Note the subtopic title. Why is it, that whenever a creationist is pressed for evidence or an experiment, the first thing they say is along the lines of "you wouldn't accept it anyways". Let's see how you fare:
Look, nomatter what evidence I bring to the table for creation there is an enormous amount of data interpreted to support your views..
Figured as much. And this was in response to Ringo providing you with a simple experiment you could do yourself. Instead of refuting the experiment or performing it, you chose to cry about it.
And to be frank, I see the appeal of choosing to believe in evolution or some other natural process of existence. It is very convient, even if it all seems to be "logical".
Huh? Do you realize how much easier it would be to tell my 6 year old son, when he asks me about stars and clouds and animals, "god did it"? Fuckin AAA I would love for it to be that damn easy! THAT, my friend, is convenience. However, I would actually like for my prodigy to know how the world really works, not just give him some easy to swallow pill that requires no thought whatsoever.
On the contrary, the reason science doesn't reason with Christians is because it is something you feel & experience.
I think you juxtaposed the words "science" and "christianity". I've NEVER heard a scientist/atheist etc claim they "feel" science or evolution. However, time and time again, christians say exactly that about their invisible homie.
Becoming a true Christian is not easy..
I can imagine that it is, since every single christian has their own idea as to what a "trve christian" is....
Don't be suprised or offended if the majority of Christians dont even look at the data you present them.
Yes. Cognitive Dissonance is a bitch, isn't it?
But in general, on this website, I do not feel a common respect for other parties..
The only disrespect I see is for people who are seriously mentally challenged. The christians who don't just start spouting off at the mouth about dumb shit have no problems. You seem to actually be interested in civil discourse, so you shouldn't have a problem. For example: check out Slevesque (who is ALSO an administrator), GDR, purpledawn (also an admin) and iano, for example. Those three are all theists to some degree and do not receive any harsh treatment and have all been here for some time.
I have seen people who are religious called **** for brains, stupid, ignorant and ironically wicked.
The individuals who are on the receiving end of those monikers are deserving of them.
.but neither should expect an entire planet will end up beleiving ONE point of view.....that is impossible without brainwashing on some level..
To some extent, I concur. However, there are MANY concepts that do only have one valid POV. Would you accept the teaching of geo-centrism? Holocaust denial? What about 2+2=5?
