People today are so brainwashed! Why don't people question scientist's theories?

It says Cain was in the process of constructing a city, it doesn't say there was people in it. Genesis isn't exhaustive, but it doesn't say there was people in the city Cain was building.

It seems to me that everything around us--plants, brains, eyes, ears, taste buds, cats, dogs, books, electricity, sunlight, and even the belief in God--is all evidence that there must be a God. After all, a nationwide pole shows that 7% of people in the US are actual atheists, and 47% believe the earth to be created within the last 10 thousand years.

Maybe they don't hate God as you say since they don't believe in Him [nothing to hate], but they hold contempt for what they believe is 'unreal', in this case God, so I believe they do hate [scorn] God.

Are you a racist? The Nazi's loved Darwin. The full title of his book (which your "education" has censored from you and therefore brainwashed you) is, 'The origin of species by means of natural selection; or, The preservation of favored races in the struggle for life'

[To a person whose father committed adultery]I do want to say this: Not to hound your mom, but that is one of the reasons why wives should not work... Cause they are suppossed to help out the husband and keep him adequate. Plus they will be attacked by "wolves" (horney men)

Just because it may also be "enjoyable" does not mean that a husband and wife are allowed to have sex with the use of contraceptives just for the "enjoyment" of it, as they are not allowing procreation to occur, so it is a sin. Same thing goes for any sexual act that is not done with the intent to have a child.

But thats what i'm saying with 50% of married familys splitting up some familys not getting jobs in the workforce because both partners working taking work from other familys just being greedy and not careing about other familys who go without.

Someone has to be the head of the family man was created that king because man is stronger than woman i didn't make the world like this, that is how it is, try and respect you position in the world.... Now we have women acting like there the kings of the throne (as demonstarted above)...

Because creationist(YEC) do not have the resources that evolutionist have to rely on. You would think that with all the resources they [scientists who accept evolution] do have that more tests would be done to disprove the existance of God instead of resorting to personal opinions and personal attacks of those who even dare to differ.

Liberals are the most repressive, intolerant, politically incorrect political party in America today. This is the truth! America's Demon-crats are a socialistic, repressive, intolerant, bigoted, hypocritical group of people in American politics.

Satan can't "get" Christians. We are not afraid for ourselves -- but for the lost who may be influenced by false belief systems permeating the globe. A Christian must take the reponsibility of not compromising the Gospel {in the face of MUCH hostility} very seriously. If someone tells us repeatedly about their god, we must tell them repeatedly about the one true God. There IS a "universalist conspiracy" and it has been pushed by Satan himself since the Garden. Again, his objective is to deceive and destroy souls. We have an obligation to counter the lie boldly whenever it rears its ugly head.

Do you know why the creationist students are failing in our highschools and colleges? Because most of them teach evolution! If you don't believe in evolution (or at least pretend to) you're history! I have heard countless stories of my friends getting F's on everything from homework to tests because they didn't use evolution as the premisis for their answers. They used God. That is why they are failing.

And why do some many non-Christians get married? I mean, marriage is an institution created by God. It shows up in the bible initially. There is no other evidence that it came from somehwhere else.

And how did you learn Pluto exists? or King Tut? Books, other people? Gee, sounds a lot like religion to me... Don't be an idiot. While I give specific examples, you give your own personal beliefs. Everything I listed can be proven to exist? It's a common philosophical fact that the only thing you can prove exist is yourself.

It seems many of you may be getting Christianity confused with Catholocism- which is NOT Christianity. Catholocism stems from Constantine... Their doctrines are VERY non Biblical. You guys should know this. Catholocism is the political money grubbing beast. Although, I do agree that some Christian churches have fallen into this trap, but once again, lets watch these generalizations.

Another thing you can look at, that is secular is the reson we are in the year 2003 AD and 2004 years ago it 1 BC. If he was not an important figure in His day do you honestly think the secular world would have recorded time based upon His life?

