When I bred my mares with jacks I got mules. Which are sterile. I understand the idea behind evolution. Would not reject it as one of the tools that God uses to accomplish His plan. Just do not see any compelling evidence for it.

... wow.

Just... wow.
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.'

Nor will you ever, dumbass.  Thanks for demonstrating that you don't know shit from shinola about evolution.

You know what?  You stick to your fucking bible.  It's obviously all you can handle.  Leave the heavy thinking to the adults.

Ha! I don't know about you city folk but I never once saw a squirrel and a cat make a sea otter. Checkmate, you heathens. I think we can all say you clearly painted yourselves into a corner on that one.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.

It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.

Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

I love how this thread actually took this turn. The Joker never made me laugh, but Pete and the responses to him are cracking me the fuck up. Hilarious Thank you.

Most hilarious part to me is Pete probably wrote that like he was about to drop the god bomb on us. Like "try this one on for size, atheists!"

My home village has 550 inhabitants, and I sure saw our dog *try* mate with literally anything.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Poor Pete seems to equate evolution with randomness. That isn't it. Try again, Pete. Mutations are random but rare. Useful ones which get passed on are rarer still. That is why most matings result in type alike offspring. Even when a useful mutation occurs, it will a slight and limited change, not a wholesale change affecting many features. You may not be allowing for a robust enough amount of time to go with these slight, rare changes to eventually result in major changes.

Evolution is not an "accident" it is a process that I am not going to bother to explain to you. I'm sure many people have pointed out your error before.
But what I think you are in your inept way are arguing against is abiogenesis. Non life becoming life. Now here there are a few ideas of how this can happen and scientists have come a long way with modelling and experimenting.
But we can be sure of one thing and that is that supernatural stuff did not do it.

Type 1 is is a "Magic trick" it seems like a magic but it is fake and Type 2 is a "Supernatural Magic done by a spirit".  Spirit Magic is a real phenomena whereas fake magic like tricks are fake. We have not found any natural process other than evolution you are placing your hope in blind faith in the hope that other natural explanations will come along in the future, we can't go beyond what we know. But above all, why would think that evolution is true?

Supernatural magic is not a thing. This will be my position until there is evidence to the contrary. Because do you know what has been properly researched and studied and found to be supernatural.....nothing not one thing EVER.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
