The genetic code. How can something intelligent evolve from something inert?

1. Selection
2. Mutation
3. Gene Flow
4. Genetic Drift

Do you think Jesus evolved from apes?

Look, I respect your right to believe that Jesus is the son of God. I don't, following the tenets of my faith, and I don't think theological differences over the divinity of Jesus really should have much to do with the validity of modern science.

If you do want to get into a theological argument with me, perhaps this isn't the best venue.

Quoting from 255: Look, I respect your right to believe that Jesus is the son of God. I don't, following the tenets of my faith, and I don't think theological differences over the divinity of Jesus really should have much to do with the validity of modern science.

Reply: I am curious about the view that pixies make airplanes fly. Another view is that Jesus is responsible for making airplanes not falling out of the air--or causing airplane crashes. We have the elites at Boeing and Lockheed Martin--and they have their $$-interests (and families with spouses and kids) and reputation interests--but there is a faith-based view. The notion that there are man's laws in aerodynamics about heavier-than-air-craft in conflict with the Bible seems an arrogance against God. I mean, rockets go up as far as Saturn, and they never encounter heaven.

Pixies have been around for far longer than radiometric dating.

Pixies predated biblical era writers--some freepers can help me with dating. They existed long before god notions. Pixies had the decency of never condemning anyone to hell nor promising anyone to a heaven--pixies are very honest. And they keep airplanes aloft.

I mean, pixie-bashing on these threads is really upsetting. There is faith-belief that pixies do good things and make good things happen in morality.

Please do not mix up this with cult belief in psychics, astrologers, preachers, imams, dowsers, spoon-benders, or other faeries or holy scripts. It is only pixies.

The theory of evolution has only been around for a few hundred years while the history of the Bible has been around for thousands of years.

While scientists are busy searching for alternatives to creation, the end will come and prove that they weren't as wise as thought they were.
