    [_ Old Earth _] Did God Use Evolution

    No, they made him renounce his science under threat of torture and then placed him under house arrest for the rest of his life, which was a fairly weak punishment compared to what the church did to others.

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    That doesn't make it a divinely inspired holiday any more than the Crusades were the whim of God. It's a Pagan holiday as much as it's a Christian one, more so even.

    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect - 1 Peter 3:15 Well since we don't have to source then I think I'll go ahead and say that there was...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    I could also swear that there was nothing in there about stealing a holiday from the Pagans in order to convert them then celebrating Jesus' birthday on the drastically incorrect date of December 25th. It's a secular holiday that some people afford special meaning to, the Pagans, the...

    [_ Old Earth _] Did God Use Evolution

    As far as I know only 2 churches are against evolution; the Southern Baptists and one other who's name escapes me.

    [_ Old Earth _] The Cambrian Explosion: Evidence Against Evolution?

    The Cambrian Explosion is as much evidence against the theory of evolution as objects falling at 9.8ms-1 in a vacuum is evidence against the theory of gravity.....

    [_ Old Earth _] If humans evolved from apes, where is our tail?

    What's a tail for? Swinging around in trees. Once we came out of the trees and started to use tools we had no use for tails, and thus they were removed. See a tail? Only tree-faring apes have tails.

    [_ Old Earth _] Did God Use Evolution

    (Not a Christian) By definition an omnipotent being can do anything. If you say "If God exists, can he [insert action here]" the answer is ALWAYS yes. So yes, he could have used evolution lol. I've always found it odd that you take the commandment to sell everything you have and follow Jesus...

    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    Correct, I cannot disprove God's existence, but it's not my job to, the burden of proof is on you to prove him. So in order for me to believe I have to believe? If you can't provide some evidence then I have no reason to believe. I propose the same thing about Krishnah, therefore you are wrong...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    In order for there to be freedom of religion there must be freedom from religion. I do not see why you wish to have enforced prayer sessions to Jesus, the ten commandments (but no other religious/non-religious ornaments) placed all over public property. What you're really arguing is that the...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    It's not about the phrasing X-mas lol, Christians reckon that people aren't thinking of Jesus when they share. You didn't have it first, the Pagans did lol, but you've assigned some value to it and I have no problem with that. I have no problem with this, do what you like on Dec. 25th lol. The...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    I'm not particularly apt in the birth of Jesus, I do however know that it wasn't anywhere near Christmas as far as we can discern, Christians only adopted that day because Pagans didn't want to give Christmas up (obviously they wouldn't call it that lol). The majority of the world (33%) loves...

    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    **Sorry for the double post, but the maximum allowed characters is 15,000** I cannot express how much I agree with you. If you want to say that there is no God then you have to provide evidence for this (impossible since you cannot disprove an omnipotent being, or really any being, you can't...

    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    Yes, but it occurs purely through naturalistic processes, it rises out of the properties of water. Sure, God may have created those naturalistic laws (I don't deny that God could have started it all lol, but we have no evidence of this and therefore no reason to believe it). It's an...

    [_ Old Earth _] Is evolution based on racism?

    Is gravity murdering because it hangs people by the neck? Lol. Racism is when you unjustly make a racially stereotyped comment or action. Evolution doesn't stereotype black people for example, it just points out that they're black, is that racist? Charles Dawin might have been a racist but I...

    [_ Old Earth _] Was Jesus an ape?

    If you're saying that he came down as a human then yes, his body was an ape lol. Most people are just discouraged because "YOU APE!" has come to mean that you're stupid or ugly in our society.

    Hehe, well good luck with that :)

    [_ Old Earth _] Does Christianity defy evolution?

    Correct. No, Science hasn't made a conclusive ruling on that yet. The evidence would seem to indicate that as part of a quantum fluctuation, a singulatity spontaneously inflated into a vast field comprising matter and energy in a constantly expanding fabric of space and time, causality also...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    Exactly what I mean, I don't have a problem at all with with people assigning Christian, Pagan or other religious significance to the day, it's none of my business lol. Merry Christmas to you too.

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    I'm not saying they should endorse it, but I don't have a problem if they do. The whole idea of public holidays is to have a break and celebrate, as evidenced by Independence Day, President's Day, etc. It's a day that our society has decided to get together and share on, which isn't a religious...
