An important aspect of science is being open to and even seeking out that which might disprove your theory. [Spirituality & Religion]

@Boallods [quote]No creationist post-Darwin becomes creationist because of "evidence".[/quote]
That's because all the evidence points to evolution. Creationism ignores the evidence.

@Sharon [quote]And that is the sin of pride and arrogance.[/quote]

Wrong, Sharon. All evidence points to God, Yahweh, not evolution.

@Boallods [quote]Creationism was invented by those who misinterpreted the opening chapters of the Book of Genesis. No creationist post-Darwin becomes creationist because of "evidence".[/quote]

There's only one interpretation of Yahweh's Word and that belongs to Yahweh, Himself. Man has no say in it.

@GodSpeed63 [quote]All evidence points to God, Yahweh,[/quote]
Wrong, as usual @GodSpeed63.

@newjaninev2, [i]inter alios[/i], has already shown how the evidence points to evolution. Can you show how it points to [b]your specific god[/b] ("yahweh") and not, for example, some other god such as Odin or Zeus?

@Sharon [quote]Wrong, as usual @GodSpeed63.[/quote]

You say it but that's you can do. There's no evidence for your claim.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:18-20

Just in case you forgot that Yahweh, Himself supplied the evidence that He doe live. Now, you supply the evidence that He doesn't live. Otherwise, get used to having Him around.

@GodSpeed63

Can you give us a good reason why the words in a bronze age book should be taken at face value? Should be considered evidence?

I understand that you believe that on faith but what [i]logical[/i] reason is there to take that as evidence of a god?

@Pikachu [quote]Can you give us a good reason why the words in a bronze age book should be taken at face value?[/quote]

You neither know when the Word of God was written nor have any knowledge of the Scriptures. God is not a man that He is capable of lying or being error.

16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [c]instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16 & 17

16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” 18 And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain. 19 [i]And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private [j]interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but [k]holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:16-21

In other words, God wrote the book.

Can you give us a good reason to accept the claim "god wrote the book" ?🙂

@Pikachu [quote]Can you give us a good reason to accept the claim "god wrote the book" ?[/quote]

Receive Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior and be baptized in the Holy Spirit of Truth. Then, and only then, will you understand that its not a claim.

@GodSpeed63

lol oh so you CAN'T give us a good reason to accept your claim. It's 100% dependent on faith.

Good. Then we agree that your claim is one of faith and nothing based in logic or evidence.

@Pikachu [quote]oh so you CAN'T give us a good reason[/quote]

I just did. You need to stop making excuses and follow up on it.

@GodSpeed63

lol nah. You gave your faith claim. Your opinion. No matter how strongly you hold that opinion, it will never be anything more🙂

@GodSpeed63[quote] I just did[/quote]

lol! You did no such thing... despite your self-serving claim to the contrary

@newjaninev2


Well he posted scripture which in his circular reasoning means evidence

@Pikachu So the words in a book that say that the words in a book are true therefore give evidence that the words in a book are true because otherwise the words in a book wouldn’t say that the words are true because the book says that the words in that book are true.

Is that the ‘reasoning’?

@newjaninev2

lol yeah exactly. What's so hard to understand?

@GodSpeed63 [quote]There's no evidence for your claim. [/quote]
Where's the evidence for your claim? Your repeated failure to produce it is evidence for my claim that you don't have any.

@Sharon [quote]Where's the evidence for your claim?[/quote]

I take it that you have none then? Again, your stalling as usual. I suppose your going to try to come up with some excuse even though you have none.

@GodSpeed63 Let me see... you’re saying that you don’t need to produce evidence for your claim because the other person hasn’t produced evidence that contradicts her claim about your claim.

In other words you’re demanding that she defend your claim on your behalf, even though she is the one questioning your claim.

and that’s rational... how?

@GodSpeed63 [quote]I suppose your going to try to come up with some excuse even though you have none.[/quote]
That exactly what you have just done because, as we all know, you have no evidence to support your claim.

@Sharon [quote]That exactly what you have just done[/quote]

I don't have to make excuses like you do. There's no excuse for telling the truth about Yahweh.

@GodSpeed63 The truth is that this yahweh thing is no more than a figment of your imagination. Why not prove me wrong by presenting your evidence? :)

@Sharon [quote]The truth is that this yahweh thing is no more than a figment of your imagination.[/quote]

I don't have a yahweh thing like you do. This yahweh thing is a figment of your imagination, not mine.

@GodSpeed63 [quote]This yahweh thing is a figment of your imagination, not mine.[/quote]
Wow! You really are confused. You're the one who keeps banging on about it.

@Sharon [quote]Wow! You really are confused.[/quote]

I don't keep banging on about any of your gods. Just getting at the truth of the one true God who lives forever.
