"I find it interesting that creationists are not willing to accept abiogenesis (which would follow known physical laws)"

Abiogenesis is a pipe dream that follows nothing but imagination.

"but are willing to not only accept, but base their living philosophy on, magic"

An opinion based in ignorance. Biblical assertions have the strong proof behind them of fulfilled prophecy, and the statistical science that is documented in "The Bible Code Bombshell." The fact that you are too pig-headed to even read that powerful scientific evidence limits the value of your opinion severely.

Paranoia is never having to provide evidence.

BUT God isn't.

Not true. He evidently couldn't forgive mankind without killing His own son. It's apparent even God must obey some sort of outside "law."

I'm just asking for someone to prove Evolution exists. Sheesh. Is that so difficult?



It seems to be difficult for those (animals) that hang onto that word to validate their existence. Lots of talk about nothing. They are just monkeying around with a word.

Instead of cracking a textbook, open up the Bible.

That's right! We don't need no pointy-headed larnin', no sirree! Everything we ever needs to know is right there in the Bible!

Luckily, those Bible readers saved us from the preferred candidates of the secularists:

Yeah Dimensio! Quit posting facts and exposing Creationist' lies and logical fallacies by throwing their words in their face.



Now that's funny!

God's a liar? or is Dimensio and his thinking? Your choice.

I believe that at least your higher order of animals that live in packs have a rudimentary law, or morality, of their own -- basically there are rules you live by in the pack, and if you break them, exile city, dude.

Of course, that's just my WAG.

I said nothing about any deities. My claim of "liar" was directed specifically at nmh, and it is documented with references to nmh's own dishonest statements.

[Biblical shape of the Earth]

Job 26:7
He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing

this is Job speaking. in Ch. 38:4-6, the Lord responds, and says

4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

IE Job says the Earth hangs upon nothing, and the Lord corrects him and says it has a foundation and a corner stone.

BOOKMARK

I think assigning only the barest minimum of intelligence to different species is not necessarily the best thing.

Not all Bible readers are know-nothing bohunks who don't accept evolution. If you noticed, the post to which I responded recommended ignoring text books for what was in the Bible. I'm sure a great many Christians on this forum would consider it the height of stupidity to ignore scientific teaching and replace it with exerpts from the Bible.

"Do you disagree that we have the vestiges of gills and a tail in our genetic build? Where did that come from?"

From the imagination of evolutionists and public education

Honestly, I can't believe this nonsense is still being bantered about.

We all need education. It would certainly benefit YOU to get the 'basics' first; otherwise, you will be deceived and you already proved that.

Also, DON"T mock God because you will be the looser. Test Him!
