He's a loser, is all. We only get life from life...the law of biogenesis. We can't get anything without God. Richard Dawkins teaches the universe came from "literally nothing." Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't get anything from "literally nothing." We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. God is the reason for us and all we have. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JiMqzN_YSXU.html “However improbable the origin of life might be, we know it happened on Earth because we are here.” -Richard Dawkins.

Here is some interesting information that you may not want to hear! Dr E M Spieker. Professor of Geology at Ohio state university quote from “The Genesis Flood” page 209. Does our time scale [referring to the invented geologic column] then partake of natural law? [In other words is it proven science?] No, I wonder how many of us realise that the time scale was frozen in essentially its present form by 1840. How much geology was known in 1840? A bit of Western Europe none too well and a lesser fringe of eastern Northern America. All of Asia, Africa, South America and most of Northern America, were virtually unknown. How dared the pioneers assume that the Ideal Geologic Column would fit the rocks in these vast areas by far the major part of the world? Only in dogmatic assumption and in many parts of the world, notably in India and South America, it does not fit. But even there it is applied! So flexible and accommodating are the facts of geology! [My comment- I would say myself, so flexible and accommodating are the so-called facts of evolution and so evolution is built upon a frame work of lies].

it is unscientific to discover nanoscale machines capable of precise catalysis, communication and signalling functions, adaptive responses to novel environmental cues, all requiring a base 4 encoded information as software. this software can only operate with a unique and arbitrary operating system to translate code into function which performs self-referential operations, edits itself, and specifies other nanoscale machines which work cooperatively to copy that same software, and call it zero proof of an intelligence behind it. this software can evolve, but demonstrates periodic updates and patches to produce novel new structures and functions, like caterpillar to butterfly, each using different biomolecules for energy and raw materials. were the same found on a planet where large wooden warehouses were run by wooden robots running on software of notches on long lines, capable of harnessing fire as energy source, there would be zero doubt of its "un-natural" origin. Any intelligence capable of what the nano machines found in cells can do and back-coding it into DNA base sequences, with sequences which operate and regulate the rest as a cooperative distributed instruction net is certainly "god-like." I must reject any primitive, unscientific belief system which say, "Life just happened."

@JungleJargon The myth of the Flood has been so well explored! It didn't even exist in Jewish myth until the return of exiles from Babylon, it was brought back by them and adapted from the Epic of Gilgamesh. There is absolutely no evidence in the geological record of a world-wide flood, the physics of it is impossible, the concept of literally putting every species of animal onto a wooden boat is hysterical and utterly impossible and the process of re-releasing them all equally ludicrous.

​@@InshushaGroupieNot quite true. If there is a God, it existed eternally, so it has no beginning or creator. It existed outside of time. There is no infinite regression. Events themselves (such as the birth of the universe) created the time/space continuum.

​@@taxusbaccata9200 The question is one of regression. If something exists, it requires a creator. Whether that creator is eternal is irrelevant, it requires a creator because it exists. Also, if spacetime begins with the universe, concepts like "eternal" have no meaning. Eternal is a measure of time, which you're applying to something 'before' time. If spacetime begins with the universe, we can't even talk about a 'before' time.

@taxusbaccata9200 Год назад
@@InshushaGroupie The whole argument of my concept of eternity is counterintuitive, I know. I understand it. We exist in time and can conceive of time because we are temporal beings. Because we are temporal beings we have a beginning and an end and are constantly in flux. If an all powerful God existed that needed a creator, it would be proof that this God was not all powerful, but perhaps that which created it was and then so forth down the regressive chain of creators. This idea is absurd. The idea that infinity has a beginning and end is absurd. Think of it as a donut shape. No beginning and no end, but just is.

@@hwd71 let's take this step by step. the first step involves looking at the primordial earth four point seven billion years ago there it is mostly wet very warm and with an atmosphere composed of all sorts of gases hydrogen, hydrogen cyanide, methane, and ammonia. among them DNA is a long chain molecule made from just four different types of nucleotide so the first question is where did the nucleotides come from. in 1961 hydrogen cyanide and ammonia were left to stew in an aqueous solution in a laboratory under conditions very similar to the primordial earth. left alone, the solution produced adenine one of the four nucleotides that make up DNA. once nucleotides formed the next step was to join together to make chains called poly nucleotides. in the 1980's researchers found that a clay called Montmorillonite which was abundant on the primordial sea floor and in hot pools of water on land is the perfect catalyst for this process some of these long poly nucleotide chains like ribonucleic acid or RNA are able to make copies of themselves. the copies aren't always perfect mistakes creep in but some imperfectly copied molecules would have been better adapted to the environment than others. these successful molecules continued to replicate and pass on their traits while weaker or less well adapted molecules would have broken apart over hundreds of millions of years. RNA grew more complex the single strand became a double strand and the better adapted DNA molecule evolved. one of the differences between RNA and DNA is that DNA needs proteins to replicate itself. proteins are made of amino acids which are often called the building blocks of life so where did the first ones come from? The same experiment that produced nucleotides from a primordial broth of ammonia and hydrogen cyanide also produced a lot of amino acids and long chains of amino acids called polypeptide montmorillonite. it turns out is a natural breeding ground for all kinds of complex organic chemicals. as DNA molecules replicated themselves they shared their environment with other chemicals that thrive in montmorillonite clay. one group called lipids have a natural tendency to clump together to form spherical structures called micelles. RNA or DNA molecules that attracted these lipids would therefore find themselves protected inside and my cell membrane because they were better protected they better survived and replicated more successfully. there you have the first primitive cells they look nothing like the complex cells we have today for a very good reason. over 3.7 billion years they've evolved. the theory of evolution which has been around for 150 years and has overwhelming evidence to support it. You see? no imaginary god. Dont use the god of the gaps fallacy because it makes you look like a fool.

