If atheism is true aren't children simply a soulless bag of atoms?
The result of random copying mistakes filtered by purposeless differential survival?

Damaging Children With the Christian Gospel
by cofty inthe christian gospel begins with the dehumanising assertion that all humans are fallen sinners who deserve nothing but god's judgement and wrath.. not only does this taint all relationships between christians and unbelievers, it destroys the beautiful innocence of childhood.
in a recent edition of the popular christian radio program "family life today", titled “introducing your child to god,” co-host bob lepine discussed teaching “practical theology” to his young daughter, explaining:.
when my daughter, amy, was still less than two years old, i started teaching practical theology to her.

Evolution is a Fact #12 - Lenski's E. coli Experiment
by cofty inevolution works by the non-random selection of random mutation.
natural selection accumulates favourable random chance events.. the experiment that was began on 24th february 1988 on e coli bacteria by dr richard e. lenski and his team is surely one of the clearest demonstrations of the power of this process.. e.coli is one of the commonest bacterium on earth, there is around 100 billion, billion of them in the world at any given time and around 1 billion of them in your gut right now.
most of the time they cause no problem, until a new strain wreaks havoc on its host's digestive system.. if we assume the probability of a particular gene mutating to be 1 in a billion, the size of the population is so high that just about every gene in the e.coli genome will have mutated somewhere in the world every day.

Anyone can read the short posted article and its references. If you still think that the O.P. provides proof that the evolutionists claimed version of history is true over creation than that's fine.
Evolutionits claim to be purely evidence based, yet any information presented questioning evolutionary claims is immediately dismissed (Here as coming from "bullshit" -see also coftys response to links on his "10 questions for creationists" thread where the creation research society was dismissed as a "bullshit" website as well.
And evolutionists think it as some sort of great evidence when no one wants to take their TIME to dialogue with them.

Some of this might be due to what would more accurately be described as "devolution" rather than supporting unequivocally the evolutionists claimed version of history over creation.

Beliefs About What Caused the Universe
by Perry inthe universe can be observed to be expanding.. an expanding universe must have had a beginning.
whatever begins to exist had a cause.
therefore the universe had a cause.

From the O.P."Whatever begins to exist had a cause."
ONLY if Perry advocated a creator that began to exist (i.e. not eternal) would he be inconsistent-which he is not doing.

Perry: every argument you make for something needing a beginning is a contradiction and an argument against your own belief in a super being with no beginning.
So carry on, tell us more about the god that can't exist based on your own logic.
Actually I think he is referring to the fact that everything that HAS A BEGINNING has a cause.There is nothing in that argument that is referring to subjects which have no beginning.
So there is nothing that requires the argument to also apply to an eternal God.

Quit being consistent with observation and the laws of Thermodynamics Perry and just accept "science"!

Evolution is a Fact #31 - Ten Questions for Creationists
by cofty ini thought this would be a good time to pose some questions based on the series so far.. if creationism is true these should be easy.
answers that don't involve copy-paste would be really interesting to read.. ... .
1. since some proteins can be assembled in more ways than there are atoms in the universe why do the sequences of amino acids and bases vary between species in exactly the way evolution predicts?

"you think posting a link to a creationist bullshit website"
Actually I posted links to two websites.
Which of course evolutionists will attack.
As they always do anyone who remotely question their version of 'history'
