You're not exactly supporting your claim to have read a great deal about the subject with this definition...Jack_Racz said:Evolution- The idea various types of animals and plants have their orgins in other preexisting types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications over time and breeding.
Jack_Racz said:Yeah sure.

Was that ok?
toff said:Sorry, but if you say that there is no proof that evolution occurs, you ARE ignorant. As well as simply wrong.
I have made no personal attack. I have stated a simple fact. A person who does not know something is ignorant of that thing. You (apparently) do not know that evolution is repeatedly observed. That makes you ignorant of this fact.Jack_Racz said:Personal attcks have nothing to do with this, and if you can not go with out this sort of statement I will consider this discussion over.
Can you answer my question about the mechanism responsible for the post-deluvian diversification of "kinds" before you consider this discussion over? Thanks.Jack_Racz said:Personal attacks have nothing to do with this, and if you can not go with out this sort of statement I will consider this discussion over.
Arikay said:almost. What are the mechanisms that bring these changes?
Jack_Racz said:If the animals are seperated from others of the species or a change in climate occurs.
The idea is that if a need is there the animal will adapt, or mutate, to save the species.
Those are just two ways that it "can" start.
Good?
And you claim to have read lots of books on evolutionary theory?Jack_Racz said:If the animals are seperated from others of the species or a change in climate occurs.

Arikay said:To go along with finishing that question, what would you consider evidence for evolution?
No, you haven't. Nor have any of your posts demonstrated even the most elementary understanding of the theory of evolution - in fact, quite the reverse.Jack_Racz said:Done.
Sorry I didn't write a thesis for ya Dr. Toff.
Jack_Racz said:Mind if I ask a question?
What do you consider evidence for God?
Ok, what I would consider proof is that if you could tell me the difference between adapting and evolution, make it clear. Cause my house cat doesn't have a mountian lion in it's long line of relatives. And then I want to hear about one of these laboritoies have done to prove it. And if fruit flies get brought up I am going to be sick. I always hear that one...
no, but we can measure the sizes of stars through a number of different means. The diameter of betelgeuse was measured in the early 20th century, and this star is significantly bigger than our own. Also by examining the black body spectra of stars we can measure their surface temperature. This Surface temperature then relates to their size, since the hotter they are, the larger they are, because of the increased amount of Nuclear Fusion in their core. This increased heat leads to them being blue. So the large red giant stars and the hot blue stars are significantly bigger than our Sun, which is actually quite a standard, boring star.
The reason that space is full of light, is because the universe is not infinitely old, and space is not infinitely big. Therefore we only see the light from stars that are close enough to be seen.

But there is one thing I do have a problem with, If there are so many stars that they can not be counted, Meaning I could not put enough number on this page for the amount of stars out there) and there are all suns, some larger and some smaller, the amount of light coming this way would be so bright it would make night time day, no matter how far away they are, I do not believe we know the distance that our own suns lights go out in to space. I could be wrong, I do not know every thing.LOL But as I had said early in my post, the sun and stars are not my thing.

And without the Sun, plants could not live. That's my point. It's ridiculous to postulate that they could-therefore a literal Genesis is not a feasible option.Jack_Racz said:You are right that God created the sun after making plants. But light was made the first day.
You're wording is a little annoying
