Of course since Bible reads like instruction manual for achieving a divided, angry, and violent world. It does not appear to be a recipe for peace and unity. It is a very miserable message from a god, since it was able to convince only a minority of people.
Jesus told us to love our neighbors as ourselves, this in itself would do away with any hatred in the world, so you're wrong about what the Bible teaches.

Evolution has been redefined so many times one could hardly keep up with it and most of that redefinition has come because of the work of scientist outside the belief of evolution. No one has ever seen anything change from one type to another, ever. I've seen all that stuff evolutionary science claims and all those things are still the same thing except for some loss of information in DNA. Why is that so hard for you to see.I'm not sure why you'd say that, again, after having gotten examples of it in this thread, not but a few posts back. Yes, we have observed speciation in the lab and in nature. We've even observed the evolution of a new -genera-.....which is a fair few steps "up" the ladder from your weasel words "kind" and "type".
If your rejection of evolutionary biology hinges upon this retarded and oft repeated statement being true than your rejection of evolutionary biology is groundless. What you thought had never happened, has happened quite alot. So, incorporate that, stop lying about evolution, and come up with a new excuse. Similarly, what you think must happen for evolution to be true, has nothing to do with evolution, so stop lying about evolution...and come up with a new excuse.
Wrong, no new info can be added to DNA, so no new creature. Speciation is only a change in a type to adjust to environmental changes and that is a result of loss of information or it was turned off in favor of something more advantageous already present in the DNA, no new info is added.

God isn't going to give you an invitation until you are ready. That's why I also asked you if you knew what omnipresence meant as applied to God, another question you did not answer. Now I know that's two questions but it shouldn't take all that much effort to give me an answer to them.
Do you have any fucking idea how many different variations I've heard about how your gawd "saves," all from people just as certain as you that their version is the absolute word of gawd truth? The same with omnipresence. Now, I know you're gonna want to argue that your absolute word of gawd truth is even truthier than their absolute word of gawd truth. Please, spare me. You have no evidence. You have no facts. You have no knowledge. You don't even have your gawd's words, but the words of men being passed off as the words of your gawd.
It's really very simple GC. I tried to get in communion with your gawd. It answered with nothing. Nada, nil, zilch, absolutely fuck-all. You want me to believe the timing wasn't right? I say bullshit. If your omniscient gawd wanted me, it would have known the timing would never be better. Still the answer was a complete and utter lack of answer, so quit trying to sell me. I'm not falling for the con.
God would not have left you hanging if He had called you. More than likely you were afraid of hell and wanted to avoid it and jumped the gun on God, either that or you were not listening. If you thought there was going to be this big exciting emotional thing going on... well it doesn't happen to everyone, I know because it wasn't part of my experience.
If you're over discussing this with me then I want try any more, you've been shown and now it's all up to you.

From wiki (as good as anything that attempts to explain Mormon befuddlement)
In orthodox Mormonism, the term God generally refers to the biblical God the Father, whom Mormons sometimes call Elohim, and the term Godhead refers to a council of three distinct divine persons consisting of God the Father, Jesus (his firstborn Son, whom Mormons sometimes call Jehovah), and the Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit). Mormons believe that the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost are three distinct beings, and that the Father and Jesus have perfected, glorified, physical bodies, while the Holy Ghost is a spirit without a physical body.[1] Mormons also believe that there are other gods and goddesses outside of the Godhead, such as a Heavenly Mother who is the wife of God the Father, and that faithful Mormons may attain godhood in the afterlife.[2]
This conception differs from the traditional Christian Trinity in several ways, one of which is that Mormonism has not adopted or continued the doctrine that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are of the same substance or being. Also, Mormonism teaches that the intelligence dwelling in each human is coeternal with God.[3] While Mormons use the term omnipotent to describe God, and regard him as the creator, they do not understand him as having absolutely unlimited power, and do not teach that he is the ex nihilo creator of all things.[4] The Mormon conception of God also differs substantially from the Jewish tradition of ethical monotheism in which elohim (אֱלֹהִים) is a completely different conception.
This description of God represents the Mormon orthodoxy, formalized in 1915 based on earlier teachings.
Their belief came from a man of very objectionable character and they put the book of Mormon before the Bible, most only carry the Bible so they will be accepted by others, Christians and anyone else.
The trinity is three persons in One, meaning that the three, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are of one completely like mind. God referred to Himself as we in the 3rd chapter of Genesis after the fall of Adam and Eve.
God the Son is not just the first born, He has always been, Jesus himself made that statement. The first born refers to Jesus being born as a man.
Of coarse the Mormons would say that God isn't omnipotent, for if they were to believe He was then they know they could never become gods themselves.

The rest opf that page is a wealth of information that, as a committed creatard, you will not be familiar with...but everytime you huff and puff like you did above you make a liar of yourself, of christ, and you make a joke of your one true faith.
Gratz.
None of that shows anything other than lost information, no plant became a totally different plant now did it.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
