Re: ... whatever
Not uphill, like those poor evolutionists think everything is heading
Evolution does not demand that organisms get stronge/faster/smarter/bigger. Evolution demands that organisms get better adapted to their ecological niche or die. There is no inherent direction involved.
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.
Evolution says nothing about morals. I find it troubling that some christians like you proudly proclaim that the only thing keeping you from being a sociopath is the supposed commandents of your imaginary friend.

Re: ... whatever
Christians do not say that law keeps people from being sociopaths.
Sure they do. I often see posts here from christians claiming that athiests have no moral guide and that if evolution is true then there is no reason to be good. I'll quote confidence from right before my post:
... 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.
See here is an alleged christian who thinks that without god people would be evil.
Only god can keep us from being sociopaths.
Really? I do just fine without him/her.
But we do not let Him
How do you prevent an omnipotent being from doing whatever he/she/it wants?
But you know better... don't you DrJones?
Well I don't live my life in fear of the wrath of an invisible sky bully if thats what you mean.
And all this is off-topic anyways, so I wont be responding to anything else along these lines.
