I wasn't talking about aeronautical engineers designing an aircraft that has been proven through rigorous testing to fly safely with hundreds of passengers....or skilled surgeons who have spent years perfecting their procedures and have operated successfully on many people without too many negative incidents.
"Jumping of a cliff" in this instance looks like certain death, but the scientists assure you that they have altered gravity in this one location......now would you jump?
Me too...which is why I cannot accept the "evidence" offered by science for evolution. There is no solid evidence that it ever happened the way they say it did. I have yet to see anything but supposition.
That would be rather stupid since I believe in the greatest scientist in existence....but he just isn't human. He is the one responsible for those who study science being able to learn the limited amount of knowledge that they have gleaned so far. It is clearly not much when compared to what there is still to determine. The more scientists learn...the more they realize how much more there is to know.
So...what I reject is not science at all.....I reject organic evolution as the process by which all life on earth came to be what it is today.
I hope that is clear.
I can't say that you are ignorant, but I can say that you appear to have swallowed the science fiction hook, line and sinker. Your fantasy is way less credible than mine....but that is just my opinion from what I have gleaned reading articles that were supposed to convince me that life popped up in some ancient primordial soup and magically changed itself into every life form on the planet without a single bit of intelligent direction....all under the expert direction of "natural selection".
Sounds right and the right people with the diplomas are pushing it, so it must be true.....
Sorry, I don't buy it.
If you have a particular algorithm that runs on your computer, and it solves many problems efficiently, do you assume that it designed and installed itself?
If a computer programmer designed an algorithm that once installed, could install itself on all computers connected to it in a network without you doing anything to prompt it, would you then say that these computers were so clever that they installed these programs all by themselves?
If the means to install the algorithm was the work of a computer programmer...who should get the credit?
I am saying that logic dictates a programmer. Computer programs and algorithms don't just pop out of thin air. They require design and installation by someone with intelligence and expertise.
Very interesting. I especially liked this....."Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are a type of artificial intelligence. EAs are motivated by optimization processes that we observe in nature, such as natural selection, species migration, bird swarms, human culture, and ant colonies."
Artificial intelligence...now haven't scientists been working on that for years? What are the chances that Siri might be a product of evolution?
"EA's are motivated by optimization processes".....can you tell me what optimization processes take place in any design by man that is not motivated by an intelligent choice to facilitate that optimization?
Ant and termite colonies and bee hives are a classic example of organization and complete co-operation for the benefit of the whole colony. If you have ever watched documentaries on the way these fully "programmed" creatures operate, humans could take a leaf out of their book. Just accidental, you say.....programmed by Mr Nobody.
LOL No, I'm afraid that you are guilty of swallowing a delusion yourself. Are you telling me you can't be wrong? Are you really so sure that all this life is the product of undirected chance?
What if the Creator and his 'assistants' are extra-terrestrial beings that science has not made contact with....yet. Do you believe in extra-terrestrials sayak? It only means life forms that originate from outside of the earth.
I think your whole concept of "God" is flawed and influenced by radical religionists who swear that the earth was created in 7 literal days by a big magician. There is a reasonable middle ground that does not throw out true science, but embraces the Creator as the originator of it. It gives credit where credit is due.
My faith is firmly grounded in facts that are observable to me in the real world.....evolution's proponents are the ones depending on the computer graphics to sell their story.....heaven knows the fossil record is not backing them up.
I believe that there is a collective blindness that makes people want any kind of higher intelligence to go away. The clay has apparently become too intelligent for the potter. I think I can hear him laughing.
