Why does "15 Questions for Evolutionists" brochure confuse the meaning of "evolution?

I've been here a lot longer than you have,

What? On this planet, or, on this particular message board? :D


And, just so you know, some may be members of this particular message board for a mere hour, but are members of other message boards, as well. Plenty of new(er) members here have been members other message boards for many years. ;)


Finally - Do you honestly think that one's longevity on a message board gives their opinion/worldview any more weight or credibility? Also, are the opinions/worldviews of new(er) members less credible and less educated, simply because they're new(er) members?

I almost threw up watching this.
1. Energy can't just turn any non living matter into a living entity. A jar of peanut butter does not contain the necessary components for life to blossom. It just contains peanut butter.
2. Assuming that there was matter in the peanut butter that could form life, it would be microscopic. Would you expect a newborn squirrel to pop out? The answer is no, because any emerging life would be very simple.

Um ... I'm going to assume you watched the whole video; and saw the part where he says "the entire food industry"?

Actually, no being or thing can turn a random item into life.
Actually, God is so great He could even turn a Democrat into an intelligent life form.

Granted, he hasn't done it yet....

(PS. That is humor. for those of you who have never seen it before.)

AV complained about Christians "pestering" other Christians---and then he mocks a senior citizen Christian past his intellectual prime by posting one of the most infamous of "creation science" videos, second only to "banana man".
That mocked you, did it?

Why? because you use Superman peanut butter, instead of Jif?

You know you're losing an argument when you call into question someone's political stance when it's completely irrelevant to the matter at hand.

Republicans are not in anyway a representative of morals.

Obviously, considering that the whole food industry was mentioned prior to peanut butter being mentioned as a specific example.

My statement holds true for all food products.
So then you AGREE or DISAGREE with Mr. Missler?

I'm not losing anything, and humor, too, is one of God's creations. Too bad some people are too uptight to enjoy it.

Smile! Laugh! In 100 years none of this will mean anything to you!!!

Which party was it again who voted God out of its party platform?

Okay, enough politics. None of it matters. The only thing worse than a politician is another politician.

The reference was the Greatness of God, who spoke the world into existence from nothingness.

1. They couldn't tell abiogenesis from evolution, which is idiotic if you're attempting to discuss the matter.
2. "I would say this, any theory of the origin of life on earth, or any other planet as far as that's concerned, is a fairytale.". Notice how that encompasses your 'theory' as well? (I doubt he used the scientific theory when he made that argument, since it's so sloppily formulated)
3. "In fact, the entire food industry depends on the fact that evolution doesn't happen.". False. A vast majority of the food industry depends on evolution.

Anyways, that video doesn't give me any reason to suspect that abiogenesis is impossible.
