Christians believe in a Creator

No the Theory of Evolution makes no comment on there being a creator or not. Your postulate is shown false the the large number of Christians that accept the Theory of Evolution as valid.

Exactly what? That the statement "there is no evidence for evolution" isn't true?

I find the whole discusion insulting in the highest to the unfathomable creator of all the universe...Lord may you have mercy on us....

picking on a typo, rather than the post, does not refute the initial post. Text book exmple of ad hominem falicy.

Why?

Can you show me where in the theory of evolution that it does teach that there is a loving and very real creator of all the universe??

I find the idea of imposing a humanly understandable timescale of 6000 years on a truly awsome God insulting.

Surely setting the universe in motion 14 billion years ago and knowing exactly how it would turn out from the start is vastly more impressive than belief in an old guy in robe with beard micro managing creation in a 3 by 5 universe just 6000 years ago?

No. Can you show me where in the theory of gravity that it does teach that there is a loving and very real creator of all the universe?

Giant · Sep 15, 2006

6000 years - where do you get that figure from???

Giant · Sep 15, 2006

No. Can you show me where in the theory of gravity that there is a loving and very real creator of all the universe?

yes. I stay on the earth even though Im down under

What? How does that address God?

The point is that scientific theories do not deal with the supernatural. Why would you expect the theory of evolution to? That is your argument against it, right?

Your statement is about philosophy, with value judgements like "loving". Evolution is science, which is different to philosophy, and deals in fact, not value. Trying to counter one with the other is like a water polo goaly defending against a dressage rider

so you don't believe in 6000 years of creation... how old would you say the universe is then?

Cite one post from me where I said this earth is 6000 years old (w/o it being a typo), or please drop that accusation.

1. Explain evolution in light of a 6000 year universe - (Genesis 1).

The Earth is n-millions of years old, but has only been in existence for 6000 years.

The Earth has had life on it for only 6000 years - (Genesis 1).

And there are more in the same thread and others.

Im not real smart guys so bear with me
I would say the universe is way old...like billions of years

LightHorseman · Sep 15, 2006

I would say the universe is way old...like billions of years

OK, so what have humans been doing all that time?
