What are Darwinists so afraid of?

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

I was doing my algebra homework once, and I couldn't remember the equation that I needed. However, I was able to recognize that it was really just a somewhat complex conversion problem. So, I used the conversion "equations" from chemistry (grams-moles, etc), and solved the problem.

A couple of days later, he called for me after class. He was holding my homework in his hand, red-faced, shaking, trying to point at my homework while crumpling it at the same time, and said "DON'T YOU EVER DO A MATH PROBLEM LIKE THIS IN MY CLASS AGAIN!" I thought he was going to have a coronary. LOL.

Your right, keep your hocus pocus.

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

Nope. I just pointed out how many there are.

[andysandmikesmom]

Just go onto any of the religious threads in the religion forum...there you will find many major disagreements going on, about just what the Bible is saying...for some churches, there may be small differences between them and other churches, but there are also many major differences that are argued about and discussed every day here on FR, in the religious forums...and they can get every bit as nasty as any of the CREVO threads get...the religion moderator works overtime, I do believe, keeping the posters in check...the religion moderator even has special rules for the religious threads, rules which are even stricter than on the other threads...take a look at those threads, you might be surprised at what you find there...

[GreenOgre]

That's nice. Now prove it.

[freedumb2003]

Well there are plenty of scientists who are questioning your religion.

Define "plenty." I think on another thread, we figured out the number of "scientists" who are CR/Iders is in the hundreds while the number of people who are scientists is in the millions. That makes the number of scientists who are "questioning TToE" effectively nil.

And the loudest "scientists" who are speaking up are NOT IN THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES.

Now where is the transitory evidence between monkey and man.

Coyoteman has posted it to you.

Willful ignorance: The hallmark of a CR/Ider.

[Fester Chugabrew]

The text does not denote an either/or choice. Every knee shall bow whether it burns or not. The Apostle Paul was not a tyrant, and neither is God. Paul, as an instrument in the interest of making known what is true about the Creator, humbly gave up his life on behalf of the Church. God, in the interest of drawing all people to Himself, humbly gave up His life in the form of a Servant.

Maybe you think it's cool to spit in the face of someone who died for you, even when that Person happens to be your Maker. Whatever. "Tyrant" He ain't. Why not take a look at yourself instead?

Or maybe you think it is tyranny to be born with reason and senses and have them to enjoy in the service of yourself and your neighbor. Maybe you think cool water and good food is served up by this nasty "tyrant" who divested Himself of glory to win you for Himself. Whatever. It's more important to turn science classes into indoctrination classes in the interest of protecting your personal notions of truth.

Or maybe you think it is unfair that you are subject to someone greater than yourself, even though many who are greater than you serve day and night to make sure you enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Trying being your own master and doing whatever is your heart's desire sometime, and then we'll see who the real tyrant is.

Even humanly speaking ignorance is no excuse when it comes to the law. Is that a tyrannical concept? If so, then try starting a government based upon your personal principles and see how long it lasts.

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.

Not my department. I just provided a good link to world religions.

"DON'T YOU EVER DO A MATH PROBLEM LIKE THIS IN MY CLASS AGAIN!"

LOL! That is a great story! *sigh* College days -- the best days of our lives.

Quite a few large bio related companies use evolution theory and other derived theories to make new drugs and treatments.

[hellbender]

"Every knee shall bow.
Or burn.

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

Actually, the Gospel makes clear that "God is not willing that any should perish." I.e. He does not want to condemn anyone. The choice is up to us. Ideas have consequences, and what you believe about human nature is going to affect your life here and now, even if you chose to dismiss the possibility of eternal life. The Founding Fathers were overwhelmingly orthodox Christians. Western Christian culture gave rise to free societies, economic freedom, and science. So when you belittle Christianity, you are attacking the foundations of the society we all enjoy.

Actually I hammered his fake missing link. But calling me a religious nut really makes your case. Heresy burn him!!

Which part?

[freedumb2003]

Nice post. Clearly Evangelism is your strong suit. I would stay with it if I were you.

[blowfish]

Lovely philosophy...nothing to do with science, but lovely philosophy...

[wyattearp]

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.

There is no such thing as a "religion of Darwinism". The Theory of Evolution is one of the most (if not the most) well supported theories in science.

Talk about a Fundamentalist Cultist.

I don't recall ever using the words "Fundamentalist Cultist" to describe Christianity. Those are your words, not mine.

So where are all those transitory animals between Monkey and Man??

There aren't any. Monkeys and Man are both contemporary animals. We have a common ancestor, and there are substantial numbers of transitory animals to document this. There is also incontrovertible DNA evidence.

How did life begin w/o God??

Don't know. One theory is abiogenesis, but this theory has nothing to do with the TOE.

Do you have any answers or just insults?

I haven't been hurling insults, just observations. If you find rational observation insulting, that's your problem.

The uniqueness of the arm is philosophy???

[RFC_Gal]

Was working on getting a small business going and didn't have the time to post. Sometimes I have trouble with posting when I should be working but the business doesn't take as much of my time these days plus this is a slow period so I thought I would start posting.

[freedumb2003]

Actually I hammered his fake missing link.

Figuratively losing your eyes and saying "nya nya nya nya" isn't "hammering" anything.

But calling me a religious nut really makes your case. Heresy burn him!!

I hereby publicly demand you show exactly where I called you "a religious nut" or retract your statement.

[Coyoteman]

Go back to my post and look at the species name: there are three opinions acknowledged.

What kind of Conservative swallows something like evolution whole??

One who has actually studied it.
