I have just given reasons why I reject evolution and it has nothing to do with my interpretation of the bible that you can't stand.I would still reject evolution based on the evidence science has provided.There is no reason for me to produce one fact contrary to evolution as I've given reasons why I reject it and do not accept it. I'm not angry at those who do.I'm not angry because they believe it while I don't. I don't think they are ignorant because they accept it,I don't think I'm better than them because they accept it,I don't think they are ignorant or un-educated because they accept it. But I reject it based on the evidence.Audie wrote:abelcainsbrother wrote:Audie wrote:A person who knows more than any scientist on earth certainly should take that stand.abelcainsbrother wrote:Delusion?

I don't know where you get this from. Abelcainsbrother suffers from the same delusion. Scientists most certainly do not want you to accept things without question. On the contrary, they demand that you question everything, examine the evidence, and decide for yourself. Are you confusing evolutionists with creationists? Because creationists often make hopelessly unsupported statements which they happen to believe, and get quite miffed when anybody attempts to question them. I am not an atheist, but if I were, I doubt if any insistence that I believe literally in the words of a book, without any supporting evidence, would be likely to change my mind.
On the other hand, one such as yourself who knows next to nothing and that little gleaned from pop science and then regurgitated in a nearly unrecognizable new form... someone like that might wonder if he is being delusional. If he thinks he knows more than any scientist on earth, that is.
To think it is delusional. it would not do to be delusional. Yet there it is;
"regardless of what scientists say". Yep, our abe must the the greatest scientist ever. Or, delusional.
Your endless dodges when asked for one (1) fact contrary to ToE..why is that?
Could it be really that your "reasons" are nothing but ill-informed vaporware?
If not, give us the fact now. Waiting....That is precisely where you claim to know more and better than any scientist on earth.I never claimed I know more than a scientist.I have researched and examined the evidence scientists use for evidence life evolves and it does not demonstrate what they explain and this is why I don't accept evolution.I expect better from science
Anyone else here can see you doing that. It is delusional. Both to say it and to deny saying it.
.. I do not just believe everything a book,man,etc says is true unless it comes to the bible
You only believe your chosen interpretation of the bible, which is just as arrogant as the claim of knowing more than any scientist.
If I'm interested in something I try to examine the evidence behind it before I accept it.I could careless less about what the majority thinks about it
It is good not to go with majority just because it is majority. But you do not know enough to have anything remotely resembling a valid opinion. Your position is like a janitor saying he does not accept the majority opinion interpreting a CAT scan before neurosurgery.
Your grasp is what is weak. Notice how you cannot provide one contrary example to ToE?.Majority is not how we go about determining what is right or not. I have already given many examples and have shown and explained how the evidence in evolution science is weak
But it does, and you dont even know enough to realize that.and does not back up and demonstrate what scientists explin when they explain how life evolves and yet you have ignored it,or rejected it.
You have given exactly one reason: Abe doesnt understand.So why should I keep giving more reasons if its just going to be rejected?
With reading comprehension on the level that you came up with the statement that "evolution teaches that dinosaurs learned to fly to escape predators"
it is no wonder you are confused by what you read, and of course, see what you set out to see: nothing but nonsense.
As for referring to me as swine, that is pretty uncool. You of course, have no pearls.I'll wait until a more opportune time to. Why should I cast pearls before swine?
Just the same thing over and over, your weak comprehension.
And BTW we notice you still cant produce one fact contrary to ToE.
What would it take for you to notice that fact, and wonder what it means?

Re: How God can create through evolution:
It would'nt matter if I did because its not peer reviewed and the Gap Theory is a biblical interpretation and science looks at everything from a materialistic view point. I have always maintained that had Gap Creationism been taught instead of Young Earth Creationism evolution would have been defeated by creationists along time ago,this is not because it might change science but that alot less people would accept and believe life evolves because based on the evidence in the earth and on it,it does not prove life evolves it instead proves that there is "A Lost World" that got overlooked because of evolution and looking at everything in the earth from that evolution perspective. It matters how many people accept and believe the TOE even if science still rejected Gap Creationism because it is not peer reviewed evidence,or because they are caught up in materialism. But relax,because it did not happen and so the TOE is doing fine and stronger than ever and believed by so many.Audie wrote:abelcainsbrother wrote:I have just given reasons why I reject evolution and it has nothing to do with my interpretation of the bible that you can't stand.I would still reject evolution based on the evidence science has provided.There is no reason for me to produce one fact contrary to evolution as I've given reasons why I reject it and do not accept it.

