That's not constructive criticism.
But directly to your point,
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed.
Mass at rest and motionless remains at rest and motionless unless acted upon.
So...given an empty void, why did something just happen?
I challenged the evocrew. They claim to know more about evolution than you or I, mind you, and I've seen thousands of evostories. I challenged them to produce one evostory which withstands scrutiny. Think about that. One! Surely in such a vast mountain of "science" there should be something worthy.
I never promised to go element by element, attempting to debunk every single lie, did I? I recall committing to tackle precisely one. Is my memory faulty?Here is your challenge:Given the size of vertebrate genomes (>1 × 109 bp) and the random nature of retroviral integration (22, 23), multiple integrations (and subsequent fixation) of ERV loci at precisely the same location are highly unlikely (24). Therefore, an ERV locus shared by two or more species is descended from a single integration event and is proof that the species share a common ancestor into whose germ line the original integration took place (14).If I am able to show that humans and chimps share thousands of retroviral insertions at the same loci in their genome, can you please explain why this is not evidence of humans and chimps sharing a common ancestor?
Constructing primate phylogenies from ancient retrovirus sequences
Also, you claimed that evos are lying, and yet you can't point to a single one. Why is that? Do you always accuse people of lying even when you have no proof of it? Isn't that called "bearing false witness"? Are there only 9 commandments in your Bible?
I would agree with your comments were we in the Exploring Christianity forum. But these are the sciences forums.Maybe if you guys didn't spend an inordinately large amount of your time and focus on Him, we would think otherwise.
Maybe if atheists stopped acting like they know the Bible through-and-through, using Strong's concordance, copy-and-pasting chunks of this, that, and the other thing, etc. and so-on, we would think otherwise.
As I have said before:
You guys act like you're experts on OEC, YEC, Embedded Age, Last Thursday, and Omphalos -- even going as far as to tell me what I am, despite what's in my profile.
- Mention Allah = meh
- Mention Joseph Smith = meh
- Mention Zeus, Thor, Wooden = meh
- Mention Jesus Christ = look out! It's 20-questions from the atheist camp!
If you knew the Koran or the Bhagavad-Gita 1/100 of what you "know" about the Bible, maybe I'd assume you might have a case for the points you make; but you're focus is solely and totally against Jesus Christ and the Bible.
I don't know -- I haven't been there -- but I'd venture a guess and say you guys won't be found discussing these things in the Jewish threads, or the Mormon threads, or wherever.
And that's probably because they'd rip you apart with documentation you probably haven't even begun to know existed, then send you back here with egg on your faces.
It's okay to tell a Gap theorist that Gap theory is wrong, isn't it? or an Embedded Ager that Embedded Age is wrong -- but I'll bet you 10 cents on the dollar you wouldn't dare go to the Jewish threads and tell them they are ignorant, bronze-age, goat herders, would you?
I hope you do not get that impression of me.Ya -- I get the impression you guys hate Jesus Christ too -- along with His followers.

Sore losers...
Typical self-contradiction. Why bother looking unless one believes one's own eyes?Why not take belief out of the equation and look at the evidence?
Oh, you bet.
In the future, we aren't even going to need the sun, and neither will plants.
There will even be a tree that bears a different fruit each month; and lions that eat ... get this ... straw!
More backward conclusions, eh?So I see that you can't expose the "evolies". Thanks for playing.
More backward conclusions, eh?
If there was something worthy, why wasn't it presented?
Your bluff is for fools, exclusively. I slay one, you bring another.
Ever hear of a fallacy called 'infinite regress'? There is no limit to the number of false statements you can generate.
What I do deny is your fantasy that your capacity to generate false statements makes you strong.
I have demonstrated that Evolanders themselves have zero confidence in the mountain of spam. That was my objective, and it's accomplished. I won. ...And it was so easy anyone could've done it.
Typical self-contradiction. Why bother looking unless one believes one's own eyes?
And even after that, there are plenty more beliefs involved. Boy!
Garbage. If you didn't believe your own eyes, you wouldn't have responded to my post.You don't need to believe your own eyes.Typical self-contradiction. Why bother looking unless one believes one's own eyes?
Real empirical science is powerful, and it's observation based. It's also faith based, as is any productive activity. Your perversion of empirical methodology is disgusting.That is why empirical evidence is so powerful.
The very sentence before the silly question. There's no escaping belief.You can check to see if your findings are the same as other people's findings. If everyone gets the same results from the same experiment then it is accepted as a valid result.
Such as?And even after that, there are plenty more beliefs involved. Boy!
Why not take belief out of the equation and look at the evidence?
As I have said before, when it comes to evolution, evolutionists like to skip over 9 billion years of non-biological evolution and jump right to life -- up and running like clockwork.
And as Mr. Morowitz points out, to even get at the basic unit of life, you have to gloss over a 1/10[sup]340,000,000[/sup] chance of getting there.
It takes more faith to believe evolutionism than it does creationism, doesn't it?
I could also ask "what does the probability of a simple organism pulling itself together randomly in a single event have to do ... It isn't applicable to anything in science today.
Real empirical science is powerful, and it's observation based. It's also faith based, as is any productive activity. Your perversion of empirical methodology is disgusting.
The very sentence before the silly question. There's no escaping belief.
It is impossible to take belief out of the equation, and obviously so. One cannot look without believing one's eyes. One cannot recognize evidence without having some belief about the evidence. One cannot apply logic without faith in logic. One cannot conduct experiment without faith in the process and faith in the laws the Living God has established.
Seriously, no.Oh, you bet.
In the future, we aren't even going to need the sun, and neither will plants.
There will even be a tree that bears a different fruit each month; and lions that eat ... get this ... straw!
Seriously, do you just make this stuff up?
Seriously, no.
Revelation 22:5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Isaiah 11:7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

It has a tendency to catch the uneducated* off-guard and make them look bad if they laugh.REV is fun to read, but it is just crazy talk!
Seriously, do you just make this stuff up?
1 Thessalonians 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.So someone else made it up. Other than 'faith', why would one take the above literally?
Is there any evidence that you would accept as evidence for humans sharing a common ancestor with other apes?
