God Created [Spirituality & Religion]

I will be removing all rude and condescending comments.

There are currently 829 comments and so many of them are rude and condescending!

Currently, there is a rather misleading thread which asks...

"For my creationist friends who reject that evolution has occurred: What do you consider to be the best COUNTER-EVIDENCE that evolution has occurred?"

This question is misleading. Most Creationists believe that God created a world with many Kinds of creatures and that these creatures multiplied and grew in diversity. We believe that God used genes as building blocks for creatures in the same way that we might use cement to build very different structures. Similarities between creatures that are of different Kinds are simply the result of having the same building blocks. A dome structure and a skyscraper might both use cement but the similarity means nothing. It means nothing in biology as well.

Similarities between organisms might be used to classify organisms but using similarities to make assumptions about origins is ridiculous!

I am, however, thankful that God gave each Kind of creature the genetic ability to become diverse. So, we have many kinds of birds... many breeds of dogs... etc. Some call this ability evolution... but it does not imply that dogs came from an ancient bacterial ancestor. lolol.

So, does evolution occur? Yes, within each Kind of animal, of course! Does that mean that Darwin's dream might have merit? Of course not. The intricacies of nature and the masterful use of genetic building blocks implies a Creator... an organic architect and engineer.

Interesting I was watching a secular television programme in which it was happened to mention that scientists are now saying that they believe the whole human race descended from just a couple of people. Interesting!

@Speedyman Doesn't mean the couple of people were put by god, of course doesn't mean they weren't either. Let's not do confirmation bias here.

I didn’t say that. I just said it’s interesting. Of course when it comes to bias the atheists are the most biased on the planet @SatanBurger

@Speedyman yes, I saw a secular programme where the scientist said that at some stage in the earth's history it had suffered a worldwide disaster. The flood?
@Speedyman The fact that human beings have relatively low genetic variability suggests that we went through a population bottleneck at one point with less than 100 breeding pairs. There's less variation between, for example, a Finn and an Australian Aborigine, than there is between two troops of chimpanzees that live on opposite sides of a hill in Africa.

@LeopoldBloom Something like a flood 🙏
@Carazaa Sure, if the flood happened several million years ago. If you're theory is "Noah's Ark," that would have resulted in similar bottlenecks and lack of genetic variation for every species, not just humans. So that theory doesn't account for observations.

@LeopoldBloom All things are possible with God! Things happen quickly in nature not millions of years at all 🙂
TheWildEcho · 61-69, M
@Carazaa yes God can speed things up, He's a supernatural God so like you say all things are possible!

@TheWildEcho You bet ya 🙂