I'm with Audie on this one. You have continually asserted that evolution is not true. Yet you haven't shown any facts to back up your assertion.
If Audie kept asserting that God doesn't exist, and you kept asking her to prove her assertion, and she couldn't, she should just stop asserting that shouldn't she?
Well, the same applies to anyone else, including you.
Frankly, I'm getting tired of listening to Audie ask you for facts that disprove evolution.

Re: How God can create through evolution:
I agree with you and I understand and I'm not mad at Audi or anybody but I have already given reasons in this thread why I reject evolution.I've given reasons why I reject it and I have discussed it already in this thread with others as well.

Alot of times I feel like it is a one-sided discussion about it when I'm giving truthful reasons why I reject evolution and the other person just discounts it,but defends evolution but offers no reasons why they accept it other than just trusting scientists and the science behind it.

Re: How God can create through evolution:
I can give one fact about the theory of evolution. No scientist has ever demonstrated life evolves eventhough they have tried to many of times to. Yet despite this they just keep pushing it up the hill when they do not even know if life evolves. The only thing they have demonstrated is there is limited variation in reproduction and that life can adapt and from this evidence they assume life evolves and just believe it does by faith.So that we are right back to where Darwin was 150 years ago assuming life evolves based on variation in reproduction.
Darwin's book "The Origin of Species" is what led to the theory of evolution becoming a scientific theory. And yet Darwin insisted that the tiny variation we see in a litter of kittens,might be accumilated,generation by generation,and extrapolated ad infinitum in order to finally turn a cat into a totally new and different kind of creature. This is the very samething scientists are still assuming today based on their evidence.
Now I have cracked the code and figured out what scientists have done to keep the theory of evolution going and to even confuse you about evolution.It was in 1927 that Russian entomologist Yuri Filipchenko introduced the terms "micro-evolution" and "macro-evolution" and scientists confuse people with these terms because they imply evolution however micro-evolution is the only thing that scientists have actually demonstrated but all micro-evolution is is normal variation in reproduction that plant and animal breeders exploited like roses and dogs and for thousnds of years before Darwin and even Darwin was well aware of variation as it is exactly what caused him to assume it would eventually lead to life evolving over time. We see many different kinds of dogs but despite different shapes and sizes they are still dogs and roses as well,we see different styles and colors but they are still roses. So that all micro-evolution is is the normal variation that we all see no matter what species of life we could look at. We see normal variation and it should not be called micro-evolution.
However it is macro-evolution that has never been demonstrated which is one kind of life evolving into a totally new and different kind of life.And yet when we look at the evidence scientists use for evidence for macro-evolution we still see variation in reproduction still being used for evidence like salamanders.
Here are salamanders used for evidence for speciation and we just see the normal variation in reproduction we see with all other species.
http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrar ... /devitt_02
Based on this kind of evidence I cannot accept evolution,therefore I cannot believe God created through evolution. This is not evidence life evolves or speciation happens and I cannot trust scientists that use this kind of evidence to push the evolution myth up the hill.

