Evolution & Creationism are both Faith & Supernatural based

I would not worry too much about anything he posts and questioning it. He is just the next creationist rehashing ancient claims, yet again. And widely refuted claims at that.

He thinks he has found something new that debunks evolution. If he was actually interested in discussing some of these claims instead of preaching then demanding we believe, it might be worthwhile.

What is interesting to me is why people believe the young earth creationist nonsense. The likes of Ham are in it for financial gain but the only reason I can think of for the average person falling for it is that they are worried about losing their immortality. The old carrot/stick incentive.,,, believe and live forever, don't believe and be punished forever.

The motivations must be many, but that surely is one of them. Anything that requires fear as a criteria for acceptance must surely be something good, loving and merciful.

Some are so indoctrinated that they truly believe and, for them, debunking even one word in the Bible means their entire belief system falls apart. Imagine that. In science, if you debunk one thing, 50,000 scientists start researching in a new direction to be the first to find out. Science does not rest on anything being absolute. Christians do not have to rest on that either, but fundamentalists think they do.

I know that fundies are often derisive of the fact that science is tentative, but it is a major strength that promotes continual review and further research and experimentation. Findings that lead to the rejection of an idea in science do not cause the scientists to give up their trade. Very much the opposite. I see fundie faith as weak. If all it takes is debunking some minor detail, I think their values have become misdirected and their belief is in a book and not in God.

YEC has no value that I can see, except as a "don't let this happen to you" cautionary tale.

For all the reading they must do, the run of the mill creationist must never read science or the history of their own claims. Every new one that I meet brings the same tired, widely refuted claims and--few--arguments to the table. It is like listening to thousands of different versions of the same song performed by thousands of different amateurs and performed as it the song had never before been played for an audience.

The Day that honors those that gave the ultimate for us to enjoy what no other country has.

Eh? What has your country got that Britain, Australia, Canada, New Zealand (or many others) doesn't?

Sadly Dems & leftist want to take it all away. .

Got evidence of this? Even though I'm Australian I have a step daughter and son-in-law both recently retired from the U.S. Airforce, 18 deployments between the 2 of them and both are democrats. So if you can't provide evidence I expect you'll be making an apology for spreading false news lies?

As I've said before but you continually ignore to do because it can't be done because it's impossible.

Sans what evolution says. Show me a real life example in history or present day where any functional Design ever occurred by Random trial & error w/o Intelligent Designer.

Same question for a computer program. See like DNA is except it repairs itself & reproduces itself & it's even 3D & can be read in. multiple directions. You can't do that either. Yet you claim you can't find any " rational" or "evidence". That certainly exposes your bias & your lack of honest research.

That's fine. You have the individual right to let bias agenda run your life. The exception is when you state its done by an academic honesty which you've proven its nothing of the sort.

Once you can prove to me real life situations like I've said then I'll believe macro evolution is possible. Micro is proven but it's a just so story that it builds up leading to macro. See your problem is evolution scientist hide so much of the truth from you you never hear it. You never hear how they pick & choice results they let out. They are so dishonest & that's not counting the proven frauds they still use to teach it.

Heck there have been so many experiments generating 50,000 & more of species directed by evolution & even with adaptations they never become anything besides what they originally are.

You see the same thing when using genetics to develop corn., wheat, roses dogs etc. You never get another species.

Miller- Usery was is a proven fraud. Funnier is as they've tried to create life with all their INTELLIGENT DESIGN those evolution scientist still can't produce life in the perfect lab setting but yet can snuggly tell us how it was created in an in perfect atmosphere which can't produce it now!!

Wake up out of your evolutionary programming & honestly look. But odds are you won't as you've continually proven. Your biased agenda & esp atheism is too important. Funny thing is. That doesn't determine truth.

Logic & common sense in experiments to show me the foundations evolution are built on is possible can't be done. But you refuse to see & admit the obvious. That's a sad commentary.
Please explain in great detail, what you are talking about, and provide examples.
Thanks in advance.

Miller-Urey is not a "proven fraud," whatever that means. LOL

Keep ignoring all the refutations of your "arguments" though. Go ahead and show us who the close-minded ones are. ;)

So says your totally unbiased opinion. But in actuality. It's casting pearls when you start a conversation with people whose minds are so closed they won't even look at the other sides science. You claim it doesn't have. Yet that's bias not due to actual study.

It's like having a jury trial but only allowing oneself to hear the side you've predetermined to decide for regardless. Pointless to do the rest. It's not a test of truth just bias agenda. That never determines truth nor ever will.

