You are missing the point. Let me make this simple... A Chinese adult who rational, reasonable & possessing common sense who has never heard of Mt Rushmore, when seeing it would conclude that a skilled sculptor carved the faces on mount rushmore. He would not automatically assume that the faces appeared on the mountain by chance and proceed to demand evidence that an artist sculpted it.Quote:

Intelligent design by a supernatural intelligent being is simple and pure common sense. The same commons sense that tells you the faces on MT rushmore did not just appear on that mountain by chance. :)Quote:

Yes. But the Bible is not updated every year. And your pastors don't continue their education to stay current with the new education. And the video's of people being healed are people healing them and "claiming" it's the power of God. You don't actually "see" God do anything.Quote:

All I am trying to point out is this... religion is based on books that are thousands of years old. And there isn't anything new aged being done to give proof of the things that happened all those years ago.
But there is scientific studies going on EVERY day that is finding new evidence of this or that which supports evolution and/or things similar to evolution.
Religion is based on a book that was written by men. The same men that lie, steal, kill, rape , etc... And the book or books are years old. They have been re-written and re-written but never added to. The book you read today is the same book they read 200 years ago. Scientific studies are being updated every hour.
Either way you go. DOES IT REALLY FREAKIN MATTER??
If you don't like what credo or other's have to say. Ignore him. Don't argue with him. You trying to convince him that he is wrong is the same as him trying to convince you that you are wrong. If you are going to continue arguing with him, then you enjoy the debate and just admit that neither one of you REALLY KNOW how we freakin got here. You believe God made us he feels that we came from something else. Credo has already said that he doesn't fully back evolution but that some of the facts behind it are really strong. You on the other hand refuse to admit that you don't know how we got here, you just believe God made us and that you refuse to admit that you really don't have any proof of God you just believe he's real because you freakin want to. It's really that simple.
SO you decide and have fun :p
No. I neither believe in the Big Bang, nor in a Big Bang that made "us".Quote:

Why you suggest that cr*p I do not know, but it shows perfectly the retarded basis of your wild claims.
:D ;) :p :rolleyes: :D
·
The only reason why I tell credo to provide factual evidence because he is always making it seem like his beliefs are some how more true that ours yet he fails to provide evidence to qualify his empty claims. He will never admit that he has BELIEFS and so he thinks he is better than everyone. :rolleyes:Quote:

Are you scratching your head? In evolution things go from simple to complex, right?
How did "beneficial" mutations and 4 billion years naturally select for a SINGLE CELL organism with this much complexity.
This is the objective evidence that so many want to see.
Which fits better, DESIGN or evolution?
IF no one knows the truth, how can you know that what you are seeing is truly real?
This and other "Matrix" questions for you. How come all the God deniers say all people really need to live by is the "golden rule?" How is that any more true than "to the victor belongs the spoils."
If you state that religion is based on a book written by fallible man, can you not say the same thing is true of "science?" How do these researchers avoid conflict of intrests with those that fund their research?

Precisely my point : nobody knows ! Therefore I guide myself by logic, ratio, and objective supporting evidence.Quote:

Because I know there never can be full factual support for something that happened so long ago. But there is a considerable amount of support with cross matching confirming evidence for both theories. That in sharp contrast with religious wild claims on never-proved-to-exist deities.
Those who fiercely oppose science and it's findings, thereby demanding evidence for scientific conclusions and theories, have no problems in suggesting religious wild claims to be factual without any supporting evidence at all!!
Besides that : increasingly their intolerance, hypocrite dishonesty, and paranoia based aggression is dazzlingly shining through...

At Ten, Dark Energy "Most Profound Problem" in Physics

One possibility is there is no dark energy, and gravity works differently than scientists think.. .
The trick is that no one has been able to unify the math used in quantum mechanics, which describes the physics of the very small, with the equations in general relativity, which deal with large-scale interactions.
A single celled organism with as much complexity as us?
Do you even dare to go there with "the evidence for evolution" argument? ;)
or you just smarter than pHD physicists, geneticist, microbiologist, evolutionary biologists that have no solid proof of evolution - only more design wonders.
Did I anywhere on this board make any reference to my opinion on "dark energy"??Quote:

Being an excellent debator means that you have a good grasp of logic. So, I guess Credendovidis gets the spoils this round.
Your presented self is bracketed by your words. Words are symbols for meaning, not meaning itself. The Bible is a symbol too. Debating is different than argument. But those are both merely words.

