Nobody is stopping you from believing that your daddy is the "Great Ape". Believe that all you want. I believe I was created in the image and glory of God as a man, and that everything I do is for the glory of Him!
I'd rather have small pox than believe in evolution. Your hatred for the gospel is astounding. How can such a small amount of people, that reject creation, bring out the worst in the "Great Ape" community! Nothing but snid comments and hostility, amazing. Evolution is a cop out, and nothing short of it. There are 100 trillion questions left for evolution and the Darwinists to answer in their 160 yr. old riddled theory. Who is promoting such close minded thinking? How is this possilbe that a full 3% of the population would stick to their guns with little or no evidence! |
What came first the chicken or the egg?
How do plants exist without bugs in the soil, and bugs in the soil without plants producing oxygen?
There are no atheists in foxholes
Underlying the evolutionary theory is not just the classic "stuff" of science — conclusions arrived at through prolonged observation and experimentation. Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. II Timothy 4:3,4
II Thess. 2:11 And for this cause God shall
send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
You can not see the 'wind', but you can see its effect!!!!
Evolution was caused by genetic mistakes at each stage?
Radical Evolution has 500 million years to find fossils of fictional drawings of (hard core)missing links, yet they find none.
We have not seen such moral darkness since the dark ages, coencides with
teaching evolution in schools. (Moral darkness)
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places, EPH 6:12.
"Thus, many scientists embracing naturalism find themselves in the seeming dilemma recently articulated by biochemist Franklin Harold: "We should reject, as a matter of principle, the substitution of intelligent design for the dialogue of chance and necessity [i.e., Darwinian evolution]; but we must concede that there are presently no detailed Darwinian accounts of the evolution of any biochemical system, only a variety of wishful speculations."

Snide is often witty, not hostility. It might evoke hostility in the unenlightened evangelical-political pseudo religious.

It's a theory based on facts. A "cop=out" is more like blind faith based on superstition, you know, like religion for example.

Yes. And that's what is great about science. As soon as a question gets answered, another pops up.
Of course, religion and philosophy can have unanswered questions too, but the folks who try and answer them run the risk of censorship, punishment, or even burning or crucifixion.

Religious dogma allows them to live in a dream world where God takes care of everything and they can point fingers and cast blame on the free thinkers, liberals, other religions, (i.e. the "meek") who will inherit the Earth.

If you interpret "daddy" as strictly litteral instead of meaning "ancestor", then yes it is a strawman. When I originally read it, I thought that meaning was implied.
I took it literal, I mean if verlch takes the Bible that literal I think I should be able to take his statements as such.  |

Well, even with a liberal interpretation of the word 'daddy', it's a strawman due to the fact that current evolutionary theory only claims that great apes and humans had a common ancestor, not that we evolved from any of the living ape species, which is implied by the original comment. |

What Dave_W said. The idea that humans "come from apes" is a deliberate misrepresentation, hence a straw-man.

Verlch, as I and others have shown in a long-ago thread, the inscription on James ossuary was a fraud, the 'brother of jesus' part counterfit. And at my last reading, some time ago, I'll admit, the cave in question might or might not have sheltered Johnny the Bap. Let us not jump to conclusions lest they lead down a hole.
I am perfectly willing to accept the probable existance of a rabbi named Jesus. Most likely, there were quite a few of them as the name was not uncommon in that age and place. I am further willing to accept that this rabbi had a handful of loyal diciples and a pretty good following of the populace -- all of this can be seen in modern-day cults such as ICR and AiG. Also, I think that it is certainly possible that this rabbi, who people listened to, pissed the authorities off enough that they hauled him into court with the storied results, more or less.
What I do not accept is the 'Son of God sent to save everybody by dying for everybody,' tripe.
So where does that leave us? Why, it leaves us back where we started; Jesus and J the B existed -- so what? We have yet to prove the existance of God(s) and until we do, the whole thing is just another fable-turned-to-ledgend.

You're probably right. We have these same type of people at Live Wire. Usually about six of us just flame them and they leave. Doesn't look like that's going to happen here.
