Re: Evolution is REAL
Do you honestly believe that if one believes in evolution they are rejecting God? I beg to differ, I have great faith in God.

And this rock, I take it you are referring to as our Earth, is very much alive, a living breathing Entity.

Then you haven't thought about it all very much.

Re: Evolution is REAL
Perfect example.

That caterpillar CANNOT EVOLVE into a butterfly.

It is a marvelous example of the wonderous creation of the Creator and an explicit example of the ABSURDITY OF EVOLUTION.

And yet more proof that you have not given this adequate thought and consideration.

This earth is very much alive. Life does not stem from lifelessness. If this Earth were dead, you would not have life, for life cannot be sustained by that which is dead.

And yes of course, everything living on this earth could die and the earth yet exist, the Earth does not need us to sustain life but we do need Her to sustain ours.

Re: Evolution is REAL
That all life sprang into existence by accident from a rock is just plain stupid, no matter how desperately academics try to justify their rejection of God.

No one says life sprang into existence from a rock, lol.



Of course they don't say that so simply and so directly
but with all the fluff removed

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT BELIEVERS IN EVOLUTION BELIEVE.


Simple question, do you believe this Rock, this Earth is alive?

Very true, but blind faith can be dangerous.
And there are many scientists that can be just as bad as the religious zealots, but while a scientist that uses absolutes, and dictates his finding as truth is an outcast of the scientific world, the OPPOSITE applies to the world of the relgious, where evidence is not needed, only blind faith and a belief.

Re: Evolution is REAL
Or consider caterpillars. A caterpillar has no obvious resemblance to a butterfly. The disparity in engineering is huge. The caterpillar has no legs, properly speaking, certainly no wings, no proboscis. How did a species that did not undergo metamorphosis evolve into one that did? Pupating looks like something you do well or not at all: If you don’t turn into something practical at the end, you don’t get another chance.

Think about this. The ancestor of a modern caterpillar necessarily was something that could reproduce already. To get to be a butterfly-producing sort of organism, it would have to evolve silk-extruding organs, since they are what you make a cocoon with. OK, maybe it did this to tie leaves together, or maybe the beast resembled a tent-caterpillar. (Again, plausibility over evidence.) Then some mutation caused it to wrap itself experimentally in silk. (What mutation? Are we serious?) It then died, wrapped, because it had no machinery to cause it to undergo the fantastically complex transformation into a butterfly. Death is almost always a discouragement to reproduction.

Tell me how the beast can gradually acquire, by accident, the capacity gradually to undergo all the formidably elaborate changes from worm to butterfly, so that each intermediate form is a practical organism that survives. If evolutionists cannot answer such questions, the theory fails.

Here the evolutionist will say, “Fred, caterpillars are soft, squashy things and don’t leave good fossils, so it’s unreasonable to expect us to find proof.” I see the problem. But it is unreasonable to expect me to accept something on the grounds that it can’t be proved. Yes, it is possible that an explanation exists and that we just haven’t found it. But you can say that of anything whatever. Is it good science to assume that evidence will be forthcoming because we sure would like it to be? I’ll gladly give you evidence Wednesday for a theory today?

Note that I am not asking evolutionists to give detailed mechanics for the evolution of everything that lives. If they gave convincing evidence for a few of the hard cases—proof of principle, so to speak—I would be inclined to believe that equally good evidence existed for the others. But they haven’t.

BTW, I'm going to eat dinner, so don't take it personally if I don't respond at the speed you desire. And don't get offended, it is true you did not put much thought into your reply to me regarding: your implying that one is rejecting God if they believe in evolution.
