Steven, you are really stoo-pid. Richard Dawkins teaches the universe came from "literally nothing." Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't get anything from "literally nothing." We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. God is the reason for us and all we have. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gM99pN1_xL-3iIk.html “However improbable the origin of life might be, we know it happened on Earth because we are here.” -Richard Dawkins. We only get life from life...the law of biogenesis. We can't get anything without God. The odds are NOT there. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZePfqiHxqndkXU.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r71pmsSo38Cwo58.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msqRpLam2dqZkas.html No, the eye did not evolve into various eyes. Your mere chance mutations are absurd. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jp2YZauIyLrbkWg.html Even Dawkins admits we can't know what is true because of natural selection... The God Delusion, “Since we are creatures of natural selection, we cannot totally trust our senses. Evolution only passes on traits that help a species survive, and not with preserving traits that tell a species what is actually true about life.” Oh, but Dawkins knows what's true about life...killing those who don't meet his expectations for living. dailycaller.com/2021/05/19/richard-dawkins-down-syndrome-roe-v-wade/

@@roberthawkes2023 Evolution is a fact. The theory of evolution explains those facts. A theory in science is different from how we use it in everyday language. A scientific theory is the interpretation of observations and facts; the pinnacle of achievement in science. Correct, we are not monkeys. We share a common ancestor with them. This is just one of countless examples that creationists don't understand how evolution works. We are all that our ancestors were. We are still apes; we are still primates; we are still mammals; we are still tetrapods; we are still vertebrates; we are still animals; and we are still eukaryotes. Evolution is basically that populations of animals change over time. The most commonly known aspect of evolution is natural selection which is the idea that organisms which are most suited to their environment will survive longer, therefore have more offspring, and therefore their genes will be more prevalent in subsequent generations. This has been observed. Another definition is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations - or to put it another way; change in allele frequencies over time. That is a FACT, no getting around it.

This is not to top and he also suffers the idea that he knows waht God would do he pretends not to exist if you look at his giraffe video - which btw is a Dawkins worship video if you ask me, but again, thats subjective and you may say he has deserved it. But hey, according to his definition he is a mass child abuser and student abuser and lets just for a second imagine that the bible is right on eternal justice for criminals then Dawkins will have more pain at his hands then Hitler and Stalin together. Dawkins is either foolish and irrational (some say illogical = irrational =insane) or a gifted deceiver or both.

You may want to work on your grammar & spelling though, as it contributes to your incoherence, which is already near the extreme due to your religious fanaticism." >>> Sure I am a fan of my world view, are you not? Why are you writing me? To get your thoughts more clear? To defend your religion (of course you have none, right?) To be honest, I have no clue what you mean here, since I usually dont write much about what I believe to be true, so please tell me what you are referring to here. The subject cant be Evolution since it is not religious or is it? I consider it a gullible faith which makes many people who kind of militantly believe in it - religious. Some I have met are true religious fanatics about their faith. Its shocking how they can put a good old roman catholic or believing muslime to shame. Anyway, lets see what else you got, but please dont forget to inform me what you think about my religious content in order that I may understand you. Sadly I have not much time to learn English. So if you are unable to catch the content please move somewhere else unless you have a religious need to mission and to convert me to your faith/religion - then I will understand your desire to understand me correctly.

If you are not among the task force of that sect - just dont feel triggered at all and smile and watch the games. You: " If you misinterpret logic & reasoning for "ranting", then you will forever be unable to engage in dialogue with people." >>> I understand what you are saying here, but you presume that you have reasoned logically. I have not seen it yet. See, there are people out there who believe that the theory of evolution is a good sound their and that evolution is a fact. Great faith! But is just deception. And they brag and wallow in their supposed scientific educated enlightened superstition. Is such not painful to see? What say you? How can one think that random mutation and natural selection is writing complex software? Whats wrong in the mind?

