Humble,.What I mean by intyervention is that there is a designer.I call Him God specifically the God of the Bible.Without a designer there is no chance of creation because it is simply too complex for it to happen by mere accident. There has to be a designer and a first cause. Perhaps you should study science and quit believing in a complex creation(life the universe and everything) without design or a designer. And while you are at remember that creatures produce off spring after their own kind.Also genetic material is never added to organisms only subtracted. Evolution is simply ridiculous and unscientific. You would never believe a fine swiss mechanical watch occured without design and a human being to assemble it. Yet you believe the human existence is possible without design when a single human cell has millions of parts that all work together.That happened by mere chance? Give me a break.To believe evolution you either have to be insane or desperate to deny the existence of GOD.

Yes it is. They have a new weapon in their armoury these days, which is that adaptation is real but evolution isn't. What they don't have is an explanation of how animals "adapt" if it isn't at the genetic level. Do they just _decide_ to grow tails or wings? And, of course, once forced to accept how silly that idea is, they claim adaptation is also at the gene level. In which case, I argue, it's evolution. Their tactic is then usually to tell me I'll find out the truth on Judgment Day.

@@joshuakohlmann9731 That seems like a ridiculous argument they make. Surely evolution and adaptation are exactly the same thing.

Believed some outlandish and crazy things (flat earth being one, despite being top at all scientific disciplines in school). Then just came to the realization I've created all these world views on the back of 0 evidence, I was actually willing to live my entire life shackled to beliefs that I had 0% chance of proving were true. Your logical mind will kick in like a "Eureka" moment, believe me.

As a kid I was surrounded by Christians who would heap praise on me when I did Christian-ish things. My mother, all her friends, everyone I knew who ever said or did anything nice for me did it because I ticked the right boxes. Bible study. Speaking in tongues. Trying to convert the kids at school. And... being a damn-near militant young-Earth creationist. Using all these talking points. Making a complete ass of myself at every opportunity. High school assignments on Evolution in biology class were almost a copy-paste of this video, but with a bunch of totally unrelated stuff (equally incorrect) about geology, cosmology, physics... I heard evolution and I heard "you must defend every piece of tripe you've been told to believe". And I thought I was winning. I thought my bogus factoids were gotchas, because all the other Christians told me they were gotchas. The DARWINISTS cant POSSIBLY respond to this!. In reality, I was leaving everyone speechless because there was simply no rationality in my argument, so there could be no counter-argument. I might as well have suggested that the sky was made of peanut butter. And when I did this stuff... I was rewarded. I was held up as some kind of moral exemplar by the increasingly irrelevant religious nutters I was surrounded by. And when a kid is only rewarded for being stupid, he will learn to be stupid habitually. I became a high-school dropout and did nothing useful with my life for a decade. Now, somehow, I have broken free from religion and superstition, and I went back to finish high school, and then to university. I am a physicist now. I am a naturalist, the exact opposite of what they raised me to be - but although I escaped it in the end, I can confidently say my entire life was set back at least 10 years. And not just set back - wasted in the most shameful, disgusting way possible. It was taken away from me, and I was turned into an unthinking little weasel. I was trained not to use my brain. To believe, believe, believe, believe. Never to think. I am so goddamned ashamed. I want my childhood back.

I can see evolution in quite a lot of places. For example, christianity has evolved from judawordinsertedism. It probably started as a small group with some master leader. Once the master leader died, the disciples took over and became leaders and at some point, they disagreed with each other and split into separate groups and they split some more over time and now, there are 47,000 sects. In fact, the bible itself gives as indication that right from the beginning, there were arguments among them and they had split. Look at Paul's letters. Look at Revelation. All religions split. The more time passes, the more stress there is inside a group, the more split happens. Mormonism is pretty (~1830) new and it has at least 4 sects. Scientology (~1940) has at least 2 sects.

Really all you need is a basic familiarity with them to understand how stupid using the second law of thermodynamics to argue a creationist case is. Not one creationist I've asked could even list the other laws without time to go research them, which was bad enough, but they didn't even know what the second law said. Mostly they're just parroting what they read on the AiG website.

Anyone who has ever watched a creationist video (e.g. here on KZfaq), especially some of the stuff that Ray Comfort puts out, you'd know that this parody video is actually a *VERY* accurate representation of how these people try to discredit biologists. Creationists (the "teaching" kind, not necessarily their followers) are deliberately misleading, manipulative and ignorant and make shitloads of money from that. I congratulate any fundamentally raised Christian who realizes that, may it be on their own, or by being inspired by a video like this. Stop falling for those charlatans, Christians.

