Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
There is actually OBSERVED and SUBSTANTIATED evidence that matter can be created instantly. However there is no substantiated and observed evidence that any organism has the genetic capacity to evolve from microbe to elephant. The observed and substantiated evidence that matter can be be created, f...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
When to comes to the evolutionary tree of life, anything above 'family' and sometimes genus, is a vague accumulation of confusion. Not at all. You seem to be equating, not for the first time, 'a lack of absolute certainty' with 'a vague accumulation of confusion.' I do not concur with your equation...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Well one example may be that dog breeders have been trying to breed larger and larger dogs. However, I don't see any dog being able to be bred to be as large as an elephant. You know this isn't true. Why suggest it? What use would a dog as large as an elephant be? Obviously you are not a country la...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
The obvious question I would have for you, is do you believe in the virgin birth of Christ, and his resurrection, which are both New Testament miracles? Yes, I thought you might. The answer, as I wriggled away with just now, is that I don't know. In several circumstances we have an undisputed befor...

Re: New Theological discourse happening
like to point out is that a Christian can pull scriptures to suit their view, be it liberal or exclusive or anything in between. JW's, Mormons, SDAs, the Pope etc can all pull scriptures to support their view and reason away other scriptures. Actually, no they can't. Which is why JW's have their ow...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Re: Dogs and interbreeding, the question before a Progressive Creationist, Day-Age (and even YECs who believe "kinds" of animals were taken on the ark), isn't just declaring an interbreeding hypothesis. Or, perhaps it is, if one believes God initially created many different "breeds&q...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Fascinating living in the UK, and waking up to find all these interesting posts accumulating overnight! Dogs. Yes, it took dozens of generations to make them look and behave like dogs rather than wolves, so I'm not very surprised that you can't produce a domestic dog from a wolf just by treating it...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Yes, of course neither do I, but I break-away from a traditional understanding of Noah's story anyway. The minimum I believe any Christian ought to affirm regarding such is as Jesus specifically stated in Matt 24:37-39: 37“For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38“For ...

Re: New Theological discourse happening
I don't go to a Catholic church, just so you know. Clearly, you have a strong dislike of the Pope and appear to be judging him. Naughty naughty!! :shakehead: The work on the cross was to suffer death for ALL men and to save ALL mankind..... See..... 1) 1 Timothy 2:4 -- “[God our Savior] will have a...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Are you talking to me? I'm not sure I understand the question. And admit my ignorance so-far-as Miacids are concerned. Not really; it's just that whatever the subject, even the slightest mention of the a-- word is enough to divert it towards Noah's Fludde. Again. and the second part was not aimed a...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
I also believe this bit of the following article... "Actually the assignment of a certain number of millions of years to a rock formation does not derive from the strata itself. The standard Geological Column became the reference point, even though it does not appear anywhere on earth except i...

Re: New Theological discourse happening
I believe the biggest problem is Christians buying into a false biblical love that causes them to believe that love allows evil to run rough shod over good and it takes so many out of the battle thinking like this.We all know about love that the bible teaches about but we are also salt and light in...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
Hugh, the "intervention" began with how and when God created various things. The interconnectedness of species and their interdependencies,, their created environments, and especially of their timings of the arrival and interdependencies of all dictate how things transpired. This is true ...

Re: Evolving from Simple to Complex?
The discovery of Pre-Cambrian pollen was indeed a surprise in the 1960s, and I am even more surprised that no further work has been carried out on it since then. Roraima is not vastly inaccessible, and if any creationist geologists would care to pop up and dig out new samples, they could destroy bo...