@JungleJargon No, the Epic of Gilgamesh is a description of a local flood. The Biblical Flood story is a derivation of this Epic. We know this because we have earlier examples of the Epic of Gilgamesh, and typically Babylonian imagery in the Flood story. We also have evidence of a series of localised but devastating floods in the region. The world is full of local flood myths, because floods are common events. But there is absolutely no evidence of worldwide flooding.

No, they are not the same. No, I don't admire Dawkins. We only get life from life...the law of biogenesis. We can't get anything without God. Richard Dawkins teaches the universe came from "literally nothing." Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't get anything from "literally nothing." We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. God is the reason for us and all we have. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JiMqzN_YSXU.html “However improbable the origin of life might be, we know it happened on Earth because we are here.” -Richard Dawkins.

@JungleJargon Evidence against the Census as described: Galilee was not a province, no Census was held in a province. We have hundreds of examples of this fact. Luke's dates contradict Matthew's. One has to be wrong. No census ever required people to return to place of birth. No census was ever throughout the Empire. No census was ever held by a client kingdom. Luke was not intending to write literal history, he was writing for a specific audience who wanted specific things.

I think one of the principal reasons creationists cling to their mythology is Human exceptionalism. Some may be "animal-lovers", but they don't want to be related to other animals. "Animal" is used daily in this culture as a term of abuse, and the uneducated don't want to believe that we are animals, even. Another is what is encapsulated by the old Jesuit saying: "Give me a child to the age of seven, and he is mine for life." The story their parents told them is more precious to them than reality, and they feel under threat. As for those converted to creationism, they are like the adolescents who follow cults.

"Please supply one transitional fossil, Darwin and today's evolutionist will tell you there is not one been found in the millions that have been found." the word species, in evolution, is not quite so black and white. all creatures are transitional, they all are continuously evolving. therefore, all fossils are transitional. we group fossils together by similar traits.

my point is that the argument "god did it" explains nothing. it explains our universe to an extent, but if the universe WAS created by god, we couldn't understand the universe without understanding the god-iverse. "god did it" is NOT a simple answer at all, it asserts the existence of the most complex being imaginable.

I am an atheist and I certainly wouldn't say science can explain everything. Science has only been working on these problems in any real sense for a couple of hundred years and look at what light it has shed on the nature of things! 100 years ago, science said the milky way was everything in the known universe and the sun was at it's centre. Now science has learned so much more. Unlike religious belief, science is always searching for real truth and ready to abandon ideas shown to be false.

@TheAnubisDrake It was a typo of 1,000 years that I forgot to correct. It is corrected now and it doesn't make that much difference anyway.

Actually science can explain everything - in time. Just because right now at this moment we don't know everything does not mean that the method does not work. Every day, week, month, year, decade, century, millennium, and epoch that go by we learn more and more about the way the world works, out bodies, minds, the cosmos. Everything. Just a hundred years ago there were so many things that people didn't know that we now know and take often for granted in knowing them.

@zed1207 The census had to do with the house of David and both Yoseph and Miriam were of the house of David so they had to go to the City of David so they could be taxed. They were taxed, Matthew was a tax collector. The Romans did tax the people. Neither Yoseph nor Miriam were born in Beitlechem, they were of the hous of David. It all depends on how you count the census which took more than a year. You don't know about it because you were not there.

@zed1207 The record says the did return to the city of David to be taxed. The record says there was a census, how do you think they taxed the people? They were taxed so they did have a census, it is that simple. Quirinius was in some capacity of authority at the time whether officially or unofficially, whether a helper or the one in charge. It is a non-issue. They were taxed so they had a census. Someone went over to Judea and took the census to tax the people.

@DahPianoNut I can see mechanisms that have a maker , I cannot see any mechanisms that do not have a maker. The function of hydrogen in life forms do work in mechanisms. Since all working parts have a maker, hydrogen has a Maker too and the Maker of hydrogen is the Maker of the entire universe consisting primarily and initally of hydrogen. The stretching out of the fabrication of time space determines the laws of nature, constants that determine the functionality of hydrogen.

@theELUSIV It is not about "interaction" or "design", it is about function that is ordered which requires a Maker. Everything is in accordance with relative laws of physics. The Maker of the fabrication of time space made most of the most common elements to be working parts in life forms when ordered to work. Obviously, the Maker of the relative laws of physics is able to alter or manipulate them. We should expect that from the Maker of all matter. He made laws for us to know Him.

"You need to look at your morality.... Lying is wrong." I would object if religion was taught in a science class. I would also much prefer if no religious indoctrination took place in my daughter's school. I'm not sure if "lying" is the right word for what a person with a religious belief is doing when they express their belief. A lie is a known untruth (i.e. the person saying knows it isn't true). I think my morality is more complex than deontological statements like "lying is always wrong".

The scientific explanation is more factual from an empirical point of view but there is also intuitive or esoteric knowledge which has value.
