After the church junk, I actually feel more at home here, since I have gone through the absurdities the same way as many of you. Don't be too upset at me sharing this stuff. Where else do people talk about problems with Church and Science. Back tomorrow after work, Thanks, Rick. 
Sorry, couldn't get any further than that first sentence.

Serious questions: were you ever dropped on your head as an infant? Suffer any other head trauma? Have a paint huffing habit?

Well, maybe if your standards weren't so high you'd get some action now and then.

Of course evolution has a lot of truly within it, I wouldn't even wast my time trying to argue about it.

Holy fucking shit, my hypothesis has been confirmed like gangbusters over here.  hock:
RDK, you do understand that you know literally nothing about how evolution actually works, right? Will that piece of information penetrate the thick layer of delusion surrounding you?

Why are you so thick? Clearly intelligence is indeed impossible to assemble from the random atoms that HE is made from. He may not know anything about anything else, but he does know himself.

Stupidity is an integral part of him, not an outside addition. So it can't be driven out.

Perhaps a catholic exorcism will do, no?

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

It's amazing what can be assembled with human intervention, or intelligent design to direct things. There was nothing random about this thing happening. Would this have ever happened if nobody ever made it happen?
Perhaps... Is there anything to gain from it?
Nature tends to make do with the simplest materials... Why carbon based life, instead of Silicon?