Im not trying to cause arguments, its just cant you see there is no difference between harry potter and lord of the rings? they both include magic and wizards SOMETHING the bible HIGHLY CONDEMMS! SHOULD we partake at the same table as satan and god?

The basic fundamental beliefs (or presuppositions) of the atheistic philosophy claims that we live in a universe that is eternal (meaning, not created), and that the universe operates by randomness and chance. And that all that exists is matter in motion. So, we conclude the following.... 1.There can't be any absolutes (since this contradicts the belief that the universe is random and chance-like (a Darwinion presupposition as well) 2.There can not be anything supernatural or anything non-material. 3.We can't know anything (since knowledge may evolve) A consistent atheist would have to live his life not doing or saying anything, but just waiting. If there are no absolutes or non-material things then laws of science and math can't exist. Neither can the laws of logic exist (thereby stripping the atheist of his capacity to debate or reason about anything, or have any sort of intellectual discourse). Morals don't exist (so the atheist can't throw in the argument that since God is all-good and all-powerful, then He can't exist since evil exists as well. Yet, evil presupposes a standard of good, and that standard is God).

[When someone comments that Star Trek also contains things that could be called 'sorcery']Is sorcery ever justifyed?

The Atheist peoples are scared of change.

That's the main thing holding Atheists back from God. A fear of change. So when Christians talk about God they get all cut and slander Christians cause they are trying to justify the sinful world they live in. Hence their belief in evolution.

The peoples who created the big bang theory know it's bullshit... but they've convinced themselves in their minds that it's truth... cause they're afraid of change and having their egos destroyed.
But we as Christians know what is truth... not only in our heads but also in our hearts. We know what's truth cause we feel the truth and the heart doesn't lie. And that is why evolution will never destroy what faith we have.

Oh I don't know. Make a lizard give birth to a bird, or a cow to a whale, or a monkey a man. All are progressions evolutionists believe. So why not? Should only take you a few million years to do, right? Oh but your steps wouldn't be random, so you should be able to speed it up quite a bit.

I believe the scientific evidence points to a young earth. I've been studying geology for nearly 20 years. At first I was an old earther and couldn't understand how anyone could say the earth was less than 10,000 years old. The longer I studied the evidence the more I was swayed over to the young earth side.

... saying u used to believe it and now you don't, that tells me that you never actually believed or understood a thing about what we're about, and you still don't. Kindly take you arrogant views and F*ck Off!

[After Pascal's wager is debunked]Well, answer me this question--You may know something I don't know--does any other religion promise a worse fate, or even a fate as bad, for those who do not follow its beliefs as a never-ending sentence of punishment and anguish?

[Replying to (paraphrased) 'Christian reconstructionism is a radical movement which aims to convert the US government into a totalitarian theocracy under Old Testament law]Bullwinkle, the Secular humanist have done this to public schools and universities and have ruin the last 3 generations with their false doctrine. It is about time for the Christian to fight back.

The only problem with the Bible being stories and myth or whatnot is that it would be very unique. I mean, all of it's major players ahve huge falws with them. Look at David. Great guy, man after God's own heart. Adulturer and murderer. He's not the perfect heroe like heroes should be. The Bible is all too true in its depiction of men.

Did you know that Carl Sagan NOW knows Jesus Christ is really who he said he was....! YEP.. I have proof of that.....AND you can dig that truth out of THE rock..that was on a hillside..

[Replying to 'Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.']

The claim is not extraordinary. In fact, I would say that atheists' claims are much more extraordinary. I would think that almost every human being believes in some form of spiritual life. Atheists are the minority. But of course, they must be right, since they know what is really going on. Way to go...!

Don't bother trying to mock me, it won't do any good both for your argument, and your future. Your smart remarks mean nothing to me because these aren't even my words that I'm telling you. I'm trying to teach you about who God is and you are continuing in your false ideas. You are not trying to mock me, but God. Know for certain: God does........not........tolerate........mockers.

