    Are chimpanzees and humans the same kind?

    That is because creationists don't really care where they draw the line as to what composes a kind other than that humans are always one single-species kind. Always remember that they are starting with a conclusion and making their definitions fit that conclusion.

    Does it Matter that Hitler was a Theist?

    It only matters when people try and claim he was an atheist and this "fact" supports their "atheists are bad" argument.

    Noah's Ark

    But it would have been fatal for almost all marine fish species for example, which is just another problem with the global flood story. Oh, that and the death of all coral reef ecosystems. Yes we do if you are talking about a few thousand years ago.

    Some of the oldest living things on earth

    So Genesis is lying about how long people can live then? Who'da thunk the bible would contradict itself.

    Why these forums help a misconception

    Sorry but creationism is not solely about the origin of life itself in its original form (which is what Abiogenesis covers). Creationism is also about the origin of the diversity of species that exist today and that is exactly what Evolution covers.

    The assumption of evolution can cause problems

    The problem with your argument is that you are using the creationist definition of vestigial and not the scientific one. So, as usual, you are wrong from the start. Vestigial does not mean "aren't used or needed and a leftover from evolution" and even Darwin did not use that meaning for it.

    Irreducible complexity exists - cannot be refuted

    Thats pretty funny coming from someone who just said "improbable that they all happened by chance" without providing any statistics.

    Some questions about evolution.

    Evolution is an observable fact and claiming otherwise is either a flat-out denial of reality or a display of breathtaking ignorance. Every year the flu virus evolves, the allele frequencies of populations change over time, that fact cannot be argued. Of course it may be that you still fail to...

    Guided Evolution as Exclaimed by the Quran

    So you haven't heard of Hafs and Warsh then?

    Guided Evolution as Exclaimed by the Quran

    In that case I have some bad news for you. There are 5 versions of the Quran in use today in different parts of the world. In the past there were up to 20 different versions.

    I believe that Jesus is a conservative.

    Well Abortion was allowed in the OT, as long as a priest did it. So one would assume that Jesus would be okay with it.

    Evolution has never been observed

    Wrong. We know that evolution is a fact because its observable. It happens. We accept the Theory of Evolution because it is supported by mountains of evidence. We don't accept the existence of God because there is no evidence for the existence of God and there is evidence that refutes the...

    How Many Kinds On Earth?

    So what you are saying is the evolution has definitely occurred and at a vastly accelerated rate from that which science proposes :) Also didn't the clean animal come in 7s rather than pairs?

    There is no struggle...

    Then you would generally be incorrect in your thinking because science usually disproves literal readings of religious texts when it comes to subjects related to science. Neither the Torah, the Bible or the Quran contain any "scientific knowledge" that was not already current thought at the...

    Evolution has never been observed

    Because we are not trying to play semantic tricks to try and deny the validity of physical evidence and avoid addressing the real issues. Merely by saying that something is "a central idea" it means that here are other ideas that may or may not be central. In the same manner the reason that...

    Athiest...Evolution Question...

    Matter can be created and destroyed using the commonly used classical definition of matter. While matter is energy in another form you can certainly create and destroy matter using the classical definition by converting it from or to energy. As an example when electrons and positrons (which are...

    The Strange Thing about Creationism

    I think you don't know what an extremophile is. There are existing extremophile prokaryotic phototrophs (including cyanobactera) living in Antartica that survive under the increased UV levels due to the very thin ozone layer, in the summer the ozone layer over the antarctic can be less then 20%...

    The Strange Thing about Creationism

    Note the phrase "formed in the lower atmosphere". Unfortunately for you not all lightning occurs in the lower atmosphere and the ozone that results when nitrogen dioxide produced by lightning is broken down by sunlight can last a long time. Source: Lightning: FAQ

    Natural vs Supernatural

    Pretty much every single large scale natural phenomena goes on the first list. Can't think of anything for the second one offhand.
