Interesting. What more can a protein do?
Maybe.. terrible stuff???
How did this evolve?
It didn’t! God has a plan, and this is part of it.
It had to evolve from a rock, because that was the only thing here. I think, I guess, actually no one knows.
The dispute dispute among Christians is, did He do it in 6 days or was his plan carried out over 4 billion Earth years
I need a Phd just to read that......
It all depends.
I don’t think anyone knows just how long one of God’s days is.
Why can’t you just read comic books like the rest of us?
He exists OUTSIDE of time. So the whole argument is meaningless. Literally.
Yet another purpose for “junk DNA” I wonder?
Absolutely amazing. And to think evolutionists believe this incredibly complex machine we live in came about by accident. No wonder they say it took billions of years. I’d say that isn’t enough time.
Except that there was no death before Adam and Eve fell, so no failure to survive for 'survival of the fittest'.
Romans 5:12 - "Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men"
Yep, and this massively sophisticated molecular machinery simply arose spontaneously after bombarding mud puddles with lightening for a few hundred million years and then blasted the results into smithereens with cosmic rays for a few more hundred million years.
Just like a Panasonic CF-53 laptop computer with Windows 7 Pro x64 would arise spontaneously if we filled a beaker full of the elemental powders from which it is formed, put some sea water in,and then bombarded the laptop soup in the beaker with lightening for a few hundred million years. Or maybe, we initially only get a chip to form in the beaker and the chip eventually EVOLVED all by itself into the laptop (with operating system) after being blasted by cosmic rays for a long time.
Right? Right?
He exists OUTSIDE of time. So the whole argument is meaningless. Literally.
Very interesting point. You can blow your mind on this stuff.
What did God do before he created time? Yet there is no before time. It’s just mind blowing when you start to consider it. We are truly fearfully and wonderfully made.
Another point is God can make rocks that look millions of years old and in other parts leave us evidence of a young earth. It’s hardly inconsistent when you take God out of the box we like to think he lives in.
What’s interesting is the Hebrew verbiage used regarding creation days. The Hebrew word “yom” can mean either a day or an age. But then Genesis 1 continually declares that there was evening and morning for each day (almost like He anticipated the objections :)). Billions of years can’t be fit into an evening and a morning. Whenever yom is used with evening and morning, it always means a 24-hour day. Also, in Hebrew usage, using an ordinal number (first, second, etc.) to describe a day never refers to a long age, but an actual 24-hour day. This is also done throughout the Genesis account.
Evolution is atheism’s creation myth. Given the incredible complexity of even the most “simple” life form, it’s beyond impossible for chemicals to spring to life via time and chance, atheism’s twin “gods.” Darwin can sort of be excused because he thought that “simple” cells were just blobs of protoplasm. We know better now, but still “scientists” cling to evolution. It makes far more sense to believe that an intelligence beyond intelligence created everything.
What was the analogy I read somewhere? Something like for evolution to create a single usable protein via time and chance is akin to an entire solar system full of blind men simultaneously solving the Rubik’s Cube. But people will believe what they want to believe.
Death spread to all MEN. Doesn’t say all life was immortal.
Yes, they can, if you believe and understand general relativity.
Or is Genesis a description of a current creation whereas the geology describes previous creations?
Yes, but what can we use it for?
Mayhem, I tell you. Mayhem! For the mayhem-deserving.