You may play with words and make yourself happy to tell yourself you are not religious. Fine. Ok. I see it rather simple: There is ONE true religion out there since I believe that truth real exists. And if your faith is not that true one then you have a false religion. So you can call it a false faith - fine with me. Believe that you have no religion but faith - fine, be happy! You: "The one thing I do believe is that you have 600 emails against you; " >>> It was a fictive number but I understand your faith since it fits your faith! I get this one.

How nice you love being stoooo-pid too. Richard Dawkins teaches the universe came from "literally nothing." Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't get anything from "literally nothing." We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. God is the reason for us and all we have. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gM99pN1_xL-3iIk.html “However improbable the origin of life might be, we know it happened on Earth because we are here.” -Richard Dawkins. We only get life from life...the law of biogenesis. We can't get anything without God. The odds are NOT there. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZePfqiHxqndkXU.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r71pmsSo38Cwo58.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msqRpLam2dqZkas.html No, the eye did not evolve into various eyes. Your mere chance mutations are absurd. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jp2YZauIyLrbkWg.html Even Dawkins admits we can't know what is true because of natural selection... The God Delusion, “Since we are creatures of natural selection, we cannot totally trust our senses. Evolution only passes on traits that help a species survive, and not with preserving traits that tell a species what is actually true about life.” Oh, but Dawkins knows what's true about life...killing those who don't meet his expectations for living. dailycaller.com/2021/05/19/richard-dawkins-down-syndrome-roe-v-wade/

O’Rourke, American Journal of Science 1976, 276:51] “It cannot be denied that from a strictly philosophical standpoint geologists are here arguing in a circle. The succession of organisms has been determined by a study of their remains embedded in the rocks, and the relative ages of the rocks are determined by the remains of organisms that they contain.” Rastall, R. H., “Geology,” Encyclopedia Britannica, vol. 10 (1949) University of London. P. 168 “Paleontologists cannot operate this way. There is no way simply to look at a fossil and say how old it is unless you know the age of the rocks it comes from.”[date the fossil by the rock] Eldredge, Niles “The rocks do date the fossils, but the fossils date the rocks more accurately. Stratigraphy cannot avoid this kind of reasoning if it insists O’Rourke, J. E Evolution is based on two faulty assumptions: 1. mutations make something new and 2. natural selection makes it survive and take over the population. Evolution is a religion of death not life. “No matter how numerous they may be, mutations do not produce any kind of evolution.” Pierre-Paul Grasse, Evolution of Living Organisms 1977, p. 88 *They rearrange existing information but do not increase genetic complexity * . “In all the reading I’ve done in the life-sciences literature, I’ve never found a mutation that added information. . . . All point mutations that have been studied on the molecular level turn out to reduce the genetic information and not increase it.” Lee Spetner, Not By Chance!: Shattering the Modern Theory of Evolution (Brooklyn, N.Y.: Judaica Press, 1997), 131, 138. “Natural selection may have a stabilizing effect, but it does not promote speciation. It is not a creative force as many people have suggested.” Daniel Brooks “A downward Slope to Greater Diversity,” Science, Vol. 217, 24 September 1982, p. 1240 “Natural selection can act only on those biologic properties that already exist; it cannot create properties in order to meet adaptational needs.” Parasitology, 6th ed. Lea & Febiger, p. 516. Survival of the fittest does not explain the arrival of the fittest! By the way: “Survival of the fittest” is a tautology. Q. Why did it survive? A. Because it is the fittest. Q. How do you know it is the fittest? A. Because it survived. ^ circular reasoning if survival of the strongest or fittest was real, then humans would'nt even exist today. There are many animals in the animal kingdom much stronger and fitter than the average human. or even the strongest human. if you find a fossil in the dirt, all you know is it died. you can't prove it had any kids, and you sure can't prove it had different kids

