Ping!
Thanks for the ping!
How is Texas going to purge these people after the “divorce”?
LOLOL!
Also, see what the Temple of Darwin is doing to ICR in Texas:

Seriously, removing the gov’t benes and welfare isn’t going to affect some of them.
I guess we’ll just have to remove any means of power from them - that’ll do it.
LOL!
Let me guess, there's also a Texas Gravity Lobby?
There’s a global warming lobby, a fetus isn’t human lobby, and a homosexuality is genetic lobby.
All are theories.
> Let me guess, there’s also a Texas Gravity Lobby?
Unlike the effects of gravity, which can be empirically observed, evolution relies on drawings and conjectures about what may have, could have, might have, probably have, happened.
Everybody has watched an object fall to the ground.
Nobody has seen a shrew turn into a bat.
To try to convince by debate is one thing, but to get pushy with Texans is well .... not very smart.
Remember Goliad, the Alamo and San Jacinto!
My home state is doing so well in these bad times. It would be a shame if this was clouded by pseudoscientists trying to teach kids biblical literalism in science class.
==Let me guess, there’s also a Texas Gravity Lobby?
Yes. It was originally started by Sir Isaac Newton way back in 18th century England. He was of course a biblical creationist.
And yet it was only Newton’s scientific theories that posited natural causes for natural phenomena that accomplished anything.
As a theologian Newton was a heretic.
As an alchemist Newton was a quack.
It was only where he found MATERIAL causes to explain MATERIAL phenomena that he made any progress in science.
Pretty obvious which side of this thing has stuff to hide, isn’t it?
> Where as the theory of creationism depends on ?
Who said anything about creationism?
We were talking about evolutionism.
In any event, they are both theories employed to explain the same evidence based on different world views.
However, given the endless frauds in evolutionism, e.g. Haekel, Nebraska Man, Piltdown Man, Java Man, Ntional Geographic’s “Dino Bird”, etc, and the fact that no explanation exists for organs that would be “vestigial” until wholly functioning, e.g. the eye, I would say that Intelligent Design is the more intelligent explanation.
However, if you want to believe...
* Everything came from nowhere out of nothing for no apparent reason.
* Life is just a curious side effect of an unknowing, uncaring cosmos.
* A man is a dog is a bear is a pig.
* When you die you are just so much compost.
* Ergo, the best you can hope for is a life of self-gratification and a painless extinction.
... I certainly won’t try to stop you.
Just don’t expect me to gladly furnish moneys by the threat of lethal force to propagate your silly, even dangerous, notions.
