Salty, something that is proven is fact...it simply is; there is no need for "support". Do you understand that you're making a claim that men have worked very hard to make for a very long time, but have been unable to. If it was fact, there would be no debate...give me a break Salty, you're losing credibility at an alarming rate.Originally Posted by saltydawg

Evolutions ENTIRE agrument is based off fossil records.Originally Posted by saltydawg
Sorry, TD, but I don't have any FAITH in evolution. The problem is that religion is irrational and you are trying to make it fit in an increasingly rational world.Originally Posted by tylerdawg
No, I don't have any questions about the Biblical account of the world's origins. Just like I don't have any questions about other religions views on the world's origins. BTW, the devotees of the other religions believe that *their* version is the only correct one because they too have faith. So, faith really doesn't mean much to people outside their particular religion.
Science is not faith-based.
Not true.Originally Posted by tylerdawg
And, for the last time because you seem to refuse to understand, evolution and much of your "proof" isn't nearly as scientifically significant as you think.Originally Posted by saltydawg

There is a "debate" because evolution conflicts with certain religious beliefs.Originally Posted by johnnylightnin
Still waiting for you to tell me where your fingernails came from.
Ok, what is scientifically significant then about the orgins of the world?Originally Posted by johnnylightnin
My fingernails came from my cuticle...duh. I can't give you scientific facts about the Biblical origins of the world because I wasn't their to observe it. Stick this in your pipe and smoke it...something can't evolve from nothing, thus, there was a starting point, evolution can't address this issue. Second, the second law of thermodynamics is in direct contrast to the entire theory of evolution. Things do not move toward order, they move to disorder. This is actually a law Salty, not merely a theory.
What is insignificant about the Theory of Evolution is it's supporting evidence. You've taken an answer, and built a question around it. Taking the posibility of creation out of the equation is like asking someone to answer what 2+2 is and restricting the answers to everything but 4. It's lunacy. Pick up a quantum physics journal one day Salty. Once you have a grasp of how complex the most minute things are, you'll understand the holes in evolution...but, I don't think you really want to understand. I think you want to be contrary and consider yourself as part of the intelligencia...have at it buddy. If you ever sit down and rationally go over your options, you'll begin to understand. I'm not saying to throw the theory of evolution away, teach it, I don't care. What I'm saying is, don't give me the reason for not teaching Creation is because it's not scientific. Evolution violates one of the most monumental laws of science...if that's not anti-scientific, I don't know what is. Equal time for intelligent design is all I ask.

Johnny, care to put some meat on these bones?

TD, the 1st and 2nd Laws of thermodynamics applies to closed physical systems. They do NOT apply to open biological systems. So your argument is not valid.Originally Posted by tylerdawg
The origin of the universe is an entirely different matter than the evolution of life here on the planet Earth. Assuming that the Christian God created the universe, that does not preclude the possibility that He allow evolution of life on planet Earth to take place.

Okay Salty, explain where it all began.
