No. I'm the guy who KNOWS that SEXUAL selection can be achieved as readily by human intervention, as by predation or climate. And that there is no "macro evolution".Aren't you the guy who thinks artificial selection in wheat production somehow proves macro evolution?
Your failures are not something to brag aboutYeah I quit listening to you a while ago.
Are you still holding up that massive strawman that creationist deny natural selection?No. I'm the guy who KNOWS that SEXUAL selection can be achieved as readily by human intervention, as by predation or climate. And that there is no "macro evolution".
Just as there is no "macro gestation", or "macro decay"
You have not shown that a cause is needed. You do not understand your logical fallacy.You have failed to show how anything could exist without a first cause.
Not a massive strawman since some do deny it.Are you still holding up that massive strawman that creationist deny natural selection?
So it's not guided? "By being neither.
There is no need to do that. We know that things exist. If you follow William Lane Craig I can guarantee that you do not understand the Kalam Cosmological Argument.You have failed to show how anything could exist without a first cause.
Yes, C.S. Lewis was not reasoning properly there. He is making an unjustified assumption.So it's not guided? "
"Men became scientific because they expected Law in Nature, and they expected Law in Nature because they believed in a Legislator. In most modern scientists this belief has died: it will be interesting to see how long their confidence in uniformity survives it. Two significant developments have already appeared—the hypothesis of a lawless sub-nature, and the surrender of the claim that science is true. We may be living nearer than we suppose to the end of the Scientific Age.’" ( CS Lewis)
And they are still trying to prop up the idea of a universe that has laws for no discernible reason.
And your challenges aren't?Yep. Your use of "challenges" is an automatic admission that you are wrong.
The only alternative to a Creator is nothing existing. If we find a cave painting ...even if it looks like a mentally deficient first grader did it ,we assume an intelligent being was involved.And the only alternative to your God is chaos. Got it.
That is a metaphysical proposition, not a scientific one. Science observes and studies orderly behavior in nature--that's as far as science goes into the question.You have failed to show how anything could exist without a first cause.
Nope. Mine are very few and far between. I have not abused that idea to death. Even worse for you, mine were not shown to be wrong.And your challenges aren't?
My Goosenecks challenge.
My scientific evidence challenge.
My Creationist Fossil Record Challenge
LOL -- sounds par.Nope. Mine are very few and far between. I have not abused that idea to death. Even worse for you, mine were not shown to be wrong.
Of course. When you keep losing arguments it gets repetitive after a while.LOL -- sounds par.
Notice that Tipler is specifically referring to his, "own special branch of physics." He will do creationists a huge favor when he comes up with testable hypothesis for his special branch of physics.Lol, there's evidence literally everywhere.

- “When I began my career as a cosmologist some twenty years ago, I was a convinced atheist. I never in my wildest dreams imagined that one day I would be writing a book purporting to show that the central claims of Judeo-Christian theology are in fact true, that these claims are straightforward deductions of the laws of physics as we now understand them. I have been forced into these conclusions by the inexorable logic of my own special branch of physics” (2)
Given that there is no such strawman for me to hold up.Are you still holding up that massive strawman that creationist deny natural selection?
Basically you have to appeal to your own ignorance and claim that because science can't explain a first cause, there probably wasn't one. But the very existance of rules in the universe should make the scientific argument for you, that something or someone outside of the universe had to set things in motion.That is a metaphysical proposition, not a scientific one. Science observes and studies orderly behavior in nature--that's as far as science goes into the question.
Okay, a physicist claims that Judeo-Christian theology can be derived from the laws of physics. That would be a great example if you could actually present how that works.Lol, there's evidence literally everywhere.