Some day you will find yourself staring at the truth & have no excuse because it's plainly evident regardless of one's unwillingness to look at it. To look at FUNCTIONAL DESIGN & not acknowledge that always takes an Intelligent Designer is beyond common sense & reason & all of life's experience looking back at you in the mirror & you refusing to see what's so plainly obvious. That's also why evolution is so Faith & Supernatural based. For it not to have occurred by an Intelligent Designer takes more Faith & Supernatural than my common sense & reason does to acknowledge that plain truth. I'll go to some other thread where hopefully they actually search for truth with open mind & not close off everything except their biased agenda.
No evolution is more believable because of good observation and good science rather than imagination.

You know why in this case it's not like a trial with a jury. It's because you refuse to look at & read the other sides science arguments. Don't give me all your excuses I've heard em for many yrs.

In debates a good one knows both sides so well if the teacher suddenly asked the debaters to change sides. They could do it because they know the others material so well. Your problem is you think you do but don't at all & I'll prove it to you.

The one key thing evolution MUST have is millions & billions of years. I know how they cherry pick age results & filter out anything contrary to the biased agenda. Plus they also have it already preset to fit in their parameters & force fit if need be.

What's really throwing them now is finding tissue with blood in dinosaurs, name started in 1800's, were called dragons before that time which you find in ancient writings, paintings etc. Which are perfect representations of something that supposedly died off 65 million yrs before mankind appeared. That does cause a dating problem for you big time. But you always use your cover up strategies & instead of going honestly where the science leads. Your bias leads.

Anyway that was an aside.

How thoroughly have you actually covered the science that backs up a young earth? I mean seriously. Not mockingly. My bet is none at all. My bet is you couldn't give much less describe hardly if any of those science points. Which means you haven't thoroughly researched the subject & esp since its so key. There is one article that has put in one place 101 evidences for a young earth. Also within that article & each point are links to other articles to further enhance ones ability to understand what they are saying in more ways. It isn't written in deep scientific jargon to confuse the avg reader. But written so the avg reader can understand it. That should be the goal always for a writer. Not to write so to impress colleague's with verbose language but everyday reader can understand the points being made.

I'd list the article. But you aren't interested in reading it or studying it for real honest academic research. Plus if you want to find it. You can search for & find it. It's done by creation.com or creationministriesinternational

A couple of my favorites are about how the diamond on one's special others hand is proof of young earth. Plus how MT St Helens explosion has helped validate Noahs. Flood. ICR has articles on that too.

There are many more. But I'm wasting my breath.

See I learned that about debate when it happened to me in my class once. I never forgot that lesson. So the problem is I've really read & studied your side. But your science wording shows it gives just so stories. It can't handle the rebuttals etc the other side has. You on the other hand haven't truly done what I have so you don't know.

We will see now if truly interested. My money is you aren't. I'll get attacked & you won't read info given for you to look for & read. Have a Blessed Sunday & Memorial Day. The Day that honors those that gave the ultimate for us to enjoy what no other country has. Sadly Dems & leftist want to take it all away. My Dad was WWII vet & he really taught me how to love & appreciate this country. Blessings to any of you who served &/or have had relatives that served & esp those that gave the ultimate gift. John 15:13.
Most of the people here are well read on your side that's why they are so aware of the inaccurate arguments you present. This is not just a classroom this is forum of people who have been presented with the best arguments that Intelligent design and creationists can produce and found the evidence why they are incorrect. Many of us have read the books, websites and seen the lectures in order to understand the argument correctly.
My dad was in world war 2 also fighting in the pacific. That has nothing to do with this argument and shows you are now trying to shift the argument to patriotic stance when your argument starts to fail.
 
You know what's truly funny. You ask a question that I answered but you refuse to look at. 101 scientific reasons for a young earth.

What's even worse. Your bias is so incompetent you make wild accusations you can't back up & are false because you refuse to read.

You actually seem to believe creation science is like a cult & their science isn't actual science. You act like they don't know & couldn't explain or teach photosynthesis & all these other processes exactly as they are. The same as you know them to be.

The difference is not in the science itself. It's in how it got here. We recognize the COMPLEX FUNCTIONAL DESIGN couldn't have happened by random trial & error. It has to have occurred by an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER! Just like everything else in life that is & has FUNCTIONAL DESIGN ALWAYS requires a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

That's the only difference in the actual science per se. We take the science where it actually leads.. We don't take people like as I said earlier I think Mary S something that first discover fossils of dinosaurs with soft tissue & blood proving youngness. Then she gets hammered by the SCIENCE ESTABLISHMENT to recant & not go where the science leads but toe the party line.

