Is that the number of mile light travels in a year?

"The odds of evolution being random are tiny."

Tiny times several billion tries comes up a real number.

God works in mysterious ways.

Uhuh. You're not really much different from....

Here is our progressive,

The resulting cultural psychosis, where youth have been castrated of Truth, Logic, Reason, and Science - is pretty much the same:

psy·cho·sis
sīˈkōsəs/
noun
  1. a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.


"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare.
 
What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.
 
It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.
 
The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation.
 
Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.
 
Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion.  Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science.  Members of parliament, representatives of business circles.    "

No small wonder youth today can't even figure out what sex they are.   Nice job DungMaster!

How do you differentiate your Created “6000 Year” Dogma from the other Created Things that were worshiped in Romans Chapter 1?

You can’t. They are the same.

don’t feed the troll- He’s proven many times now he’s here just to berate anyone that doesn’t buy into the lie of evolution- makes him feel better about himself i guess to constantly insult those he’s attacking- sadly it seems to be a need he thrives on- several of us have given him ample opportunity to be civil- He chooses however to act in a childish manner-

>>berate anyone that doesn’t buy into the lie of evolution-

It’s not about evolution super genius - it’s about your disingenuous attempt to hijack the vocabulary involved like a NewSpeaking Cultural Marxist.

That’s why your ilk has increasingly lost credibility on both the Right and Left.

Strictly defined, there's no "belief" in science, no "faith", not even "truth".

Define all you want; but the PRACTICE on the ground is much different.

It possibly could be; but I know for a FACT that it is the EXACT number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin.

It's also found in the bible; with careful study of course!

13.5 billion. One gets added every year. Kinda like birthday candles.

>>I merely posit that Earth is God’s reaction chamber.

The process of photosynthesis complexifys, yet the 2ND law is not violated; and there is a net increase in entropy.

Where is entropy increased in the context of the E that drives photosynthesis on Earth?

The answer can be derived from observed physical processes.

>>You’re finally seeing that?

How well do you think your Newskpeaking YED cleverness would stand up in court as a defense against LGBTQXYWHATEVER activist social engineers who are on a cultural trajectory towards banning biology?

I’ll answer that for you, Bob - you’d get laughed out of court just like your predecessors who lost the Scopes monkey trial.

Furthermore, YED dogma is not primary doctrine for discerning membership in the body of Christ - and YOU are not the decider in that case either, little man.

Heartlander quoting Darwin: "Would any one trust in the convictions of a monkey's mind, if there are any convictions in such a mind? - Darwin"

Here we see Darwin speculating on potential consequences of his new theory.
His speculations are somewhat interesting, but utterly irrelevant.

You disagree?

Bob434: " Not when describing an omnipotent God- God’s intelligent design far surpasses man’s... "

Your term "intelligent design" could mean just about anything, including space aliens from the planet Kusbane.
I think words that unmistakably apply only to God would have a much different character, though am not myself satisfied as to what those words should be...

"Intelligent design" is way too mundane for the Creator of the Universe, imho.

You disagree?

HLPhat: " Because it’s important for you, and others, to be able to discern the truth with your own eyes and free mind - "

You're being way too clever for me.
I don't have time or patience for riddles.
So make your point, or forget it.

HLPhat: "The universe in which light from celestial bodies 13.5 billion light years away is visible, today, here on Earth - 13.5 billion years later. "

And that is only one, albeit a particularly glaring example, of a huge number of scientific problems with "young earth".
So the basic issue is, can we treat both science and the Bible with all due respect and without doing harm to either?
I think we can, but it takes some careful analysis & understanding.

>>So make your point, or forget it.

The point is you don’t understand entropy and how the 2nd law of thermodynamics isn’t broken by the “complexifying” of everyday photosynthesis.

It’s not a riddle - it’s a simple concept that any science student should be able to articulate.

[[Your term “intelligent design” could mean just about anything,]]

Not when referring to the creator it doesn’t mean just about anything- it means exactly what it means- God’s omniscient intelligence- which far surpasses ours- there’s really no need to make an issue out of the term- when one speaks of God’s intelligent design, we all understand that His omniscient intelligence is far superior to ours- it knows all- we know only in part- it does no disservice to God to claim He is the end all be all of intelligent Designers- not sure why this is even an issue?

Number one it’s not really a problem IF you study the issue- there are answers to it- secondly, you discount the actual im;possibilities associated with macroevolution (ie: chemical impossibilities, biological, thermodynamic, mathematical- any one of which puts a nail in the coffin for hte idea of macroevolution possibility- but taken all together- ensure that it’s not even remotely possible- yet you claim that the light year issue undoes young earth when there are answers to it? Study it some- you’ll find what you are looking for IF you look objectively-
