You know what's ridiculous? [Spirituality & Religion]

When someone tells you that evolution is just too unlikely and that a creator god is the more likely option.
Like, how do you figure?! lol

Real easy. You take the blinders off and look at the whole picture of science instead of just one part. Jesus loves you and so do I.

@Celine Celine, everybody believes and uses faith all the time, even you. It doesn't take a genius to recognize the similarities in animals as well as the differences. Also, it doesn't take a genius to see how unique each animal is made that there is no way that random chance or natural selection could produce such wonderful animals.
Faith is a part of science, like it or not. I told you how you can find out the truth for yourself rather than take my word for it. Youhaven't tooken my word for it so far, what do you have to lose?

@Celine I did explain it to you. Why do you need to hear it again? Do you finally wan to learn the actual truth?

@Celine Like it or not faith is a part of science. It's what helps scientists with their word in all areas of science. They use faith when they come to their own theories of their findings whether that theory is real or imaginary. As long as scientists are alive, they'll use faith and belief in their hypothesizes whenever and wherever they do their work.

@Celine Name one scientist that's never used faith or belief while doing his/her work.

@Celine What did you use when you did demonstrations in your science class? How did you know the right chemicals to use in those test tubes or the slides to put under a microscope? How, do you think, scientists came up with the right combinations for medicines or dig in certain areas to find the fossils they were looking for?

@Celine Using Previous findings? How did those know where to look for fossils at Tiktaalik? Those paleontologists put faith in their learning and in their knowldge of the geographical layers that brought them to believe they would find the Tikktaalif fossil. Using faith in the knowldge they learned, CSI believes they can solve the crimes given to them regardless. So, Celine, tell me again who doesn't use faith?

@Celine Not necessarily. You said yourself, that science is trial and error. This is where faith comes in, that the trial and error will soon pass. This is where belief comes in when the trial and error has a solution. So, I'm not confusing faith and trust. Actually faith goes hand in hand with trust. So, again, who doesn't use faith?

@Celine You had faith that what you've learned about colors will be put to use by mixing blue and yellow to make green. Green was the result of your faith and the outcome of your belief in mixing blue and yellow. Again, faith is proved that it is of scientific value.

@Celine Don't go telling me you love science. You don't know where it begins or were it ends. You take misinformation about it then try to turn that into fact rather than learn the truth. You couldn't show me evidence to support your claims and turn around to dismiss the evidence that I've shown you that what is true is true. Forgive me, but I really don't believe you love science like you claim you do. Do yourself a favor, take that win - win challenge I gave you and go for it. What do you have lose? Really, what do you have to lose? Have a great night, my friend.

@Celine [quote]I honestly don't know what you're talking about. I tend to skim when you start preaching about Jehovah . I assume it's an invitation to have faith.[/quote] You already have faith, I'm inviting you to act more upon it is all. Just go for it. What do you have to lose? Just tell me, what do you have to lose?

@Celine I didn't fail to answer your question. You just didn't want to accept it as an answer is all. As long as we live, we have faith and we believe. That's the way God created us. Allow me to disagree with you in that faith does have a meaningful part in science, Celine. If it didn't, science itself would collapse overnight because the scientists wouldn't know where to start. I showed you demonstration upon demonstration of faith's part in science. You didn't accept it, so, don't accuse me of not answering your questions on faith.

If there was no God, how could man even think to create a god let a lone come up with one? How could man think in the first place? Don't you realize that if there was no God, the desire to seek Him out would not even exist in mankind? There wouldn't be a need to seek for a god. Since mankind has so many gods, it's not funny, that's more evidence for the one true God, Jehovah, who lives forever.

Well be waiting for your answer on how you used to be a religious person. What faith? I don't know. For the record, I'm not a religious person. Take Care, My Friend.

@Celine [quote]Are you serious? This is basic, basic stuff. God is nothing more than a big powerful daddy. How could man make up answers to questions to which he doesn't have an answer? Have you met people? lol we do that all the time.[/quote] That's your answer? In other words, you have no clue of how man could come up with a god if the was no God.

Do you hear yourself? You're right about God, Jehovah, being powerful and a Father to all those who receive Him. Yes, people tend to come up with some type of god all the time which confirms the fact that God, Jehovah, created the desire to seek Him out. Thank you for confirming that fact.

Just how did you go about seeking Jesus on your own? Why did you think the Word of God was a joke?

@Celine [quote]I just gave you the answer. People want to understand. It makes us feel secure. As a result we're happy to make up answers where we don't have them. For example lightning was attributed to thor.[/quote] I love that answer. It just confirms once more that we have a desire to seek out the one true God, Jehovah, who lives forever. Thank you for that beautiful answer.

[quote]How can your faith be considered science? [/quote] I've already answered this question a number of times and have given demonstration upon demonstration. I can't help it if my answers are not to your liking. Faith itself is not science but it takes a major role in science in order for scientists to properly come up with accurate conclusions and solutions. Do you follow me this time?
