The Origin of Speciousness (Darwinism is an intrinsically atheistic theory. If...)

All I can say is Creation in the Bible has little words for it, the bulk of the Bible is about how sin destroys. Darwin's theory would be better challenged on that point, imo. (Then again Darwinism is not even theoretical, it's the archetype of scientific cults, selling their own product with authority in conflict of interest, but I digress slightly).

Pure Garbage. No arguments, just a few selective quotations from a few scientists pontificating on theology as if they were authorities on the subject.

They, and not atheists, seem to be determined to drive theistic evolutionists out of their camp.

What do you expect? They have no good arguments against evolution. The only way they're going to win anyone to their side is if they convince comitted Christians unsure about evolution that they can't accept evolution and Christianity at the same time.

Look at the AIG website and how much space they devote to making this argument.

It's more like the other way around. Ever since the Enlightenment - heck, ever since Galileo - the Church has been trying to keep the faith intellectually respectable as new scientific discoveries have kept threatening specific literalist interpretations of the Bible.

Some scientific theories are so well-supported that it would be foolish for the Church to try to deny them in order to save a particular piece of dogma. So they re-interpret the Biblical passage or the dogma instead, thus protecting the faith.

I have no idea what your basis is for statements such as these, but they're ridiculous. Science, for the open-minded and objective, has done nothing but confirm the tenets for a good chunk of what the Bible teaches regarding varying topics that would fall under the "scientific" category or hinge upon evidence within that community.

Archaeologically, there hasn't been a discovery or excavation to date that has done anything but verify the historicity of the Bible.

Those are the facts. As usual, if you want to believe that the world is flat, just like everyone on earth at one time, then feel free. ; )

So is our existence, our very being, like living in California?

I wish. Oh how I miss my home state, especially when freezing my butt off in New England.

So if Darwin is the be-all end-all how did the first protien invent itself and then construct itself?

Who ever said Darwin is the "be-all end-all"? His theory is extremely powerful, yes, but it's not a theory of everything. In fact, it's quite limited in its scope; it's only about what happened once life came into existence. It's totally silent on what happened before that. It's perfectly consistent with the notion that God simply "poofed" the proteins into existence.

You know, I've wondered if the Tower of Babel story is an allegorical story that chronicles part of the Indo-European migrations. Sort of a written story of something spread in tales.

Darwinism works for evolving animals, but not for a sinful humankind which is becoming stupider.

Becoming stupider? Can you support the claim that humanity is, overall, steadily becoming "stupider"?

Moreover, can you explain how this, if it is a genetic trait, should interfere with reproduction rates?

Man does not survive through fit but through politics meant to undermine perceptions of such fitness.

Do you understand what "fit" means in the context of natural selection? There is no absolute standard for "fitness". Fitness varies based upon environmental conditions.

Evolution works towards a single limit between man and animals. Animals tend up to it, men tend down to it in convergence.

Evolution makes no distinction between humans and non-human animals. Both are reproducing life-forms.

Soddomite bestiality is an interesting metaphore of this phenomena.

Well this certainly came out of nowhere. Are you just rambling or do you really think that you have a coherent point here?

Until Darwinists realize that Darwinism is not meant to approve Marx's false ideal of the perfectibility of man, then we're doomed as a race.

The theory of evolution just explains biological diversity. It makes no claims of current or impending "perfection", and I don't know of anyone who actually understands the theory who makes such a claim.

And an atheistic theory it is with the ultimate purpose to kill God and, hence, Christianity, which it is to say Western culture and its people.

Do you have an actual argument against the theory of evolution or just unsupportable paranoid delusions about it being some conspiracy to wreck your religion?

Otherway around, it evolved into rabit due to the environment of my crappy typing, and worse editing. Poor thing.

Thought you might be interested

The ChiComs are using the tenets of darwinistic evolutionism the “natural sciences” (so that people have “the basic knowledge about life, the universe, the origin of life, the rule on human evolution).

This is just one part of the ChiComs secret directives on how to eradicate religion and ensure the victory of marxist atheism, and to to stop the growth of religion and spirituality among the Chinese. These things will be replaced with the with the norms and dogmas of “scientific thought”.

The ChiComs have clearly adopted the tenets of darwinistic evolutionism as part of their plan to eradicate religion and ensure the victory of marxist atheism.

Scary, isn't it?

Quite scary that there are people stupid enough to believe that the theory of evolution somehow directly lends support to unfavourable systems of government such as China's.
