Although I look forward to that day, I cant see it happening. The religion will continue to "evolve" to stay in business.juicy_one said:I noticed that the Western nations are losing faith in religion. Soon major religions such as Christianity in the U.S.A will be obscelete.

Garryowen said:oh for FUCKS SAKE YOU CAN'T PROVE EVOLUTION BECAUSE YOU CAN'T RECREATE IT.
lizard said:Yet another stupid statement from someone who knows nothing. Please respond to this.
Carbon 14 (carbon dating) is used to date things up to about 12'000 years old. Not millions. Please stop trying to sound clever. And anyway, how can methods like this be proven when no one has lived that long, nor are any records or historical accounts that old?

Das Uberdog said:you do not have a working understanding of evolutionary theory. please read the links that childrenofbodom posted.
Guesswork, and making an estimate based on loads of data, with proven variance and expected values, are completely different things. I don't mind that you believe in creationism, but if you're so sure that all the evolution theory, and supporting scientific methods are pure crap, then why don't you put down your mobile phone, turn off your computer, and step away from all these devices which are based on "guesswork".lizard said:So if you admit you can't prove it, you admit it is mere speculation and can in no way be stated as known fact. Therefore you don't "know" fossils are millions of years old so your earlier argument about the dates not matching the Bible's dates is totally crap and pointless.
Quick Google search on fossil dating! You'll find it is no more than guesswork. Using estimates based on radioactivity decay.

lizard said:All you have a working understanding of is fairytales. There is nothing to understand about evolution because it can't happen! Stop pretending you understand something that is impossible. You just sound STUPID trying to pretend you have seen it or something.

Ultimately neither can be proven beyond an infinite degree of doubt, so here's what you sound like to an evolution believer: "So, have you read each and every word of the bible" next post "But what about in it's original language??" next post "Well has it been translated correctly??" next post "How do you know words haven't been changed???" blah blah blah "How do you know the original text isn't distorted by the wind???".
Holding firm to your beliefs is one thing, calling everything total crap and pointless because there's an extremely small but finite margin of error, while ignoring the same faults on your side, just proves that nomatter whether creationism or evolution is right or wrong, you are beyond any doubt, a complete idiot.
lizard said:Don't you start being fucking stupid. I was agreeing with what you said!
lizard said:My thread is not titled " the bible is true". It is titled "we did not evolve". I fail to see any relevance in what you just said. Evolution can't be proven. Neither is there any proper scientific evidence to say it to be true. It is merely someones idea(Darwin) and others have latched on purely to leave intelligent design out of the equation.

WTF???? Is the WR infected with stupid disease tonight?
