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.
But faith is a demonstrably bad way to accept an idea. Even you agree with this. There are many more people who believe in non-Christian gods, yet you feel their faith is misplaced.
Have you never had faith in a friend who subsequently let you down?
Why would you want to rely on a mechanism that can so easily fool you?
Some information Evolutionists conveniently ignore. When you've read it, lads and lassies, go the Uncommon Descent, and keep up to date with it, then you won't keep embarrassing yourselves:

Incidentally, quantum mechanics makes it clear that mind - and that means the personal mind of the Observer - is the basic reality, not matter. Observation of reality is intersubjective. There is no such thing as objective reality. That should have been a hammer-blow to materialists, eighty years ago.
But God has never failed to answer my prayers.

Does this apply to asking mom for an ice cream cone?When every possible outcome can be twisted into "god answered my prayers", then answered prayer has no meaning.
Definition of answered prayer: any and all possible outcomes from my prayer.
Pray to a rock and see if anything is different.
Creationism teaches you that when you go fishing to make sure your net is in good repair because you will be catching more fish then you will know what to do with.
As I have been predicting for years.Nearly 200 posts and not a single creationist can produce viable scientific research to support their claims.
My question is, whoever said the scientific answer is the right answer?
Mankind has a 6,000 year history of interacting with his Creator.
What if the creation did not happen using natural law, but rather in defiance of it?
A purely scientific answer can only be true in the absence of supernatural causation. If God created the world, then studying cosmology for 60 years will not bring you one step closer to the truth; nor does it make you any more enlightened than a seven year old who believes that all things were created by God.
Some information Evolutionists conveniently ignore. When you've read it, lads and lassies, go the Uncommon Descent, and keep up to date with it, then you won't keep embarrassing yourselves:
1) Only minor variations within species have been demonstrated or observed!
2) coded sequential information such as that found in DNA has never been seen to originate from any unguided chemical processes!
3) life reduction experiments clearly show there are NO EXAMPLES of simpler life that evolutionists postulate must have existed to give rise to the functionally complex life we see today!
4) selective breeding only results in trait optimization and distinct limits not new morphological distinction!
5) mutations are a degenerative process that accrues more prohibitively operational damage than it can possibly overcome by any controversial or occasional good mutation!
6) Examples of Macro evolution cited by evolutionists are totally within the bounds of a known process called ADAPTATION and do not result in new body plans or body parts that build new function.

Why waste your time arguing against something that you believe does not exist. Would you waste this time arguing against the existence of sAnta clause. Who are you trying to convince, yourself or believers?
That's solid aurum, 46.
You keep asking questions until you get an answer you don't like, then you terminate the conversation with ridicule.
And you guys wonder why I call you Internet scientists?
I said can't be proven to YOU! God does not reveal Himself to those who have no faith. God reveals Himself to His own, who have first accepted the gift of salvation. Proving Himself to the unsaved removes the element of faith, and thus damns him forever.
God has "proven" himself more than one normally requires of anyone when you are talking with them.
I've never seen the Holy Spirit in a persons life other than Christian.
I've known many "Christians" without Spirit fill lives, but I've never
seen non-Christians filled with the Spirit.
But God has never failed to answer my prayers.

The filling of the Holy Spirit can come more than once. I forget who it was ... Paul or Stephen ... but he was 'filled with the Spirit' twice.So you are disagreeing with AV that it is the Holy Spirit which convinces you that your faith in Christ is the correct faith, since you have already been convinced by the time you receive the Holy Spirit?
The concept is the same: God says YES, NO, or WAIT; so does mom.Are you implying that god and mom are the same thing?
God gifts us doctors and expects us to use them.There would be no "no". Would god help you if you had a broken leg?
If you had cancer and it was within mom's power to cure you, she WOULD. Would god?
The concept is the same: God says YES, NO, or WAIT; so does mom.
God gifts us doctors and expects us to use them.
As Jesus said ...
Luke 5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
Please read that verse and answer this simple question:
Who did Jesus say sick people needed?
We know the Bible is the word of God because when we test the word it works. Science often can not deliver on what they say they can deliver on. Science often does not have solutions or answers. God always delivers, HE does not disappoint, He always has the answer for every question. He always has the solution for every problem. To be sure it is not our solution. That it just another way that we know God is at work because often the solution is something we never thought of.You know it was God's word because you have faith.
