Evidence for God from Science

alot of action since I was last here! GMan: the pictures and episode you post is exactly what I saw on that episode (you probably saw the same one). I don't see how people could look at the actual evidence on the Earth today and not see the sense behind it. The local flood explanation makes so much ...

But to take this and extend it to generating a new species is absurd. The populations of host and the time required (even at 15 billion years) is not available. The mechanism fails to produce anything in the allotted time frame. You don't need that much time to generate a new species. I'm talking i...

How do you know that the event happened 70 million yrs ago. The geographic column is a non starter since it's just based on circluar reasoning, fossils date the rocks the rocks date the fossils. The so called column can be interpreated differently as the effects of a global flood therefore layers w...

Sorry to annoy you, I was simply asking where you found the info. :? Which kind of gets to my point. Most of the time when I'm in a debate on this the "Global Flood Advocate" will mention these things that are either false or dubious at best. People who don't know any better will be like &...

wow, I didn't pick up on what you were getting at Pardon the newbie! haha

Yes, I feel that this scenario allows God into the equation and does not interfere with natural evolution. Let's face it, I think the whole origin of life is a very sore subject for evolutionary theory and allowing God to be the architect of life on Earth would erase those objections to evolution. I...

you you have a reference or picture or link to that penguin fossil? I'd be interested in seeing that because I've never heard of any creature being buried in mud/water and the soft tissue being preserved (only ice does this). Also, unless these suddenly buried animals were all from the same era, the...

I am not well versed in Bible studies but can you eloborate on this "dryness" thing. Obviously after any flooding event the water dries up, but I don't think this is what you are getting at. Do you mean that there was a global desert following the Flood? Or that all the water on the planet...

oh, and the penguin thing. There is a penguin living in the Galapagos Islands today and that is right on the equator. Animals can evolve to live in any habitat and they did just that in the Antarctic.

well, each story is similar but differs in many respects. The people involved, the animals involved, the God involved, and the whole process is often different. If the stories were all based on one event, then wouldn't they all be the same? You can say that the stories were written from oral traditi...

I didn't mean the "minefield" comment as an insult to conservatives on the site but I have Baptist relatives and they are as staunchly Yound Earth and Creationist as they come. I meant that I hope people are more open to discussion then they are! I believe there is a compromise between God...

Also, how did the sexes evolve? A male is useless without a female (and vice versa). So wouldn't both have had to evolve at the same time? AND Find each other? AND know what to do with their new...parts? This is just a hypothetical scenario so don't ask for a source! the first organims were most li...

I wouldn't consider biogenesis "evolution", more like a "creation"... yes there is biology involved but also chemistry. Once you have your first cell, then you can consider evolution because it is able to reproduce. However, the whole series of reactions prior to this "life&...

I am new here and I was impressed by the article posted on page one. I am really perplexed how an open-minded Christian can look at that essay and not wonder if the story was just a rough re-telling of a local (yet catastropic) event. I believe in the local flood theory. The timeline and interpretat...

Hey everybody, I came across this site and it seems like a good place for intelligent discussions on God and science. I was born Catholic but have not been a regular Churchgoer for some years. Despite this, I am a believer in God and I consider myself a moral person that does his best to follow God'...
