What does having 96% chimp dna mean to you?

[Speedwell]

According to Darwinists sin evolved.

Is that so? Since you calim to know my thinking on the matter, perhaps you could expand a little about how I think sin evolved.

 

[Speedwell]

If we don't, science will rush in and fill the gap with their Godless version of the origin of our physical bodies.

They've already filled it with evolution, which is indifferent as to whether there is a God or not--as it should be with any sicentific theory, like the "godless" theory of gravity, the "godless" theory of thermodynamics and many others.

Thanks for the QED.

Darwinism is the basis for alternative ideas and thinking of how things came to be.
Evolution is not just limited to biological origins and life.
It is the foundation for other spheres of academia.

Darwinist anthropology claims that religions evolved and thus ideas and teachings on
sin and being a good citizen also evolved.
Religion is the invention of humankind, a social and political construct.

But the truth of the matter is that religion is given by revelation.
When Jesus created human beings some 40,000+ years ago they all would have known
directly of the Creation and worshipped the great Spirit that created them.
But over these millennia religion has deteriorated and degenerated [fallen] from the truth
and become a myriad of creation myths and stories derived from a long-forgotten origin.

Hence today anthropologists and Bible scholars claim that religious texts and stories evolved
from one previous culture to the next.

Why do we have so many religions and denominations of the same?

"Darwinist anthropology?" And here I thought we were talking about the biological theory of evolution.

 

[doubtingmerle]

Evolved brains??!!
And yet at times humans can be the dumbest of all species on the planet.

No kidding!

I've read some of the things they have written here.

 

[doubtingmerle]

so if this object was able to reproduce (or making babies) then its not a car anymore according to this criteria:

How does it reproduce itself?

If it makes a single cell with DNA that directs the building of other cells to build a multicellular offspring, then it is an animal, not a car.

If it carries a machine shop and robots to manufacture a replica, then it is a machine shop on wheels and not a car.

When is a car not a car? As a kid the punchline was, "when it turns into a driveway"', but with you, the punchline is, "when Xianghua sees it have a baby."

 

[doubtingmerle]

And here I thought we were talking about the biological theory of evolution.

I thought we were talking about cars having babies.

 

[AV1611VET]

Why do we have so many religions and denominations of the same?

1. Some churches place an emphasis on one doctrine over another.

2. Satan is a master deceiver.

3. Churches that refuse to admit error will ostracize someone, who will go out and found another church.

4. Societal and political issues.

5. Cults.

 

[doubtingmerle]

According to Darwinists sin evolved.

If "sin" is "the transgression of the law" then sin did not evolve. Almost all of evolution of behavior occurred before the law even existed.

 

[doubtingmerle]

They're the ones with a plethora of ever changing fairytales about where we come from,
and how it all happened.

interesting.

The only one of that plethora I am familiar with is the view that we descended from a common ancestor with apes through mutations and natural selection. Care to share a couple of the other views you are hearing from Darwinists?

 

[Waggles]

Yeah like all that evolution nonsense.

 

[Waggles]

Books on evolution and what happened are always being rewritten and revised
due to the constant "discovery" of evidence that refutes previous speculation.

Oh, the irony of criticizing the quest for knowledge by posting on the Internet.

Also, what is it with fundamentalist views and this idea that learning new things is a weakness? Never understood that.

Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

 

[DogmaHunter]

the same for a motor?

yes.

 

[DogmaHunter]

so if this object was able to reproduce (or making babies) then its not a car anymore according to this criteria:

But that cars can't do that.
No car can do that.

The very implication of the word "car", is that it doesn't do that.

 

[DogmaHunter]

Evolution is not just limited to biological origins and life.

"not just"?
Evolution has, in fact, nothing to say about "biological origins".

Evolution talks about the origins of species, the process that existing life is subject to.
It has nothing to say about the origins of life itself.

It is the foundation for other spheres of academia.

Sure. You could call it "the unified field theory of biology".

Darwinist anthropology claims that religions evolved

Well, they demonstrably did, didn't they?
Just look at the history of abrahamic religion in the middle east. Eventhough that might be a bit hard for you with your christian bias.

But clearly, we can trace the very roots of judaism back to the polytheistic religions that existed in those very regions.

Ancient Polytheism: root
Judaism: abrahamic religion 1.0
Christianity: 2.0
Islam: 3.0

To this day, new religions are being invented.

Religion is the invention of humankind, a social and political construct.

I agree. Common sense dictates this even.
There are hundreds of religions available. All of the mutually exclusive. Necessarily, at least 99.99% of them must have been invented and can not be correct.

More then likely, since all religions make the same type of claims (without support), this is the case for 100% of them.

But the truth of the matter is that religion is given by revelation.

That's what all the religions claim, yes.
But as said above, they can't all be right. But they CAN all be wrong....

When Jesus created human beings some 40,000+ years ago they all would have known
directly of the Creation and worshipped the great Spirit that created them.

But then somehow, they managed to forget about it.
Strange, isn't it?

But over these millennia religion has deteriorated and degenerated [fallen] from the truth
and become a myriad of creation myths and stories derived from a long-forgotten origin.

The actually timeline of human history does not support your beliefs.
Monotheism came AFTER polytheism. And long after it as well.

There is zero reason to believe that religion started out as a SINGLE belief in a monotheistic religion. There is MUCH reason to believe that abrahamic monotheism was developed out of polytheistic religions - and not even that long ago.

Hence today anthropologists and Bible scholars claim that religious texts and stories evolved
from one previous culture to the next.

Which is obviously the case...........

 

[DogmaHunter]

Also, what is it with fundamentalist views and this idea that learning new things is a weakness? Never understood that.

My theory is that because deep down, they know the nonsense they believe isn't actually true.
And they don't want to be slapped in the face with black on white evidence that they have nonsense beliefs.
