+124 Creationists don't seem to understand that a scientific hypothesis can only be proved right by proving it null hypothesis wrong. And, since evolution and intelligent design are not even close to being null hypotheses of each other, pointing out flaws in evolution does not strengthen intelligent design, amirite?

There is more than the Christian definition of creationism out there. Ever hear of 'first cause'? I hate dumb atheists and their lack of understanding of how creationism can actually mesh with science.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I hate dumb religious folks who can't seem to understand that evolution and creationism can't mesh like you try to claim. And the first cause argument is a load of crock fyi.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Vice Versa as well, Christians who can't consider how creationism can mesh with science.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I never said it doesn't "mesh with science". What I am saying is that it is not properly presented, which causes it be ridiculed by the scientific community. But since you called me dumb without fully understanding what I was saying, I will now insult you by saying that creationists theories are stupid and baseless.

I never said YOU didn't say it didn't mesh, I don't think he/she did either but to claim that creationists are the only ones that can't consider the alternative in their logic is false, because religious people often do that as well.I don't think he called you dumb either, I think it was just an attempt, and a good one, to counter argue your claim about dumb athiests..

aaa oh well, we had the same thing to say

Thank you

You shall now continue your biased, unfounded bashing of "dumb athiests"...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I don't know who you think said what...but proxy never said anything about dumb atheists...it was the first anon who said that, the one you supposedly agree with? Re-read posts please....or else please help me stop being so confused by half the things you're writing.

Zebra. Oh yah I agreed w/2nd anon, let's get at least that straight.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That helped out a lot. thanks.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

wait... what?? Are you trying to confuse me or is my brain de-evolving? Why would I bash atheists? I am one! I was bashing the first anon for calling atheists dumb.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yah for some reason I thought you were the first Anon!! HAHAHA This is a messsss:)

Lol. Oh well. Its all cleared up now. :)

First cause argument: Everything has a cause, including the universe, so let's create an unobservable deity who- for some reason- doesn't need a cause, to explain how the universe was created instead of realising that by the laws of quantum mechanics it is perfectly plausible for the universe to exist without a cause.

Okay so I am a Catholic and I'm not close minded enough to ignore the evolution theory. Yes, I do believe in creationism as well, but it is possible! I can't deny the scientific research proving evolution and how animals adapted to certain areas. Do I believe humans came from monkies? Well, that is pushing it. But I do think evolution is true.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

What's your reasoning behind believing in evolution yet doubting the evolution of humans?

by Anonymous 11 years ago

What makes humans so special?

by Anonymous 11 years ago

If I hear ONE more person more person say that evolutionists believe humans evolved from monkeys...you fail biology forever

by Anonymous 11 years ago

This relates more to previous comments than the post itself, but oh well: I believe in evolution and creationism. It really is possible, in my opinion. It's known (and by known, I mean if it is in fact true) that God took more than one day to create everything. But the thing is, He didn't actually create the sun until after a lot of the stuff was made, so we don't know how long the "days" listed before that were. They could have been millions of years, and in that time, who's to say some species weren't wiped out/changed? This may get downvoted like crazy and I may get a lot of replies about how my logic is totally flawed, but I was just trying to give one example of how creationism and evolution can coexist.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

Thats a new spin. But then theres the fact that the sun is needed for all living things to survive...ie photosythesis. I dunno ...I like that people try to let the two coexist instead of just dismissing science , but I honestly think there are just to many intellectual hoops to jump through to make it work...

Good point.

Relevant quote from Sherlock Holmes- 'It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts'.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

But intelligent design is the contradicting theory, so pointing out evolution's flaws does strengthen intelligent design. Evolution actually has multiple flaws in it anyways. For example, if evolution is true, then there shouldn't be any monkeys. Also, life cannot come from non-living things. Spontaneous generation was proven false a while ago. That's why evolution is false.

agghahgahgahgahgavcfuyg;p HUMANS DID NOT COME FROM MONKEYS or at least not modern ones. We share a common ancestor to them. This anscester looked more like a monkey than a human which is why people who suck at biology get confused. aka: modern monkeys and modern humans came from one common anscester. We are like evolutionary cousins.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

proven false? wow I would have thought that a scientific breakthrough like that would be something I would have heard of.... Biology classes the world over would have to be re-evaluated. Cant believe I didnt hear that on the news! I cant actually work out how you can 'prove' something false. Thats like...theists's prime argument against atheists belief that there is no god. "you cant prove there isnt" I must conclude therfore that your entire comment is invalid.
