Re: Human evolution and dna

I wish I had as much faith as those who believe science, which is simply a very efficient tool for analyzing nature, proves "time + natural selection + random mutation" can result in the myriad of life forms that the fossil record indicates have existed.

Re: Big list of evolution evidences I can't refute

Another thing I need to add to the list is the transitional fossils. If you all are not familiar with them go here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitional_fossil The only thing that makes these fossils transitional is wishful thinking. There is no genetic material in fossils, so there is no way t...

Re: Big list of evolution evidences I can't refute

I don't know. I think Vickers is telling the truth. I mean, we all go through doubts many times. I'm sure just about everyone here has doubted God's existence of have doubted their salvation from time to time. The guy is just doubting his creation views right now, he'll get over it. There's a diffe...

Re: Big list of evolution evidences I can't refute

Well what kind of books do you all read then? And can you refute them? I saw someone trying to refute Dawkins God Delusion book somewhere on this site and he was only able to respond to three measly chapters. I don't know I'm under the inkling that you all do not read pro evolution material and avo...

Re: Big list of evolution evidences I can't refute

The fact that humans have one fewer chromosome than apes How does this prove evolution? If ID were correct, what would stop God from using similar DNA? You suggest that he must use different DNA each and every time? I dunno It looks as though we came from them, if it wasn't so would there be even M...

Re: Will Creationists Admit They Are Wrong and Apologise?

Welcome to the site notasheep. When you say mythical which definition of "myth" are you considering? Every definition I have found indicates a story that is fictitious, at best an innocent attempt to explain something otherwise not explainable by the one relating the story, at worst an act...

Re: Learn more about evolution

I find the articles at http://www.scienceagainstevolution.org/new.htm to be well-written and they do a great job of keeping away from making their arguments against the theory of evolution become arguments for creation.

Re: There is no science...

Hi, I'm not atheist but I can think of scientific achievements that may either prove/disprove God or at least provide compelling evidence in either direction: Some of these may not be as compelling as they may appear at first. 1. Time travel to the past, or ability see the past. This is the killer ...

Echoside, Basic, and your military experience will be a great test of your physical, mental, and spiritual endurance. I tell my son that there is not enough money in the world to make me go through it again, but I am glad I did it. I was a Quartermaster Officer in the US Army in the early 90's. Isai...

Re: OEC and redemptive history

joejmz, that might be true if we were limited in our methodologies to just those two and if the differentiation in time spans affected were of great enough scope to bring YEC into play. However there's multiple disciplines and methodologies at work of which the proponderance of the physical evidenc...

Re: OEC and redemptive history

Definitely and interesting conversation. However, I think we need to analyze the assumptions being made. For example, how sure are we of the processes being used to date the appearance of humanity? A few months ago we found out that radiometric dating may not be as reliable as thought since some unk...

Re: Does God exist?

I actually didn't think CopaceticMan was going to leave that quickly, but with the tone and the discussion going the way it was, I didn't think he'd last too much longer either. I read over all the posts, and just generally don't know what some of the problem was. I feel some of us might have come ...

Re: Does God exist?

the vast amounts of archaeological evidence that point to Christianity being true CopaceticMan wrote: I tried posting a similar question, but the way I phrased it got rejected. So here it is in the way I meant it. Yes I am an atheist, and I don't believe (I don't claim as some would put it). I am o...
