'Intelligent Design' is just Cloaked Creationism.

[Manonthestreet]

Both Hollie and you are guessing. That wastes my time.

I suppose most of the time I am a half cheerful agnostic, but I have seen a lot of strange stuff out there to make me wonder.

Your problem is all the archeological evidence for the Bible not to mention the Jews history.

The factual stuff. But angels, talking animals, virgin births, separating the waters, and so on and so on.

If ya don't have miracles I would agree there is no God.

Calypso is avoiding the charge because he is wrong yet again.

right. ater reading what you support for the past four years you think you have the credibility to make a judgment on anyone elses' opinion. Well..I pRAY you are joking.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

My cred is many times moh bettah than yourn, yonker.

You are here for grins and giggles only.

Yeah that would be to hard for a god......derp

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

But why would a god or gods work that way.,

The God of the NT and the OT is just too violent, period. It does not make any sense.

 

[Manonthestreet]

Ya mean miracles......wouldn't you want a God of miracles... ?

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

The meanness of God to individuals and mankind in general makes no sense.

Life isn't fair. Expect to make sacrifices.

That's because you don't have perfect knowledge.

That's certainly a human not a divine, godly response.

"Suck it up, sugar tits, and bend over"?

No, and neither do you have as much knowledge as you thought.

Is just Cloaked Creationism dictated by legal rulings.
Creationism lost standing/rights in schools, so they had to make it sound more science/less religious.
But it too has now lost standing/got outed for the Same reason.


""Intelligent design (ID) is a Pseudoscientific argument for the existence of God, presented by its proponents as "an evidence-based scientific theory about life's origins".[1][2][3][4][5] Proponents claim that "certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection."[6] ID is a form of creationism that lacks empirical support and offers no testable or tenable hypotheses, and is therefore not science.[7][8][9] The leading proponents of ID are associated with the Discovery Institute, a Christian, politically conservative think tank based in the United States.[n 1]

Although the phrase intelligent design had featured previously in theological discussions of the argument from design,[10] its first publication in its present use as an alternative term for creationism was in Of Pandas and People,[11][12] a 1989 creationist textbook intended for high school biology classes. The term was Substituted into drafts of the book, directly Replacing references to creation science and creationism, after the 1987 Supreme Court's Edwards v. Aguillard decision barred the teaching of creation science in public schools on constitutional grounds.[13] From the mid-1990s, the intelligent design movement (IDM), supported by the Discovery Institute,[14] advocated inclusion of intelligent design in public school biology curricula.[7] This led to the 2005 Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial, which found that intelligent design was Not science, that it "cannot uncouple itself from its creationist, and thus religious, antecedents," and that the public school district's promotion of it therefore violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. [15]

ID presents two main arguments against evolutionary explanations: irreducible complexity and specified complexity, asserting that certain biological and informational features of living things are too complex to be the result of natural selection. Detailed scientific examination has rebutted several examples for which evolutionary explanations are claimed to be impossible.

Evolution is just cloaked scientism.

"Suck it up, sugar tits, and bend over"?

How do you know it's not divine? Can you think of a better way for people to discover truth than to experience the consequences of their choices and life's hardships?

 

[ding]

No, and neither do you have as much knowledge as you thought.

That's my point. We don't have perfect knowledge. God does. We don't know God's purpose for us. God does. Life is unfair. Expect to make sacrifices. God did. He's already allowed us to put him on trial and convict him for the world being unfair. But if you want to keep putting God on trial, go for it. There's no peace or joy in doing so but you are free to discover that for yourself.

You don't know that god(s) is/are real. All you have is belief.

'Intelligent Design' is just Cloaked Creationism​

‘MMGW’ is just Cloaked Marxism.

 

[Hollie]

Evolution is just cloaked scientism.

Nonsense. Your cut and paste slogans are a waste of bandwidth. It's stereotypical that religious extremists will deny the science of biological evolution.

 

[Hollie]

Ya mean miracles......wouldn't you want a God of miracles... ?

Seems kind of mean spirited that the gods are expected to do tricks, like "miracles".

Miracles'' used to be extra-special tricks attributed to the gods. Surviving the drive to work being a ''miracle" tends to cheapen the god's brand.

Has anyone noticed that as mankind grew in knowledge, as he learned more of the workings of nature, claims to “miracles” have vanished at an inversely proportional rate?
