There couldn't be a more asinine approach to knowledge. You can literally replace "God" with "Dumbledore," and claim it's true because it's true.
Poppycock, it's because of evidence that I accept ToE, and reject creationism. It's because the lack of evidence that I'm atheist.I'm not making an argument, just a point.
You can throw evidence at creationists/atheists all day and it will not change their mind.
Whaaat!? An atheist that doesn't believe in our Creator or His Son?!?!? Come on! You have to be kidding me. But seriously, just for a moment. I have often wondered if God would have permitted Satan to "plant" dinosaur evidence. I mean, after all, they are not alive so God would not need to allow Satan to create life. But meanwhile, we get to keep what are otherwise stated to be living fossils such as the coelacanths which scientists were certain to have gone extinct 40 million years ago. And then we still have the frilled shark that is today considered prehistoric, and the alligator and crocodile, both living fossils. And then we still have the apes with absolutely no living evidence of something existing between the two. No, they have not found it, but you believe it I bet. I can put the same samples into a cave as a birth defect human rejected and pushed out by the tribe, but secretly cared for by the mother and father. Nope, there is no half ape half human. Just one or the other.I'm not impressed by arguments from incredulity.

ToE is a fact. I'm sorry you don't understand it, but that's not my fault, it's yours.Whaaat!? An atheist that doesn't believe in our Creator or His Son?!?!? Come on! You have to be kidding me.

No my friend, I was like you once. I was actually worse. I had been raised to believe, then I denied and I did not believe at all. But at one point when I hit the rock bottom I had an encounter with our Lord and I knew I was wrong. And another and another and then I knew that the Bible is real, and that God is real, and that Jesus is real, and none of them are dead. I don't believe. I know!ToE is a fact. I'm sorry you don't understand it, but that's not my fault, it's yours.
Amen. 'you know, I was looking for a scriptural reference which stated that I must convince X (fill in any number from 1 to infinity) evolutionists, deists, atheists, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindu, Great White Sharks, or anybody that God is our Creator and Father in Heaven, that Jesus was his only begotten Son, that the Holy Spirit was left behind to help us, that all three are one called the Holy Trinity in order to get a ticket called "Saved". I am still looking, sort of, but so far I am still at a big, fat, zero.It is fact which has given Evolutions a black eye - out of billions of fossils inspected and documented there is not one single sequence/succession that shows Evolution by the fossil record.
Not one sequence showing morphological changes of one lifeform changing into another lifeform.
Again, not one evidence has been found.
What the fossil record does show is how God over time would have made Kinds of lifeforms. The fossil record proves this - since there is not one case of displaying by physical remains of postulated evolution of life forms.
Again, out of billions of fossils not one sequence showing hard physical fact of morphological change of one lifeform changing into another lifeform.
This is called no foundation for Evolution.
The fossil record instead has tantamount evidence in how God would have developed life over time. And their remains we would have physical evidence to display before all.
It is time for bias debaters and believers in Evolution to face up to the obvious. What the fossil record really shows.
Yep, religion can be a crutch for some. Nothing unusual about finding a rubric that seemingly helps better your life, and once adopted, we willingly accept things we may know deep down aren't real, but we go along because the alternative of "rock bottom" scares us more than a desire for the truth.No my friend, I was like you once.

That's OK. Many of us "evolutionists" believe it already.Amen.

This physical world is a reality just as the spiritual world is a reality. That is true. What we believe about the physical world is not the same things that we believe about the spiritual. But we should see God in both.As a machine designer and an employee working on the Superconducting Super Collidor I frequently demanded proof of God, until one day I realized that the scientific world and the spiritual world will never reside side by side in harmony in the conscious thoughts of mankind. If we were spiritually permanent seeking temporary physical existence it would work. But as a temporary physical being seeking permanent spiritual existence with our creator, those two things simply will not thrive in our minds. You can't have it both ways.
And what I said can be physically true in the Christian world. I do not think that God would have allowed Satan to create life, but I can see God allowing Satan to plant physical evidence in the form of bones and impressions just as he allowed Job to be put through a series of tests. As I said, finding and cataloging evidence of evolution from ancient dinosaurs only began in earnest in the mid 1600's and only a few then. It really picked up in the 1800's as man wanted so desperately to get away from God. Since I don't see any evidence that the Bible can be contradicted by planted evidence and still be true then I can believe it if I wanted to. But then I no longer need any such evidence to know that God exists yesterday, today, and tomorrow.This physical world is a reality just as the spiritual world is a reality. That is true. What we believe about the physical world is not the same things that we believe about the spiritual. But we should see God in both.
What is sad is that both atheists and most Christians believe the same lie, that the Bible and science/nature are in conflict with each other.
God never said that or even implied that. He said just the opposite.
Are you saying that when God created the earth satan planted fossils and bones of animals that didn't exist yet?And what I said can be physically true in the Christian world. I do not think that God would have allowed Satan to create life, but I can see God allowing Satan to plant physical evidence in the form of bones and impressions just as he allowed Job to be put through a series of tests.
I’ve seen that as far as creationists but atheists usually aren’t that immatureYou can throw evidence at creationists/atheists all day and it will not change their mind.
I haven’t seen that “The-devil-put -dem- bones- there argument for literally decades. SMH. By the way , genetics confirmed what “ dem bones “ was telling us all along. That we’re related to all other organismsWhaaat!? An atheist that doesn't believe in our Creator or His Son?!?!? Come on! You have to be kidding me. But seriously, just for a moment.

The arguments for evolution and for God are similar in that despite overwhelming evidence for both there will always be people who refuse to believe in at least one of them.
It really picked up in the 1800's as man wanted so desperately to get away from God.
Man wanted to follow his lusts and debauchery and believing in God was getting in the way. That is in fact, written in history.That literally never happened.
