Psalm 137:9
RE: Psalm 137:9
You didn't understand what I wrote, did you, Godisgood? You seem to have trouble with a lot of things, including non-English phrases and very common English words.

How old are you? What school grade did you finish?

I think that a natural source is the more likely of the two, considering that science has yet to find any empirical evidence to support the existence of supernatural beings.

Amino acids, the foundation of more complex molecules like RNA and DNA, have self-assembled in chemical solutions comprised of simpler but very common compounds.  The elements that life requires (Hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen) are not confined to Earth -- they're all over the solar system, and probably in most planet-containing solar systems in the universe.

DNA formation from inorganic matter may be an uncommon process, but it doesn't have to happen constantly.  Once it does start -- and there are lots of opportunities for it to start over the span of billions of years -- it can become a continuous process.  I expect to see spontaneous DNA synthesis in a laboratory setting in my own lifetime, probably in the next 5-10 years.  Once we have that, we will know that life can arise from non-life via strictly chemical means -- although I suspect there will still be believers who will insist that their god somehow made it happen.

God could have chosen to create humans in any way He desired. However, Scripture records the particular way He did create—using both natural material (dust) and supernatural power to give humans a unique place in the cosmos. The recipe of dust of the earth + God’s breath emphasizes the supernatural power of God and the fragile nature of humanity. Human life is completely dependent upon God, and, as a result, humans are called to worship the Lord and to serve Him only.

Until you can demonstrate that your god actually exists and is not just a fictional being, it's pointless to speak of how it could have chosen to do something. That is an existential fallacy.

I dont know what this means.


And you saying its silly nonsense is your opinion!

No shit . . . it's my opinion.

Sharp as a bowling ball, aren't you?

You still haven't done anything but make assertions. When are you going to treat us to your AIG talking points?

And soon as you are open and sincere and willing to hear what I have to say. I can tell that if i bother to provide a link to AIG, you will turn it down within seconds. So can you tell me that you will be sincere and be willing to read what i show you or not?

When it does happen, you will have to take science just a wee bit more seriously.  Big Grin

You're not telling us anything that we haven't already heard literally hundreds of times.  Some of us were even Christians ourselves.

It wont because it isnt logical and it violates the law of biogenesis.


Can we please move to a different place?

I'm willing to cut you a little bit of slack, then.  If you plan to go on to college, please try to improve your reading and writing skills when you can because you'll need them in order to write acceptable term papers.

So you've kept up to date with the articles that AIG posts often? And ICR as well and Creation.com.

In your opinion the site is filled with nonsense. Why it that difficult to understand?

You are saying that as though none of us are familiar with AiG. Ken Ham is a known liar, not only of creationist arguments. Literally everything written on his agenda-driven site has been debunked time and again.

And please learn to quote.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

And I guess Bill Nye isnt a liar when he says that its an observed fact that everything has been observed to have come about by natural processes even though it hasnt???
