Well, even Darwinism predicts that Darwinism is doomed. People who believe in creation are against abortion in far higher numbers than people who believe in evolution. Therefore, creationists' children are not aborted, while Darwinist babies get killed. Even a 1% lower birth rate mathmatically dooms a pool of genes over many generations... Therefore, if Darwinism is true it predicts that it's own adherents will be squeezed out of the gene pool eventually.

If "Darwinism" was biologically inherited that might be the case. It is not. It is a scientific field.

Nice try though.

I'm not mincing words, and I don't understand your point.

BTW, the question of where the "center of the universe" might be remains open. After all, you don't know where the center is if you don't know how it's shaped.

As a practical matter you can imagine that you are at the center and move out from there. The mathematics involved supports that and numerous other conjectures.

I'm still waiting to see if they've finally disproven that it's actually shaped like a dodecahedron.

... help me here...

You see evolution as compatible with Christianity, but not if you believe what the Bible says?

I've always thought that the Bible was the basis of Christianity.

Is there another basis I missed in my thought process?

thanks,
ampu

First, tell me what the Bible says.

The truth is Darwinism is not a scientific theory, but a materialistic creation myth masquerading as science. It is first and foremost a weapon against religion – especially traditional Christianity. Evidence is brought in afterwards, as window dressing.

And there you have it. Darwin was not a scientist, but an atheist bent on the destruction of all religion masquerading as a scientist.

How did you ever acheive such gymnastics of illogical thought? So you are saying that there is a gene responsible for scientific rationality and that it will be selected out by abortion? SO you do believe in evolution. But you clearly have no idea what genetic science means.

A creationist goons very rarely hold "a Ph.D. in biology from the University of California at Berkeley and a Ph.D. in theology from Yale University".

In 1976, Jonathan Wells a student in Moon's seminary, answered his leader's call. Wells writes,

Father's [Moon's] words, my studies, and my prayers convinced me that I should devote my life to destroying Darwinism, just as many of my fellow Unificationists had already devoted their lives to destroying Marxism. When Father chose me to enter a PhD program in 1978, I welcomed the opportunity to prepare myself for battle. Source.

Real simple ~ if you believe what the Bible says, and you understand the use of "critical analysis" so you can correlate the Bible with archaeology, you quickly determine that the Bible was not handed down directly from God in Heaven to Man on Earth.

99.99999% of it was prepared after a suitible period of thought and analysis by men who sought God.

If you want a hard and fast rule book handed down directly by God to Man, then you ought to spend your time with the Koran and not the Bible.

No, the truth is that the theory of evolution and the principle of the 'survival of the fittest' has been hijacked by atheists bent on domination (Stalin, Hitler).

The theory of evolution, based on scientific observation and logical analysis, is RELIGION-NEUTRAL.

And its also the truth that the "Young-Earth Evos" (evangelicals) are tilting at a windmill instead of focusing their efforts on the real enemy....

My point is that you disagreed with him and then said the same thing in different words, with a little OP-ed at the beginning and end.

"Traditional Christianity" is/was the Catholic Church. I thought Protestantism was developed to destroy that particular entity, and long before Darwin's time too!(/sarcasm)
