Re: RTB: Serious Problems with Evolution

Of course a theory is only as good as the supporting facts. Too obvious to need saying. Here are some facts: ToE does not address the origin of life. No problem, serious or otherwise with evolution or the theories (s) thereof has been identified in this thread. Some more facts: ToE is not about lif...

Re: Is Belief in God Delusional or Non-Belief?

But getting back to what Kenny said about Dawkins and those like him. If Dawkins and other atheists argued only about crazy religious people, and not about God Himself, then I could see what you're saying. But trying to argue against God, because of what others who claim to follow Him believe, or t...

Re: RTB: Serious Problems with Evolution

Postin' a gish aint what I'd call hard. Here is hard: state one fact that is contrary to ToE. Everything else is just preachin'. I suggest any theory is only as good as the 'facts' it is built on. So let's start at the beginning, to find one fact that is contrary to hypothesis that amino acids and ...

Re: Is Belief in God Delusional or Non-Belief?

Okay -- it is the Claim that it isn't possible to know for sure that God exists. Well -- either He does or He doesn't. Excellent point! Logic 101 And since we have a book that says He Does exist -- then obviously He Does. Of course! It’s that easy. Oh wait; there’s another book out there that says ...

Re: RTB: Serious Problems with Evolution

Preachin' to the choir with a gish? Tsk. That's the easy response, Audie! Try instead, what is far more difficult, to address the specific issues the links bring up - particularly the astronomical mathematical improbabilities - not based upon speculation, but upon KNOWN science, innumerable studies...

Re: Catholicism

Have started this here so we don`t totally derail Bippy`s thread! I have no particular denomination, I am still exploring. I have chatted with a Catholic and I really like some of the ideas behind it. I am NOT saying that Mary is somehow "above" God or Christ. All I am saying is that thro...

Re: Woman as a priest?

Since a priest, like an apostle, was to SERVE and NOT rule, I don't see a problem with women being ordained at all. Paul, Aren't priests spiritual leaders? And woman leading a man... What about 1 Cor. 14 and 1 Tim. 2 from the links from Rick? --- Rick, I saw your first link some time ago. Yet, I wo...

Re: Catholicism

There are a few things in the RC religion that are not biblical. They are based on the tradition of the Church, not the bible per say. So far I have no knowledge of any religion that 'gets it right' according to me. For starters the apostles met in peoples homes not 'churches'. "Churches', per...

Re: Beginners guide to evolutionary theory

I wonder what exactly is meant by / is the basis for saying "proteins deteriorate.." and, as for the completed complex host, what information about a bright line distinction between living and non living is entered into this. FYI. Even in a living host proteins deteriorate. It is commonly...

Re: Beginners guide to evolutionary theory

You seem to think evolution needs guidance, Im saying it no more needs it than water does. There is no general principle, nor any specific evidence whatever that any guidance is involved, at all. I don't think that evolution needs guidance at all. I just pointed out that Natural selection seems to ...

Re: Woman as a priest?

In my village, there are two churches. One is envangelical augsburg church. From my googling I learned there is a woman in a role of a priest. My question is: Is this in accordance with the Bible? I do not think woman is to rule over man. How do you view it? And would you visit such church? A woman...

Re: Catholicism

Philip in revelations it even talks about the angels carrying prayers to God's throne . As for not needing the angels and saints in heaven, I agree , so from now on we don't need to ask for anyone to pray for us right ?. Perhaps we don't 'NEED" to ask for others prayers to achieve salvation, b...
