Midnight Blue :
So find the pertinent quote/ text ( where he says this ) rather than keep on insisting that you're right/ you heard it through a friend / a friend of a friend/ blah blah blah...all based on NO documentation.
Even if Darwin claimed to be an agnostic and not an atheist (...
Yossarian :
Hmmm you're about as good at assigning odds as most self-proffessed statisticians :)
My Tip would be to remove that oversized gemstone from your gullet tout suite Kemosabey. Don’t wanna swallow and make it come out the other end :)
FYI Yossarian... IDers/Creationists...
Christine :
I’m not desperate to prove anything ! I backed up my assertions about Darwin’s atheism with quotes from Darwin himself, which I contend lend credence to what I’m saying...If anyone seems desperate to prove anything, based on NO EVIDENCE that would be you...
Crystalonyx :
Evolution/ the dynamic/ ever changing nature of the entire cosmos IS on solid ( neigh irrefutable ) ground....BUT ...Darwinism/ Darwinian evolution is as full of holes as Swiss Cheese + it stinks to high heaven ! :)
Midnight Blue :
Really ? Kindly, Show me some evidence to support this conclusion. I say you're talking through your hat/ spouting Nonsense !
Darwin is essentially implying here that all causes have rational/ naturalistic/ materialist explanations ( known or unknown). That NOTHING is the...
So why do all phylum appear suddenly, with no signs of pre-existing transitional species ?
When it comes to phylum....THERE ARE ZERO / ZILTCH/ NADA CONNECTING DOTS !!!
doesn't make a pretty picture for Darwinists now does it ? :)
Storm :
First : Are you implying that all challenges to Darwinism outside of the mainstream/conventional science orthodoxy/dogma are ILLEGITIMATE ?
Second ( and to answer your question ) : NO... punctuated equilibrium would NOT qualify...Lamarckian evolution ( which predates Darwinism )...
ChristineES :
Man I was harried/ pressed for time during my earlier response to this statement...In hindsight, I can’t believe I let you get away with it unchallenged ...
Leading up to , and following his 1859 authorship of ‘ The origin of species ( blah blah blah )’...
Au contraire THERE ARE A GREAT MANY MORE HOLES in evolutionary biologists supposedly neatly drawn phylogenetic family trees than the public is aware of...nothing but holes in fact
Seyorni :
Always ? I think your spouting nonsense...BTW convergent evolution might also be explained by...
Seyorni :
Darwin did not invent the notion of natural selection...and even creationists would agree that the more fit a creature is , the more likely it will survive/ reproduce...BUT Darwin went on to claim that simple Natural Selection would suffice to give rise to completely novel...
So its technically a fish eh ? But it's head looks kinda like a crocodile according to some ? Ho hum. I know a fish whose head looks kinda like a horse . Ever heard of a seahorse ? Wonder if the early equines were aquatic ? :)
By the by.... a bat looks kinda like both a mouse and a bird ? So...
Turnabout is fair play...So what have Darwinists ever said ( about biological evolution ? about species origins ? about abiogenesis ? about phylogenesis/ evolutionary ‘ family trees’ ? etcetera ) that is scientifically verifiable/ proven/ demonstrably true ????
I'll try to find the...
Note to Yossarian : Ill try to apply myself to devising a more sophisticated probabilistic model vis a vis amino acids / proteins Abiogenesis/ prebiotic blind evolution ( or at least try to research mathematicians/ scientists who have done so )......plus respond to ur numerous ( as of yet...
Camanintx :
Biologist speak freely of the ‘ DNA code,’ or the ‘ language of Dna’ and for a very good reason... Because that’s precisely what it is, there’s NO dispute about that. There’s a vast amount of information contained in Dna/ Rna... And that...

YmirGF:
Muslims ???....Ah yes ...Guilt by association...what a clever ( read undignified and completely crass ) response ...I think I’ve made it abundantly clear that I’m NO KIND of religious fundamentalist...I’ve described myself as a ‘ panentheist sans...
Sorry but I want to re-cap , before responding to some of the latest posts ( which btw... I havent even read yet/ too many distractions/ pressed for time...I WILL ! )
Ok ...DEJA VU TIME :
Yossarian
Ah Yes...It was u Yossarian who was doing all the cheap/trash talking earlier...Id quite...
Mestemia:
Au contraire...as per usual u misconstrue what I’m saying ( purposely, or simply due to a lack of understanding ? ) I believe in Evolution remember ?...An INTELLIGENT EVOLUTION...A PURPOSEFUL EVOLUTION...But NOT in THE Un-intelligent/blind/Spontaneous/ Darwinian EVOLUTION OF...
It's NOT hard to imagine ? How so? You've only reference a scenario wherein an INTELLIGENT scientist provides a mechanism for achieving left handed AA bias...Yup, A smart scientist can make amino acids in his lab yawn...the Creator can do that in his lab too :)
You haven't explained how AA's...
Camanintx :
Really ? what's death/ extinction then ? :)
How would u know when the letters were in the correct place Kemosabey ? Darwinism is supposed to work blindly/ be underpinned by RANDOM mutations...the scenario ur suggesting would require an INTELLIGENT Analysis...As it happens , I...
Hela
Yossarian:
What nonsense. First off , its the Darwinian hypothesis which depends on randomness/blind evolution for Abiogenesis . So take umbrage with Charles D et al. for that ....not me... I believe in an Intelligent / purposeful evolution underpinned by the Creator. Indeed this is...
