Here's why Creatards might be right

Your god is, at the very least, not as small as you thought he was.  Apparently, if he exists, he can go completely hands off.  Feel free to argue against facts till you're blue in the face, make your god as small as you need him to be to feel comfortable?

i never considered God to be small or constantly directing nature

I really don't understand why you not only just don't "get" evolution but you also seem opposed to it.

I'm sure you have your reasons... I hope you come to realize that life can be just as awesome with a belief in evolution... because when it comes to logic evolution actually makes a lot of sense.

I like you Jenny and you're nice... but because I understand how natural selection works doesn't make me a "religious atheist" : there's no such thing as a religious atheist.

i understand and believe in evolution and im not opposed to evolution at all why do you think im against evolution i

what i mean by a religious atheist are those atheists who believe that they have everything all figured out just like religious people believe that through their theories that they have faith in that they have everything figured out

Or, are you simply talking out your ass for the sake of hearing your own voice. Because that's what it sounds like. Your views on the Big Bang and evolution are fundamentally and laughably wrong yet you come here spouting shit as if you actually know something about them.

Please, enlighten us on all the education you've received on these topics.

some science guys believe in evolution +  Intelligent Design scientists have different theories they dont all agree

So, that would be no education then. Cool. I can freely ignore your comments as completely irrelevant.

Now, I'm sure you're going to object on the grounds that you're just giving your opinion. I'll just nip that right here. Until you understand enough about science to recognize the difference between a scientific theory and a casual theory (wild assed guess) you don't know enough to even have an opinion.

Go educate yourself before your complete and total ignorance embarrasses you further.

Apparently you do.  Gods so small that he has to fuck with the controls for any of this to have played out as it has.  Doesn't matter to you that this is factually untrue...and you've plainly stated that nothing will disabuse you of your belief. That educating yourself about that which you are plainly and demonstrably wrong could only further convince you that you are right.

I need some confirmation, if you would please, on an item. I'll repeat.

Evolution is not random.

Oh so you do believe in evolution then? You just don't think the origins of life came about without a god?

yes exactly

No, not exactly, lol.... Jen?   You don't know what evolution is to believe in it in the first place, that you even consider it an issue of belief is hilarious.  Cmon.....

Natural selection is the driving force in evolution... the genetic mutations is a random(ish) element but that merely allows the possibility of genetic variation it doesn't drive the variety or anything else in nature at all - natural selection is the driving force in nature and natural selection is absolutely not random Smile

So how have you managed to get it so wrong, then?  You just weren't paying attention? Everyone knows this stuff....except you?
