mark24 writes: The posts where you failed to address my points substantively are the evidence. You dodged & evaded. Nothing more. Then you did it again. I'm sorry, honestly. But I can't see what you are talking about. That's why I need you to show me what exactly is wrong with my posts. Thank you.

crashfrog writes: In what way? Pasteur's experiment proved that fully-formed bacteria don't arise spontaneously from a specific sterile broth over a geologically short time period. In what way does that specific finding apply to abiogenesis? But nobody has claimed that bacteria are the simplest possible form of life, or that they're the first common ancestor. Nobody here claims that bacteria were the first product of abiogenesis. Unbelievable... you are still the same... full of demagogy. I wasn't talking about abiogenesis, but I've given an example of a proof and applied it to "accident" and "information - DNA code or cell". Sorry man ... but good try.

crashfrog writes: Well, the word is "demagoguery", for starters, and that's not an argument that refutes my point, that's just calling me names. Moreover you're calling me the wrong name: quote: And I won't let you go offtopic. Even if word 'demagogy' doesn't exist I'm not going to discuss anything about Pasteur-abiogenesis' as it is offtopic.
No, you were. You supplied Pasteur's experiment as an example against abiogenesis. As said, it doesn't matter IT WAS AN EXAMPLE, IT COULD BE WHATEVER ELSE EXPERIMENT, the important thing was> Is it a proof or not? It was not an example against abiogenesis but against spontaneous generation, by the way.
Right, which was improper. Since Pasteur's experiment supports no conclusions about DNA, "accidents", or "information", it's not proper to employ it to support any of your conclusions. Maybe you don't know how an argument works, but it's where you support your conclusions with non-fallacious reasoning. Your premises fail to support your conclusions, so all you've offered is nearly incomprehensible rhetoric. You are typical ignorant. Read an answer above. And if you want to be ingorant again and again I'm not going to discuss with you anything. This message has been edited by yxifix, 08-15-2004 02:17 PM

FUNNY MAN,
before I'll reply you have to answer to everything including this one: "Every human lives because of oxygen which is needed to stay him alive" ... is this a fact?

as for point 4.... read message 225 once again please.
as for point 5 .... you have to show how it is linked with the theme we are talking about... I would answer you quite easily but I'm not going to let you change it's direction. Remember this. This message has been edited by yxifix, 08-15-2004 01:37 PM

Oh, by the way,
as for points 1, 2, 3 I'm not talking about if spontaneous generation is or isn't abiogenesis. I'm asking if it is a proof that spontaneous generation is not possible... Again. Is it a proof? Is it a fact? I don't care about abiogenesis. It was an example. So you can completely rewrite your points 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Thanks. This message has been edited by yxifix, 08-15-2004 01:53 PM

mark24 writes: There is little point in discussing anything with you, your knowledge of logic & science is appalling. You need to go back to basics & be prepared to learn. Please stop this... msg 225 is an example you have no right to talk like this to me.
"Every human lives because of oxygen which is needed to stay him alive" ... is this a fact? Nope, not a 100% fact without checking everyone alive. But we can assert that it is very, very, very likely based upon the positive evidence that everyone we know that has been deprived of oxygen ultimately dies. We have lots of examples. Premise: People that are denied oxygen ultimately die. This is a direct observation where your premises are not, they are themselves assertions. I'm asking if it is a proof that spontaneous generation is not possible... Again. Is it a proof? Is it a fact? It is a tentative conclusion. But then there's no scientific 100% fact, they are all tentative conclusions. But that's because the experiments pertained to the time frame & scale of the theory. Naturally, it doesn't rule out that it can't, & hasn't happened somewhere, because the experiments weren't there at the time. OK, mark. According to your words there is not a proof that a black color is a black. We can stop our discussion right here.
I would be prepared to start a new thread & discuss logic, & how we reach conclusions, if you'd like. But you are just going around in circles reasserting the same things here. That's two posts you have utterly failed to address. The second one was very specific about what was needed from you, & you still managed to avoid meeting the necessary standards. So, do you want to start a new thread? I won't respond to you again here. Well... I have registered here at this forum just because of discussion about a proof against evolution. That's all what I tried - to show a proof. But I see, that, in fact, there is no proof in your world. I won't start another thread, I have no need. Bye.

