There's a famous saying... its goes "sarcasm is the lowest form of wit".

I take it you don't have any arguments refuting the OP's evidence?

Or, like most of the "faithful" that wandered in here, you just looked at the thread title, and hit "reply"...

I'm sarcastic because people who take the bible or history books seriously are ignorant. We are human, we know nothing about this universe. An absolute belief in science is just as bad as an absolute belief in religion. what what word

What an accurate representation of the creationist crowd.

Ignore the facts, blurt out nonsense for attention and shock value.

By the way that's obviously racist, so nobody should ever listen to your opinion on any topic since you have deemed yourself ignorant.

While I can agree about the bible, I must strongly disagree with your comments on history...

I'm a history major (public history). If you're getting your history from one book... than yes, you're delusional...

However, If you use opposing views in history, and follow the archeological evidence... I'm sure you'll come up with the correct answers.

ooooh can I get one of those big hats? I've noticed that level of "holiness" is directly related to the size of your hat...

That's very kind but I believe hats are a conspiracy to create male hair pattern baldness!

I like those red gummy fish though!

I think the major problem with scientists is that their arrogance is clouding their judgement...

they get very offended and angry if someone even mentions intelligent higher power

and NATURE IS INTELLIGENT HIGHER POWER no matter what scientist say or do...

can scientists create life from scratch? NO!

and who created scientists? NATURE

so, how can a person think he/she is smarter than nature if he/she cannot create even a simple living organism (like amoeba) from scratch?

I think that scientists are simply, sorry to say this: dumb

Who is arrogant???

Who do you think invented the thing you are typing on?

YOU?

Did the bible leave the instructions.

That statement shows little regard for humanity. You just discounted millions of lifetimes dedicated to knowledge and understanding. GODS miracle at work, the sum of
countless brains working to accumulate and better understand gods own creation.

Why on earth are you on ATS anyhow?

My father ran one of the largest c14 labs in the country... Do you think the billions are spent for fun? Do you actually believe people spend 12 more years in school to play make believe and get paid like a school teacher?


I suggest you stop using anything that dumb scientist has formulated... DO this for ten years..

START with the computer.

Ultimately, we're discussing our origins.

ok, I can start with human brain, a biologic computer that scientists know very little about...

if nature didn't create the brain, there wouldn't be any computers that your dad works on...

oh, and I forgot to say that creationists are little dumb too (because they also have dogmas), but hey, you can attack me further if you like

I don't care...

this website is about conspiracies, not about science, so you could easily ask yourself why are YOU here!?

whatever

But the OP provided the evidence for Evolution... All evolution needs to get itself rolling is life, and competition for survival...

Abiogenesis is the scientific study of how that life came to be... but that, is another thread...www.abovetopsecret.com...'

(I started that thread because detractors of Evolution often think evolution includes Abiogenesis)

Under which category would you class "SpiderGoat"?

It was created by an intelligent entity (us) but was done so with pre-existing genetic templates via-a-vis the spider and goat DNA.

Are we humans now de facto creationists now that we are creating new species? Evolution did not make spider-goat, but God didn't either.

What about 'Round-up Ready' cotton? - it is part cockroach, it certainly didn't evolve, but there is a viable breeding population, and fertility can also be switched on or off in the laboratory. (ie. terminator genes)

There are cows running around that have Human blood in their veins, which we can use for transfusions - since 1984.

What if in the future these cows evolve into something as smart as us; will they be on internet forums debating whether their common ancestor is Cow or Primate, because it couldn't be both, could it? Of course there will always be 'cowpeople' on their forums that saying they are god's creation, but once their genetic technology increase to our current levels, they will learn the truth.

Basically, I don't think that there is any reason to include God in creationism theories anymore - especially now that we humans are currently making several new species every day.

*Remember folks, Before Gravity - God did it, he made things fall.

Before genetic technology advanced to current levels, some could even say the same about ourselves ' God did it, he made us'... But since we know he is no longer necessary, we can omit him from the equation. We aren't even sure he exists and there is no proof (that's why it's called 'faith'), but we are damn sure we can make New species in the Lab without his help and out of what has already evolved here on Earth; SpiderGoat....

