My Aliens challenge

[AV1611VET]

Other than your ignorance of science, what do you think was demonstrated?

Your ignorance of Bible terms.

You asked for an example to my Number Three point.

You don't even realize science plutoed "child in the womb" to "fetus," do you?

How about "miracles" to "magic"?

 

[Mr Laurier]

Your history needs an upgrade, my friend.

How so?

Science was to blame for the French Revolution.

Np. The greed and callus cruelty of the Versailles court. Plus their utter lack of connection to reality... Added to the brutal taxation of the proletariat. And a string of military failures abroad.
Science was not even in the top 10 reasons why the french rose up against the idle nobility. Taxation was though.

Their attempt to mess with things they shouldn't have been messing with was so oppressive to the common people, they decided they'd had enough.

That was not science. It was hereditary nobility, backed by the church.

Trying to change the times to ten-hour days, with ten-day weeks and ten-month years just didn't cut it.

And those ideas came AFTER the revolution. And were also not science.
The proposal of a decimal calendar was offered by a group of early industrialists. And was rejected out of hand, based on scientific fact.
The scientists blocked the industrialists from screwing up the calendar.

FYI fetus pre-dates child in the womb. Who has done the changing? And I'm not aware of any scientific publication where "miracle" has been replaced by "magic". Could you provide a specific example?

 

[Bungle_Bear]

I'm sure we would.

Anyone who believes Jesus walked on water deserves to fail any exam, don't they?

Non sequitur.

 

[Mr Laurier]

Not at all.

Thanks for the QED.

 

[AV1611VET]

Non sequitur.

Until it does sequiter ... right?

 

[AV1611VET]

Not at all.

I really wish you'd spend more time here.

 

[Bungle_Bear]

Thanks for the QED.

Lol. Demonstrating your errors and asking for evidence of non-existent things is now taken as a demonstration of you being correct?

Priceless.

 

[Mr Laurier]

I really wish you'd spend more time here.

I am usually busy with life.
I am currently sick with covid. So I have time.

Praying for you.

(And not to a milk carton, either.)

 

[Bungle_Bear]

Praying for you.

(And not to a milk carton, either.)

Let me guess - if what you're praying for happens, that's evidence of the power of prayer. But if it doesn't happen, that's evidence that God has other plans, right?

Heads you win, tails I lose.....

That's about it.

Is your glass half-full or half-empty?

 

[Bungle_Bear]

That's about it.

Depends. Was I filling it or drinking from it?

I'm not sure how this thread became so dumb.

The OP offers at least an interesting challenge, and very few people have actually attempted it.

If you haven't, give post #1 another read and see if it inspires any answers.

Post 5 please.

(Would you know the answer, if you saw it?)

There may be a book titled
Trolls: their care and feeding

 

[driewerf]

My personal opinion is that as evolution is false there are no aliens out there,

1) The Theory of Evolution is rock solid and well supported by a wide variety of evidence from different subsectons of the life sciences.
2) Please explainhow "evolution being false", this means there can't be aliens.
3) One of the set up of this challnge is to assume (rightly or wrongly doesn't matter) that aliens exist
4) The OP didn't mention evolutio at all, so it is unnecessary to bring it up. The OP is about the age of the earth. Or are you so ignorant that you don't know the difference between geophysics and biology?
5) If you are indeed so ignorant, how should we asses your statement that "evolution is false"?
That's a lot for just half a sentence.

so I'm hummouring an atheist.

Trolling thus.

 

[driewerf]

The book Origins of Species, makes no claims about the age of the earth, so it would not be very useful to them anyways.
I'm sure they would be able to measure the ratio of lead to uranium in a few rock samples. They would determine the Earth to be at least 3.5 billion years old. That being the age of the oldest exposed large scale formations.

You are right, of course, and I am wrong. I should have mentioned some passages from 'The Voyage of the Beagle" or "Principles of Geology" from Charles Lyell. A mistake I wont make anymore.

1) The Theory of Evolution is rock solid and well supported by a wide variety of evidence from different subsections of the life sciences.

After how much fidgeting with the data?
