What are you talking about? Eighteen (18) what?

Oh the irony.

We is much smarter dan da is!!!

I see we are being treated to the standard CR/IDer scintillating displays of logic and argumentation.

No, just the smug lack of humor of some evos. :-)

You must not be familiar with Elsie's humor.

Cheers!

The 'scientific process' is limited *by definition* to natural explanations. Not the best 'a priori' limit to place on your acceptable explanations when supernatural vs natural is the question you are trying to answer.

No, not all of the evos are trying to answer that. Many of them have either taken a materialistic worldview as a given, assumed (for the nonce) that the existence of God is irrelevant--(if God interferes enough to make Himself known, then I can't count on "good enough" results to make predictions anyway, so I might as well assume "no God" in the meantime), or they are only concerned with the material aspect of things *in the first place*. "Whether of not God exists, I'm not looking at right now. Just consider the juxtabronchial organ secretions in the higher molluscs!"

It is impossible to find evidence of the supernatural in science, *by definition*.

Generally yes, unless hitherto unforeseen results cause you to question the whole philosophical underpinnings.

Don't be deceived.

Reg flag in front of a bull. Ask them to engage in more rigorous parsing of their logical positions.

Cheers!

Before you get too far into this 'discussion', if you don't already know, you might want to consider that GourmetDan is a geocentrist. That's right, he thinks the earth is the center of he universe.

That's OK. Many evos are egocentric, so it cancels out! :-)

Cheers!

...oh, and ad hominem placemarker.

Creationists, perhaps, don't have a problem with micro-evolution, it's speciation that they can't accept, mainly because of its implications for the emergence of the human species. To preserve the special position of humankind within the order of nature, they have to insist that every species is the product of a special act of creation. Otherwise, one would not be preserving the uniformity of natural laws.

This and the rest of the post seem to be some of the best-written and well thought out material I have seen on these threads for a long time.

Cheers!

Medicine overturns the statement in the Bible that women shall suffer in childbirth.

Bill Cosby in the movie Bill Cosby, Himself quoted comedienne Carol Burnett on the pains of childbirth:

Take your bottom lip and pull it up over your head.

Medicine does not overturn the statement--it provides a chemical amelioration of the pain.

Cheers!

ME: No, demonstrably bad design shows that the hypothetical designer is not a good engineer.

You: You are jumping to a lot of conclusions!

The details are left as a proof to the interested lurkers on the thread.

Huh? Did you read the website I linked to?

What's the point of having teeth that never erupt, or hind leg buds that get reabsorbed before birth, or the mis-wired recurrent laryngeal nerve?

Why should some infant marsupials have an egg tooth they never use? Isn't this actualy poor design?

Yes the choice is mine, and not yours....and Gods decision regarding the ultimate fate of me and you and everyone else on earth is HIS decision, not yours...the Bible makes that quite clear as well...

And thats really quite grand...because it shows that your opinion about anothers fate, is meaningless, and with no value at all...God does not consult you, about anothers fate...thankfully He makes that decision on His own...your views are not considered...you opinion is nothing...it does not count...the Bible is also clear about that...

We have living transitionals.

Then post THESE to make your point: not a color spectrum.
