  How is creationism DISPROVED?

  it is disproven.

  but let's start another thread, because this one is being yanked off track again.

  creationism/evolution always deserves its own thread.

  If this "Dr Who" entity actually exists we might first conclude that He is evil. We shouldn't merely stop at this and call it a day. If God IS evil and we have superior morals then we should be waging war with God. However during that war we might understand that first off: it's not possible to destroy God and second: that God is actually good and works in our ultimate interests. This type of thinking can sometimes put atheists into cognitive dissonance because they have filled their minds with anti-God propaganda and also preach it creating the possibility for shame. Now they have to machette through those if they ever come across actual evidence pointing to a God of Righteousness.

  My brain has turned to mush. If your arguments have ever convinced anyone, please feel free to post their testimonies. You win on account of default. I do not wish to entertain this discussion any longer.

  It was not an ad hominem.

  I will repeat again, "where did you find in my responses 'religious fervor'?"

  For some reason you believe that an evil God is not intelligent.

  Ok, so you believe in an evil god now? What good does its intelligence do to us, then? It is of no benefit to us, our end is the same...

  I don't deny that I am motivated by religious fervor, you do.

  Here's a thought. Let's stay away from the ad-hominems, as I have from the beginning. Where did you find in my responses 'religious fervor'?

  If you think so you are having faith and you have to call your actions motivated by religious fervor, not Science.

  Sigh... even working within your framework, a creator that needs to use time travel because his own design will end, is not an intelligent being.

  BTW, your musings are not science, they are just that, musings. When you are ready to bring science to the table, and when I am ready to relinquish the concrete for the mythological, then you can attack me for being motivated by 'religious fervor'.

  OK, now we have to add another characteristic to our Monotheistic entity:

  You're cheating, Sab. OP has been disproven. You can keep adding ad-hoc solutions, but face it, even with time travel, a creator that makes something broken is not intelligent. Sorry.

  Based on your definition of creationism: The universe was created by an intelligent being.

  I will gladly disprove it.

  The Universe will eventually come to an end. Life on earth will eventually come to an end. Laboriously creating something that cannot be self-sustained and will end is not the mark of an intelligent being.

  QED.

  WTWizard, do you truly believe Lucifer exists? (what else do you want me to call him... oh, your savior).

  Seriously though, I'd be interested in hearing if you have had any 'experiences', the same goes for you, Good JW. If you don't want to mention them in public, feel free to PM me.

  BTW, WTWizard, you never really answered why you choose to be a Satanist. What is it that appeals to you?

  Hey, Wizard. I've always seen many of your posts, but I've never actually spoken directly to you. I've noticed your a Satanist. My question is, are you a Deistic Satanist, or LaVeyan? If you are Deistic, do you believe you communicate with Satan himself? Why are you Satanist? What exactly do you gain from being one? I'm really curious why someone would cross to the 'dark side' of the force... LOL. Thanks in advance.

  P.S. do you think other forms of the occult match up with Satanism? My friend has had experiences with Santeria (white magic) and has also had experiences with Palo Mayombe (black magic).

  Christ's 'silence' on slavery.

  by tec in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the accusations against christ that some people make to me from time to time is that christ never spoke out against slavery, and so he must condone it.. i would submit that slavery (the forcible enslaving of your fellow man)... is not the root problem.

  it is merely a symptom of the root problem.

  christ came to deal with the root.

  How about this text? Is Paul in favor of slavery by returning the slave, Onesimus? Or would the slave now be getting much better treatment?

  Philemon 1:11-20

  11 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.

  12 I am sending him—who is my very heart—back to you. 13 I would have liked to keep him with me so that he could take your place in helping me while I am in chains for the gospel. 14 But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do would not seem forced but would be voluntary. 15 Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever— 16 no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a dear brother. He is very dear to me but even dearer to you, both as a fellow man and as a brother in the Lord.

  17 So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would welcome me. 18 If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything, charge it to me. 19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand. I will pay it back—not to mention that you owe me your very self. 20 I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.

  By theologies? The 'evidence' is the geneaology record from Jesus to Adam. It's in Matthew 1 and Luke 3.
