Question for people that believe in evolution
- Thread starter ftv1975
- Start date
Would also like to say that while wars are complicated, most of them have just been a complete waste of human lives and in none of them you can simply act as you please and kill anyone. Beyond that, you are comparing apples with oranges. The witch hunt was not a war, it was an unacceptable atrocity that could never, and can never, be justified.

Use whatever excuse you need to appease your intelligence Kerr.
People had a choice of whether they dropped napalm on innocent people, those who gave the command had a choice, those who dropped it had a choice and those who made the weapons had a choice. Napalm burns people alive, incinerates them, and leaves untold damage and destruction on those that didn't die.
Still comparing apples and oranges I see? Then I take it you have nothing against the witch hunts that still happen in Africa. Glad to see some people stand up for peoples rights to murder children.

Kerr I have a lot against witch hunts, even those perpetrated in the guise of war. Even the verbal witch hunts like those perpetrated between the atheist and the theist. Though unlike others I am not going to say some are better than others or some are worse than others. They are all bad.
Like I said before use any excuse you need to appease your intelligence.
Some are worse then others. To burn someone alive or to beat and hurt children because of fear and ignorance is far worse then anything anyone can say to anyone. In which case, it brings us back to why I took up the subject of witch hunts to begin with. Despite that some people believe otherwise, witches does not exist. That means that the people who claims someone else is a witch is either lying or delusional. Which means that, considering out history, we cannot take peoples words for truth.

No I got the point the first time you posted childish garbage pertaining to witch hunts et al. You are prejudice against religions, I get it. Mankind has done some horrific things to each other over time, and are still doing horrific things to each other today, and you want to single out religion.
Peronally I would suggest you take example from Phan Thi Kim Phuc, if you have never had the opportunity to hear her speak, I would suggest you take the advantage if the opportunity ever presents itself to you. You will find her a very powerful speaker, without bitterness or prejudice pertaining to those who brought injustice into her life. A wonderful and decent human being.

Back to the OP,
There is overwhelming scientific evidence that proves evolution and common descent. While any alternative hypothesis I have ever heard has been based on pure speculation, supernatural explanations, and psudoscientific supposition.
Unless empirical evidence provides a reasonable alternative, I will continue to support the purly scientific explanations for diversity in the species

That is okay Kerr, I never understand crap and garbage, irrespective of who uses it. My wrong.
Human nature is just as much a part of religion as it is with science and any other part of life which humans are involved in or have been involved in. Rational, reasonable and logical people understand this. Take all religions from the face of the earth and nothing would be any different, even a high probability based on past history that things would be a lot worse where war and abuse is concerned.
Lol, yes, your wrong. Since you have decided to read something I didn´t write in my post and miss the actual text, you aren´t qualified to make any comment on it.
Anyway, this debate is meaningless, you prove once again you are not going to understand and instead draw conclusions out of thin air, so I will just ignore you from now on since debating with people like you serves no purpose. Have a great life.

Micro evolution is a proven fact. However, there isn't a shred of evidence that supports macro evolution. Here's great article that explains it.

Macro evolution is a fact as well.
We have observed new species getting evolved.
Here are just a couple examples.
Birth of New Species Witnessed by Scientists
A NEW species of mosquito is evolving on the London Underground
and of course this is a good article.

(p.s. thanks to Perfect Circle for the bird article. He had a thread on it here.)

First tell me what you mean by these two terms, then, assuming I understand you, we can look at the monumental evidence that supports the latter.
Do you think Biologists are all a bunch of idiot who believe anything without "a shred of evidence?"

So you can't be serious....You actually called me a bigot a few pages ago as if that was a problem and now it appears you're acknowledging this trait in "everybody". Isn't that the definition of "hypocrisy"?
