(NTReader;42602) I disagree with this reply. From a fundamentalist perspective in respect to intelligent design, I think you can reasonably conclude that the environment around us, the natural resources we consume, the world we inhabit, etc. are all the result of a creator. The things we witness...

1. There is no evidence that atheism is a reasonably correct view of life! - Not insulting.2. Atheism is originally based upon individuals personal battle with God! - Yes. This is inacurate at best and inflamatory at worst. It's akin to stating, "Christians don't really care about Jesus. They...

(VISIONARY;42355) Well, I am happy to give mine. Of course there was intelligent design, my clear eye lens and ears did not happen randomly. If they were, they could just as easily been connected to my stomach. While I agree that your ears and eyes didn't happen randomly, understand that...

(Remagoen;36831) In all the debates before, the Bible has always come up. I've read it, albeit not the whole thing, but a considerable chunk of it. Have you ever researched the political climate of Judea in the first centuries? (bce and ce)

(Amira;42219) Dear Saint Gutfree,I do not wish to be rude, but if I may point you to my first post, the purpose of this thread was not to start a debate on evolution vs creationism. My apologies if we're off-topic, but threads going off-topic seems to be a common occurance on these forums. I...

(Jackie D;42184) what I gain from it is not crowding my mind with stuff that will not make one bit of difference to me or anyone else in this world at the end. But you don't really believe that. If you did, then why learn anything EXCEPT the bible? Why go to college? Why graduate from high...

(Jackie D;42165) With that I will bow out of this conversation for I care not to know your "wisdom"God bless you Thanks. However, this isn't about anything so lofty as wisdom. It's about getting the truth. Again, most Christians have no problem with adopting a figurative understanding of...

(Jackie D;42163) Do you? well then you must know God..... I don't understand why Christians have an issue with this. Most of the Christians I'm used to discussing things with have adopted the stance that science's explanation (old earth / evolution) was empowered by god. For most, there is no...

(Jackie D;42159) we do own the Truth.... If I've upset you then I apologize. I'm used to another forum where several of the Christians champion the evolution side of the debate. In discussions of religion, it's perfectly acceptable for people to offer different views and agree to disagree on...

(Jackie D;42153) My two cents are that there is probably some correctness in evolution, creationism and even thermodynamics BUT since much of these sciences are based on theory ... You misunderstand what a theory is. You're mistaking it for an hypothesis. Let's draw the analogy that science is...

(arniem;42141) Old age earth and / or the theory of evolution continually uses one equation in EVERY formula and explaination;That equation is ... "millions and millions and millions of years" ...... That's because we have solid evidence the Earth is 4.5 billion years old. Remove it and the...

(arniem;42147) Anyone out there who is good at mathematics I need your assistance. I had all these figures at one time but they are filed away somewhere.....it is accepted fact that we are in an expanding universe....the rate , especially in our solar system can be measured and proven....it has...

(Remagoen;42121) Saint Gutfree, would you mind if I refer people to this thread? I had gotten into several tussles all over the web about evolution and you seem to explain it so much better than I. Please do.

(Two;42036) I hope this thread is not headed toward that Big Bang junk theory..... So do I. Part of what some Christians often don't understand about evolution is that it has zero to do with the origin of the universe. It's the study of how life became other life. Implying that the Big Bang...

(Jackie D;42076) this was added after Two gave his response It really shouldn't have been required. I just wanted to make sure no one else misunderstood the thread and posted as Two did.

(arniem;41883) Hi ameraI think evolution is the biggest fairy tale ever told on the face of this earth , bar none. I'm sorry you feel that way. There are many websites run by Christians that muddy the water on evolution rather than attempting to explain it honestly. It violates all the laws of...

(Remagoen;41191) First, I'm saying this through my teeth, but I'm saying this because I love my sister. I know in the short time I've been here, I've established a small reputation for myself, but I'm not seeking to add or subtract from it.I need help for my sister. As an atheist, I don't think...

(Two;42022) 1) "Jesus didn't exist in the manner described in the gospels." False, he did.2) "There is no god." There is a G-d.3) "I do not believe in god." I do believe in G-d.4) "Your argument is flawed due to the use of a fallacy." NEVER5) "There is no evidence to support the idea that...

Very interesting points. I'll have to read through the entire thread before commenting further.
