Re: ... whatever
I am a creationist.
I remember being told in grade 5 that God created the fossils to test our faith. I believed it. But not no more. I think that any Christian willing to say that God tests us with fossils is considering God to be an evil one, to deceive us. There is only one test God had for us, anything but deceiving. The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
Since all these previous posts are nothing but speculation and trash talk. I'll join in.
I speculate that Adam was smarter than us. Ever hear about those people with an amazing memory? People with mathematical skills beyond imagining? Or those artist painting beautiful paintings? etc...
Add all of em up and you got Adam. Yes, because after the fall into sin, God cursed everything because of our disobedience, therefore everything is going downhill. Not uphill, like those poor evolutionists think everything is heading. But maybe after 5 billion years downhill mutations, even they maybe convinced.
As for God's image, (cant believe people still believe this), it does not talk about our physical bodies, you silly! You really think that monkeys are less that God's image?
No merely, God's image talks about how we socially interact with one another. Love, a love for living beings, a love for things that are beautiful, a love for things that are right. Of course, the fall into sin sort of smashed that image, and we are left with people who like to rape, who like to hate/kill their neighbour. Ah, but if evolution is true, this is just natural. Forget about right and wrong, those ideas are just silly.
Yeah, I released some steam there didn't I?

Re: ... whatever
Alright, I was a bit careless with my response.
I do not believe atheism must result in sociopaths. I just believe that without God, we have no right to decide whats right or wrong. WHy? well it all becomes relative, if it is up to us to decide what is right and wrong, then who is right? One person say rape is bad, the rapists says other wise. So how you solve this problem? well install a government that enforces a certain standard that most people agree with.
But the concept is this, without God, there really is no right or wrong.
I am sorry that I said that atheism results in no moral code. There just is no way to check to see who's standard is right and who's wrong.
Here is the reason why even atheists can be 'good';
Everyone has a conscience which still holds on to some image of God.
Therefore we do not need the Bible or a law to keep us from complete sociopathic behaviour. And some atheist think its better to hold on to these 'feelings' of what is right and wrong, then there are others (even Christians) who chose to ignore what is right, and do what pleases them. This does not mean that they do away with all that is right, but they pick and chose what best suites them.
I hope that this is a bit more clear and less ignorant than my previous comment.
Edited by Confidence, : No reason given.

Even observations are now interpreted through this biased filter, judged right or wrong depending on whether or not they support the big bang. So discordant data on red shifts, lithium and helium abundances, and galaxy distribution, among other topics, are ignored or ridiculed. This reflects a growing dogmatic mindset that is alien to the spirit of free scientific inquiry.

Origin of information

math... did we create math, or was math already created for us to observe? The latter is obvious. We just made the symbols to represent it. For the equations of how objects move were and are already in place for the objects to obey, we just observe the equations and put symbols to them.
Information... random? No, it is a purposeful arrangement of some material that conveys a message from a sender to a recipient. If it was random we wouldn't call it information, we would call it ... randomness.
Scientific to say information, observed mathematical equations comes from unguided processes? Not really, we don't observe that. What we do observe is life comes from life, information comes from information, mathematical equations --> already there. Hmmm.. conclusion? Randomness did all this. We call this evolution --> (and people call this science).
Wake up people.
Edited by AdminModulous, : off topic.

We have already shown that life is overwhelmingly loaded with information; it should be clear that a rigorous application of the science of information is devastating to materialistic philosophy in the guise of evolution, and strongly supportive of Genesis creation.
