Quote# 2383

Do you not find it at all disconcerting that you are arguing with all the atheists [for evolution]?? As a 'Christian' I would imagine that this would throw up a red flag for you.

Quote# 2384

Out of curiosity, who made up that claim that extraordinary claims demands extraordinary evidence? Why is that so, because some human decided to make up there own rules?

Quote# 2386

So you haven't seen my risen lord and I haven't seen your big bang. You can throw proof and speculation just as well as I can to support our own view and tear down each others. what to do? wait and see who's right?

I agree with that completely. There's nothing wrong with being a homosexual, but just like Downs Syndrome, homosexuality should be cured.

Quote# 2390

I feel that if creation is true then all of the evidence available to date should be consistent with that event. But if evolution is true then all of the evidence should be consistent with that hypothesis. Since all of the evidence is not consistent with the evolutionary hypothesis I decided to investigate the creation hypothesis, and so far I have not found any evidence that is not consistent with it.

Quote# 2391

Number one, I'm not probing because I listen to Kent Hovind. I'm probing b/c you can't provde a scientific experiment that proves the Big Bang as true. It would then become a fact and not a theory that evidence may point towards.

Quote# 2392

Yes, you or someone must be there to witness the event in order to record it. The Astronauts were there to record the moon landing. Are you not familiar with the 'scientific method'?

Quote# 2393

The theory is total speculation with no basis in scientifc possibilties. Whereas, we have written accounts of the life of Jesus Christ, and His ressurection, done by either eyewitnesses themselves or written from interviews with eyewitnesses (I'm more inclined to the former), which you claim to not be extraordinary enough evidence.... In a court of law, which theory would be more acceptable as per the full and total evidence, if looked at with no bias?

Quote# 2394

As I said, he is too trigger happy and doesnt research his material very well. One thing I commend him for is he is dogmatic.

Quote# 2395

[To a pagan]How do you know that they [the gods] are who they say they are? They could be 'someone' else just lying to you for a bit of fun. If I studied someone enough I could easily get people to believe I am them, especially if they person is naive' and open to being led. If you dont believe in something you will fall for anything.

Modern archeology is not compatible with the Book of Mormon's story of the Lamanites and the Nephites.

Quote# 2398

Maybe you can find the city of Troy, but you do not know all the truth. For example, did Helen of Troy run off with her boyfriend as he claimed, or was she kidnapped as her husband claimed. There is no question about the truth of the Bible stories. But the Greek stories often have a lot different versions to them.

Quote# 2400

Do you honestly feel that paleobiologists and their ilk, whose degrees will only earn them a living while the T[heory]o[f]E[volution] is still considered a valid scientific pursuit, and will end up flipping burgers if it is ever proven wrong, would ever publish evidence that damages their livelihood?

Quote# 2401

Just because you call it pure nonsense doesn't make it so. Just because it's a theory about a conspiracy, doesn't make it wrong. People make choices, and then avoid the consequences, lie to cover it up, and catch other people up in their webs. It happens all the time. Why is it so uneasonable, given the circumstances, to believe the worst about the T[heory]o[f]E[volution]?

How about the Ice Age? Geologists found all of these fossils and rock formations, and heard about the T[heory]o[f]E[volution], and decided that since it was true, there must have been an Ice Age.

Quote# 2403

The fact that various people who claim to be Christians work in this branch of science [evolutionary biology] doesn't alter that one iota. Take a good hard look at the people who profess to be Christian, and ask yourself how many of them even come close to the ideals set by Jesus. Is it any surprise that they have abandoned his teachings?

Quote# 2404

[Replying to 'Your attacks on Evolutionary Theory stem from a gross misunderstanding of many biological processes']This is a laughable statement. Let me re-phrase it for you so that it says the exact same thing, but in an accurate way: Your valid concerns with the ToE have been dealt with by changing the ToE. While your arguments were totally valid a few days ago, we are now talking about something completely different. This is how we've stayed in business for two hundred years (almost). Now go away, or we shall taunt you a second time!

Quote# 2405

That Cretaceous impact [that wiped out the dinosaurs] was just another step in His plan to terraform the earth. The lush jungles and fatty deposits of the animals of that time became our oil, and tar for sailing ships, and the newer, cooler climate was perfect for sowing deciduous trees, grasses, conifers, and the creatures that would live among them.

Quote# 2406

If evolution were occuring today, we would see the things it predicts. All theories predict what one should see if they are correct. Well, we SHOULD be seeing things changing into different creatures. Somewhere, it ought to be happening. A fly should be turning into a beetle, or an earthworm into a lobster, or a monkey into another type of man. I'd settle for a bacteria turning into a rotifer at this point. We ought to be seeing intermediate animals all over the damn place.

Since everywhere we look, we are not seeing five-assed monkeys falling out trees and being eaten by three-assed dogs, one could speculate that perhaps, just PERHAPS, mutations do not stick around.
