Evidence can be demonstrated to be true.
I can claim that light travels at 186,000 miles per second. And that claim can be demonstrated.
How would you go about demonstrating any of your claims that you have posted?
You sound like the two sides of the anthropic principles, you think in only one sided terms; only one way could be right; of course its you're way. I already mentioned the fine tuning of all creation as being deliberate, that was ignored and not accepted. No matter how many light years the sun is away from the earth, if god had not placed them both exactly where he did, they could not co-exist. That is designed purpose, conscious intent- its ridiculous to claim this is not evidence of god! I may as well be debating a wall.
If we did not have a digestive system, we all would die. If we had no heart, we could not exist. if we had no blood, we would not exist. If this is not evidence of purpose and design, I just don't know what is! Evolution did't doit, emergant nature did not do this, it was all in place when the universe was made , put in its place; our bodies had a digestive system from our beginning; the first man had a heart,. a head, a torso and blood; those things did NOT evolve over time./

When you provide it. You have yet to demonstrate the validity of anything you have asserted here.
This is an atheistic rehersed response, just like the Christians do when they debate.

Look, brah. Us being on an inhabitable planet isn't proof that we were designed to be here. We could only exist and have evolved on a planet that could support life. You're AGAIN assuming humans are some super-goal of the universe. We adapted to this planet. This planet was not put here for us.
"If this is not evidence of purpose and design, I just don't know what is!" EXACTLY! There is no evidence of purpose and design. Our ancestors developed circulatory systems by means of natural selection.
You said earlier that you "accepted evolution". Now you post this bullshit:
"Evolution did't doit, emergant nature did not do this, it was all in place when the universe was made , put in its place; our bodies had a digestive system from our beginning; the first man had a heart,. a head, a torso and blood; those things did NOT evolve over time./"
Dude, wtf? They did, demonstrably, evolve over time. We have overwhelming evidence to support it - go look for yourself.
Guys and gals - I think we can just stop trying with this guy now....
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a goddess, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed

So why are you on an atheist forum trying to convince atheists that god exists? After all, according to your belief, you're trying to interfere with god's plan because he wants us to be atheists.
I am not trying to convince anyone of anything. I am here because I have debated atheist on Christian or neutral forums for so long, I wanted to go to an atheist form and experience that.
I could care less what atheist or Christians believe. I just like communicating with people.

Then you'll have to think that atheists accept evolution because we're supposed to. After all, according to your belief, that would be part of god's plan as well because atheists don't believe god created everything.

The Christians who realize they will not change me do that too. Strange similarity.

You do know then, we can talk about something other than god?
Like video games? >.> Or films? Or bitching about Disney?
Join me on the site thread about science and the church.

Right. by the way, I accept evolution myself, much of it.

So when you say 'nothingness', you mean 'somethings' like black holes, big bangs, and worm holes. That's very confusing.

I would be very interested in seeing your proof that something cannot come from nothing.
(June 6, 2014 at 10:45 am)mickiel Wrote: Even an explosion cannot occur without established reasons for it to occur.
You seem to be claiming that if an explosion occurs and we don't understand the reasons for it, it didn't happen. Since I find it doubtful that is what you really mean, perhaps you could clarify.
(June 6, 2014 at 10:45 am)mickiel Wrote: And big bang explosion do not create matter, it destroys matter.
What 'exploded' was the all the matter and energy of the universe that had previously existed in a very dense state. We don't know how long the universe was in that hot, dense state, or where it came from, or if it always existed in some form. There are, however, a number of hypotheses that contradict no known physics that have the disadvantage of being impossible to test at this time. Our problem is not that we don't have any natural explanations for the universe, we have too many. The initial inflation did not create matter and energy, it spread it around.

That is a claim. Care to support it with more than mere assertion? There are animals that can pass the same kinds of tests for consciousness that we use to test consciousness in small children, do you think four-year-old humans lack consciiousness?

Its why more and more teens curse, because more and more adults curse; in this manner we slowly reduce the human language and fill it with negative nonsense. Cursing has hurt our language more than religion.
The actual process is that words that used to be considered 'bad language' enter general vocabulary and stop being considered 'bad' or eventually go out of style, and we make up new words to consider 'bad'. Even signing gorillas make up 'bad words'. It's nothing new, we just don't consider the curses our grandparents used to be that shocking anymore.
