Smithsonian: How to Talk with Evangelicals about Evolution

[Fort Fun Indiana]

If this were The Imitation Game, I'd correctly say you were a robot.

It's not my fault you can't explain your own ideas in simple English sentences. That's your fault Francis

 

[abu afak]

I already knew you were functionally illiterate, but sometimes you still amaze me with your complete inability to read and understand words.
Here's the full quote that you deliberately mangled so that you could pretend to "answer" something it didn't say, but that you preferred to what it ACTUALLY said:Oh, so Smithsonian Magazine forced you to come to this message board and start a thread about how "brilliantly" you were going to "destroy" evangelical Christians by explaining something they 1) already know about, and 2) don't care about in regards to their religious beliefs, because it doesn't affect them in the slightest?

It is obvious to anyone who is not Fart Fun and who can therefore comprehend the English language that the "they" I was speaking of was Christians, not the people you slavishly worship as your heroes because you mistakenly think that adoring them will somehow convey their intelligence to you by some sort of fanboy osmosis.

Christians are already well aware of evolutionary theory, contrary to the apparent belief of your spiritual boyfriend, Abu. Christians also don't give a damn about evolutionary theory in regards to their religious beliefs, because evolution is irrelevant to Christianity, also contrary to the apparent belief of your boyfriend, Abu.

I find it heartwarming that you could find a soulmate of the same intellectual caliber as you on this message board, and I wish you and Abu many happy years of babbling mindlessly at each other and pinning clippings from Smithsonian to your walls together.

One can be an evangelical and believe in evolution, Just like Pat Robertson now acknowledges 'Million of Years old."

Religious doctrines change, or most do. The most indoctrinated just get to be funnier and Funnier.
Even the Saudis are lightening up a bit.

2) The genetic structure of even the simplest life form on Earth contains a complex code equivalent to 1,000 encyclopedias worth of information. Christians believe that coded information that complex requires an intelligent being to code it. Atheists believe that non-intelligent natural forces can create it randomly.

Best study what Christians and atheists truly believe and don't believe.

Godless libs cant stand the fact that people of faith exist

Evolution is the best explanation for the origin of life on Earth that fits the existing observations and evidence

Evolution is the best explanation if you insist on denying the Word of God.

Yup.
Religious doctrine changes to keep the tithings and donations coming in.

Of course, Faith is nothing more then believing in made up shit with no proof.
So yes, there are plenty of people who believe in made up shit.

Do you honestly believe we could understand how the entity called God created the universe if He chose to explain to us the scientific details? We barely have a grasp of quantum mechanics and the creation of the universe or the many universes probably involves physics far beyond that which we comprehend today.

Plus if God did tell us how to create a universe you can bet we would take some of that knowledge and use it to develop weapons that we would employ to destroy ourselves and possibly this planet if not the entire solar system or maybe even the galaxy.

We lack the maturity to handle the processes involved in creating a universe.

Vladimir Putin's nuclear tsunami: It's called Poseidon - a giant torpedo that could travel thousands of miles undetected before swamping cities with radioactive waves. No wonder fears over the Russian threat are growing, writes TOM LEONARD​

Vladimir Putin's nuclear tsunami

TOM LEONARD: The Poseidon 2M39 torpedo would set off a chain of deadly radioactive tsunamis that would smash into towns and cities leaving them uninhabitable for decades.

Are you saying God has trouble communicating ?

I am saying we have trouble understanding.

The scriptures are woefully silent on the subject of dinosaurs and DNA.

Why do you care?

Is Satan offering a bounty on fallen Christians?

Yet you can't eke out a single argument to support your crybabying.
