Then you had the piltdown man fraud… fraud begets fraud. So when evolution is looked at critically it’s rejected and exposed.
Oh my! Are you totally unaware of the Christian frauds out there? By your poor reasoning Christianity has been debunked a thousandfold.
Oh my! You lose when you use a lying source
Were the photos doctored? Yes
Once again you used a lying source. All you "prove" is your own gullibility when you do that.
No, they were claimed to be doctored. Real moths, but dead ones, were used to show how they look on a limb of a tree. That is not "doctoring".
Haekel’s fake drawings? Nice try brother at least admit to the fraud
What makes you think that they were a fraud. They weren't. There was only one or two photos that he duplicated when facing a deadline on his book. They were corrected in later editions and made no difference.
Do you have any evidence that I am a Christian? If so what evidence do you have?
But organisms don't necessarily become more complex. Complexity is metabolically and socially costly. Organisms simplify whenever practical.
No, you would not. Organisms don't become 'better' overall, just better adapted to current conditions.
It's always been an evolutionary arms race. Any early organisms that were fragile of poorly adapted died out.
You have continually claimed to be one and that statement of yours was reasonable. There is nothing wrong with being a Christian. The problem is when one at best misinterprets the Bible. Refuting the myths of Genesis. does not refute Christianity. It only refutes mistaken versions of Christianity.
This is stupid, uninformed propaganda you picked up on some Christian site, probably the same one you got your "embryo fraud" nonsense from.
There is a good book on biblical hermeneutics by Kevin Connor. The purpose of biblical hermeneutics is to use certain principles to find out what the writer of the scriptures meant by what they wrote. Some things are literal, some things were how they appear for example we say today sunrise and sunset. Would a scientist say sunrise or sunset ? Or would he say good morning the earth just made another rotation? Some things are parables, some allegory. The first thing to understanding is being filled with the Spirit of God.
Why were the fake embryo pictures in classroom
And what if the base of that hermeneutics is false or irrational? Too many practitioners of hermeneutics assume that the God that they want to believe in is what the Bible was about.
There are no fake embryo pictures in textbooks. What makes you think that was the case. Once again, Haeckel was pressed for time when the first edition of his book came out. In a couple of the illustrations at most he did not complete brand new illustrations for different species. And one more time, that was corrected in later editions. He did not rely on fraud at all.
Why did you abuse the funny rating? You do know that is against the rules.. It is rather sad that you do not understand what you are arguing against at all and you cannot even defend your own beliefs. Kevin Conner (note spelling) appears to be well respected only because he was good at saying what others wanted him to say. I can find his method clearly outlined on the internet. I am interest in seeing it so that I can understand why you believe that you can interpret the Bible better than scholars can.
