    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    I have done that many times - a Designer could have repeatedly used existing species in situ as the blueprint for constructing more advanced species. That is why genetic similarity supports common design as well as it does common ancestry. C'est la vie.

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    Actually, it is your theropod to bird evolution that is suffering a meltdown - scientists are no longer buying that worn-out myth. And your notion that Augustine was on your side kind of crashed and burned - didn't it? He thought the world was created about 5600 BC - how does that allow for the...

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    kalvan - where have you been hiding my friend? Why don't you provide your "evidence for which evolution exists" on this thread. Remember, we are not talking about beak size on finch populations (biological evolution) - we are discussing man-chimp common ancestry (evolutionary mythology).

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution stopped after billions of years.

    No fallacy and you miss the point entirely - classical Darwinism is what it has always been - naturalistic and atheistic - you can't change this truth. Your dilemma is reconciling your version of Darwinism with the Darwinism of Huxley and Dawkins, et al. It can't be done - they do not allow God...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution stopped after billions of years.

    Not if you buy into classical Darwinism...In the evolutionary pattern of thought there is no longer either need or room for the supernatural. The earth was not created: it evolved. So did all the animals and plants that inhabit it, including our human selves, mind and soul as well as brain and...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution stopped after billions of years.

    Surprise - homology supports common design as well as it does common ancestry. The existence of homologous structures merely raises questions of relationship, but it cannot answer them. This is why Stephen Gould remarked that homology supports common design as well as it does common...

    [_ Old Earth _] What is your opinion?

    The Bible is the evidence. The evidence from Scripture is by far the best evidence for creation. No better evidence can be imagined than that provided from Him who is not only the only eyewitness observer, but who also is the embodiment of all truth. All Christians should be content in His...

    Per Feduccia, Archaeopteryx was a true bird - you struggle.

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution stopped after billions of years.

    I know that bird respiratory systems "stands in stark contrast to that of other animals". I know that theropod dinosaurs did not have avian lungs. I know that avian respiration is a tricky question and not likely to be preserved in the fossil record. I know that we do not have enough evidence to...

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    You are mistaken again--genetics, molecular evidence, etc supports common design. You have provided nothing from science that 'proves' dinos morphed into birds - it is all about science and you missed the boat once again. In you 45 years did you not have to provide any science or was hands...

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    Obviously. I collect and catalog scientific facts and fiction and I find more misconceptions in Darwinism than all other sciences combined - most of Darwinism is based on circularity, speculation and assumption. But you already know this. In De Civitate Dei Augustine wrote that world...

    Well, you completely missed the historical record of Augustine when you thought he supported your Darwinian time-line - you must have been absent the day they covered church history.

    I have seen some of those degrees. What was your field of expertise - not birds - right?

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    Again, I will go with Feduccia - he says it is a 'true bird' not a dinosaur. If you want to keep digging you will need to provide the evidence that Feduccia is wrong - remember, he is the bird expert not you. Will Barb keep digging - my money says he will. And you can't find it - or have you...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution stopped after billions of years.

    LOL - where is your 'proof' via science that theropods morphed into birds? Let me guess, still missing. Feduccia was right all long - yes? You need to get out more often and try to keep up - you are out of date. Today Darwinians are re-thinking theropd to bird - tomorrow...anyone's guess...

    Speculation my friend - pure speculation.

    Really? What kind of "scientist" would that be - political?

    [_ Old Earth _] EVOLUTION - A BELIEVER'S PERSPECTIVE

    Barb - the first rule of holes - "when you're in one stop digging". You're digging, dude. Alan Feduccia is a Darwinist and a bird expert - you are not even a scientist. I am going to go with Feduccia on this one - Archaeopteryx is a 'perching bird' that has nothing to do with dinosaurs. What...

    Do you have to be baptized to achieve salvation?

    Again folks, baptism in water is from God - Jesus instituted and command baptism. Those who obey their lord in baptism are "working the works of God - i.e., doing that which God requires. Sectarian error says baptism is not essential but the Lord tells us the truth...“He that believeth and is...

    Do you have to be baptized to achieve salvation?

    And you are able to judge the hearts of men - how exactly? Did you get this great "power" from God or out of grandiose delusion. The truth remains, the one who is baptized without faith simply gets wet - the one who obeys the Lord "from the heart" via faith, repentance and baptism will be saved...
