    It is funny when these debates come up. Most atheists won't answer this post because it is like talking to a wall. With all of the evidence I can see how some would believe in evolution. If all a creationist is using is the bible to prove creationism then they are seriously ignorant. There is, however, a scientist who has a theory that mankind as we know it has been around since the begining and we just grew up alongside other humanoids. He was kicked off of the university speaking circuit by his fellow scientists who basically called it heresy. Which would go back to my science has become a religion idea.
    The fact is...evolution does happen. This cannot be denied no matter how stupid you want to look in front of other people. Do I believe we came from Primates? No. Evolution doesn't just have a missing link they have about 500ft. of chain missing. I guess I'd have to go with the, "We were created by aliens as a genetic experiment." It's more fun ;)

    Dear Lord, please save me from your followers.

    LOL @ Six + Gumby! Hehe!

    Hey Sleepy, it appears you are in an extremely philosophical mood! Go & read some Douglas Adams books, trust me, they help!

    Evolution is not the answer to most of the important questions about life and how it got here.
    That's a pretty bold statement to make. Do you have some scientific research (and the Christian Science Journal doesn't COUNT) to back up this statement of yours?

    The key thing to remember here is, it's a THEORY! It could change at any time, and is always based upon current understanding. Creationism is not a theory, it is an unchanging ABSOLUTE. This is the key difference.

    Wht are not animals bigger and stronger than humans

    advancing, no they follow the food chain becuase they go by instinct

    not the ability to reason, think , formulate athought and act

    on it. The human body, why when we get hurt( sick , cut , broken

    bone ,etc...) does it HEAL it self? What makes the body go aginst

    doing 'the easy thing' or going AGAINST the path of least resistance?

    Bottom line I guess I would ratter have faith in God and be wrong,

    than be an atheist and be wrong! Is it that hard to have faith?


    Yeah, it's really hard to believe in something that has never, ever been captured on any form of camera or other recording device. Hell, there aren't even any formulas predicting the existence of God either.

    So, what is the difference between being an atheist and being wrong, and having "faith" and being wrong? You're still WRONG at the end of the day, eh? LOL

    Remember that Darwin's masterpiece was titled The Origin of Species... not The Origin of Life. Big difference. Think about it.

    OK?

    How was history recorded before TV came?AAAAAAAMMMM,

    I think things were write down and documented. Do you read

    the encyclepedia? Do you question it?

    Even if god was 'captured' on tape or what ever, you would

    probably still not beleive, why, becuase humans are good at

    deflecting seemingly obvious thruth, with questions.Some

    are conspericy therists,dont what to beleive in things

    that are in front of them. Landing on the moon for exsample,

    'cuaght on tape' yet some dont believe it happened, whatever.

    "So what is the difference betwwen being an atheist and being

    wrong, and having faith and being wrong?Your still wrong

    at the end of the day,lol."

    Well, I guess I will try and spell it out for you.

    If you are an athiest and there is a god, you probably

    will not have his favor(read about the anti-christ and his

    future)Your future is in his hands.(I surely would not to be

    dealt with by someone I have denyed existed)

    On the other had,IF You have faith in god and he doesnt exist,

    well, your fate would be the same, no harm either way, same consequence.

    If you want to put in scintific terms-THIS ISNT ROCK SCIENCE!

    hannibal,

    You have just described Pascal's Wager as the reason to believe in a god you have no evidence of. Read up on Pascal's Wager and you will find out why this is flawed, fallacious reasoning.

    Evolution is what we call the process of "change with continuity". While we are familiar with clinical conclusions that there are many "types of consciousness" yet, we have not seen the importance of that fact when it comes to "Evolution". There may be a link between physical immortality and consciousness. Is it mere coincidence that at the speed of light time ceases and in certain meditative states time ceases.

    clash stated:

    : Sorry six but evolution is a selfrefuting speculation.

    So why do you take its supposedly being self-refuting (whatever that means) so seriously if it's only speculation?

    Poor old clash - it still doesn't understand the difference between Newton's laws of motion and gravity.

    Is ignorance a prerequiste for, or a perquisite of, being a fundie?

    ROFL, sure, Hannibal, I'll watch my ass for your tribal God. Hehe. Go and read your Bible properly, THEN come back & talk with us about the origins of life. If you're gonna argue a point, at least be informed...

    Nope, we're most certainly not talking about geology here. Archeology, perhaps...!
