There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

[Subduction Zone]

I believe I have a long post for that. I am sure you will find my belief backed by evidence.

I always have to remind people that, when I say I believe it is due to RF rules that no-one can know anything. Even if I believe I have absolutely sure evidence I still have to say, I believe.

I do not think that there is any such rule. If one says "I know" one must be ready to demonstrate how one knows. If one can't do that then it can be called proselytizing or preaching.

I believe in other words you are saying: Don't bore me with evidence I don't wish to acknowledge.

No, what you post is not "evidence I don't wish to acknowledge" it is merely very very bad "evidence" if that.

I doubt it. Where and from whom?

I attended a Christian school. And I've read plenty about the formation of the Bible. You want to discuss that, start another thread.

Time is certainly a factor. But then time is a factor when humans breed. They don't have sex one night and instantly shoot out a baby. What? Nine months to make a baby? Comic book stories.

Lol, I like how you keep bringing up stuff that has nothing to do with the topic.

Where do you think the matter came from in going from the cell to the

Did you forget that the mother's body is a necessary component?

That is not the best place to go to for such an education. They tend to be rather biased and ignore the scholars that have studied the Bible properly.

It had plenty to do with the topic. It shows how your reasoning was fallacious.

Or improperly, depending on what you believe is right.

Only it doesn't, because it's not about abiogenesis at all.

The problem is that a literalistic approach to the Bible refutes God, if you claim that is what God has to be. A proper source would not shoot itself in the foot.

I'm not the one who keeps bringing up babies, just responded to the other guy's off topic post.

I never claimed that it was. I was dealing with your error in regards to time.

It's your Fantasy, tell it any way you want...

Wrong again. Just because you do not understand a rather obvious analogy, and I can explain it for you if really needed, does not make a post "off topic". It dealt with your error so it was on topic.

Once again, you are the one that has not supported anything properly here.. You are the one literally blaspheming while playing fan fiction with your holy book.

No it came from another life.. which is the point.

No, the material that makes up the baby or adult came from the food that was eaten.

The mother doesn't get *smaller* as the baby grows.

The growing child gains weight from *somewhere*. Where do you think the weight (mass) comes from?

It's a smoke screen... The flying squirrel tactic.
"Look a flying squirrel!"
Because he doesn't want to address the real issue. A baby has nothing to do with life being formed by itself. That should be obvious, so why do I have to keep explaining it?

 

[Wildswanderer]

Ok, so I guess babies don't come from mom anymore.
The baby would not exist without two another lives existing first. Why do you keep going off topic?

But if the mother does not eat, the baby will not grow. The actual matter comes from the food.