That's why many evolutionist have become creationist or signed that scientist dissent list. When their research was getting young earth results & THE ESTABLISHMENT threatens them & pulls grants to get them back in line. To them honesty in science was worth more than being bought off. Sadly many have succumbed to that pressure & been bought off.

That's not science. That biased Agenda run amok. You're so biased & naive you refuse the see the truth for what it is. That's truly sad. I've told you how they work, what their own words admit to. But you won't see it for yourself.

Then have the audacity to ask for the scientific reasons for young earth I've already given. But you won't read them.

So sad how you've been so brainwashed. That's exactly how the prof describes how he teaches evolution to this college students. He admits to teaching it by using propaganda, filtering information, using brainwashing techniques etc.

Yet even from their own mouths you stay brainwashed. That's how sad it truly is for you. Worse you actually think creationist don't teach or understand real science. When not only do we. We take it where it leads. We don't force it into a certain belief & discard anything else. Then force others to toe the line.

We just recognize the logic & common sense that it all had to come about by a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER like everything else in past present & future proves.

Creation science is self contradictory. It is like a married bachelor.

As any third grader with the slightest clue of the scientific methodology would confirm.

Provide the evidence and demonstrate it, then. Sheesh, what's taking you guys so long?

The rest of your post is just a repeat of the nonsense you've been posting over and over since the beginning of the thread, despite the fact that it's been addressed several times over.

You aren't following science where it leads. You're pushing and cramming it where you want it to go. That's not how you do science.
 
You know what's so sad. You're so brainwashed you refuse to see the obvious. See evolutionist already admit to using brainwashing, propaganda, filtered info, & just so stories. So that's not science.

It's logic & common sense that tells you FUNCTIONAL DESIGN requires an ID. Evolutionist say it only appears designed. The hole in that argument is so obvious. It FUNCTIONS just like it's designed to FUNCTION. Its not like taking Legos & making a big design of anything that looks designed. Although that in & of itself takes intelligent designer. It doesn't function. So it might be impressive design & take intelligence. It doesn't FUNCTION. What you see in creation is FUNCTIONAL DESIGN. It all FUNCTIONS just like it was DESIGNED to do. So it's far from just "appears". It's FUNCTIONAL DESIGN so to say it is just appears is a lie & pure misleading.

You can't give me one example in your life that you use that's FUNCTIONAL that wasn't DESIGNED by an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER. Your car, computer, TV. Everything you use. None of it could have occurred by Random trial & error. Yet Evolution tells us the COMPLEX FUNCTIONAL DESIGN found in CREATION occurred by Random trial & error. Just an example of another just so story.

There has never been a true scientific lab experiment to prove that foundation is possible. Not a one. Won't be either because it's impossible.

I've asked Engineers & Computer programmers all my life to give me just one example of any thing they've come across or worked on that didn't require an ID & that could have occurred by Random trial & error.

Not one has been able to. Yet I ask you believe the complexity of FUNCTIONAL DESIGN in processes found in Nature & Creation, RNA/DNA the science processes like photosynthesis & on & on could occur by random trial & error. Give me the basis as an Engineer or Programmer that gives validity to that belief. I don't mean evolution just so stories & all the frauds they've been caught doing to promote it. I mean real life science validating experiments that prove its possible.


See if you walk up on a cell phone you instantly recognize ID not evolution.

Creationist recognize what's plainly obvious. You on the other hand choose to ignore what's plainly obvious & worse claim to be academically superior when it's actually non sense & totally illogical & total bias that keeps you from looking at the real evidence!

Your entire argument rests on a single claims:

Function requires design.

For this argument to have any validity, you must provide proof that demonstrates the above claim. So, please prove that function requires design.

The difference is not in the science itself. It's in how it got here.

This is almost correct, well done. Creationists start with a conclusion and try to shoe horn the information into fitting that conclusion.

Sure, as long as you learn how to quote so we can figure out what the hell you are responding to.