My attitude towards science is very much one of mistrust, contempt and fear. Man had many comforts of faith in the past, such as geocentrism and special creationism, and science has done all to violate those shrines. I concede heliocentrism and evolution, but I will not let science touch God and the afterlife. If science says there is no God and no afterlife, then science can go to hell.

prove imeteors hit the earth in the last 6k to 10k yrs. My point exactly u are making unfounded assertions

lol, I love those arguments, '[Y]ou can't prove That God exists by looking at the bible, that's circular reasoning'... that's like saying you can't look into the white house to prove the president exists

Hi atheist, I have a question for you, If evolution is false, and stupid, and impossible, then what could possibly prove it, or show us good evidence of it?

God made it. That is how. Did you know that there is no proff that this world just came to be by some thing. God made it. Did you know that if this world was a little closer to the sun, we'd all burn up, or is this world was a little further away from the sun, we'd all freez to death. No doubt about it, God is real. Stop trying to understand it, just except it.

Darwin started off as a student of natural theology, but then he defected and joined the other side. Without even knowing it, he became a father of sorts and lead 2/3 of science astray.

[On Joseph Smith]How can a "true" prophet of the Lord compile works that contradict each other? I just posted a thread that did just that, i.e. compared several contradicting documents.

Don't Ask Me For Money to Fight AIDS.... You asked for it.

Do you honestly think that you are the original in raising these questions? If the Bible could be proven false/and or/inaccurate, then Christianity wouldn't have survived 2000 years of persecution. People aren't willling to be burned alive and cut in half for lies. The only way that I see anyone could stand by their beliefs through all this because a loving God changed their lives through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

At church Sunday we talked about how the fossils came about. Not EVERYTHING can come into a fossil, you have to be cover in water or mud/sand rapidly... So there HAD to be a flood covering the ENTIRE earth for there to be so many different fossils.

Its just a well tested theory that you still have no answer for with no solid evidence.

There is simply no if ands or buts about it, she [Mary] should NOT be prayed to, and if you pray to her, you HAVE BEEN led astray. What is hard about this to understand? If this isnt clear to you, I would say you HAVE NOT read the bible enough, and most likely you HAVE BEEN spoon fed by some wacko priest that likely humms some odious tune to the melody of mans tradition and not Gods WORD.

... not really that good at science (failed science test >.< ) but im learning and studying evolution in my free time when im bored... if populations evolve then does that mean that humans are suddenly gonna pop out 3 eyes or something like that?

I'm new to the forums but i just wanted to say that there has NEVER been any proof to the theory of Evolution. A few years back they thought they had found the 'missing link' but it turns out it was a fake. With that said I believe that evolution is complete crap!!!!

However, the existence of life, particularly human life requires something for which Darwinism has no answer: information, faculties of reason, language, increasing complexity, and finally, humanity.

So George Lucas is presenting the idea of a lightsaber(untruth) as untruth? But the lightsabers are real and working in the SW universe! So he is presenting an untruth as truth, we need to believe that it is truth otherwise the movie fails.

They post on the boards here and elsewhere only for the sake of endless debate and their mission in life is to cast doubt and negativity, not faith or reason. They try to show an infinite number of regression statements in every argument, which ultimately show no cause or reason for anything, because an infinite series of successive chain of past events is impossible. They have a reprobate mind and a dead spirit.

Show me one mutation that could turn a snake into a whale over any number of years? Show me a mutation that can reproduce to identical bilateral flippers on an organsim? Unless you think all the one flippered whales died out, just happend to never fossilize.

[Replying to a request for good anti-evolution literature for a school report]

The best book that I ever came across that showed evolution to be false was, and is, the BIBLE. You know, where it says "God created......."

However, if you don't believe the Bible, well......

The Bible is quite sufficient [evidence] all by itself that supernatural events happened.