Re: How God can create through evolution:
May I respond on behalf of "the other person"? You have in fact only given one piece of evidence for rejecting evolution, which is the failure of scientists to demonstrate speciation in a science laboratory to your satisfaction. You studious ignore any suggestion that a few decades is simply not long enough for that to be possible. However, your comment is carefully noted, not "just discounted". Another reason for your (and others') rejection of evolution is that you do not think the human mind can have evolved from a non-human mind, nor birds from reptiles. These are opinions rather than evidences, and you are entitled to them. You are not entitled to say that "the other person" just defends evolution but offers no reasons why they accept it. I think evolution is a good explanation for the changing forms of the variety of living organisms observed over the centuries, for the similarities observed between organisms, especially their DNA, for the obviously inherited changes between organisms of similar ancestry, for the apparent redundancy of certain design features of a number of organisms, and for the ability of humans to breed such huge variation in domesticated animals and plants. I have studied these for 40 years, and have certainly not just "trusted scientists".abelcainsbrother wrote:Alot of times I feel like it is a one-sided discussion about it when I'm giving truthful reasons why I reject evolution and the other person just discounts it,but defends evolution but offers no reasons why they accept it other than just trusting scientists and the science behind it.
This is nonsense, as you have previously agreed. What you mean is that scientists have not demonstrated one interbreeding group of animals dividing into two separately interbreeding groups of animals, something which might be expected to take hundreds of years, at the least, rather than decades. You have already accepted that a large variety of different organisms evolve from a primordial "form", which is the essence of evolution. You granted that zebras, horses and donkeys were variations on a original, but claim that they do not demonstrate evolution. You have been told about transitional forms such as cows and yaks, or lions and tigers, animals which can be made to interbreed but mostly don't. You have accepted almost everything about evolution except the possibility that one species can evolve into another.abelcainsbrother wrote:I can give one fact about the theory of evolution. No scientist has ever demonstrated life evolves eventhough they have tried to many of times to.
Variation through reproduction and life adapting is what evolution is. If you accept this you accept evolution. Scientists believe that by these two mechanisms the whole variety of living organisms have developed. You do not believe that these two mechanisms can have done so. That's fair enough; you are entitled to disagree.Yet despite this they just keep pushing it up the hill when they do not even know if life evolves. The only thing they have demonstrated is there is limited variation in reproduction and that life can adapt and from this evidence they assume life evolves and just believe it does by faith.
Evolutionists like myself do not distinguish between micro- and macro- evolution, and consider that given the right environmental pressure and enough time, the one produces the other.Now I have cracked the code and figured out what scientists have done to keep the theory of evolution going and to even confuse you about evolution.It was in 1927 that Russian entomologist Yuri Filipchenko introduced the terms "micro-evolution" and "macro-evolution" and scientists confuse people with these terms because they imply evolution however micro-evolution is the only thing that scientists have actually demonstrated but all micro-evolution is is normal variation in reproduction that plant and animal breeders exploited like roses and dogs and for thousnds of years before Darwin and even Darwin was well aware of variation as it is exactly what caused him to assume it would eventually lead to life evolving over time. We see many different kinds of dogs but despite different shapes and sizes they are still dogs and roses as well,we see different styles and colors but they are still roses. So that all micro-evolution is is the normal variation that we all see no matter what species of life we could look at. We see normal variation and it should not be called micro-evolution.
You do not really say what you mean by "totally new and different kind of life". Do lions and tigers count? They are on the point of becoming different kinds of life. Or were you hoping to see a crocodile give birth to an ostrich? Because if so, then you do not understand what evolution is about. There is no such thing as macro-evolution, except insofar as it is an accumulation of micro-mutations.However it is macro-evolution that has never been demonstrated which is one kind of life evolving into a totally new and different kind of life.
Well that's OK. You are entitled to your opinion. But do not pretend that evolutionists are mindless accepters of dogma, or that they do not listen to your views.Based on this kind of evidence I cannot accept evolution,therefore I cannot believe God created through evolution. This is not evidence life evolves or speciation happens and I cannot trust scientists that use this kind of evidence to push the evolution myth up the hill.

Talk of evolution creating a "new and totally different kind of
life" actually does have a very specific meaning.
It is the same meaning as talk of racking up balls on the
basketball rink.
It shows the author hasnt the dimmest clue about the subject matter.

Actually I have also brought up no transitional fossils,cladistics and fruit flies also. I realize we all have opinions too. Similarities in DNA Darwin could not have known about but this is not evidence life evolves. It comes down to how we view this kind of evidence and interpret it.There are other ways to interpret this kind of evidence. Yes but it is limited variation by the breeding of domesticated animals and plants.It shows that there are limits that cannot be crossed. I have read about,researched and examined the evidene in evolution science over time for years and I've also read views from all sides of the debate say about it too,including evolutionists that have been honest enough to speak out about the problems in evolution science and have even tried to come up with new ideas to help evolution,only to be ignored by the majority.They see the lack of evidence and when I have went back and looked into the problems they have discussed they are right.

