'Totally Strange' Hurdia a Hurdle for Evolution
ICR ^ | September 9, 2009 | Brian Thomas, M.S.

Posted on 09/09/2009 10:05:48 AM PDT by GodGunsGuts

Cambrian rock layers contain fossils that represent almost every modern phylum of animal, plus many that are now extinct. One animal fossil in particular would win the weird prize, if there were one. Paleontologists have been piecing together this strange creature’s body parts, which look as though they were taken from an array of totally different sea animals. This variety of features eludes an evolutionary explanation.

The parts of this particular fossilized animal had previously been described separately and given different names, as though they belonged to different creatures. But a recent study revealed that all these parts came from just one “totally strange” sea creature...

[[Okay, that’s two. Anyone else want to applaud CottShop for posting his anti-Catholic slander?]]

Lol- You really are clueless abotu Catholicism aren’t you? Those aren’t my words fella- they are direct Catholic edicts- you can look them up if you like- they don’t hide their edicts from you- they aren’t keeping secrets from you or anyone else- Again- the truth must really sting if you’re accusing me of ‘slandering catholicism’ by simply pointing out hteir own recorded biblical errors lol

Surely you didn’t expect any trace of honor from GGG.

[[And besides, it’s more than just a little disingenuous of them to champion the Catholic Church, seeing how they hate them in every respect except one.]]

They ONLY champion any religion when they think it puts TRUE Christianity in a bad light- they simply don’t realize how uninformed and uneducated their silly ad hominem attacks are though, as God’s word is consistent truth which stands the test of time- Any religion that breaks from God’s word and sets itself up above God’s word, or denys God’s word in any way shape or form is just a ok with evos who will jump to their defense whining about martyrdome and being ‘maligned’ by icky TRUE Christians who simply take God’s word as TRUTH

I found this on another FR thread a few weeks ago. I think one of you guys posed for it! "Ex-smoker of the religious world" is such an apt description of your outlook and of your closely held perception of self-importance.

Ex-smokers are fine when they don't broadcast their inflated sense of self-superiority.

Take that as a lesson.

[[2 Peter 1:20-21
20Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation. 21For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.]]

Vs like htis simply don’t matter to posers who pretend to be God’s children- after all, the whole word of God to them is ‘open to various interpretations’, and can be manipulated any which way they so desire- so they really have NO solid base to work from- God’s word to htem is NOT objective truth, but rather is subective ‘suggestions’ written by fallible man who ‘made mistakes’ and ‘were ignorant sheepherders’ in the evos eyes. They do NOT beleive God’s word is the Holy Inspired word FROM God THROUGH man, but they beleive the bible is simpyl a conglomeration of ‘good stories’ told by men which may or may not be true, may or may not be myth- Most don’t even beleive Christ was born of a virgin and was the actual Son of God- they think He was just a ‘good teacher’ teachign morals which we shoudl all ‘try to emulate- so as to save ourselves’- They compeltely miss the whole point of God’s word- Heck- they even have ‘bible studies’ on sites like Darwin Central focussed solely on subjectively injterpreting the bible to fit their secular ideology

LOL. Since we (godless leftist secular humanists) have no moral code, if a small dog were to be in our way, we all kick them. Or have sex with them, as our complete lack of morality leads us to have as much sex with as many living or dead animals (sometimes even humans) as we can. I’m pretty sure that’s the argument boiled down to its essence.

Oh the crevo wars were much more humorous in the PatrickHenry days. The numbers were fairly even back then, but many of the oldtimer evos have since been banned or just walked away.

You must excuse Coldwater- He is under the delusion that every scientist in ID must beleive that there is no God, or that God isn’t hte intelligence simply because a few more well known proponents of ID think Evolution was still possible- He can’t escape his narrow little worldview long enough to realize that there are ID scientists that beleive God is the ID, and that macroevolution is a biological, mathematical, chemical impossibility, and that nature is simply incapable of creating IC- He is under the delusion that Behe and Demski and a couple of others who still think nature was capable of IC DESPITE a compelte lack of evidence to uspport htis- somehwo are the end all be all of the ID movement- it is inconceivable to CW that there are ID scientists who might actually beleive God exists, that God is hte ID behind the IC, and that macroevolution could not have occured-

He likes glomming onto a blatant misrepresentation of ID as a whole as though it’s some sort of ‘victory’ for him- it’s just another case of being out of ammo and htrowing spitwads- using blatant misrepresentations of ID by a scant few individuals, claimign htey represent the whoel iof ID- they don’t- they are just isolated vioces which other ID scientisits DISSAGREE with- He can’t comprehend this FACT- and iwll argue endlessly that Behe and Demski somehow are the end all be all of ID- its a silly little game that is no more effective htan chuckign spitwads

As I asked cultmom: How’s the weather in the microcosm today?
Your brand of cult Christianity is phony. My authority for saying so? You won’t answer THE question.

I have another question, now... was your post supposed to make some sort of logical sense for a native English speaker?

Yes—perhaps you should find one to provide a translation for you...

People that pretend to be Christians WHILE REJECTING God’s word are fien hwen hteir lips aren’t moving, or hteir fingers aren’t hitting keys, whining about being persecuted by Christians who take God’s word seriously-

Take a lesson from that

“Nor can you read God’s word apparently.”

Which version? Which translation? What about the books that aren’t included in whatever version you’re using?

The bible is as much a construction of man as it is the word of God.

Seems you have no “answer” to the verses I posted.

God’s Word is like that - a sword and a shield. (Eph 6:17)

Notice I’m not saying anything from my own authority.
You seem to think your own authority trumps the Word, though. That’s humorous.

See post 314. I don’t engage in dueling scripture fests. Have you missed that point?

Yeah. Because I trust you to analyze the Catholic Church's biblical errors.

That means a lot coming from Buck W., the evo-atheist who pretends to be a Christian while denouncing genuine Christians in the name of Christianity. I have asked Buck W. numerous times if Jesus Christ is his Lord and Savior, and he has refused to answer each time. All Christians confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior as per God’s Word in the Bible. Moreover, since Buck W. keeps injecting Catholicism into the discussion over origins, he has been asked over and over if he himself is a Catholic. He refuses to answer that question as well. I have asked Buck W. to let me know if he ever becomes an actual Christian, or for that matter, if he ever becomes a Catholic (or at least fesses up to being an evo-atheist liar for Darwin). Until then, my standard response is to tell Buck W. to buzz-off as poser who is here for the purpose of stirring up trouble.

PS Are you a practicing Catholic, Ha Ha?

Thanks for the (non)-ping! Your actions continue to betray all of the ominous signs of decorum.

You are a phony Christian, GGG. You are a pied-piper, tragically leading those of faith nearly as weak as yours still further away from Jesus Christ.

You are the ACORN of the evangelicals.