I point / link to the scientific observed proof for DESIGN by a creator. A subject you seem unwilling or unable to converse in.
Why ? What has that to do with your request to post my opinion on "dark energy"??Quote:

You are totally biased and can't accept my logical approach.
There is no scientific observed proof for design by a creator. You BELIEVE there is.Quote:

Show me any link to WHERE that "scientific observed proof for design by a creator" can be found on the Internet. Or in which SCIENTIFIC book that "proof" can be found. It simply does not exist !
Note : I refer here to SCIENTIFIC support and not to pseudo-scientific babble, like that on sites as A-in-G , the ICR, or "You Tube").
I do not deny anyone the right to BELIEVE in deities. No problem with that at all. But as a non-believer I fail to see the logic in basically debating the existence of an entity that in essence by it's own description can not be proved to exist in a logical and factual way, but only can be BELIEVED in.Quote:

You are RIGHT you are not better than everyone else. That is the most rational statement you have made on this site!Quote:
NO I AM NOT BETTER THAN EVERYONE.
You have Beliefs that are not factual like everyone else. So the sooner you realise that, the soon you will quit waisting your time trying to pass your beliefs as facts while harassing people about what they believe.
Again.. you have provided absolutely no support for the wild claims your have been making here. No one can even have an intelligent debate with you because:Quote:
But yes, I am a better debater on subjects like evolution and the origin of the universe, as I know what I am talking about, and as I can support my statements with facts, unlike you with your lies, and your religious claims and your hot air support...
1. you don't even offer support for your claims
2. you refuse to any acknowledge evidence that is contrary to your beliefs
3. you do not even give intelligent rebutals to any points made.
All you do is claim you beliefs have "objective evidence" and yet 3 months later I am still waiting for this so called evidence. :rolleyes:
I don't agree with people like Michaelb and WYH but at least they know how to have an intelligent debate. You Don't :rolleyes:
It is also appropriate for you to post "i believe that.." in front each wildCLAIM you make about big bangs, 14. Billion year uniniverses or what ever your BELIEFS are... lolQuote:

CREDOQuote:

You BELIEVE there is no God ---- But you can not prove that to be factual
You BELIEVE a big bang created the universe --- I am yet to see conclusive evidence
You BELIEVE we evolved from a one cell creature--- fossil evidence denies this
You BELIEVE there is no life after death---- you have zero evidence of this
You BELIEVE the universe is 14.3 billion years old ---- but you ignore the assuptions used
You BELIEVE Secular Humanism is not a religion ---- and yet it has the same tax except status as religious organisations.
These are a few among many beliefs you have Credo. So I don't know why you keep denying it... lol All of the above you Believe BY FAITH because all of the above BELIEFS are not FACTS. :)

I have absolutely no freakin idea what you are talking about. :confused: :D I was invited to this board a long,long,long time ago. I am but a bystander arguing the point that everyone has the right to think or feel or believe how they want. And I kind of got involved in it. Everyone is wanting proof for something that cannot be proven. And lots of people are getting frustrated. I keep seeing the same questions posed over and over again.
I said it before and I will say it again. I don't know ANYTHING about evolution, creationism, ID or whatever you want to call it or associate it with except what I have researched, learned in school, and read on here. Now I have my own IDEAS about where things orginiated. But I also BELIEVE there is a God. But I think there is some of both that have happened. I believe that God created the very first everything, but I also think that man takes far too much credit for things he didn't do. I think evolution(or whatever) played a MAJOR role in what exists today.
Scientists are but mere men, yes. And I believe that men(and women) are exactly what the bible says they are. Sinners. Liars, murderers, sloths, selfish, etc... So, no I really doubt that all of the evidence that they have put forward is the total truth either. I don't trust anyone but God and myself. Society has made it that way.
I believe that wondering where we all came from is probably a major waste of time. (NeedKarma made me realize some of that ;) ) Because all that really matters is living life to it's fullest. Doing what you can to live the "right" way. (however you decide that way may be) And I will learn the truth when I freakin die. But I LOVE A GOOD DEBATE!! :D :D So I am arguing the fact that believers (myself included) CANNOT prove God's or Jesus' existence. And from what I have seen the believers arguing against the non-believers keep demanding evidence that evolution is real and that there isn't a God, when no one said any of that. All the non-believers have said is that they don't believe in a higher power creating anything and then it went crazy from there. So then the demands came and when the demands of proof of no god shot out the non-believers made demands of a god and blah blah blah.
I just keep saying if you believe in God admit you cannot prove He exists and just leave it at the fact that you believe in Him. And if you don't believe in God then oh well for you. Neither have proof of anything. Credo has already admitted that, I have admitted that. But the beleivers keep wanting more form poor Credo. Now they want him to admit he has beliefs. I don't agree with that. Because Belief is defined by ol' webster as to have faith. And faith is defined by ol' webster as belief in God. So therefore if Credo doesn't believe in God he Doesn't HAVE ANY BELIEFS. :p
(okay please let that finally be the end of the credo has beliefs arguement)

Credo does not have faith in nor does he believe in God or any god.
THEREFORE HE HAS NO BELIEFS!!
