It doesn't matter if you can't quote the source in this situation. So Darwin said 'from these simple BEGINNINGS...' does nothing to establish or support your preconceived notion that Darwin thought all life and all nature was exceedingly simple. In fact if you were capable of reading and...
I would use the word "build" or "construct" rather than "create." Nothing is created. As far as growing water plants I'm not sure I follow you? Are you saying they practice aquaculture in some way like growing rice, or lilly pads. What water plants are you aware of that they grow?
Horses can’t be animals because they can’t be saddled. I never saw a Grizzly running around with a saddle. I never saw fish swimming around with a saddle. Rabbits are a little bit different. They can’t be animals because they can sing opera and had the first representatives in space land on...
I’m not familiar with the photo or certain of its veracity. But it honestly wouldn’t surprise me. Even birds (Woodpecker Finch) make and use tools to spear insects in cracks and under bark. I have to wonder if the orangutans time amongst humans taught it to pay attention and learn, did it learn...
No that’s not a problem with my argument. You thinking that’s a problem with my argument is a problem with your thinking and an indication of your lack of understanding.
How do you know that no other animal has any concept of living forever or an afterlife? Many species have exhibited behavior consistent with mourning for weeks after losing one of their offspring or a mate. Even elephants unrelated to a dead elephant have demonstrated behavior consistent with...
LOL I’m sorry but this just cracks me up. I know there are plenty of people that argue from the position of their conclusion in order to support a biased interpretation of the evidence. I just didn’t expect such prominent examples of it on a debate forum. I guess I’ll just have to get used to...
This is not my belief but teachings from well established Abrahamic religions that I’m familiar as well as supported in biblical writings. God is good. PERIOD! I.e. A thing is good because God says it is good. A man is righteous because he obeys the commandments of God. Good is objective, not...
No they can’t. Do you have a pertinent point to make? Are we really reduced to this level of (nonexistent) logic?
One of my professors told me many years ago, if two people are having a conversation, and they have different definitions for the same term, they are not communicating, they are...
You have a very narrow minded definition of “animal” which is specifically designed to support a conclusion you reached before you ever decided to construct your own personal definition of animal. By any and all biological definition of the term “animal,” man is certainly an animal.

Do you mind providing sources? I’ve read almost all of Darwin’s public writings and many of his private correspondence including with Huxley. I see nothing but rubbish it in your postulates. Again why would anybody debate with someone absent of knowledge of the subject?