haiggoh Right, exactly. It's like you're talking to robots, continually spouting the debunked ideas they hear from their apologists. I personally believe that the main issue lies with the fact that many believers view scientists and critical thinkers as 'corrupted'. They believe we have been 'indoctrinated' by the 'wicked' ways of the world. They naturally then adopt a thought process which encourages them to be wary of scientific facts which clearly conflict with their world view. I, when identifying myself as a believer in the past, believed that atheists had hearts that had been hardened and could not 'understand the things of god'. It takes a lot of de-traumatisation to recover from those thought patterns. I believe however, if I of all people got to this stage, most people could too.
@haiggoh10 жыл бұрын
Sammy Puro which is of course ironic, because they are the ones who have actually been indoctrinated to believe everyone else is indoctrinated and they somehow are in possession of the one and only truth. How did you recover from those thought-patterns after all? After speaking to some creationists it seems like it's impossible to escape. They just outright dismissed every evidence I presented to them an would say stuff like "DNA proves creationism" without further elaborating why it would when I had just demonstrated it actually proves common descend. You know these type of arguments. What made you change your mind eventually? Was it the sum of people disagreeing with you over time or was is one specific argument presented to you at the right time in your life?
@sammypuro939210 жыл бұрын
haiggoh Yes, well there was a culmination of ideas that got me initially thinking about the doctrine I believed. The main step in de-converting a fundamentalist (creationist) is to get them to understand that Yahweh - God of the bible is an invention. This is not an opinion. Not an interpretation by a few people. This is *fact*. Archaeological evidence clearly demonstrates the polytheistic nature of the earliest Jews. Yahweh was just ONE among many other Gods that the Jews worshiped. Bible scholars and well informed honest christians acknowledge this. -----> www.huffingtonpost.com/valerie-tarico/polytheism-and-human-sacr_b_777340.html What saddens me is that most christians will never get the opportunity to see these facts right there in their face.

Vrej Egon Spengler "the guy claimed that he isn't part of any religion and he just simply believes in a god" What he said with just this part here, is that he's a Deist. I know this because I'm actually a type of Deist. I believe there is some sort of supreme being or even a group of beings (an alien race?) that initiated the Big Bang billions of years ago, and then left everything alone after that. No more involvement, no book, no worship, no heaven or hell... just that *that* was the cause of the start of the beginning of the universe. Nothing more. And I fully understand it can't be proven nor disproven right now, so I could very well be 100% wrong - and I'm perfectly fine with that. It's why I say it's my *belief*.

sclinge1 I have considered that concept and I would not call that deism. People who say god, aren't even sure what it is or how to define it. Some of them say that it is omnipotent and omniscient which doesn't make sense. They use words like spiritual and soul which also has no proper definition. They are into worshipping which is another word for ass kissing. If someone says alien, I imagine that they are talking about life forms more or less like us and made of matter, not pixie dust.

I think something like that did happen, but a couple times. Archaeoraptor was a fake fossil made by Chinese farmers (IIRC) who "glued" two different fossils together. It fooled some people at National Geographic who published an article on it. But NatGeo is a pop-sci magazine, not a peer-reviewed scientific journal: Archaeoraptor was determined to be a fraud before making it into those. There are forgeries and frauds in every area that humans participate in, because, well, it involves humans. What matters is that the number of transitional fossils is overwhelming, and fakes do not eliminate them. PS: There are frauds in every religion too. Do you know how many different people have claimed to have found Noah's Ark? Critical scholars have determined that 3 (or more) of the epistles in the New Testament that are attributed to Paul are forgeries.

Atheist populations are on decline. There is no morality to live by since there is no scientific physical evidence for it according to atheists. Thus their societies aren't held together as well as Christian societies which value life, hard work and reproduction more. The U.S. still reigns supreme in total GDP and has high GDP per capita especially when you consider the population size while Europe slowly fades. Atheists will claim a country such as Norway as atheist country despite the countries foundations and history built on Christianity and the majority of the population still identifying itself as Christian. It is interesting watching atheist societies falling far below Christian societies in terms of music, art, business, law and even science.

What is truly baffling is their attitudes towards the fact that it can clearly be seen that there are transitional forms between ancient "apes" and modern humans. I grew up with the falsehood that early hominid skulls were just ape skulls or were deformed human skulls. How do they explain the fact that if you have a skull with a larger, more complex brain than apes that it can't be a modern ape? How do they explain the gradual progression of larger brain sizes and that many hominid species had brains as big as ours. but with different skill sets? We now have the technology to be able to actually get an idea of what their brains were like by making an inner cast of the brain case. It actually can tell you about the structure of the brain, not just the size. Many of our ancient hominid ancesters were SMARTER than we are in certain areas and actually were successful species for a long period of time. We are actually the new kids on the block. Of course to creationists all this information is just "Blah, blah, blah.."

"Not a single fossil of a transitional species?" The stupidity here goes beyond ignorance of research. Just use some basic logic. EVERY fossilized animal is a transition between something older and something newer. The exception is if a species was somehow exterminated at the stage where at least one of the corpses happened to be fossilized. In that case, the fossilized species might not have any descendants. My point is that the "missing link" argument is a completely moot point. Filling in one large gap always creates two smaller gaps, which gives idiotic apologists the lamest renewable excuse to continue bashing evolution.

Actually the saying is: "Never argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"

As a former pastor, this is unfortunately common. People who believe in a God have contributed greatly to science. The big bang theory came from a priest, genetic inheritance came from a monk. They want to understand God's creation, not deny its existence. Nature itself is the best demonstration of how God thinks. Religion focuses on why and who, science focuses on how and what. Religion is like psychology, it is about human thought not facts.

This seems so real. Doesn't seem to be scripted. This is how religious people argue. 😂😂😂😂

If the transitional fossils had easier names perhaps they would be easier for arguement.