Engineers and programmers are working on human designs. They clearly do not understand genetics and evolution enough from their specialty. Why on earth would you rely on them. Evolution is not entirely random or trial and error. There are random aspects and there are far more complex aspects
Genetic causes for variation
1. Genetic drift - random fluctuations due to chance alone
2. Cosmids, - bacterial recombination vector which can insert dna sequences
3. gene conversion, - recombination of a short segment of DNA without the exchange of flanking markers
4. Cross over - reciprocal exchange of DNA
5. Positive selection - natural selection favoring one genotype over another
6. Zinc finger - protein loop affecting DNA - binding
7. epigenetic - influences of methylation one stability or variability in gene expressions.
8. linkage disequilibrium - preferential association of allelic combinations of nearby genes
9. genetic interference. recombination event in one regions that affects occurrence in adjacent regions
10. behavioral selection
and many more ways to vary genetics.
Random events exist but not just random. You need to talk to evolutionary geneticists instead of engineers and programmers before making comments on subjects you do not understand.
 
What's so sad. You said I only used one argument. In this case it only takes one because it's kills evolution.

Talk about computers. Programs can't write themselves. If they could then you could prove that principle is possible by a scientific lab experiment by real science. Not by a just so story of evolution having to explain its existence & then saying w/o scientific lab experiment proof proving it can occur by random trial & error w/o intelligence & FUNCTIONAL DESIGN which totally makes a difference. Not only that. It's more complex than any human has devised by INTELLIGENT DESIGN. Plus it corrects itself, reproduces itself. Is 3D & can be read in multiple directions.

But you actually believe by FAITH W/O ANY SCIENTIFIC LAB EXPERIMENT PROOF that it could write itself by itself w/o INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

See that's the difference between you & my Y workout partner for 2 yrs that challenged me to the debate with 2 Dr.s in Engineering.

He was as biased as you. The biggest difference was we set up ground rules & he flowed them. He was an honest academic despite his bias. As a 2 Dr Engineer, He really understood how things work & the rules of Design & Functionality.

Why it only took 3 days or 1 week to defeat evolution & have him accept ID. He knew how things really work. Once confronted with the realities like never before. He had to admit it was so logical & with so much common sense & he knew immediately there was no examples in life of past present or future where FUNCTIONAL DESIGN could or would occur by random trial & error but would always like past, present & in future require an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

You just refuse to be honest or logical or allow common sense.

He did I respected him for that. Sure we had much more ground to cover over the next 2 yrs. Which we did. Yet Evolution vs ID was the easiest & simplest thing we ever did.

It's sad that were he alive today. We're he able to get on this thread. His knowledge & background, as does the scientist on the Dissent List, so overwhelm you. He'd be embarrassed for you at letting your bias so overwhelm your common sense logic & misunderstanding that creation science is exactly the same science but just recognizes that it's origins requires an ID & in no way could all the FUNCTIONAL DESIGN arise from trial & error by random natural selection.

Genetics doesn't gain new information. It only selects from what's already been provided by original INTELLIGENT DESIGNER. Mutations are almost always deadly or make it sterile. Isn't it interesting that with all the genetics known today. No new species are formed by our Intelligent humans. Corn, wheat, roses etc always remain that despite being genetically formed for certain traits.

Same with diseases as the mutate & change. They don't become a new species. They are same just. adapted. Adapted from original info which was already there. Already in original program.

They've done experiments with 50,000 & more etc of many types yet never become new species.

See evolution can't explain the arrival of the original info by random trial & error. FUNCTIONAL DESIGN ALWAYS requires a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER.

I've given as was asked to provide science proofs of young earth. I do so. But all it did was expose you & your bias is always supreme. You don't want real answers. You just want to play pseudo smart while beating your bully pulpit w/o having to do real reading & research.

I won't be your object any more. You've proven my point. You don't want answers. When you get you won't look at them & then avoid the points I made when asking for just ONE example of FUNCTIONAL DESIGN that occurred w/o an ID involved. Only caveat. Evolutions admissions to brainwashing, propaganda, filtering & use of just so stories mean it elimates you using any of those.

You must use an actual scientifically validated lab experiment proving FUNCTIONAL DESIGN can occur w/o ID. Or same with Computer program. In other words. They Design or Program themselves by themselves w/o any person of ID being involved.

With evolutions history of proven frauds. It must be validated & repeatable like true science does it.

Until you can actually do that. You're wasting my time, since it fails in common sense & logic unless by miracles or supernatural it happens.

I'll be waiting. So until you provide this. I doubt you'll hear back. As evolutionist also admitted to. They teach it w/o actual science demonstration. That makes logic & common sense since it can't be done in reality. All they have is innuendo & the rest & so many just so stories.

Please wake up before too late. You must realize they've taught you WHAT to THINK & not HOW to THINK!

That's why you struggle with this common sense & logic. It requires ability to know ZHOW to THINK & esp CRITICAL ANALYSIS. Evolution flunks that big time!

