Now not on my phone, so I can expand a bit...
Oh, maybe it's because I live in Europe!
There's no way to verify:
1.a - Is the bible the word of god?
1.b - Is there a god to begin with?
1.c - How has this "Word of God" traveled to human minds and to the paper?
1.d - is the bible true?
1.e - is the bible honest? (as in written by who it claims to have been written)
How can this person know anything about any creator being?
All the stars we observe, emitted their light years ago (except for the sun, that was 8 minutes ago). By measuring anything about the stars, we are measuring how they were back when they emitted that light, not how they are now.
Apart from that, there's no reason to even consider, let alone assume, that any of the laws of physics changes with time.
This guy is racist, but knows people aren't very fond of racists, nowadays, so he tries to shift attentions away from him...
Also, a terrible misunderstanding of what the Theory of Evolution states.
It's like this person saw the drawing made at the time of Darwin mocking his work and got his impression of the Theory of Evolution from that one drawing.
Where does the second law of thermodynamics disprove evolution?
Right next to the part where it disproves the conversion of metalic rocks into aluminium cans?
Some people need to be called ignorant and stupid quite a few times, before they start questioning what their leaders are feeding them.
Also, call his leaders liars... that may nudge it a bit.
"If you got that information from anyone else, then that person was lying to you... think about who it is that you are following... a liar, a con, a deceiver..."

1. The Bible is the Word of God, the ultimate truth. God knows more than humans, since He is omniscient by definition, so anything He says is true. Therefore the Bible is true.

(July 8, 2014 at 3:49 pm)Baqal Wrote: 7. The second law of thermodynamics, which is part of science, disproves evolution. A scientific law contradicts a scientific theory, therefore the theory isn't true.Derp. Ignorant.

I'm now curious. How would've you responded to his statements?
