Looks interesting.

Apparently, this program/software/hardware analogy of the real world is the same approach that I recently discussed in another thread that I started:

Quote:A miracle? If Scientists can do it in a lab, by simulating conditions that Earth was capable of creating, surely you don't maintain that it was anything miraculous, or divinely sparked.

It takes little to impress a jesus freak.

Who knows, maybe in a few centuries creationists and IDers will actually be printing articles containing scientific results, instead of a bunch of silly quotes by a post-doctoral fellow who coauthored a paper once.

The quote you took out of context from a man who not only disagrees with your position, but disagrees with the position you made it look like he supported in your quote?

Unrepentant liars tend to do that to me.

I bet it Snowtracks looked hard enough he could find quotes from Martin Luther King that are racist against blacks, or Eli Wiesel that is "anti-semitic." That would carry about as much weight.

This from the guy who believes that a magic man spun the universe off of a finger-tip.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
