Questions about origins of life timeline

[Kylie]

Not directly, but if the worms were the distant ancestor, you resulted from flatworm sex. Otherwise they are not an ancestor! Wouldn't it be (in your godless belief system) that flatworms begat some other worms or something similar, and they begat something else...on up the imaginary line to you!?

Admit it.

The ancestor was not a flatworm!!!!!

Do you comprehend it now? Do you really need the big writing version? Do you want a picture?

That's like asking if you can be the son of your brother. Life just doesn't work that way.

Funny song, but that isn't a blood relation, is it?

Didn't we just have a similiar conversation here: 77 ?

 

[Kylie]

But not the same...

 

[PsychoSarah]

Of course God made time and set the controls for it. In earth spacetime we have a certain way time unfolds! It takes a certain time for light to move, an isotope to decay, and etc etc.

What I was pointing out was that time is not limited to spacetime that we live in and know.

And none of that means god is beyond time, perhaps beyond our time, but not beyond time.

 

[EternalDragon]

Not quite, if you were able to control time you could do that, not if you were outside of it. The property of time is a measure of movement over distance, to be without time would be to be without change, you would be frozen completely in place, or worse, it would be essentially the same as not existing at all.

I really don't know how you could determine that. Can you quantify or explain time? Are we even subject to a concept called time?

Not being subject to time would be being free of it. A being outside of time could essentially go back and forth just as an animal that lives in the ocean or an animal that lives on the land can briefly venture out and in of those environments.

You aren't describing being outside of time, you are describing controlling it.

 

[EternalDragon]

You aren't describing being outside of time, you are describing controlling it.

Why have you been separating the two?

 

[PsychoSarah]

Why have you been separating the two?

Because being in control of time isn't the same as not having the physics of time.

The article I posted said it was a common ancestor. Can you be certain that man did not come from that line?

 

[dad]

Speculation. I vote that He is.

 

[dad]

You got any evidence to support this claim?

I keep asking you for evidence and you never provide any. Could it be that you don't have any evidence for it?

Need it in big writing, woman? OK.


The Bible IS Evidence and science has nothing else for what time is and is not!

 

[PsychoSarah]

Speculation. I vote that He is.

Why? What purpose would that serve other than to make god less plausible?

 

[PsychoSarah]

The article I posted said it was a common ancestor. Can you be certain that man did not come from that line?

Not right after. But yes, we share ancestry with flatworms, many millions of years ago our lineage split from theirs.

 

[dad]

Because we have time in our world, and universe that we know, and He made it! Why exempt time?

So you claim you could have come from flatworm sex...following the various splits?

 

[PsychoSarah]

Prior to the splits.

If god supposedly has always existed, why not time? Perhaps god's very existence generates time.

Not being subject to time would be being free of it. A being outside of time could essentially go back and forth just as an animal that lives in the ocean or an animal that lives on the land can briefly venture out and in of those environments.

A being outside of time would not have any time to go back, let alone forth
