What are Darwinists so afraid of?

Quite a few on this site, and other sites, say that believing in evolution will send one straight to hell.

"4,200 religions, churches, denominations, religious bodies, faith groups, tribes, cultures, movements, ultimate concerns"

Denomination, religious bodies, tribes, cultures, and movements are not usually thought of as "religions." Most of humanity belongs to a few big religious groups. At least a third of mankind is nominally Christian or Muslim. Both are monotheistic, Abrahamic religions. Counting up all the tiny little exotic tribal belief systems doesn't alter that fact.

Your intent was clearly to demean organized religion by implying that there are a myriad of totally distinct, contradictory worldviews.

Every knee shall bow.

Or burn.

Not the words of a loving god, but of a tyrant.

[freedumb2003]

Oh, no... Please no... (picturing my math professors...)

I think everything would end up boiling over and/or burning... (LOL)

Finally just look at your hand and tell me it wasn't designed. I suggest that if you deny that intelligence had anything to do with that design, you may one day have to answer to the designer. I know that if I created a masterpiece and someone said that I didn't make it or design it, but that it was just something that crawled out of the slime, I might get a little upset.

Your response shows the arrogance of the ID/Creation crowd. Your hand is not perfect. Nothing about you is perfect. A monkey's hand has evolved to climb trees and pick fruit. A bear's paw has evolved to run, climb, and catch fish.

Yet your creation is due to divine intervention. You are so perfect that you could not have evolved through millions of years of natural trial and error. You're words are the height of arrogance.

Or else you go to hell, said the whiny, emotionally disturbed adolescent.

There is exactly one "Catholic" church listed here. I asked for documentation of the "12 Catholic churches" cited in an earlier post. This is no answer at all.

It wasn't God I was mocking.

Cute link. It is interesting that Islamicists and Christists recognize only one mathematics. Al-gebra works the same--if you do it correctly--whether one is atheist or Buddhist.

Prior assumptions are a different thing.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (Romans 1:18-20 KJV)

So its ok for you to make fun of the religion that 90% of America believes in but not to make fun of your religion of Darwinism. Talk about a Fundamentalist Cultist. So where are all those transitory animals between Monkey and Man?? How did life begin w/o God?? Do you have any answers or just insults?

Awwww, are you being show up by a newbie? Again?

Shame on you.

I do think that the arm or hand is an amazing creation. It is an assortment of independent living cells, organized into systems of skin, muscle, fat, sinew, bone, blood, etc. All of these are so complex as to defy copying. The life in the cells of the flesh, and the flesh itself is so amazing, so unique, so manifestly complex to an order of infinity that is incomprehensible.

Let them make flesh. Anyone. Ever. And then put life it it.

Or let them put meaning into anything.

There is no real meaning outside of God....only localized or personalized efforts at putting together this or that "code that you can live by."

But, without God, one code is really no different than another. Mao's code or Adolf's code or Clinton's code or Darwin's code.....meaningless. They'll all blow up some day in some super nova and it will have made no difference whatsoever.

But, with God, of course, there is eternity.

the standard cliche reply anyone who questions Darwin is a Religious Nut

Well proven facts do generally become cliches. Common examples are, "the sky is blue," "where there is smoke there is fire," "Kerry is a flip-flopper," "Creationist are religious nuts," etc.

[bray]

Every fossil every found was of a life that was transitory. That being said, there are many transitional fossil sequences

Complete and utter nonsense. Every fossil showed no transition whatsoever and most are still here today. Now answer the question where is the fossil evidence of the transitory animals? Fact is there is none, nada, nothing. Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters Shalom Israel

[RFC_Gal]

Yes - I have read most every tech and science related thread posted to this site over the past few years.

Have you tried attacking my ideas? It would be a more productive way of proving your point than posting my sign up date which anyone can easily figure out from my public profile.

[Coyoteman]

Where is the fossil evidence of the transitory animals?? Should be millions of them??

Doesn't need to be millions, just a few in the right places. This is one of those transitionals in just the right place. Note its position in the chart which follows (hint--in the upper center):

---

Fossil: KNM-ER 3733

Site: Koobi Fora (Upper KBS tuff, area 104), Lake Turkana, Kenya (4, 1)

Discovered By: B. Ngeneo, 1975 (1)

Estimated Age of Fossil: 1.75 mya * determined by Stratigraphic, faunal, paleomagnetic & radiometric data (1, 4)

Species Name: Homo ergaster (1, 7, 8), Homo erectus (3, 4, 7), Homo erectus ergaster (25)

Gender: Female (species presumed to be sexually dimorphic) (1, 8)

Cranial Capacity: 850 cc (1, 3, 4)

Information: Tools found in same layer (8, 9). Found with KNM-ER 406 A. boisei (effectively eliminating single species hypothesis) (1)

Interpretation: Adult (based on cranial sutures, molar eruption and dental wear) (1)

There are evidently 33,000 Protestants denominations with about 270-300 being added each year. Of course, every time someone comes up with a new interpretation of Scripture he or she goes off to form "The One True Church."

No, but she's certainly holding her own, and is right on the money with the statement:

"Quite a few on this site, and other sites, say that believing in evolution will send one straight to hell."

I've seen it more times than I can count. RFC-Gal is doing better than most newbies (especially starting out in crevo threads - of all places). IMHO.