If one excepts that Humans are not the Only intelligent species and omits all Deities from the equation, this theory becomes more likely.

Intelligent Manipulation (by aliens, not necessarily even on the earth) or a Natural Panspermia Scenario, or a combination of the two: where an intelligent species lacking the capabilities for interstellar flight launches genetically modified or 'hardy' microbes into deep space in the hope that they would succeed in spreading life. In turn this alien species itself may have originated in this manner and upon discovering this fact, they took it upon themselves to do likewise. I believe one day some Humans will do something like this.

Of course in order for such a thing to be happening in perpetuity, life would have had to originally evolve in the Darwinian manner somewhere/sometime - or the universe is indeed infinite and we are wrong in our continually changing assessments. I don't believe this is the case.

I believe that the natural occurrence of life is so Rare in this Universe, that Any abundance of it anywhere must be attributed to some sort of Intelligent Panspermia helping along. One might say It is our purpose to contaminate the universe - and the purpose of all intelligent space faring species with life.

Our Origins may very well be connected to the very first life to originate in this Universe. There is so much we will never know, it's great.

I do not intend to prove there is no God. I intend to prove evolution.


So You believe we are the product of Darwinian natural selection and random mutation or "evolution" and you can prove it?

Do I understand you correct?

Are you looking for a half-lizard half-mammal? The whole principal behind evolution is that these species developed along their own evolutionary tree. A lizard didn't just give birth to a hairy mammal one day.


Oh? Rly?? Tell us enlightened one, when does a species "get their own" branch on the tree? Surely they had to have started their branch on the evotree being some part of something? Where are the non functional half lung creatures in the middle of the "change" barely able to survive with those gills so atrophied

The notion of there being only ONE single, immortal-eternal Creator of EVERYTHING (or all living beings and all raw materials) in the (infinite, incomprehensibly vast) universe - who by the way just so happens to look like a HUMAN - has to be basically the most stark raving mad, blithering funny farm notion ever. However, the belief that everything in the universe is only random, accidental, purposeless mutations or whatever is equally ignorantly dogmatic. The truth HAS to be somewhere in between. It's why the indescribably worn out old argument is unwinnable by either side of EXTREMES.

I would wager that life the universe, intelligent or not, aside from some kind of initial Big Bang, is a collective-pluralistic product of probably countless intelligent species. In short, evolution is undeniably real, but there certainly (to me) has been some intelligent creating and tweeking/adjusting going on by certain BEINGS; not just ONE SINGLE flipping Supreme Being!

For the creationists -
there no room in religion for science, logic and rational thought, just as there is no place in considered, intelligent, logical, scientific and rational thought for religion - they are simply incompatible.

The upshot is that you must EITHER be religious OR intelligent. They are diametric opposites - there is no place in scientific debate, or intelligent society for religion , just as religion has been the nemesis of science and logic for thousands of years.

It is one or the other, attempting to "reason", or provide logic or thought as to why religion is sound is by default moronic, as it is unreasonable and illogical at its very core......

Quad Erant Demonstratum.

But its more about whats inside of us like our soul and spirit.

Yes?

Mmmm interesting method of joke telling audusness, You come up with that "stuff" all by your self? I think Darwin was religious when he was first inventing that lamarckian spin off called evolution was he not?

Then their was Newton, and Galileo, Lennox,?

Oh on second thought,, don't bother, I see you are here for one reason only and it has NOTHING to do with logic or your condescending and ignorant biblio bigotry. I get it that you think you possess such staggering intelect. Just as long as you know, those of us that do, are not impressed. That is what is so hard about the truth sometimes, is the idea you think you have it.


You don't

Look...point of the matter is: Abiogenesis and Evolution explain how lifeforms develop over a time-line.

They do not explain the origins of life, much less the origins of intelligence and consciousness.

Neither does Religion or Creationism for that matter.

To give the appearance of being able or in an authoritive position to provide such answers, such as both "Creationists" and "Evolution Theorists" tend to like to do it is either criminally deceptive or plain delusional.