Why would anyone be convinced by someone who has told untruths like "democrats and leftists want to take away memorial day? Why would anyone be convinced someone who can't figure out how to work a simple internet forum? Why would anyone be convinced by someone whose poor spelling and grammar make their posts virtually unintelligible.

All the points have been countered on dozens of websites and by replies on the forum.

This website is a great place to start, section CI covers ID... An Index to Creationist Claims

What's so sad. You said I only used one argument. In this case it only takes one because it's kills evolution.

Talk about computers. Programs can't write themselves. If they could then you could prove that principle is possible by a scientific lab experiment by real science. Not by a just so story of evolution having to explain its existence & then saying w/o scientific lab experiment proof proving it can occur by random trial & error w/o intelligence & FUNCTIONAL DESIGN which totally makes a difference. Not only that. It's more complex than any human has devised by INTELLIGENT DESIGN. Plus it corrects itself, reproduces itself. Is 3D & can be read in multiple directions.

But you actually believe by FAITH W/O ANY SCIENTIFIC LAB EXPERIMENT PROOF that it could write itself by itself w/o INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

See that's the difference between you & my Y workout partner for 2 yrs that challenged me to the debate with 2 Dr.s in Engineering.

He was as biased as you. The biggest difference was we set up ground rules & he flowed them. He was an honest academic despite his bias. As a 2 Dr Engineer, He really understood how things work & the rules of Design & Functionality.

Why it only took 3 days or 1 week to defeat evolution & have him accept ID. He knew how things really work. Once confronted with the realities like never before. He had to admit it was so logical & with so much common sense & he knew immediately there was no examples in life of past present or future where FUNCTIONAL DESIGN could or would occur by random trial & error but would always like past, present & in future require an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

You just refuse to be honest or logical or allow common sense.

He did I respected him for that. Sure we had much more ground to cover over the next 2 yrs. Which we did. Yet Evolution vs ID was the easiest & simplest thing we ever did.

It's sad that were he alive today. We're he able to get on this thread. His knowledge & background, as does the scientist on the Dissent List, so overwhelm you. He'd be embarrassed for you at letting your bias so overwhelm your common sense logic & misunderstanding that creation science is exactly the same science but just recognizes that it's origins requires an ID & in no way could all the FUNCTIONAL DESIGN arise from trial & error by random natural selection.

Genetics doesn't gain new information. It only selects from what's already been provided by original INTELLIGENT DESIGNER. Mutations are almost always deadly or make it sterile. Isn't it interesting that with all the genetics known today. No new species are formed by our Intelligent humans. Corn, wheat, roses etc always remain that despite being genetically formed for certain traits.

Same with diseases as the mutate & change. They don't become a new species. They are same just. adapted. Adapted from original info which was already there. Already in original program.

They've done experiments with 50,000 & more etc of many types yet never become new species.

See evolution can't explain the arrival of the original info by random trial & error. FUNCTIONAL DESIGN ALWAYS requires a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER.

I've given as was asked to provide science proofs of young earth. I do so. But all it did was expose you & your bias is always supreme. You don't want real answers. You just want to play pseudo smart while beating your bully pulpit w/o having to do real reading & research.

I won't be your object any more. You've proven my point. You don't want answers. When you get you won't look at them & then avoid the points I made when asking for just ONE example of FUNCTIONAL DESIGN that occurred w/o an ID involved. Only caveat. Evolutions admissions to brainwashing, propaganda, filtering & use of just so stories mean it elimates you using any of those.

You must use an actual scientifically validated lab experiment proving FUNCTIONAL DESIGN can occur w/o ID. Or same with Computer program. In other words. They Design or Program themselves by themselves w/o any person of ID being involved.

With evolutions history of proven frauds. It must be validated & repeatable like true science does it.

Until you can actually do that. You're wasting my time, since it fails in common sense & logic unless by miracles or supernatural it happens.

I'll be waiting. So until you provide this. I doubt you'll hear back. As evolutionist also admitted to. They teach it w/o actual science demonstration. That makes logic & common sense since it can't be done in reality. All they have is innuendo & the rest & so many just so stories.

You've yet to present a single piece of evidence, much less proof, for your claim.

I'm still waiting. Please demonstrate that function requires design.

