Atheist isn't an insult if you are one. Neither is idiot
A hit, sir, a palpable hit!

As has been pointed out elsewhere in these threads, even if artificially generated life were to be made in the lab, it would only serve to demonstrate that the humans can create life (from something).

For man, and out of love. So you postulate a supernatural being, far more powerful than yourself, who created this vast ant-farm, as it were, of acres and acres, just so he could put you and your sort in one tiny corner?
A bit egotistic of you, no?

Humm? Why did 503 get pulled? Did somebody object to the word "idiot"? I guess it was the idea of such petty gods as these idiots engender. Humm, who would have known? Is it Phaedrus or one of her alteregos?

Those were examples of how God tests people's faith. The entire book is about God letting Satan test a person's faith.

Maybe we should start our own Evolution/Creation forum so that we can do this all the time? Maybe bring some friends, invite others, send out SPAM to get participants...just a thought.
Good idea. We could call it Creation/Evolution: The Eternal Debate. :-)

And I always thought it's because of his inordinate fondness for beetles ;)
