Evolution Ping The List-O-Links

A conservative, pro-evolution science list, now with over 370 names. See the list's explanation, then FReepmail to be added or dropped. To assist beginners: But it's "just a theory", Evo-Troll's Toolkit, and How to argue against a scientific theory.

I believe a combination of both.

As we have seen on another thread:

You are overstating the obvious.

And that is, at best, barely sufficient.

And, yes, we need to all be nice just in case we get moved to the Religion Forum.

I say that often. Sometimes it helps :-).

Have a good weekend!

[Coyoteman]

I like your second 2. better than your first 2.

Good post though. Should carry us through the rest of the weekend anyway.

Those 154 are the totality of biologists who are evolution skeptics. Did you get that? The actual comparison is 46,600 biologists who accept evolution and a mere 154 who are "skeptical."

A lot of this bears repeating, but this part in particular.

But you have no proof, monkey-boy! </Luddite_mode>

(Thank God for the SBR!)

Well said.

However I would like to see the very mistaken claim that Darwinism (whatever that happens to be) is separate from the science of evolution and is nothing more than a religion, addressed.

Although the many who describe Darwinism as a religion attempt to separate this imaginary philosophical position from the sciences it is quite apparent that they have a decidedly anti-science lean. It would be helpful to enumerate the many tactics used in the attempts to divorce the (many) evolutionary sciences which contribute to the SToE from 'True(TM)' science.

Shouldn't people that are members of the Discovery Institute, senior or otherwise, be referred to as just plain old "fellers", instead of "Fellows"?

That seems more appropriate. I mean, we are talking about the Discovery Institue.

Creationist beliefs of the world

[bvw]

The executive summary is you haven't learned anything from uncounted debates for those were all points you entered the debate room with.

And sad, for to take the effort to put a post together that shows very clearly that you never give any attention whatsoever to a single thing the other side says, whilst labeling the post as if you have carefully paid all due attention. Delusional, sadly delusional.

How "nice" it is per your constantly proffered "Everyone be nice" for you since your mind is so set that the ears are deaf and eyes blind -- this one post is the proof of that, for it neither gives any credence nor even restates any points that have been brought up -- most many times repeated in variant forms -- points opposed to your initial positions.

Nice, well because, by such a remarkable demonstration of delusional thinking, you show that have earned the proper reward your motivations work for -- the fruit of the "Ignorance is Bliss!" tree. How sweet it must be for you! Enjoy, my friend!

You have won! You are the winner!

For so you proclaim it to yourselves.

I'll be gentle and respectful.

Being a Christian in the theological sense and a creationist are mutually inclusive.

To accept Jesus as Lord one must accept the first verse in Genesis quite literally.

[RightOnline]

Don't keep saying 'be nice' while going out of your way to belittle any and all who believe in creationism.....with the pathetically transparent tactic of equating Christians who hold such beliefs with every whacko cult you could dig up.

As the saying goes......don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. This is nothing more than yet another self-important, smug thread of yours, P.H. Give it up. It isn't working. I'll take God's word, you take yours.

Wacky IDiac/Creationzoid Bump!

Gentle FReepers, herewith I present a few conclusions I have reached after uncounted creation/evolution debates:

I suspect that these are conclusions that you've reached before engaging in uncounted creation/evolution debates...

With bait like this? No...

[JamesP81]

In stating that creationism isn't essential, we are relying entirely on the statements of thousands of Christian clergy, e.g., The Clergy Letter Project, a strong, pro-evolution statement signed by over 10,000 Christian clergymen; Statements from Religious Organizations, a list of Christian and Jewish denominations, including Roman Catholics, that accept (or at least don't dispute) evolution; and the recent statement opposing creationism by the Archbishop of Canterbury, leader of the 70-million-member Anglican Communion.

I understand you're trying to make your case here, but I've looked at this list. These are mostly liberal churches, especially the anglican communion. Basically, they have no credibility (with the exception of the Roman Catholic Church) with traditional christians. Contrary to what you intended, citing this document alienates traditional Christians from your viewpoint. If you want more of us to see things your way, I wouldn't cite religious support from a church that openly defies biblical teaching. It isn't going to work.
