>>Evolution is merely an explanation for the current diversity of the
species on earth. It says nothing regarding the existence of an
afterlife or the "meaning of life". <<
My theory is that fundamentalist creationists wouldn't really care,
for the most part, as long as evolutionists were willing to concede
that creationists, themselves, were the product of special creation,
in the image and likeness of God and all that.
It's the "monkey" part that really gets them going.

I think it is really Darwin's observation that all humans are of the
same species.

Yeah, I don't think they liked adding blacks to the human race, at
all.

>>How can water kill a person who is almost all water?<<
If this is what you consider to be a rhetorical question, you might try googling about. Excessive water consumption reduces the concentration of electrolytes in the blood stream. And then there's plain old drowning.
Neither of which have anything to do with viruses infecting human beings.
If you're tired, give it a rest, and try again tomorrow. I won't hold it against you.

Wow, are you paranoid much?
There is no bashing or malice here. I'm simply trying to ask a simple question about what I perceive to be a contradiction.

You sir are the typically clueless evo that jumps into a thread, and kneejerk reacts without knowing what's going on.

I agree. I just know that they do this all the time in order to try to say it's a religious thing, then shift the blame on the creationists after they insult everything they can about us. I admire your zeal and fight for truth. I am convinced that some of the folks that come to FR only do so to argue with us (conservatives). I guess yahoo got boring for them. They would love to make real conservatives stop coming here, if they did, they would win. You are a fighter and I admire that.

Darwin was a layabout deadbeat who would be on welfare if he was alive today. No one who has actually read "Origins" would believe this for a second.

As someone who worked in the printing business for many a year and owned my own publishing business, I can assure you that printing presses don't reproduce books, people reproduce books.
What comes out of a printing press isn't a book. It's sheets of paper that need to be folded, stacked, collated, bound, covered, cut, etc., etc., etc.
I promise you that nobody ever fed a book into one end of a printing press and got a similar book out the other! -g-

They all are baiting, but they aren't going to get away with racist statements that are assigned to us and the like. You know as well as we all do that back on the thread you guys got pulled, Sultis explained very clearly how the question of whether blacks were fully human was an open question in Darwin's day, and that Darwin was influential in getting whites to see that blacks were indeed just as human as we are.
Unfortunately that thread got pulled because of massive disruptor pollution by y'all. But Truth cannot be deleted.

Does Origins have some magical powers that makes one unable to read other books on Darwin himself?

Then her racist remark was pointed directly at christians.
What you failed to pay attention to is that I asked her specifically to explain before I knew who she was talking about. She still hasn't. Indeed she went on to make more spurious statements against christians.
I suppose now you will defend her statement.

Excessive water consumption reduces the concentration of electrolytes in the blood stream. And then there's plain old drowning.And virii "infect" a cell by having the RNA passed through the cell wall and replicated along with other RNA within the cell. So what? The RNA is no more alive than a brick is a courthouse.

I read it and found it completly absurd for the most part. It showed a man with little to do with his time. The man goes to galapagos island and sees a bunch of finches and WHAT? HMS Beagle cabin boy :)

>> They are reproduced by a cell.<<
Also, very important, the cell doesn't reproduce viruses. The viruses hijack the normal cell functions and use the cell to reproduce more viruses, to the great detriment of the cell.

people reproduce books. And cells reproduce virii. It is not complicated.(so far as the major steps are concerned)
