Re: Islam ?
The Allah we are discussing is the god of Islam, the god of the Qur'an. ''Allah'' is also an arabic word for ''god''. When used in another language than Arabic, Allah clearly denotes the god of Islam: Allah est le dieu des musulmans. (French) El dios de los musulmanes se llama Allah. (Spanish)* Get...

Re: Islam ?
OK...just remember that Allah is not YHWH, God as revealed in the Bible. I'm sure you know this but I write it for the benefit of others who may be reading. FL Okay...colour me intrigued... What,then, is Allah...? I always thought it was just a foreign name for god. Much like 'white' is 'weiß' in G...

Re: Strange behaving asteroid
Since every bit of dirt/rock/ice-ball floating around our parent Sun is effectively unique.....
Then we are witnessing the interactions of the Sun's energy on this particular piece of inter-Solar flotsam.

Re: Through the Lens: Evolution, "What About Transitional Fo
Question: Can Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) be performed purely using Methodological Naturalism to determine what actually happened? Why or why not? From a quick Google search to refresh m'self of the meaning of 'Methodological Naturalism' I say, "Sure, of course they can and probably do.&qu...

Re: Nature of Reality: A Challenge to Atheists
You certainly can dismiss anything you like but that does not make it rational or honest, Dismissing things doesn't make doing it dishonest or irrational, either. ...the position of not knowing or we cannot know is unable to dismiss anything and remain rational because you don't actually know. Is t...

Re: Nature of Reality: A Challenge to Atheists
Going to cut/paste and switch your quotes around Dan, since I feel answering them in this fashion is a tad better. Also I have, multiple times, on this board called myself an Atheist who is on the agnostic side fo the sliding scale. The reply to Kurieuo was a more general "Lump Atheists into th...

Re: Ten Specific Predictions of Evolution: split from Neo's
It is a one-off animal with no ancestry. How did it become the only mammal to lay eggs, have poison glands in its claws, legs that are made like and work more like a lizard than a mammal, etc? Um...well there's also the Echidna..which is another egg laying mammal. Then you have the Marsupials. Who ...

So...you're saying only something like a 'croc-o-duck' would be acceptable to yourself as how evolution works, then?jlay wrote:Focus? What could be more focused than simply providing a slam dunk for Darwinism. A quadruped with a fluke would end the discussion.

Re: Ten Specific Predictions of Evolution: split from Neo's
6. We will never find a living or fossilized true chimera such as Pegasus, Mermaid or Griffin. How would that prove evolution. It just means we would have no evidence one existed. You did a good job answering these. I just wanted to add something to this point. The duck-billed platypus should quali...

Re: Through the Lens: Evolution, "What Is Evolution?"
Thadeyus, The links speak for themselves. If I assert something such as , "progressive creationism is a fact", then yes, you can and should ask me to prove my assertion. And, I don't know why you're asking me this anyways. I didn't tell Neo to prove anything. I believe by posting his link...
