Brilliant. No, really. You atheists are special.
Don't call me "friend" when all you and your pals do is attack and criticize me, and in the present case, with extremely ignorant grammar.
tsk, tsk

You can't even write simple English. Good job you can nitpick my spelling and grammar . Too bad that's not a refutation of what i wrote or linked . Just more evidence you have nothing substantive to say.

Your deceptive arguments are your relentless atheist claims of being oh-so-intelligent and rational and scientific.
Despite all this claimed intellectualism, you can't write simple English.
When presented with compelling opinions of scholars, you call them "out of date."
Yes, like Darwin? Since when was calculus "out of date" because it was invented by Isaac Newton?
Absurd, like so many of your flip answers.

Assertion .And to be frank that sounds more like you so far .
Quote:Despite all this claimed intellectualism, you can't write simple English.
Einstein couldn't tie his shoes and was not good at some elements of math . I can't write in english very well . Newton believed in alchemy . That in no way calls into question my intelligence or theirs . So again ad hominem.

So your denying that ideas can be out of date even the" Opinions" of "Scholars" (apologists) ? Your saying nothing in hundred years has changed in biblical studies. And that nothing that lead to the quotes above could have changed or been shown wrong (they have) ? And yes Darwin's model of evolution is out of date and has been replaced with modern synthesis . And Newton's conception of calculus has been updated as well. So this whole line of reasoning is fallacious.
Quote:Absurd, like so many of your flip answers.
Some one here is being absurd . But it's not me i'm afraid .

Hi, Starman. I would like to give you something to think about:
If I were to compare you to a Christian tyrant of the past (for example, any king or church figure who ordered the torture and killing of non-believers), I suspect you would be offended by the comparison because you aren't in the habit of torturing or killing.
Likewise, I find it grossly offensive when you compare me, a law-abiding citizen who happens to be an atheist, to some madman from halfway around the globe. Take Stalin, for instance. He may or may not have been an atheist -- in fact, he spent some time in a religious seminary in his earlier years -- but he was also a Communist politician, spoke Russian, and had a moustache. I have far more things in common with various Christian co-workers and acquaintances.
Criticize atheism all you want. Don't attack the characters of people you don't even know and will probably never meet. It's rude, and there is an extremely high probability that you are bearing false witness.

You don't have people clamouring to follow mosaic law anything like sharia, which is the actual law people live under in many places.

Yes, Darwin is out of date. He knew nothing about genetics, for example. And when genetics was combined with Darwini's ideas, those ideas were changed and became a better model of reality.
Yes, Newton's fluxions are out of date also. NO mathematician does things using Newton's methods any longer. Those methods have been improved, extended, and simplified, not to mention put on a much more solid logical foundation (which Newton's ideas did not have). Newton would not have recognized the calculus you took in college (assuming you did).
Yes, Biblical scholars from late 19th and early 20th century are out of date. A great deal of archaeology, as well as literary criticism has been done since them which make almost anything said at that time out of date in the subject.
As for the constants of the universe proving the existence of a creator, do you have *any* evidence those constants *can* be different than they are? (answer: no). Do you have any evidence that they are not in a stable equilibrium of some sort that forces the values we see? (answer: no). Is there any evidence of anything being able to change the values of those constants? (answer: no). Have you investigated any natural processes involved in the setting of the values of those constants? (answer: no).
So, exactly how does that imply a designer?