Ooook writes: Seeing as you have confidently said that it is clear evidence against evolution you must understand it pretty well, so you shouldn't have too much trouble rattling off a simple answer should you? Of course if you don't understand the concept of abiogenesis or (heaven forbid) are completely ignorant of the basics of protein synthesis you will avoid answering the question again, or move the goalposts. Yes I understand pretty well, how DNA code can be created (yes, this is what we are talking about, not how it works). ... you are saying it can "arise" ...so don't talk unimportant stuff... and give me evidence for your premise. I am very very interested. Now we are not talking about abiogenesis but about evolution itself, man, so think before replying.

crashfrog writes: A scientific experiment is never proof. Scientific conclusions are always tentative. So no, it's not proof. OK, so you think a spontaneous generation is possible.Than you also think that it is possible there is a human in the world who doesn't need oxygen to stay alive. And that means you are saying evolution is just your assertion you have no evidence for, nothing more. That means it is the same belief as a belief in God. What a paradox ! OH MAN ! You've just stuck in your own words as mark24 did... You are funny. (do you remember 20+20=40 from discussion with mark24? Don't forget) Thanks for a discussion. I have no need to talk with you anymore. You have just shown to everybody what kind of person you really are.

crashfrog writes: No, it's a tentative conclusion supported by a weight of evidence. Just because scientific conclusions are tenative and not definative doesn't mean they're all assumptions. In fact, proof is the assumption - you can only have a proof by means of constructing a tautology from assumed axioms. The very reason that there is no proof in science stems from the scientific goal of making the least amount of assumptions. Sorry man, hopeless attempt. You are also using stuff you have never seen to "prove" evolution is correct so clearly: A=B=C ....that means I'm talking about A, you are talking about B and C is -> assertion without evidence, no proofs (in your and mark24's terminology). Or you can apply "20+20=40" example mentioned before, doesn't matter really. So again - according to your words Evolution is just an assertion without evidencese. So now it is just a question of belief really (nothing more) for you and mark24 (the others to come)... God or evolution (both the same - only different way of life)... doesn't matter for you both. Sorry you hear the truth, so my last post stands of course.

MisterOpus1 writes: So without falling into this fallacy, what positive evidence has been presented for an Intelligent Designer setting all life into motion? Of course, I have shown an evidence ! Most important posts:
Origin of Life 425 Origin of Life 428 message 226 If it is not a proof, please show me an example what is a proof. Thank you. But you should read more of these two discussions.

crashfrog writes: I'm "proving" nothing. I'm simply saying that the scientific consensus is correct - evolution is the most accurate model of the history of life on Earth. You, on the other hand, are putting words in my mouth that I never said. No. I'm not. Again, you are saying (20+20) ...I'm saying 40.
You know I didn't say that, Y. As mentioned you did. If Pasteur's discovery is not a proof, than you are saying evolution is just an assertion, nothing more. Sorry man, the truth hurts sometimes, doesn't it?
Just because we don't know everything with 100%, eternal certainty, doesn't mean that everything we know is a belief. Science is tenative. It's not just making things up, like you do. In fact, you don't know nothing really. Everything is just your assertion.Sorry again, as I said, I know proved truth is difficult to accept for you. But you have no other choice. You should start to think about yourself from now on.

Ooook writes: And in order to claim that the genetic code couldn't have come about by chance you have to demonstrate that you know what it is and how it works!. For somebody who was bleating so self-righteously about ignorance a few posts ago, you haven't actually shown that you understand much. To prove me otherwise all you have to do is give me a few sentences describing protein synthesis, but for some reason you are refusing to do this - if you don't have a clue about it just say so. Believe me, it is not important... we can call it just information. But nevermind:
quote: I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY NOW. Or should I start also with RNA? So now I'll repeat my sentence once again: Yes I understand pretty well, how DNA code can be created (yes, this is what we are talking about, not how it works)
You have presented the genetic code as evidence that there was a designer and that evolution is impossible, and I would like you to clarify this position. This seems like very clear thinking to me. Yes sure, creation of DNA is surely (must be) a part of evolution itself.
What??? Let me just repeat my premise again: I have seen no evidence to suggest that the genetic code did not arise by random mutation and selection So you are, in effect, asking me to list all of the evidence that I have seen. clear proof (evidence) - message 226.If it is not a proof, please show me an example of a proof. Thank you. OK, if you insist: Go to your local library, get out The Molecular Biology of the Cell by Alberts et al, read the first few chapters and get back to me. Alternatively, you could tell me the particular aspects of the genetic code that you have a problem with, because that would save us a lot of time. There is of course a third option: you could avoid answering my questions again. Oh man... stop talking like this, or you will end up like mark24.... So if my proof isn't a proof for you LETS PLAY ! ....you can start to explain how the information arised - eg DNA code... go on!

Sorry, I have no time at the moment... I'll answer as soon as possible.
Until then please learn more about mRNA, tRNA and rRNA. You'll need to have another solution in reserve.
