"Okay, this non-logic of yours how one has ever proved the Civil War happened, or proved that that the Holocaust happened, and then the you link that with your evolution and I don't get it. ooookaayyy LOL!"

Again, I am sorry you don't understand logic and proof.

<<<<< I already did. Are you incapable of reading?

"Are you following the trial? Are these the same tactics and logic your side is using there? "

Again, I gave you an answer as to whether I believe the Civil War happened. I said yes it did, that it would be crazy to believe otherwise, given the preponderance of the evidence. We can't, however, PROVE it happened, because proof is not something we can do outside of certain mathematical and logical statements, where all the premises are defined to be true. Creationists want evolutionists to *prove* speciation, when proof is never demanded of any other science.

What got us to this point on this thread was an assertion that it took more faith to believe in evolution than the Resurrection. This is absurd. I have repeatedly asked for ANY physical evidence that the Resurrection happened, and I am still waiting. Creationists demand absolute proof for evolution, yet they expect everybody to believe in their stories with NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE whatsoever. Why they can't just say they believe it on faith is beyond me.

They deride evolution (and a great many other sciences too, such as cosmology, geology, particle physics) as being like a *religion*, a term that they use with scorn in this case. They have a desperate need to be taken seriously by science, but when science does and finds them lacking, they can't handle it.


"...and I don't get it."

No Wolfie, I doubt you ever will.

Don't ping me again until you come up with that physical evidence of the Resurrection.

I get it just fine. I understand logic and proof just fine, but you are going off the deep end with it.

I am not a creationist (whatever that is) and I don't deride science.

I do think the scientists (or least people here that ostensibly hold themselves out to be scientists) overreach with their wrong headed conclusions in what they divine in the evidence.

What kind of physical evidence would you accept of a past event?

Cordially,
