Whoever wrote it needs to go back to school. Or maybe he hasn't got there yet.

Or maybe just occupied space in a school for awhile, like desks do.




Typical scholarly approach to addressing the cult of evolution, "you're bad and ignorant"... neener, neener, neener, your a terd...

I'm so totally and completely impressed with the level of scientific and academic discussion from the Darwinists. I'm so utterly enlightened and impressed that I must admit, I'm convinced! NOT! And I've got some swampland in Florida that's worth about as much as the cult of evolution's opiate for atheists!

Evolution, what a worthless load of crap... I expect to actually see a REAL rebuttal with actual, scientific, verifiable PROOF that evolution is anything but the secular fundamentalist religious dogma that it is. And once again, I'm dissappointed that evolution still lives up to its billing as vacuous rhetoric to sooth the atheist.

Flawed applications of Darwin’s theory of natural selection do not disprove the theory of evolution.

1) A ‘law of the jungle’ society is worse than an ordered, co-operative one. So such a society doesn’t conform to the idea of natural selection anyway.

2) Some societies are more powerful than others typically due to accidents of history and geographical luck. So that isn’t ‘natural’ selection either.

3) Any cultural reasons for superior economies and whatnot do tend to spread (e.g. capitalism). But the spread is not following the method of beneficial mutations being passed on to offspring, which is what the theory of evolution prescribes.

4) Not that it is relevant, given the above points, but Hitler clearly screwed up if he thought he was improving Germany’s gene pool by persecuting the Jews, seeing as they included amongst them the finest minds in physics at the time. He wanted to conquer Europe and persecuted the theorists behind the A-bomb. Ooops.

It's called suffering fools with humor. Of course, I doubt you see the humor.

What a load of horse manure

Can you be a little more specific?

Hitler was a creationist, not an evolutionist. The case for the creationists keeps getting worser and worser.

Hitler was a creationist, not an evolutionist.

He also fancied himself a great artist, kind of like the Hollywood and pop music crowd do. This attitude is seems to be fertilizer for megalomania.

I am not perfect because I am not God.

I was born a sinful man.

Oxytocin is a hormone that is involved in (among other things) the bonding between a mother and her newborn. The gene # is A00048.

That might be slightly helpful if I were a mouse. Thanks for the response anyway.

Good for you. I was born an innocent baby.

Think of it like this, evolution believe that if you have a deck of 52 cards and two jokers, and then shuffle the deck thoroughly, and throw the entire deck up in the air as high as you can, that eventually all of the cards will land, in perfect order, and perfectly aligned. The probability of this even happening one time in a billion years approaches zero. Then, to believe evolutionary "theory," you have to accept on blind faith that this same miracle of perfect order from total chaos has repeated itself millions of times to account for each of the plants, animals, and life on earth.

Good article. I would like to see an evolutionist answer this. Logically it makes no sense to believe that this could occur even once. If this were a religious occurrence it would be called "miraculous". And the level of complexity in this example seems to be much less than say, the creation of an eye.

" Good article. I would like to see an evolutionist answer this."

Ok, it's crap. The *probabilities* were pulled out of the ass of the author. It has no relation whatsoever with any known physical process. It is desperate wishful thinking.

Thanks for the well thought out answer. What are the probabilities of the card scenario occurring compared to the probability of dead matter becoming alive?

Chemistry doesn't operate on "chance". If it did, then imagine the odds of an ice cube forming. In just one cube there are innumerable atoms, all lined up in rows. In snow flakes, they even make pretty designs.

You want to tell me that this is by shear "accident"?

It is impossible to analyze chemistry by just looking at odds. And when creationists do this, science laughs and points.

You people should be embarrassed, but you don't have enough knowledge to know what it is you don't know.

This thread is an embarrassment to FreeRepublic, and to all of conservatism.

If this were my website, I'd pull the thread and ban its poster. But it's not my website. Nevertheless, sitting in the News/Activism forum, this thread shows the very worst face of creationism to the world. At minimum, the thread should be moved to the blogger forum. It originated as an article from some blog, and the person who created the thread seems to flog the blog's URL with every post he makes. Also the URL of the blog is in that person's tagline. I thought we weren't supposed to use our posts to promote other websites.

If I were a troll from DU, I'd want to post threads like this on FreeRepublic. But if I cared about the reputation of FreeRepublic, this thread would be gone. Why does this thread continue to exist?

What are the card scenarios having anything to do with evolution... close to zero.

I repeat The *probabilities* were pulled out of the ass of the author.

Well, that's about the same level as the original post. Maybe he'll understand that. (not holding breath)

Okay, then what is the probability of dead matter becoming alive? Isn't that the premise of the origin of life in evolution?

I don't know. Some of the more intelligent conservative lurkers out there might get the idea that it's embarrasing to hang around this kind of discourse and just drop the subject.
