    Here's how it works out.
    There are a variety of peacocks. Some peacocks have amazing tails, others not so much. Predators spot the big colorful tails and eat the peacocks with those tails. They also eat the ones with less attractive tails, though not as frequently. The less attractive peacocks would be able to pass on their genes more frequently, when considering only this factor.

    On the other hand, peacocks with huge tails are a sign of good genes/health to peahens. Peahens choose these peacocks to mate with more frequently than with the less colorful peacocks. The colorful peacocks are able to pass on their genes more frequently in this case.

    So as you can see, these two factors, as well as many others, determines which peacocks survive and pass on their genes and which do not. Now we have to ask: which factors are more dominant? These factors are the ones that will determine which evolutionary path the animal takes. In the case of peacock, the factors favor colorful tails more than plainer ones, therefore, peacocks retain their colorful tails.
    Isn't it more likely that God created peacocks tails to demonstrate his existence? It's completely useless apart from being pretty to humans.

    Thank you God for making the world beautiful and supplying it with animals for our entertainment. Praise the Lord.

    I'll believe it when I see it. Atheists have no morals so I'm sure it won't be long before it's logic this and why that...

    Why should we give you examples.

    You are the one attempting to debunk our faith. You give us examples where the Bible (KJV 1611) does not correlate to your idea of the physical world.

    Please note that any and all references you make must be in relation to the KJV 1611 Holy Bible. This is due to the fact that this is the only text we use.

    Obviously, you don't.
    Eh.. restrained has a negative connotation.
    Let's just say you can't.
    I 'don't know my place', so I can and will, even though, in your view, I shouldn't.

    Well, technically, it is faith. I have been able to logically understand most scientific concepts I know of, so I assume that the findings of science are almost always logical. Now, is assuming that really that logical? The answer is no. So no, faith isn't a logical explanation.

    Oh, come on now, everyone knows this one. Because of Adam and Eve, they messed up and now we all have to pay the price.

    I definitely did not do that. You all don't like logic anyway, so why would it matter that faith isn't considered a logical explanation(to atheists)?

    Sorry, I am not demanding anyone to abandon their faith.

    Psalm 101:6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

    Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

    Matthew 8:26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

    Matthew 9:29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

    Matthew 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

    Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
