• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Sorry but I find these explanations more convincing and trustworthy:





The illusion of physical reality is created by the patterns of the
Fibonacci Sequence - the Golden Spiral of Consciousness
consisting of zeros and ones that align with the grids.

If you don't find the evidence you posted earlier in the thread convincing, then why did you post it as evidence?
Because I consider it sufficient evidence to conclude mind in nature as the video title itself clearly indicates. Your premise is flawed BTW. Posting additional sources doesn't mean I reject the original. It merely means that I am posting additional sources as a repetition for emphasis. Hope you don't mind.

Because mathematical sequences of that kind which are programmed into the DNA indicate a mind. They aren't just programmed into plants, but also into animals as is demonstrated by how rabbits multiply. What do rabbits have to do with plants? Coincidence you say? Chemicals did it? Sorry but I just can't buy those explanations as feasible. What I detect is personal intentionality and preference and see absolutely no logical reason to conclude otherwise.

Trying to shoehorn "mathematical sequences" into reality is exactly the type of human-imagined-agency that I was mentioning in the other thread.

Your inability or even outright refusal to understand rather basic understandings of science is not evidence for a god. It appears that all that you have is an argument from ignorance, and that is a logical fallacy. But to make you feel better your use of a logical fallacy does not prove that gods do not exist. It only proves that you are wrong.

That appears to be an answer to a different question than the one I asked.

Posting additional sources doesn't mean I reject the original. It merely means that I am posting additional sources as a repetition for emphasis.

I didn't take your posting of additional sources meaning that you rejected the original. I took your statement that you found the sources you were posting to be "more convincing and trustworthy" than the ones that I had just demonstrated not to contain Fibonacci spirals to mean that you found them "more convincing and trustworthy" than the ones I had just demonstrated not to contain Fibonacci spirals.

So the question remains - if you didn't find the pictures you posted which I demonstrated to not contain Fibonacci spirals to be convincing and trustworthy evidence that nature is full of Fibonacci spirals, then why did you post them as evidence that nature is full of Fibonacci spirals?

I'm very disappointed that no one is interested in discussing the Busy Beaver sequence...
Perhaps if you explain why it demonstrates an intelligent designer atheists will immediately feverishly converge on it.

Not sure if I can do that... but it's certainly interesting.
It's simple enough:

The busy beaver game for Turing Machines was designed by Tibor Rado. Rado was a highly intelligent mathematician.

Now watch those atheists converge feverishly - or not, because there's really nothing interesting to see here.

But the fact that it will eventually dominate any computable function was just mind-blowing when I first learned about it.
