C-Span might be XXX rated on Alpha Centauri, for all we know.

Hot, uncensored bicameral action!

Cheers!

And what if God is really an omnipotent alien being like Q from Star Trek?

Guess what!?

HE is!!!!


NIV Isaiah 55:8-9
8. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD.
9. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

IDers merely make their claims without ever receiving the complex signal.

Not so - they merely looked closer than way out in space!


Romans 1:20

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

If it involves tentacles it will be immensely popular in Japan.

But there may be a disclaimer saying: Paid for by Friends of the FSM

Both theories stand on solid footing.

Oh?

To me, it seems that ONE connects an AWFUL lot of distantly spaced dots!

"Ludicris" is one of those words that reveals more about you than you could ever know.

Translation:

I can tell more about you if you just come into my office for some REAL sessions....

In some cases, the girls are fully nude but it is probably not legal in the US especially when alcohol is served.

Haven't astronomers detected ALCOHOL molecules in outer space??

...over many different unrelated lines of inquiry that happen to give the same results. In the field of genetics, the 'dots' are not so distantly spaced.

You're free to believe whatever you want (and I've said before, I have no problem with people not believing in evolution) - but you won't have much luck arguing against the science behind the theory -it's just too solidly grounded.

Either evolution occurred, or God created the world with the appearance of evolution, there's no way out of it. Which ever one of those is really true, evolution is still a useful theory in describing the data we find and predicting future data finds, and no discovery has yet falsified its usefulness.
