Ummm, pages and pages of discipler/flagellum posts would say othewise. And the 2nd law etc was the ONLY thing you had right at the beginning.
Still tho, you're learning and growing, as must we all. So well done at being more edukated FOUR YEARS ON.

I seemed to have missed your entry in the Art Is War II contest. I bet it was something playful and biting regarding an astronaut and evolution or mitochondria or something. Thanks for being a vital and contributing part of the community.
- I didn't start this thread. Nor any of the other evolution related discussions. Always happy to contribute though.teleos
- Yes. Quite.TheBlueOne
- he's saying you aren't part of the design community this site espouses. god you are dense.spifflink

Khurram: I never flat out denied "evolution". Neither did I "harp on at the second law of thermodynamics as the final blow against evolution", even if it remains an incredible challenge to Darwinian evolution.

He also doesn't say earth is 6,000 years old either anymore. Well done!

Well, i'm glad to see teleos that you know longer flat deny evolution like u used to many years ago. At least now you come to accept this "speciasation" or whatever vague term you use.
Even if you're saying "god caused monkey to turn into man".
Also you no longer harp on at the second law of thermodynamics as the final blow against evolution...
All this tells me you are slowly learning - even if you are still wedded to your sandal-era dogma.

Too bad your God cell theory holds no water at all.

comicsans: The grand claim that many are making is that natural selection acting upon random mutations [aka the Darwinian synthesis or Darwinian Evolution] is responsible for all of biology.
- teleos0
ribit: There are multiple definitions for "evolution". Different people mean different things when they say "evolution". Depending on whom you ask, it can mean simply "change over time" or it can mean descent with modification via Darwinian mechanisms. If one is speaking of the Darwinian synthesis then they are making a much grander claim than simply change over time.
Gravity - It is a law of gravity that if you drop an object, it will fall to the ground, but it is Gravitational Theory that explains how and why this occurs.
Entropy - This is also known as the Second LAW of Thermodynamics. Learn, go, tell.
- Yes. Teach the Controversy. That's all you can do 'cuase you don't understand what you spew.TheBlueOne
- An assertion without supporting facts or evidence is simply hot air. What is this this grander claim that 'one' or 'they' are supposedly makingcomicsans
- supposedly makingcomicsans
- my god you're annoyingRand

Gravity is a law. Entropy is a law.
Darwinian Evolution is a highly speculative steamboat-era creation myth.

Humans may have "descended" from cuddly, furry little Emurs, maybe not. But it wasn't random variation + natural selection (the Darwinian Mechanism) that was responsible for said descent. It was front-loaded pre-programmed saltation.

It's the missing link....all they needed was one Lemur fossil.
Evolution is now proven fact!
- if you're being sarcastic, you obviously don't know shit about evolutionmonospaced
- you obviously choose to ignore the enormous absence of transitional fossils.designbot
- "transitional fossils" is a good band nameharlequino
- lol at "transitional fossils". Sounds all scientific, like you know what you're talking about.TheBlueOne
- hahahahaha, your ignorance is astonishingmonospaced
- hey monospace ANY time you want to have a real discussion, hit me up.designbot
- anytimemonospaced
- and TBO, yes I know exactly what I am talking about. Transitional fossils or transitional forms is a living or fossilized organism that is believed to be an evolutionary link between two groups of organismdesignbot
- organism that is believed to be an evolutionary link between two groups of organism. And as I said there is an enormous absence of these.designbot
- absence of these fossils.designbot
- But, the presence of some is actual evidence for evolution. The God theory still has zero evidence backing it up.monospaced
- I know exactly what you THINK you're talking about, but you'd be wrong. http://www.scientifi…TheBlueOne
- But doesn't matter, not going to convince each other anyway. TTFNTheBlueOne
- mono, what type of evidence do you suppose could prove the supernatural events that took place in the Bible?designbot
- And don't forget science has no facts to prove anything about the origins of the universe. Evolution attempts to answer man's origins, but fails to answer the bigger question.designbot
- man's origins, but fails to answer the bigger question (how anything came to be in the first place)designbot
- Interesting article TBO, I think my question to mono holds true in regards to this as well. When the claim is made there is "zero fact" to back up the "creationist" claim.designbot
- to back up the "creationist" Christian claim, what do you suppose would be evidence or "fact" to prove the supernatural?designbot
- don't get all sciencey about the bibble dude.DrBombay
- lol @ scienceydesignbot
- seriously, there isn't any science involved in that book. believe your faith and realize it is faithDrBombay
- It's faith, but not blind faith. I look at the evidences (historical, archeological and otherwise) and it's my faith in those evidences along with personal experiences that I arrive at my beliefs.designbot
- along with personal experiences that I arrive at my beliefs. Dr.B, I can assure you that you exercise faith everyday.designbot
- what does a monkey fossil have to do with it to make you get all jumpy about it?DrBombay
- Well you can see for yourself in this very thread, people often make a direct connection with evolution in disproving God or disproving Christianity.designbot
- disproving Christianity.designbot
- At the end of the day it really is a side issue to me, I just feel passionate that the things purported on evolution are often vastly skewed.designbot
- skewed and sensationalized. So you have this supposed "fact v.s. fiction" aka: science v.s. religion which is simply not true.designbot
- Curious what is your stance then Dr.B? No God whatsoever?designbot
- ukit0
The craziest most of that story is that the fossil was hanging on some guy's wall for 20 years, without anyone realizing that it was so valuable.