The difference is not in the science itself. It's in how it got here. We recognize the COMPLEX FUNCTIONAL DESIGN couldn't have happened by random trial & error. It has to have occurred by an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER! Just like everything else in life that is & has FUNCTIONAL DESIGN ALWAYS requires a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

Let's amend this slightly. Does complex functionality require a designer? Do you see the difference? In your version, the design is assumed. In this, it is not.

And what we propose is *exactly* that complex functionality does NOT require a designer. Reproduction, mutation, and selection will, almost inevitably produce high levels of complexity in functioning systems (unless it leads to extinction, which happens also).

This position is supported by many different lines of evidence which we can discuss if you are willing. But first acknowledge that we are talking about complex functionality, NOT complex functional design.

That's the only difference in the actual science per se. We take the science where it actually leads.. We don't take people like as I said earlier I think Mary S something that first discover fossils of dinosaurs with soft tissue & blood proving youngness. Then she gets hammered by the SCIENCE ESTABLISHMENT to recant & not go where the science leads but toe the party line.

And, has been pointed out, this is a false description of what happened. OF COURSE she was expected to adhere to strict standards when making such a claim. OF COURSE people were going to question her methods and evidence. That is how science is DONE.

But, after the analysis was completed, her position was accepted.

That's why many evolutionist have become creationist or signed that scientist dissent list. When their research was getting young earth results & THE ESTABLISHMENT threatens them & pulls grants to get them back in line. To them honesty in science was worth more than being bought off. Sadly many have succumbed to that pressure & been bought off.

And, has been pointed out to you many times, this list is NOT what it is claimed to be. It asserts a position of 'skepticism', which is, again, a basic tenant of doing science. OF COURSE scientists should be skeptical of *any* scientific description. That is the *job* of the scientists: to test the ideas in as many ways as possible, to try to extract any flaws that exist.

That's not science. That biased Agenda run amok. You're so biased & naive you refuse the see the truth for what it is. That's truly sad. I've told you how they work, what their own words admit to. But you won't see it for yourself.

No. That is a misinterpretation of the evidence based on *your agenda*.

Then have the audacity to ask for the scientific reasons for young earth I've already given. But you won't read them.

Sure we will. But remember that you are far from the first person to present these arguments. Most of them have been around for decades and were known to be flawed even then. At this point, you have given nothing new--only rehashes of old arguments that have been shown wrong many times.

So sad how you've been so brainwashed. That's exactly how the prof describes how he teaches evolution to this college students. He admits to teaching it by using propaganda, filtering information, using brainwashing techniques etc.

And again, you read with your bias and agenda. Yes, in the case of an *introductory* course, it is impossible to go over all the reasons for all the conclusions. This is as true of physics and biology as it is of mathematics. But, when you get to later, more detailed classes, those details are presented and discussed. You have been told this, but ignored it. And *that* is because of your agenda.

Yet even from their own mouths you stay brainwashed. That's how sad it truly is for you. Worse you actually think creationist don't teach or understand real science. When not only do we. We take it where it leads. We don't force it into a certain belief & discard anything else. Then force others to toe the line.

Yes, I think that creationists don't' teach or understand real science. That is quite evidence from what they write. Except, of course, those few that *do* understand and then lie about the real science.

We just recognize the logic & common sense that it all had to come about by a INTELLIGENT DESIGNER like everything else in past present & future proves.

Please get your head out of the sand!

The irony here is amazing. You are the one that has refused to listen to the flaws we have given in your position. We have answered every question you have presented (and you have presented none that are new). And you have refused to learn anything about what the real science actually says.

So who has the agenda and is brainwashed?

To illustrate this. Answer this question Evolutionist, Darwin or Theistic, Do you believe in eternal existence?
We know Creationist do already due to belief in eternal God, Father, Son, & Holy Spirit.

No, they are not. I could go to university, study biology and understand evolution and all of its evidence in detail. If I found something that disproved evolution, the theory would change. The trouble is that the theory of evolution has so much explanatory and predictive power that it's accepted by extremely skeptical people as close to fact as we can get.

Creationism is based on a book which has neither explanatory nor predictive power; and has been shown to be false, faked and/or contradictory numerous times as well as biased and, to be honest, unreliable as evidence. I could go and become an expert in theology and be no closer to the truth.

Faith and reasonable belief are different things. I have reasonable belief in evolution because I understand the evidence and can explain it to someone else to some rudimentary degree, and I understand that the sort of people behind the theory have also are responsible for the theory of gravity and for modern medicine, both of which I can prove work.

You may have faith in creationism, but if you have to resort to saying "it's a matter of faith" what you actually mean is "I dont have a good, logical reason to believe this, but I still do."
