Probably you did not get my point Maybe , evolutionism can not be proved beyond any reasonable doubt It is ridicoulus to expect that this theory may have the same evidence as the physical laws The point is that creationism can be refuted beyond any reasonable doubt Since there are two only alternatives , evolutionism is the true theory Right. Because it makes much more sense to believe that matter created itself and then evolved into a dinosaur
You mixed up two topics a) the existance of matter b) the existance of life the former is not a mistery any more for modern physics According to the Heisemberg's principle of indetermination " the existance " is a natural state It seems a paradox but the "non existance" needs a destructor rather than " the existance " a creator " Obviusly it is not an intuitive claim but it is supported by lab evidences The latter is still a mistery since nobody can explain how a bulk of molecules can turn into a living organism The mere chance is definitly excluded even taking into account milion years and bilion stars I ask you a question Given for granted assumption a) Suppose that in a near future scientists can create in lab,living organisms Would you change your mind ?

Probably you did not get my point I got your point. What makes you think that you got MY point? You mixed up two topics a) the existance of matter b) the existance of life No, they are not mixed up. You need matter to exist before you can determine that matter has decided to become alive. You cannot have a word without letter, you cannot have organic molecules without carbon. You cannot have carbon life forms without matter. The point is that creationism can be refuted beyond any reasonable doubt Since there are two only alternatives , evolutionism is the true theory Right. I understand your point, the problem is that you dont understand MY point. There are only 2 alternatives therefore in the absence of proof of one, the other must exist. Dont be so arrogant as to think that I cant understand you. Your point is simple, I just disagree with it. I think that you are 100% wrong. It is 100% inverted from the truth. the former is not a mistery any more for modern physics According to the Heisemberg's principle of indetermination " the existance " is a natural state It seems a paradox but the "non existance" needs a destructor rather than " the existance " a creator " Obviusly it is not an intuitive claim but it is supported by lab evidences Its absolutely ridiculous that anyone would actually consider this as a possibility, it is completely non-sensical.I will ask you this: WHERE_DID_THE_MATTER_COME_FROM? The latter is still a mistery since nobody can explain how a bulk of molecules can turn into a living organism The mere chance is definitly excluded even taking into account milion years and bilion stars I can explain easily. God created life as we know it. He created the major phyla and imprinted within them the dna code to adapt to a variety of environments. Given for granted assumption a) Suppose that in a near future scientists can create in lab,living organisms Would you change your mind ? Or suppose you die and see God for yourself. Would that change YOUR mind?

Typical reaction of creationist I saw a discussion between Dawkins and an evangelist Not even an evidence to support his opinion , just an accuse " Dont be arrogant mr Dawkins !" You got My point ? no doubt about it The point is that you did not answer Are you seriously claim that Dino's and men have lived together in the eden ? If you believe in creationism you must believe it as well as thousand others absurdities Its absolutely ridiculous that anyone would actually consider this as a possibility, it is completely non-sensical.I will ask you this:
WHERE_DID_THE_MATTER_COME_FROM?
I already told you where it comes from The principle of indetermination By the way it is called "principle" but it is actually a law which can be demostrated both in theory and in lab I can explain easily. God created life as we know it. He created the major phyla and imprinted within them the dna code to adapt to a variety of environments.
See the cartoon
Or suppose you die and see God for yourself. Would that change YOUR mind?
Yes I would I understand it is an embarassing question but it is far away from being a theoratical question Bio engineering is definitly very close to create life in lab What kind of explanation would you provide in this case ?

Or suppose you die and see God for yourself. Would that change YOUR mind? Sure i would. But honestly i haven't seen a single evidence for the existance of any god. That's why it's called faith, it's not provable, just faith. And so is creationism. It's based on faith, not facts. I could also believe in the holy flowerpot, and say the earth is made by composting everything to its right shape. Prove me wrong. Haa, you can't, it's my faith. And no matter what you say, it was the holy flowerpot and composting that made the earth, plants and animals, including humans There is unfortunately no fact that would point in the direction of creationism or in the direction of my holy flowerpot. There are tons of proveable facts that points into the direction of evolution though. This bacteria thingie here is just one. One of the most obvious things is the animals that made Darwin develop its evolution theory. The Darwin finch. You can even see one of this finch species divide into two subspecies at the moment. Or just think about domestic animals. Breed is also evolution. A chihuahua or a poodle is pretty different from a wolf. And this evolution even happened in the timeframe creationists thinks the earth exists. Initial description of poodle happened in end of 19th century. When there is no evolution, how could a poodle happen? A wolf with black hair, okay, but ow does a poodle fit to the creationistic theory of no evolution? Yes there were humans involved. But breed follows the same evolutionary principles: mutation and selection.

WHERE_DID_THE_MATTER_COME_FROM?
I already told you where it comes from The principle of indetermination Otherwise known as the principle of : "You dont have a clue where it came from." I understand it is an embarassing question but it is far away from being a theoratical question Bio engineering is definitly very close to create life in lab What kind of explanation would you provide in this case ? Its not embarassing for me at all, as I have said, I am in college now, I had biology as a major before I switched to math, plus I have studied biology extensively on my own. I know_what_it_takes to have this discussion, do you? What is your definition of "creating life in the lab"? Do you even know what your asking? Are you talking about something as complex as e-coli, being a eukaryote with reproductive ability? When you say that bioengineering is close to doing it now, what, specifically are you referring to? Hopefully not those sacks of phospholipids we have been hearing about. Other than that I can tell that you have an extreme bias against faith and Christianity and I am not interested in flame wars and arguments, I have a lot more important things to do. Thank you.

It's based on faith, not facts Well I wasnt talking to you. But I guess you want to be in some kind of flame war even though Im pretty sure you dont even know your own theory. therefore you can go fly a kite, Im not interested in haveing this discussion with you.

Flame war? Nope. I thought this is a normal discussion. It was all about arguments. Which you are not willing to discuss it seems ^^
Anyways. When this goes into a flamewar then count me out.

After studying bio and math why dont you switch also to physics ? Do you even know what your asking?
A little arrogant, isnt'it? no problem You really dont know that bio engineers are already able to create microrganism capable of performing specific task ? For the time being they get started from existing DNA and other cell components but the microorganism is a brand new one P.S. No news about dino's and men living togheter ?

After studying bio and math why dont you switch also to physics ? I am taking physics also, but my major is math/computer science. I am only interested in Newtonian physics as it applies to real-life motion laws. Only as they apply to games, because I want to be a GAME_PROGRAMMER! Can you believe it!! And here I am on a game_programming_forum! What a cooincidence! No news about dino's and men living togheter ? I never_said_they_did. What you are doing is projecting the beliefs of every creationist you hate upon me. I am different from other creationists, we are all different, we dont all believe the same way. You really dont know that bio engineers are already able to create microrganism capable of performing specific task ? For the time being they get started from existing DNA and other cell components but the microorganism is a brand new one
No I really dont. Where is your source?
