RE: Better terminology for "Father and Son" ?

How many times do I have to say that I was there six million years ago? I know precisely what happened and how, because I saw it.
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 they still don't believe you but rather believe anonymous writer of "Genesis". I mean WTF!
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

No, you've CONVINCED us that you're delusional. So, until we see evidence to the contrary. All you are showing is that, for some reason, people grow into adulthood still "believing makes it so".

GC has a strange way of showing gods love. Maybe he should leave it to people better equipped?
He seems to be cheifly consumed with arguing that he isn;t crazy for seeing ghosts, but I don;t think that many people care all that much whether or not he sees ghosts. They wonder why seeing ghosts made him such a nasty person.
Particularly if it's a love ghost he's been seeing?
The question isn't really specific to GC's delusions, it can be asked of a large swath of christendom. How is it that the Prince of Peace somehow leads to their threats and bigotries and inanity? How does deference to the lord of the cosmos and final, righteous, arbitrator of morality somehow lead directly and necessarily to predictable moral failure?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I would highly recommend you read this link, especially given your propensity to misrepresent the very misconceptions listed as scientific facts.
If you're really interested in truth, as you so vociferously claim, perhaps you can simply type "evolution observed in nature" into google (or click here as I've done it for you) and get your ignorant self educated

Yes, GC, you are quite deluded. You believe a fairy tale as truth.
Yes, GC, you're making a sales pitch whether you recognize it or not.
That one question you wanted an answer to... Why don't you restate it here, or at least link me to the post. I must have missed it, especially if it was in one of you walls of text. After all, it's hard to sort through your drivel, especially when you speak as if English is a second language.

So you are projecting by saying that I'm confused while in your confusion you fail to explain why you constantly put Jesus and evolution in the same context and yet claim that evolution never happened.
I've never associated Jesus Christ the creator with evolution, you are flat out lying or you are confused, take your choice but one of the two are true and possibly both.
(September 13, 2017 at 9:41 pm)Godscreated Wrote: Evolution has never been observed in nature, period , and a statement that it has would be a lie.
Oh so you're on a holy mission of lying for Jesus. Too bad for you that your lies are are easily disproved since evolution is observed in nature all the time. Like evolution of language: Spanish, Italian, French, and Portuguese all evolved from Latin. Each of these newer tongues emerged via a slow accumulation of their own unique lingo, occasionally acquiring new slang, abbreviations, or terms adopted from other sources (these are analogous to genetic mutations, BTW). Thus, the original Latin diverged into new dialects and eventually distinct forms of gibberish such that the new Romans could no longer effectively communicate with either Parisians or Spaniards. Take that novel "Don Quixote" which is old enough that in its original form, it isn't yet Spanish, but it isn't quite Latin anymore either; it is an intermediate form.[/quote]
Evolution and Jesus Christ have nothing to do with each other, what's the matter can't you read.
Give me one instance where evolution was ever observed.
That's about as ridiculous a statement on evolution as anyone could produce, but coming from you I'm not surprised.
Grow up.

There is no truth in you worth possessing. Perhaps someday reality will give you the kick in the pants that you so desperately need, and you'll grow up and stop believing in stupid things. I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for that to happen, though.
You're smart not to, you would meet your creator and judge sooner than you might have had to. What I posses is a gift that couldn't have come in any other manner. A gift you do not have and thus can not understand.

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.

