The thing is, how can one side claim to be right without essentially meaning that the other is wrong? The impasse starts right at the beginning, i.e., the question of who or what was responsible for the creation of heaven and earth? Whether anybody on either side says it civilly or rudely, the deadlock remains.
The frightful idea that the Lord exists, imo, is the very reason that folks will keep darwin's theories on artificial life support until death and hell are swallowed up. On the other side, some Bible believers who are intimidated by unsupported insults, along the lines of being "luddites" or "unscientific", have made huge efforts to accept the idea that both could have occurred (i.e., started by the Lord, evolved by design).
Case in point, by implying that evolution is somehow "deceitful". Science cannot be deceitful. It is either true or untrue. If it is untrue, then it is not science; it is fallacy.
I really believe that darwin's theory of evolution is fallacious and I believe that promoting it as science is deceitful.
It is also pretty obvious that religion has been used as a bludgeon to attack evolutionists
I get your point. I also believe that those folks who call themselves Christians while harming and deceiving people "in the name of Christ" will suffer a worse judgement than those people who have used evolution against believers in the Bible. Either "side" is free to repent, of course.
I agree. In my opinion, the scientific evidence supports evolution. In your opinion, it does not. I seriously doubt that this question will be resolved in our lifetime, if ever.
But in all fairness, I have yet, when I have asked, to be presented with scientific evidence FOR creationism. Instead, I'm presented with "evidence" AGAINST evolution. Sorry, but if creationists wish for creationism to be considered a valid scientific hypothesis in opposition to evolution, such evidence must be shown.
I really believe that darwin's theory of evolution is fallacious and I believe that promoting it as science is deceitful.
At the risk of repeating myself, until scientific evidence for creationism is presented, I believe that evolution is the best explanation we have.
Either "side" is free to repent, of course.
Of course. Such is the nature of the system.
