Evolution
RE: Evolution
I think Little Rik is a Theist chat bot that Tibs programmed, just to fuck with us. He and Shells are sitting in their hotel room, in front of a computer, laughing their asses off.
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.

Scientists who built on what Darwin discovered do. But as far as the average person, no, I agree. 

I can't build a car from scratch, as in melt metal, mold an engine block, or mold a frame, and wire it like a factory, no. But, I do understand the concept of a combustion engine, just like I know Adenine, Guanine, Thymine and Cytosine are. 

I don't accept science because I am an expert, I accept science because it works and I have enough knowledge of it to know it beats old mythology every time.

I already told you that it can..pages ago.  We call that artificial selection.  It can also be present in sexual selection...if...the species in question is, itself, conscious to some meaningful degree.  That;s considering consciousness as an agent of selection.  It is, ofc, already considered as a product of an evolved organ.  

Whatever it is you think your religion has to say on the subject of evolution, it doesn't have anything to object to here.

See above. If your metrics for evolutionary theory being a "complete" theory are to allow for and consider both body and mind, then it's a complete theory by your definition. What's the problem?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

No it's even sadder that an adult this paragraph.

 It's sadder still that and adult considers this a serious statement .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.

It's sadder still that and adult considers that the consciousness can be checked and vanish into nothing with the physical death.  Lightbulb

Just a reminder, Rik will be approaching 5 years straight without a single substantive post.

Atheists want a permanent death at the end. Theists want an idealistic never ending life.

Searching for arguments comes later, I think.

It's awesome that some people sincerely attempt to live such hard life. It's enraging that some theists think it's their right to brainwash others in to their ambitions.

It's sad that adults accept  what the actual evidence shows .Instead of wishful (and disturbing ) dreams based on hearsay? Which one sounds more adult ?