No interbreeding should'nt have anything to do with demonstrating life evolves.Scientists already know the ability to breed or not is not an indicator life has or can evolve,except when it comes to evolution then they decide when it is important.Because they just assume it happens and hav conditioned themselves to believe it.I've already explained based on Darwin what was supposed to have been demonstrated. No I accept the limited variation in reproduction we all see and Darwin knew about as well.Zebras,horses.donkeys,yaks,lions and tigers show us limited variation in reproduction. What was supposed to be demonstrated is what Darwin assumed based on variation which I've already explained. Did you know if man stopped growing corn it would stop growing? There is a limit to variation and this is what plant and animal breeders have shown for thousands of years.
Variation through reproduction and life adapting is what evolution is. If you accept this you accept evolution. Scientists believe that by these two mechanisms the whole variety of living organisms have developed. You do not believe that these two mechanisms can have done so.

The evidence in evolution does not back up that variarion in reproduction and adaptation is what evolution is,or that it causes it to happen. The evidence shows there are limits in variation in reproduction even when life is able to adapt.Like bacteria.Even as resiliant as bacteria is at adapting.Bacteria proves that environmental pressures cannot effect the DNA of any life.You have never seen bacteria evolve into a new and totally different kind of life after it adapted and bacteria goes back atleast 4 billion years.It remains bacteria regardless of the environment and this is what the evidence in evolution science has demonstrated too when they were trying to demonstrate it evolves,it never did,as their evidence shows.
Evolutionists like myself do not distinguish between micro- and macro- evolution, and consider that given the right environmental pressure and enough time, the one produces the other.Now I have cracked the code and figured out what scientists have done to keep the theory of evolution going and to even confuse you about evolution.It was in 1927 that Russian entomologist Yuri Filipchenko introduced the terms "micro-evolution" and "macro-evolution" and scientists confuse people with these terms because they imply evolution however micro-evolution is the only thing that scientists have actually demonstrated but all micro-evolution is is normal variation in reproduction that plant and animal breeders exploited like roses and dogs and for thousnds of years before Darwin and even Darwin was well aware of variation as it is exactly what caused him to assume it would eventually lead to life evolving over time.

Yes because one who accepts evolution already assumes alot of little mac's lead to big mac's.The problem arises though when they try to show they do and they don't.You do not really say what you mean by "totally new and different kind of life". Do lions and tigers count? They are on the point of becoming different kinds of life. Or were you hoping to see a crocodile give birth to an ostrich? Because if so, then you do not understand what evolution is about.

I'm not just making up stuff. I have already explained what Darwin assumed based on the variation that is seen in a litter of kittens. Are you now implying Darwin was crazy for assuming this? No lions and tigers show limited variation in reproduction.Well that's OK. You are entitled to your opinion. But do not pretend that evolutionists are mindless accepters of dogma, or that they do not listen to your views.Based on this kind of evidence I cannot accept evolution,therefore I cannot believe God created through evolution.

Re: How God can create through evolution:
Thanks for your reply, abelcainsbrother. If I address it in detail, as I have done before, I hope you will see this as taking your objections to evolution seriously and not simply ignoring you. The evidence you claim to have researched, however, all boils down to your entirely faith-based statement that separate species cannot evolve, and have not evolved. Your entire evidence for this is that it has not been observed - and my explanation for that is that there not been sufficient time, since experiments began, to observe it. You have studiously avoided responding to that point.
As I said, that is your only evidence for the denial of evolution. You have mentioned the fossil record, without explaining why it denies evolution, and cladistics, without explaining why it denies evolution, and fruitflies, but only with reference to the fact that they have not been observed becoming different species. You have admitted variation, but draw the line at speciation entirely on faith, rather than scientific, grounds, simply making statements such as, "there are limits that cannot be crossed" which cannot be justified by the evidence. Just because some arbitrarily limit, which you do not satisfactorily define, has not been shown to be crossed, does not mean that it cannot be crossed, merely that you do not find the evidence that it could be, compelling. And that's OK. I have no doubt whatever that clear and distinct speciation will be observed within the next few decades.
