What a bunch of crap!! disprove something??? Just because something cannot be disproved means its true? Talk about warped minds. Lets see what else we can't disprove.Vampires, telekinesis, aliens, I believe some people can change to any animal form they want, can you disprove it? What an idiot!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:Quote:

Finally, I personally do not believe in god or a supreme being, but I do not even pretend to know. Evolution is fact, not a theory. I do however agree with seeker, Evolution and Creationism are not mutually exclusive!!!Quote:

I've read the bible have you ever read the Origin of the species?
I think you confusing evolution with different theories on how life began.Quote:

You not being the same person you were is not evolution. Thats the whole problem you don't even know what evolution is and here you are trying argue.Quote:

Man I can't stand idiots like you, do some research, no I guess then you'd have to think for yourself and people like you need someone to tell you what you can think.
My father was the dept. head at a major university a religious university for over 30 years in the Bio dept. he has also been an ordained minister for over 30 years and he taught evolution. We don't agree on many things but thank goodness we can discuss it intelligently. GET A CLUE
Yeah :rolleyes: except the chances of an animal becomeing a fossil are astronomical why would you think there sould be so many? maybe you shoiuld look into how a fossil is formed.Quote:

Science has not even come close to explaining paranormal activity. If science is the proof, then why doesn't it have all the answers?
personal experiences dont offer proof. therers a homeless guy in front of city hall that claims to be the mayor, in his head he most seriously is, but it is clear to most he suffers some type of mental disorder. while you may say you have 'experienced' paranormal things, it in no way mean you actually have.Quote:

WE ARE A SEPARATE GROUP WHO APPARENTLY CO EXISTED WITH SIMILAR SPECIES LIKE NEANDERTHAL....
SO IN A MILLION YEARS A CHIMP WONT BECOME HUMAN
WE JUST EVOLVED SUCCESSFULLY AND THE OTHERS DIED OUT
YKNOWWHDDIMEAN????
Looker, you're wierd, but you're right :D
Science like EVERYTHING else is constantly evolving. Why do you need proof of anything? You apparently have other beliefs that can't be proven. What do you base your beliefs on? Empirical evidence? Or is it only what you personally experience?Quote:

Why do you all insist on saying 'no offence' before expressing your opinion. Just because somebody says god is BS, should not offend anyone. If you are offended by what people say about your religion or about god, i have one thing to say to you. Worry about yourself. I can't stand when people are 'offended' by what other people think or say about their religion. Especially when it contradicts people's religion.
Personally, I think the bible is bullshit, god is bullshit, angels, church, all of that, is bullshit. I think more than half the world is delirious. I think the bible is no more than a book to entertain and explain. If i offended you with my words, You just worry about yourself, and stop worrying about what other people say or think. Sure you can explain your side of the 'aguement' but i dont want to hear 'your words offended me'' crap. I think there is so much more to the universe than the human mind can ever comprehend. There are truths about this world and the universe that the human mind will NEVER understand. And i think the bible and all relgions, science even, are just ways to explain the world and the universe, however there is no way we will ever know if any of it is true.

Soldier for the truth
more than half the world? delirious? of course man. we live in a crazy world. crazy fuckin world where everyone thinks happiness can be found in money and material
I am a firm believer in evolution. I think it is silly(steps on ppl's toes) the way ppl think about evolution and creationism. My father is a minister. When I was a Christian, I ask him one day, about his personal beliefs on evolution. He told me it was bunk. I ask why is it bunk?he went on and on, and on about the bible. I said Well, Why can't evolution and creationism go hand and hand. First off I don't believe in creationism, But at the time,I did(years ago).I told him,why couldn't god(the soo called god that I believed in at the time)guided evolution. and it took eoms of time to get to this point in evolution.
I grew up in a Christian family, and every Sunday my parents brought me to church to learn the word of god. As I grew up, the more I began to think about religion and this idea of a god, and the more it came to me, isn't this a bit silly? This almighty powerful god for some reason created this extraordinarily complex universe and then left without showing shed of proof of his existence. I have talked with many religious people and have tried to understand their reasoning as to why they believe in god, and there answer ultimately comes down to faith. Nothing more than faith; is it just me or is taking an idea completely on faith a little naĂŻve? Doesnâ??t it make so much more sense that the universe has came to be as we perceive to be today by a process that can be explained logically? That perhaps planet earth is just one of many sites in the universe where the conditions for life are right? And on this small little planet orbiting an average star, in an average spiral galaxy, in a small corner of the universe life evolved into complex forms and sometime very recently, highly intelligent beings came to be. Overwhelmed by the beauty and complexity of the world they inhabited, they began to try and piece together the puzzle. Without science or any other method of rational analysis, early thinkers invented gods to explain what they had no other way of explaining. Through the ages wars were waged against different civilizations, in the name of god or the gods they believed in. Entire civilizations and beliefs were wiped out. Does all of this sound so ridiculous? Why canâ??t we just accept that earth isnâ??t really anything that special, and life as we know it developed on earth through chemical processes and evolved into more complex forms, and religion and other old ideas that attempt to explain how we came to be are just inventions of early civilizations and are no longer applicable? While I have completely disregarded the idea of religion for some time now, only recently has it really angered me. Like conservatives withholding the rights of gay people from marrying, just because some book says itâ??s bad. While I am straight, if I were gay I would be one pissed off individual. Even today wars are waged in the name of god. Entire countries at each others throats just because they believe in a different god or set of beliefs. I could go on but I can already see this post is getting quite long, and many people who pass by it might not be interested in reading it. So, why does the majority of the world still believe in a god or gods? Why canâ??t we release ourselves from what has been lagging our evolution as a society?
'cause my god can beat up your god!!!
We have evidence of evolution on our bodies, from our webbed hands and feet, to the "once" second-eyelid, which is now junk in the corner of our eyeball. We don't use our appendix, anymore, so pretty soon we'll evolve to where we don't have one.
Just like stupid people will evolve to a race of brain-less humans.
Awesome post, theone2334.
I agree. Humanity will never progress positively while we're still hung up on religion, and also gaining meterial wealth. And the reason being; those who believe in religion don't want to change, even if the change is for the better, and those with the material wealth definately don't want to change, even if it's for the good of our race. People are too self absorbed and greedy. :(
I don't think we have a choice on this, no matter what our beliefs. Evolution takes milleniums, our belief for the past couple thousand years isn't gonna stop our arms from digressing after we learn to use our brains instead.Quote:

Some dude decided to create us... so that we can defy him. Yeah, that's what happened.
I still don't get why he'd create us with signs of us being a reptile, like the alligators second eye-lid (or is it crocodiles?) and our webbed feet and hands to swim with. Back in the 1800's, everyone was born with a tail, but thanks to evolution, we're tail-less.
It's also kind of weird, from a Creationist viewpoint, that God also decided to create some animals almost, but not quite, in his own image, like the chimpanzee which shares 98.5% of its DNA with humans.
we may be the closest to a monkeys dna and everything, but that just dosent sound logicial to me
that's a very interesting word, logicial.
If man evolved from monkeys Why are there still monkeys? Shouldn't they have evolved with us into humans?
we share a common ancestor. evolution has taken humans and the different species of monkeys down different evolutionary paths.Quote:

Dogs were artificially bred from wolves, yet wolves still exist. More recent breeds of dogs are bred from older breeds, but those older breeds still exist. An interesting finding- because dogs have been bred for so long, some types of dogs are now are unable to mate with other breeds, because they are reproductivly incompatible now. Are they becoming different species??? Who knows!Quote:
