[USincognito]

What I meant was "evolved" as in "evolution"? Do you believe in evolution by Darwin?

Since Darwin wasn't alive 20,000,000 years ago he was not involved in the evolution of the flora and fauna of Madagascar and Australia. Also one does not "believe in" a scientific theory. One accepts it based on the evidence.

 

[USincognito]

Not the ONLY Game. There is Creation. But, I see you are an atheist, so it probably is the only game for you.

You're equivocating. Creation is a theological doctrine. Creationism is an ersatz science proposition. The counter proposition to evolution is Creationism.

Morris and Whitcomb "borrowed" George McReedy Price's ideas and stripped away the Adventist theology. They didn't even come up with the idea themselves.

Evolution is a non-proven theory, full of holes.

Like what? Pick a hole, and we can discuss it.
