The troll will wait until everyone else is bored and he's got two or three consecutive posts that have gone ubanswered, then he'll use links to this thread as evidence that he defeated the evil atheists.

All the other pigeons will ignore the scattered pieces and shit splatters and be impressed.

No, I've been physically and emotionally well, therefore I still think creationism is a claim with no supporting evidence and promoted and believed by those with truly weak minds.

Yep.  You're a dumb fuck.  But I figured that out on page 1.

Yes, "Be careful what I wish for". Actually, CDF47 was somewhat entertaining, until he wasn't.

He was never entertaining. He was pathetic and his attempts to woo us to the dark side, failed miserably.

One thing I realized about the "design" argument is that it seems to require hard determinism, in a very strange way.

Let's say Mr. God wanted to have humans, for some reason. He could have just made them instantly, but if you have even a vague interest in reality, you know that didn't happen. Instead he hatched an extremely long winded plan for us to end up here. He set in motion some ridiculously long chain of events so that we would evolve. That's stupid for so many reasons, but I'll leave that aside for now.

If there was any kind of randomness or agency possible in our (sub)reality, then there would be no guarantee that humans would actually have evolved like we did. In fact, it would seem extremely unlikely, since the tiniest change could throw the whole plan off at almost any stage. So if humans were the goal, then there must have been hard determinism at work, it would seem. Otherwise there was every chance that the "plan" would fail.

Of course, any numb-nuts definition of "God" that includes it knowing the future also implies hard determinism. You can't predict the unpredictable. Knowing the future means there only is one possible future.
