    Is Yahweh and Allah one?

    I must say I am thoroughly amazed by your aptitude to take verses out of context, even with something as short as 2 John. (And especially considering your signature.) The letter is very clear in what the doctrine of Christ means in the letter's context: And now I beseech thee, lady, not as...

    Is Yahweh and Allah one?

    You should then possibly read my post again. Instead of replying to what I wrote, you seem to be repeating the same old song of a problem being there with the act of appeasement. It seems to be an automatic defense mechanism on your part. How exactly does appeasement figure in what I said...

    No, not British, though granted, I have lived in Scotland for the past three years.

    Is Yahweh and Allah one?

    And your words still are, as often before, harbingers of discord. How about being positive for a change? Therefore go and make disciples of the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. [Matt. 28:19] If you are insecure about how to do this: In the...

    Is Yahweh and Allah one?

    Well, frankly it isn't very clear that you are just poking fun, and it seems you use that as a way to distance yourself from a statement you made which was accepted rather lukewarmly. And even if you were just poking fun, like you definitely are here: -- I really wonder what the purpose...

    [_ Old Earth _] A Summary of This Year's Defeats of Evolution Theory

    I bow out of the discussion, as I feel there are better things to do than run around in a circle. It is unfortunate, because it would have been nice to share ideas in a creative way. Instead, this is how I am made to feel about the whole discussion:

    That is a shame. To be frank, if someone is not capable of seeing, acknowledging and apologizing for one's error when it is pointed out to him, I realize that is as far as a discussion can go. I am not asking you to denounce any of your opinions. I would merely appreciate if you were capable...

    Yes, he was in error. As for the explanation why: he was looking at the things only at the local level, it seems, without seeing the big picture. If you ignore the big picture, you are bound to make erroneous statements. My 'random' means the same thing as your 'random.' The important thing...

    [_ Old Earth _] A Summary of This Year's Defeats of Evolution Theory

    No, it wasn't. If it was, I would have answered more directly. There can be a certain 'intelligence' within the natural process itself, even if you were to detach it from God. The word intelligence in your post wasn't even capitalized to denote it as something more. The word intelligence could...

    As outlined before, the manner is not random. So no, man did not come to be in a random manner. Did he come to be via mutation and natural selection? It is possible. In itself? Yes, I would say so. Do you acknowledge that your question made no sense and had no logic in it?

    [_ Old Earth _] A Summary of This Year's Defeats of Evolution Theory

    If you want a better, more specific answer, you have to ask a better, more specific question. What do you have in mind when you say intelligence? Do you mean God? Then say so and don't wrap it in general nondescript terms. If you don't mean God, please describe precisely what you mean by...

    [_ Old Earth _] A Summary of This Year's Defeats of Evolution Theory

    Yes, they can. But that is not even close to what you were asking, let me remind you: Did man come to be in a random manner via mutation and natural selection or is mutation and natural selection purposeless? Regarding question type, it is the same as (and try following the 'logic' of it side...

    Good question. Are they truly random? Or are they guided? I don't know. From our human perspective they look random, but that is not to say they truly are. Not anything and everything. Definitely not. But getting a positive mutation is statistically bound to happen now and then.

    Banana or polkadot? Does this question make any sense? No. The two are unrelated. Mitsubishi or Honda? Why these two options? Why not Subaru. You cannot take two statements of your choosing and just randomly pit them against each other.

    In a way, you could say that, yes.

    Yes, he seems to think that. At least he calls them random mutations. But whether or not the would make things move in a better direction -- that is the fun of randomness. Most of the time you probably get mutations that do nothing special, really, sometimes mutations that are negative. But...

    Yet it still does not make evolution (even the Darwinian one) a random process.

    :toofunny Please don't use something if you don't know how to, or maybe even without knowing what it means. But honestly, I don't mind this time because it made me laugh out loud.

    The question as you posed it was absurd.
