  At the core of evolutionists and atheists is the hatred of irreligiousness and irrationality of religions. - Venus

  Well that's nonsense. The vast majority of theists accept the fact of biological evolution with no problem.

  You can have evolution with or without god.

  Typical example is modern day atheism High Priest Richard Dwakin's God Delusion. Book speaks more on religious irrationality than the process of evolution.

  Dawkins has written many books on biological evolution that say nothing at all about religion. I can think of 6 or 7 titles off the top of my head. His book "The god Delusion" speaks more about religion than it does about evolution because it is about religion and not about evolution.

  You will find that most atheists are not huge fans of Dawkins anti-god rants. He is nobodies "High Priest".

  even though theory cannot explain too great things such as origin of universe, origin of life, origin of consciousness

  That is like complaining that your umbrella can't predict when it is going to rain.

  Once again we see another member of your BK cult team posting on your account. One minute you have perfect English and the next it is back to broken English. Nobody is interested in your stupid cult.

  Calling Cofty and others regarding evolution

  by dubstepped in

  so i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.

  i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.

  i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.

  I was just trying to direct attention to a related truth. - Venus

  Except your comments could not be less related to the topic.

  Theory of evolution came as an act of frustration because excesses of religions were too intolerable at that time.

  No it didn't. Biological evolution was posited by religious men long before Darwin. His genius was to discover the mechanism of natural selection.

  To attack the very basis of religions something had to be invented which resulted in The Theory of Evolution.

  Evolution has absolutely nothing at all to do with any attack on religion.

  In other words, irreligiousness of all religions was the CAUSE, and expression of atheism through theory of evolution was the EFFECT.

  Evolution does not equate with atheism. The vast majority of intelligent theists accept the fact of evolution.

  It means Cause and Effect principle is at work behind everything.

  Please go away with your BK bullshit.

  Hello Issa.

  After I left the cult I went on believing in god and in the inspiration of the bible. I was an evangelical christian for about a decade. I lost faith in faith in 2014 and have been pursuing an evidence-based view of life ever since then. I am an atheist.

  Ring species are an interesting example of speciation. I have not yet done a thread on this in my series. There is some misinformation about subject that creationists like you exploit. It is a great challenge to ask creationists where one species stops and a new one begins. Thanks for the OP.

  Venus that is perhaps the most egregious example of hijacking a thread I have seen in a while.

  I've made my mind up.

  This cult of paranoia is not laughable after all. It is hateful and despicable.

  Wow!

  Speechless. No words. It hurts. Brain cells dying. Pity of derision?

  Just noticed the Jew-hating holocaust denying filth that is also part of this despicable worldview.

  Kairos - Have you had the methodology and results of your hundreds of experiments checked by a qualified astronomer?

  Yes or no? If not why not?