I think that you mean to ask whether or not speciation has been observed, ofc.... it has been. Here are nine examples, more than you requested, limited just to plants. Enjoy.
Quote:5.1.1.1 Evening Primrose (Oenothera gigas)
While studying the genetics of the evening primrose, Oenothera lamarckiana, de Vries (1905) found an unusual variant among his plants. O. lamarckiana has a chromosome number of 2N = 14. The variant had a chromosome number of 2N = 28. He found that he was unable to breed this variant with O. lamarckiana. He named this new species O. gigas.
5.1.1.2 Kew Primrose (Primula kewensis)
Digby (1912) crossed the primrose species Primula verticillata and P. floribunda to produce a sterile hybrid. Polyploidization occurred in a few of these plants to produce fertile offspring. The new species was named P. kewensis. Newton and Pellew (1929) note that spontaneous hybrids of P. verticillata and P. floribunda set tetraploid seed on at least three occasions. These happened in 1905, 1923 and 1926.
5.1.1.3 Tragopogon
Owenby (1950) demonstrated that two species in this genus were produced by polyploidization from hybrids. He showed that Tragopogon miscellus found in a colony in Moscow, Idaho was produced by hybridization of T. dubius and T. pratensis. He also showed that T. mirus found in a colony near Pullman, Washington was produced by hybridization of T. dubius and T. porrifolius. Evidence from chloroplast DNA suggests that T. mirus has originated independently by hybridization in eastern Washington and western Idaho at least three times (Soltis and Soltis 1989). The same study also shows multiple origins for T. micellus.
5.1.1.4 Raphanobrassica
The Russian cytologist Karpchenko (1927, 1928) crossed the radish, Raphanus sativus, with the cabbage, Brassica oleracea. Despite the fact that the plants were in different genera, he got a sterile hybrid. Some unreduced gametes were formed in the hybrids. This allowed for the production of seed. Plants grown from the seeds were interfertile with each other. They were not interfertile with either parental species. Unfortunately the new plant (genus Raphanobrassica) had the foliage of a radish and the root of a cabbage.
5.1.1.5 Hemp Nettle (Galeopsis tetrahit)
A species of hemp nettle, Galeopsis tetrahit, was hypothesized to be the result of a natural hybridization of two other species, G. pubescens and G. speciosa (Muntzing 1932). The two species were crossed. The hybrids matched G. tetrahit in both visible features and chromosome morphology.
5.1.1.6 Madia citrigracilis
Along similar lines, Clausen et al. (1945) hypothesized that Madia citrigracilis was a hexaploid hybrid of M. gracilis and M. citriodora As evidence they noted that the species have gametic chromosome numbers of n = 24, 16 and 8 respectively. Crossing M. gracilis and M. citriodora resulted in a highly sterile triploid with n = 24. The chromosomes formed almost no bivalents during meiosis. Artificially doubling the chromosome number using colchecine produced a hexaploid hybrid which closely resembled M. citrigracilis and was fertile.
5.1.1.7 Brassica
Frandsen (1943, 1947) was able to do this same sort of recreation of species in the genus Brassica (cabbage, etc.). His experiments showed that B. carinata (n = 17) may be recreated by hybridizing B. nigra (n = 8) and B. oleracea, B. juncea (n = 18) may be recreated by hybridizing B. nigra and B. campestris (n = 10), and B. napus (n = 19) may be recreated by hybridizing B. oleracea and B. campestris.
5.1.1.8 Maidenhair Fern (Adiantum pedatum)
Rabe and Haufler (1992) found a naturally occurring diploid sporophyte of maidenhair fern which produced unreduced (2N) spores. These spores resulted from a failure of the paired chromosomes to dissociate during the first division of meiosis. The spores germinated normally and grew into diploid gametophytes. These did not appear to produce antheridia. Nonetheless, a subsequent generation of tetraploid sporophytes was produced. When grown in the lab, the tetraploid sporophytes appear to be less vigorous than the normal diploid sporophytes. The 4N individuals were found near Baldwin City, Kansas.
5.1.1.9 Woodsia Fern (Woodsia abbeae)
Woodsia abbeae was described as a hybrid of W. cathcariana and W. ilvensis (Butters 1941). Plants of this hybrid normally produce abortive sporangia containing inviable spores. In 1944 Butters found a W. abbeae plant near Grand Portage, Minn. that had one fertile frond (Butters and Tryon 1948). The apical portion of this frond had fertile sporangia. Spores from this frond germinated and grew into prothallia. About six months after germination sporophytes were produced. They survived for about one year. Based on cytological evidence, Butters and Tryon concluded that the frond that produced the viable spores had gone tetraploid. They made no statement as to whether the sporophytes grown produced viable spores..
