Sheesh... you think people use carbon dating? Get your facts straight. Scientists claim to use use radiometric dating, not carbon dating. (Radiometric dating is just as innacurate as carbon dating, but it sounds more 'scientific' which is why they thought it would fool us all.) It must be embarrassing that you don't know anything about the theory you have been brainwashed to believe in. What does it feel like to have a TrueChristian™ know more about your own misguided myths than you do? What else do you have wrong in your misunderstanding of your own superstitions?

Carbon dating is a form of Radiometric dating, my friend. It's hilarious that you've just lectured me about you knowing more about my beliefs than I do when you are so EASILY proved wrong. ONE CLICK was all it couldve taken not to make yourself look like a fool. But you couldnt even go to that trouble.

But none of those books were written by God, unlike the Bible.

Before you comment, why not read everything I've said, hm? And the BIble WAS written by men, which you would know if you'd every read a history of the making of the bible.

Nonono, there are other fish that god made with both amphibian and fish characteristics, but he made them all at the same time, remember? It most definitely IS a loophole. Even if we were just misconstruing the evidence, it does not change the FACT that "God" practically handed us exactly what we needed to disprove you. I ask you again, why did he do that?

He didn't make them at the same time. He made the birds and fish in Genesis 1:21 and the beasts that walk the earth in Genesis 1:24. Judging by your pictures, the tiktaalik can walk and swim. If it was the first animal to be able to do so, the logical explanation is that He created it at Genesis 1:21 and the other ones at Genesis 1:24. It's not disproving anything. The only thing it's disproving is that you have any sense.

You STILL ignore that he GAVE US a way out! I'll ask you one more time, WHY? And no, that is not the LOGICAL explanation. That is the BIBLICAL explanation.

Re: Should Evolution be Taught in Schools?

Your ignorance is staggering. We Dont just study the BOOK Origin of Species, we can actually find material, fossil, chemical EVIDENCE in the REAL WORLD and draw conclusions from it.

That's what we do with the Bible, too. Look at the beauty of God's creation. Look how finely tuned the universe is for human life. Look at the effectiveness of prayer. Look at all teh miracles we experience on a daily basis. No one can see all of this evidence for God and think that the Bible is not the true word of God.

And yes, it has changed over and over again, and that is a GOOD thing.

Heh. Next you will tell me that anything that changes over time is a GOOD thing. Even morality?

As new data comes in, we change the theory to fit what we know reality to be, so there is no contradictions to what is actually true.

So you admit that you change your belief structure to whatever is convenient based on what others think on any given day?

If a piece of evidence came in that disproved evolution (which hasn't yet occured)

ORLY? Ever heard of something called the Cambrian Explosion? Ever hear of the second law of thermodynamics? Ever hear of irreducibly complex systems? Want me to go on, or shall I Google it for you?

The fact that the Bible is constant is WEAKNESS. It is stagnation, an unchanging belief that contradicts modern day morals and science and reality, and doesn't care.

And there you have it. Moral relativism. This is what is at the core of evolutionists. They have no moral grounding and think morals are different depending on circumstances. This is why your cities are filled with disease, suffering, and crime. No morals = banishment form God's love. What more evidence do you need?

You are simply incredible. Your utter stupidity and denial of facts is unbelievable.

If you had every heard of String Theory, you would realize that the universe is NOT fine tuned. Prayer has been PROVEN to have little to no effect. We experience NO miracles, EVER.
YES. Changes in morality is GOOD. Such as the general acceptance of homosexuals. It disturbs me that the church has to be dragged kicking and screaming to the next level of kindness.
I do NOT change my beliefs based on OPINIONS, I base them on FACTS, which i KNOW to be TRUE. Why would I believe something that is untrue?
True, the cambrian explosion is doubtful, but either it will be explained, or evolution will be discarded, and either way, I will change my beliefs to fit REALITY. If you did ANY research, and had any common sense, you would know that the Second Law of thermodynamics only works in a closed system, which Earth is not. WE HAVE THE SUN. Irreducibly complex systems were DISPROVED in 2005.
And hey, next time, why not link to some UNBIASED sites, hm? Or have you realized that your beliefs are so obviously untrue that you cant DO that without your ignorance being obvious?

Yes, yes, and wickedpedia is an "unbiased source," right?

Were you aware that literally anyone can go in and deface the information posted on that site? Trusting wickedpedia is like eating soup from a colander; Not a good idea.

By the way, this is a Christian forum. We are not even slightly interested in your hateful unsaved ranting and raving. Our church proudly follows the Holy KJV Bible word for word, which is why we sport a banner that states "UNSAVED = UNWELCOME."

Re: Should Evolution be Taught in Schools?

Actually, there could be something to this evolution idea. For example, I got no reason to disagree that negroes evolved from apes and monkeys. Or maybe it was the other way around, that apes and monkeys evolved from negroes.





See any resemblance?

But white people were created directly by God, just as it says in the Bible!

yours in Christ,

You that 'looking at a banana' is such a huge effort so as to call it "the extent to which religious people will go?" If simply looking at a banana is such an effort for people like you, I guess evolution was invented by sitting around and making stuff up?

Re: Should Evolution be Taught in Schools?

So now there are six gaps in the fossil record? No wonder evolution is a Theory in Crises®. What will it be next week; eight gaps?

The fact is as a TRUE Christian I refuse to believe in magic. I find it hard to believe that there was some fish swimming in the sea and some invisible, all encompassing force operating on a time scale far beyond human comprehension metaphorically waved it's magic wand and then "poof", the little fish has legs. I want hard facts, not conjuncture based on speculation over something written in some old book like you Darwnist do.

DId you honestly say you dont believe in magic? And things that can't be fully explained? You won't believe in "invisible" things?

Magic is only allowed by God. The rest is of satan. Wake up and smell the coffee.

Ex.4:2-6
And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod. And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it. And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand. ...
And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous as snow. And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again as his other flesh.

Num.5:27
And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot.

Num.21:8-9
And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole:and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.
