I think it is still amazingly impressive what we have been able to learn. Modelling this reality right up until the very beginnings of the big bang and even predicting our reality's own heat death is some astonishing stuff.

I'd ask what the hell you're talking about, but I know you don't know. What fetid corner of Answers in Genesis did you crib this brain fart from?

This comes from a Cornell University professor.

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.

Can you cite your sources for the "genome miss copying itself" thing?
If pinkie pie isn't real, then how do you explain the existence of ponies, huh? If ponies are real, then that's proof that Pinkie Pie is real. Checkmate, christians!  Heart

I don't have a problem with evolution. I do believe in the big bang theory and all that. Why anyone should be angry at individuals who believe strictly in creationism though, is beyond me.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
