You didn't name any animals, I did. And I mentioned "Dingo and 37 other subspecies". A dingo is not a dog, even though it is a subspecies to gray wolf, just like the dog.
Its funny you say a dingo isnt a dog, when on wikipedia, the first eight words of the dingo article describes it as a "free roaming dog".
The evidence that I provided you with points towards evolution. If that immense amount of evidence doesn't make you see clearly, then nothing will. And as I said: Of cource it could be a designer. But nothing suggests it. If we new that a hyper intelligent, omnicient being existed, then it would be logical to at least take it into account. This is not, in itself, a proof of that. You're assuming what you wan't to prove. You assume that an intelligent designer exists, therfore he could be the source of life, and therefore all life has the DNA, and therfore God must be the cause.
I dont assume at all. Our DNA is so complex that the odds of it just "coming all together" by a blind, and unguided process are astronomical. You cant get this kind of complexity from unguidedness. Why is it that its ok to recgonize intelligent design when it comes to anything else other than the complexity of life?? A cell is more complicated than a space shuttle. A SPACE SHUTTLE!!! But its ok to recognize a space shuttle as intelligent design, and not the cell??? Why? Because you know that intelligent design points towards a creator, that is why. This is very disingenous.
So? There is more than the number of chromosomes that specify a species. It's not like Armadillios and the Guinea pig are the same species just cause they have the same amount of chromosomes.
Ok, well then I shouldnt see any more crap about humans evovling from apes just because we have almost the same number of chromosomes then, right?
Of cource it didn't prove it, I know that. I merely showed you that there are suggestions out there (although no theories) about what could have happened. What I mean is that it's not like you have to choose between ID or the Miller-Urey experiment. Again, the lack of proof doesn't suggest ID.
Failed suggestions need not apply
lol... that's what the religious people have been saying since the beginning of time. "There will never be a naturalistic explanation for thunder. It is so obvious that it is Thor, the god of thunder that is the source" or "There is no way that that big ball of light in the sky could ever be explained, it is obviously the god Helios in all his glory"
Well, on the Christian view, God created everything, even thunder. So therefore, that is about as close as we can get to the concept of "Thor". Just because we understand how thunder can strike or make itself visible doesn't answer the question of where did it get its absolute origins from.
Do you realize how arrogant it is, now when we have the explanation? That is why future generation will laugh at our ignorance, because of the people that thought that we had reached our limits regarding the naturalistic explanations of our Universe and life.
Science will never be able to answer why did the universe begin to exist. It is not logically possible. Nothing can be the origin of its own being.
False. ID doesn't have any religious implications. If it were to be proven that ID was correct, we would still be completly ignorant regarding the will of this intelligent designer, if he even cared, if he was even still here etc. ID is often covered up in alot of (mostly christian) religious bullcrap but in itself it doesn't imply any religion at all.
Yes it does. I didnt mean "religious implications" in terms of worship. I meant it in terms of recognizing the fact that there is a Creator of the universe. Whether you choose to worship it or not is your business.
Nope, not that either. Not if you, by transcendent, mean in regard to a materialistic universe. It could, as I said earlier, just as likely be aliens.
Transcendent, meaning beyond the materialistic universe. Aliens, if they exist, are still beings made up of matter. Now if you postulate anything beyond that, then you are getting in the supernatural realm, which would further my point.
It's logic reasoning, and I am aware that it is in your eyes regarded as silly even though you try to use it all the time. If we don't know, then we don't know. There is no evidence of design, no matter how little evidence there is for a naturalistic explanation of the origin of life. The lack of naturalistic explanation for thunder, a few hundred years ago, was no more a reason to believe in an intelligent thundergod than your example.
The complexity we have in our DNA is evidence of intelligent design. If you conclude that things of less complexity are designed, why would you hesitate to reach the same conclusion on something more complex??? This is a double standard.
Ok. Then why don't you believe it was aliens?
It depends on what you mean by aliens. If you mean aliens that are made up of matter and exist in the material world, then no, because nothing within the universe can be said to be the cause of the universe. If by aliens you mean supernatural beings that exist beyond the materialistic world, then yes, that is possible. But I dont believe in supernatural aliens because of my belief in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Yes of course... and bats are birds, and man made from mud, and women from mud and a rib, and you can fit all species of the earth on noahs ark, and people can rise from the grave and it's possible for some human to walk on liquid water, and it's possible to... lol... just lol
Bats being birds? Well, that is how they classified animals. They were wrong according to our animal classification, and we were wrong according to theirs. Animal classifications are subjective and can change at any given time. That is easy. Second, it makes more sense to believe that God created man from dirt, than to believe that the dirt came alive on its own, producing a functional and intelligent human being, or ape (or whatever it is you believe). Third, it was only two of each kind of species, and the ark was extremely huge. Fourth, Jesus is God, and yes, God can rise from the dead and walk on the water. These small acts are childs play to a being with divine power.
Um... it's called the laws of physics, and as you might have realized during your life, they're hard to mess with. Try break them and you'll see. It's not random that when you drop a pen, it falls towards the middle of the earth until it hits something. It will happen every time. And it's not random that the right molecules were formed during that and that sort of condition. It is forced to happen by the laws of physics. What might seem a bit random is that the earth happened to have the right conditions, but when taking into account how many planets there is out there it's not that strange that at least one ended up with the right conditions for life.
The "many worlds" hypothesis lol. First of all, there are only 8 planets that we know of, so there isn't that many out there that we can see. Second, even the laws of physics began to exist at the moment of the big bang. So the question of origins applies to the universe and every thing within it.
