Hey Pope! I like that. Just set it up and let it run. I email with some theistic evolutionists. Bishop John Shelby Spong, a man I admire a lot for making so many complicated Biblical questions understandable for everyday joes, is a theistic evolutionist. G

Evolution still bugs me
by Geronimo ini know there are a lot of threads on evolution and creation and i've read a few here and there.
how can complex systems arise of themselves in the face of entropy?
one evolutionist book i read used snowflakes to show this is possible.

Hi Satanaus. I don't have any preset conclusions yet. But the answer is a standard one in all the ID stuff I've read. I haven't read any shattering rebuttals. For the sake of argument, if theres a Creator, then it's fairly reasonable that similar parts for similar functions would be found among various living things. Monkeys have cool little hands they use to throw their poop at you. I have hands too. We have similar "hand" DNA. Does that mean we have a common ancestor or that because we have common structures we have similar DNA sequences? I dunno yet. Maybe it's still a matter of opinion or belief. I ordered two pro evolution books so that might help a lot. I hope. G

Hey AuldSoul. Why? Are they half hape or something? I'm teasing. I'm just curious as to why. I'l bet if I do a Google search on them I'll get a buttload of material to wade through, so maybe you could narrow the search parameters down. Thanks. G

Hey Jstalin! Okay, that sounds really good, but thats not a smoking gun. Was there a piece of the origins puzzle that made you have a eurkea moment? If so let me know. Thanks. I've read reviews of ID books that point out there aren't any creationist researchers, just creationist "pundits." G

Hey Kazar. I'm sorry dude. That sounds really awful. I'm not torn up by the problem, so you have my empathy. My current status is as a very liberal (religiously and socially) protestant, bvut that could change to agnostic or atheist depending on where the best evidence and arguments are. I'm glad you're able to put this stuff out of your head so it doesn't make you nuts. All the best to you Kazar. G

Hey MJ. man, these responses are very cool for the most part! I'm a modern dude and I lean toward evolution. It might be because I was raised to accept it. If thats all it is then I dont want any part of it. If it is factual, I don't want any part of any God baloney. So, I'm giving this a serious lookover. Yes, a good pal sent me an online program that evolves words from gumbled letters. Here: http://www.jhuger.com/evolve I read a few years ago about a specie of wild dog that had been cut off from the rest of Dogdom for so long that, even though its still a dog, it can't breed with other dogs anymore. The article (National Pornogrpahic I think) said this was probably a first step in evolving into a seperate specie entirely. G

Elsewhere, I totally respect your ideas. I really dig astronomy and bought a very cool telescope that I use a lot on good nights. Prop, creedal statements aren't scientific. I'm hoping for some butt-kicking info. G

Hey nutter. I've only been lurking here a short time and registered finally a couple days ago. Why would you act like you know me? I have zero idea who you are or anyting about you except you're funny and clever. So cut me some slack, please. I'm not a Bible believer. I still think the Bible has some good features, and that God probably exists in an impersonal way, but I don't believe in prophecy any more than I believe in unicorns. So, calm down. I'm not your enemy. If I misunderstood the spirit of your last response to me, I apologize. G

Hey Kudra. I've checked out that site a few times and read quite a bit. You can get lost there. It's a good site though. G
