(treeoflife;48535) Sounds like you could preach a message about the subtility of sin from a pulpit. There's nothing subtle about it.(treeoflife) No, I'm not honestly saying that at all. I am honestly giving you an honest answer about why "all the focus" is on homosexuality.You can say it's an...

(treeoflife) So, the various types of dogs, for example? Or, the difference between dogs and cats? The difference between dogs and cats has existed ever since God made dogs and made cats fully formed when He made them. ALL THE DIFFERENT dogs, however, have risen from one male and one female...

(treeoflife;48503) "What about materialism? What about self-centeredness?" What about them? They are sinful. However, nobody is out there, vehemently, and pointidly saying, verbatim, "materialism" (a general term), and "self-cernteredness" (also a general term) "IS GOOD AN OKAY!" If they...

(treeoflife;48505) I could say you're preaching as well. You just preach from a different set of beliefs. Call it what you will... preaching or discussing. The theory of evolution is fable. Evolution is not, but the theory that expands it to say we are evolved apes is. I'm not sure what...

(treeoflife;48430) Homosexuality is a large issue in society, and Christians talk about it because it is one sin in partcular that society is pushing as unsinful, and normal. If there was some other sin that society was pushing as non sinful and normal, we would protest the teaching of that...

(treeoflife;48433) As for me, my conscience is clear. As is mine.I would ask to get back to the subject of evolution, but I think you've made it clear that you are more interested in preaching than discussing.

(treeoflife;48397) Don't be so conceded. I wasn't only talking about you. I stand by what I said. Whether you were talking about just me (which your use of the word "you" and singular form certainly made it look like) or others, the fact remains that you've characterized me in precisely the...

(Called 2 Conquer;48353) I have noted that most non believe cherry pick the christian responses they are given. i am pretty sure I posted a bit more than what you responded too all of which is important to the case I made. For example, If you are a juror and all you listen too is the opening and...

(treeoflife;48360) If you, the Evolutionist I've already asked you to stop characterizing me by an archetype. The "Evolutionist" that you've described doesn't even remotely resemble the views I hold.(treeoflife) and if you can't connect the dots to realize that you are eventually arriving at...

(Called 2 Conquer) STOP MAKING EXUSES. You know in your heart what you are doing is wrong. I will leave you with this quote from Dr. David Jeramiah. An excuse is the skin of a reason stuffed with a lie. Called 2 Conquer:It's very kind that you want to help me. However, if you want to help...

(Wakka;48339) I've ventured far enough to realize that evolution is primarily based on assumptions. People only assume that man's predecessors were primates. They then look for anything that might support their hypothesis. Anything regardless if it is actually true or not. This is false. What...

(Wakka;48328) Assumption is the lowest, most degrading, form of knowledge (I wouldn't even call it knowledge). All evolution is, is assumption. Wakka:Why do you think this? Evolutionary theory is not only consistent with discoveries in biology and genetics and the fossil record, it has also been...

(Wakka;48321) Immediately after that last verse, there was the transfiguration of Christ. That is Christ being transfigured. It says very clearly, that Christ will come and every man will be rewarded according to his works. How could that be referring to the transfiguration? The second coming of...

(Wakka;48289) If that is the case, then tell my why prophecies in the Bible have been fulfilled 2000+ after the fact. The truth is that it couldn't have been put together by normal men. Wakka:We should probably start a separate thread if we want to discuss biblical prophecies, since this thread...

(medicalmatt;48121) Lunar,I am so overjoyed to hear that you have realized your sins, and realized that Jesus is the only one who can save you from those sins.What confuses me is how you can have any substance to that claim. What does "Savior" mean to you? How can you have a relationship with...

(treeoflife;48264) Well, I've said my peace. Your analogy was flamebait. I'm sorry if you find it offensive, but you've yet to show what's wrong with it.(treeoflife) The word "evolution", as I'm sure you know, simply means "change over time." Though the scientific term "biological evolution"...

(treeoflife;48236) The original storry is totally unrelated. You created a story that has nothing to do with the argument (shoes disappearing), and then implanted our theories (Evolution and Creation) in them where you saw fit. The theories don't talk about an item disappearing, they talk...

(treeoflife;48232) Your story is unrelated. It doesn't apply and doesn't follow.However, this story does.Suppose you go, "I wonder how these shoes were created." Now, we are on the same page. treeoflife:I'm afraid you missed the point. It's not unrelated - it is a point about explanatory...

(medicalmatt;48197) I've debated it extensively in the past, but it's mostly not worth my while. I'm sure you understand. That's fine. Evolution is a bit of a did horse nowadays, I find. (treeoflife;48213) My beginning is God, your beginning is... "Not God." Both possess mystical powers that go...

medicalmatt: I don't have either the inclination or the expertise to completely derail the topic from evolution to abiogenesis, since they're two completely separate theories. Truth be told I wasn't expecting the tangent to carry on as long as it did, but I feel as though it's becoming...
