You are the one arguing that you haven't seen something, thus it must not exist, not me.

Wrong.

I've argued that there is plenty of evidence for many things that we haven't seen first hand. Especially and including God.

But there is no such evidence for evolution. Big surprise. Because it is a lie.

"God's Word that opened my eyes."

It closed them, not opened them.

Right. God's Word lies to people and blinds them.

I wonder where that argument comes from.

Don't put words in my mouth, lie about what I said, then attack me based on your lies.

When you stop looking for truth, then your eyes are closed.

If you seek truth, and you believe that God is truth, then no matter what you find, you found God.

Even if that truth contradicts your earlier beliefs.

If scientists can prove that the claims made by the theory of evolution are true, then they found God, because God is truth.

God did not give you eyes so that you can be blind to the wonders all around you, nor did He give you a brain so that you could not use it.

There is a mountain of evidence, but your eyes are closed, so you can't see it.

What does evolution predict?

Here's a good place to begin your literature search. Each section has a list of predictions, ie things that should be found in nature or the lab if ToE is true, and also lists of things which, if they were ever found, would show ToE to be false.

ID, of course has no such predictions or potential falsifications.

Biblical/Koranic creationism does make predictions, some of which are known to be false. EG, Noah's flood was disproved decades before Darwin, but the Bible never mentions the Ice Ages. Another example is the fifth day has the creation of fish and birds, and the sixth has land animals; this is the wrong order, land animals are found earlier than birds in the fossil record.

Please. Show me where I have ever lied about you, put words in your mouth or "attacked" you.

SHOW ME THE POST.

You can't, because I haven't.
Now stop feeling sorry for yourself and try to address something I've actually said.

It's the Religion of Evolutionism/Darwinism.

Time the talisman of evolution, and the stars the only redoubt.

Are you sure you are not a liberal. Conservative means to hold to family values, one of those values would be respect. Which I do not see in you.

Incredible.

Only an evolutionist could post this sort of convoluted crap and think it actually makes sense.

Hey Jose!...I'm an ex-evolutionist.

I've SEEN this so called "mountain of evidence", believed in it and spouted it for years.

But my eyes have been opened and I will NEVER believe that idiot crap again as long as I live.

What I believe now, and the Light in my life is so far beyond that mentally crippled up evolution deceit that I can't even describe it. All I can do is pray for you.

Unless you're a retread? If so, what was your old screen name?

DING! DING! DING!

We have a winner! And he's already bitten the dust! What is it about some anti-Evos and their inability to follow the few simple, relatively unobtrusive rules of FR? Makes you wonder.... hmmmmmmmmm?

From my post #778:

What a laugh. Pay your dues, newbie, before you start running the place.

Post #779 -- gone!

That must have been a real winner! I took a break for dinner and missed it. Anybody able to FRmail a copy to me?

Dunno; but he was (apparently) a recycled disruptor troll; his account is nuked, and ALL his posts along with it, not just 779.

#779 must have been a doozie. PH will get a kick out of this, when he crawls out of the sack at about 3 AM (real time).

This guy was obviously a retread; you certainly caught that early--you don't just spring full-blown into the fray if you are new to the threads.

It is also a warning to all of us to obey the rules.

God gave me a brain so I could use it to deny His Word and make Him a liar. Right.

By the way, I graduated first in my college class with a perfect 4.0 GPA, so please don't lecture me on how to use my brain.
Evolution is a delusion sent for those who reject God and His Word ALREADY.

Just read your post 778, and got a little bit of info, as to what this Sha2006 said...good grief, the guy signs up yesterday, and then he starts making nasty cracks about evos, and then goes on to question why we would even be on a conservative site...guess he thought he should be running FR, instead of Jim Robinson...

...All you have is the existence of some bones that have turned to rocks to support your theory that any of this is even remotely possible, much less that it was likely....

Also a bit of DNA evidence.

From the above. How do you explain this without common descent? How much evidence is required before doubt becomes unreasonable?