Paul K Paul K the age of a rock is determined by measuring the relative amounts of radioactive decay products in the rock sample to their parent material (the decay products accumulate at a known rate). From this ratio and the decay rate, you can easily determine how old the rock is. This technique is called radiometric dating. So everything you said about circular reasoning of geologists is flat wrong. Sorry man, I’m not trying to be rude but you really need to know that. Also, I think you said something like evolution falsely assumes that mutations lead to changes. Evolution does not assume that. Who told you that?... Most mutations have either no effect on phenotype or a negative effect (in which case the organism is less likely to survive in its particular environment). Over time, whole populations of organisms accumulate and pass on beneficial mutations, so their phenotypes change to make them better suited to survive and reproduce in their environment. I didn’t exactly read all of your referenced quotes, but I did see one that said something like: I have not seen a mutation that adds “information” to the organism. What on earth does that mean? Finally, in regard to your argument that humans shouldn’t have even survived based on natural selection because they are way weaker than other animals on the African savannah. I’ll challenge that argument... Sure, I’ll grant that a single human is really weak compared to other animals. But what important ability do we have that none of the other animals have?.. The ability to communicate complex thoughts through language! This allowed us to build effective tools, coordinate hunts and easily bring down animals that are much bigger, stronger, and dumber than us... Hopefully that example can help you see that fitness is not simply about individual brute strength.

count69 here are the “elements” of evolution: 1. Every time DNA replicates, there is a small chance that the replication enzymes will make a mistake (i.e., mutation) and produce a new strand with a slightly different sequence. 2. Mutated DNA will either lead to 1) no effect on the organism’s likelihood to survive or reproduce in its environment (i.e., fitness), 2) a negative effect, or 3) a positive effect. 3. Mutations that lead to increased fitness are more likely to be passed down to future generations, so over time a population of organisms will accumulate mutations. Mutations that lead to decreased fitness are less likely to be passed down, so these mutations tend to not accumulate in populations over time. Mutations that don’t affect fitness have neither an increased nor decreased likelihood of being passed down to future generations. These are really the basic features of evolution. They have been observed time and time again... That is really what science is all about: finding explanations of natural phenomena that reliably explain observations. And in that regard, the theory of evolution is on par with the theory of gravity. They both explain their respective natural phenomena with high reliability.

“He released the two seas, meeting [side by side]; between them is a barrier [so] neither of them transgresses.” That is the quote. That is reletively specific and from 1400 years ago, that is insane (and not even mentioning the hundreds of other facts). The term transgress merely means, that, the salt water cannot take over the other density water. They meet, but Do Not transgress, exactly how the quran states. I understand it was hard for you to understand, but dont make false statements and just falsify the entire religion and quran off a statement which u did not properly understand. All the scholars say this, and if you want to make your own definition of a statement in the quran, you have the right to do so as we we live in a ‘free’ society.

@@deanmoncaster the article that you read was written to prove that sediment rich rivers and generl ocean water do indeed mix. The quran does not refer to this example as this photo took place in 2010. Alaska and modern day saudi arabia are on different parts of the map. by giving this example, you r assuming that prophet mohhammed saw something similar to that photo and made that verse. "He is the one who has set free the two kinds of water, one sweet and palatable, and the other salty and bitter. And He has made between them a barrier and a forbidding partition." Modern science has discovered that in estuaries, where fresh (sweet) and salt water meet, the situation is somewhat different from what is found in places where two seas meet. It has been discovered that what distinguishes fresh water from salt water in estuaries is a “pycnocline zone with a marked density discontinuity separating the two layers.” The human eye cannot see the difference between the two seas that meet, rather the two seas appear to us as one homogeneous sea. Likewise, the human eye cannot see the division of water in estuaries into the three kinds: fresh water, salt water, and the partition (zone of separation). heres another articlewritten a couple monthsafter than the one u linked www.geologypage.com/2017/11/atlantic-pacific-ocean-not-mix.html read what it says "It’s not two oceans meeting, its glacial melt water meeting the off shore waters of gulf of Alaska. The reason for this strange phenomenon is due to the difference of water density, temperature and salinity of the glacial melt water and off shore waters of gulf of Alaska, making it difficult to mix." this does not contradict wht the quran says because, they become part of the otherbodyof water, butdo not transgress. transgress would refer to a body of water overtaking another,which does not occur.
