Look familiar metmom? So tell me what the difference would be if the exact same DNA was packaged in two sets of 23 chromosomes rather than two sets of 24? How do you see that as a detrimental mutation or any barrier to viability at all?

Define “spirit.”
And what would incorporating God do to Science other than drive away any who didn't share your view of God? A
nd if one invoked God's blessing or whatever upon the science they do, would they not then defend their interpretation as if it were something of God's rather than just a working model that helped explain and predict the data?
Not that I expect a rational answer out of you, but I guess I must at least extend the offer.
For me, I see that sort of thing as a a good justification for the use of the abuse button.
How very many people are so confused about where they are!

Last night there was a truck add on the football game show that featured three guys trying to pick a "winning" tool case from among nine. There were, of course, no clues or anything about the contest that would reward effort, knowledge or intelligence. Just luck.
Looks to me like a metaphor for religion. Those born at the right place and time get the right beliefs and get eternal life.
Effort to understand the world and how it works counts for nothing. Even more interesting, simply striving to do good works doesn't count.
The only thing that counts is being born into the right tribe and learning to recite the correct incantations.
To stretch that to living systems where each constituent unit will have unpredictable behavior to a large extent, is silly.
No, to think that something is EXEMPT from a LAW is what's silly.
If it didn't apply universally, it wouldn't be a law.
Perhaps you could then explain the deterioration of the human body with age. Perhaps you could explain where mutations come from. Perhaps you could explain exactly what the difference it between a dead body and a live one is. What is life? And why does the body begin to rot so quickly once the individual dies? Or more precisely, what is it that keeps the human body from resisting for so long the deterioration that the 2nd Law imposes on it ?
O.K... the spirit is LIFE.. for in a human when the spirit leaves the human flesh is dead.. and dead DNA and live DNA looks and is exactly the same.. Its just not ALIVE when the spirit leaves....
Is a carrot alive?.. I would say yes.. Then when does a carrot DIE?.. I dunno.. maybe a carrot has a kind of spirit?.. This is fun..
All of science has no idea what Life is.. or even death.. for to know what one is, the other should be obvious.. To wit; God, spirits, other things we cannot see.. or don't want to see..
Welcome to my sandbox.. but watch for Schroeders Cat poop..
You just answered your own question.
That it was a cross is what’s got people so up in arms, at least judging by all the comments here about the shape and the guys religious beliefs.
I see hardly anybody addressing the fact that it is wrong to burn people, period.
I agree..
Lucky for us all Jesus came to make all religion on this planet obsolete.., AND DID..
The atheists are ungrateful whelps..
If I was reading a paper on Genetics, and suddenly the paper started to discuss how we should all feel about this and how it fits right into some previously held religious scripture of whatever source, or started to claim that this data was evidence for or against a scriptural interpretation, or “proved” or “disproved” God or some theological concept, or started waxing philosophical.... well then it would have departed the realm of science and I would skip to the next section that was discussing the data and have a great deal of suspicion overall.
Jesus homeland?.. Where is that?.. Who is Jesus?.. What is Jesus?..
Large questions that interconnect.. and many sub-issues too..
Worthy of a thread all its own I would say..
You ask the right questions..
Depends on who Jesus is determines his homeland..
Who is Jesus, TO YOU?.. Then his homeland can be answered..
My answer... this and other probable, Universes and dimensions/realms..
“So many people are in a tailspin because it was a cross burned into the kids arm.
Like it would have been a less serious offense if it had been some other symbol burned into his arm?”
As of your post 146 not one anti-evolutionist has experessed even the mildest criticism ot the teacher.
Why?
Tell me more about how the human body, for the law to be applicable, can be considered an isolated system. Give me the modes of isolation, and the range of the properties that ensure this isolation.
And hterefore hte actions of one idiot means all ID proponents must therefore want to introduce religion into science- Cripes- what a crock- Go back to DC where you came from- Shall we call up all the assinine secularist actions and indict ALL of secularism with a bunch of irrelevent articles too? Buh Bye- it’s apaprent you aren’t interested in any facts- but only in villifying ID any way you can! Somethign that children and not intellectually honest scientsits do- Somethign you should learn!

Up ‘til now you haven’t.
Perhaps I missed it?
As for a religious symbol being more egregious than a random mark, what if it had been a star and crescent?
