Re: Both Sides
Soracilla
I am glad you brought up this point
A Creationist would believe (usually) that their God is omnipotent and living outside of time.
I have seen this statement made often enough for me to think it it a widespread notion.However if you look at it it makes no sense. First of all you postulate that God is outside time [without evidence] which means,to me, that he has no posssible connection to the physiacal world since we are aware that space and time are joined at the hip so to speak. Since this is the stated case where do you suppose comes the ability to manipulate the very spacetime that He is not a part of?
Seems like wishful thinking? here.

Before you go patting yourself on the back could you please deal with the logical error pointed out in post # 28?

Re: Interesting...
Soracilla
Concerning this remark you made.
I find it hard to be convinced of evolution on this site, if all many of you say it how many times Creationism has been disproved. Articles, references, links, anything that would give some non-controvertible evidences for evolution would be greatly appreciated.
You cannot find non-controverible evidence in any realm of human inquiry,however, this webpage does have a huge set of links to show the evidence and the observations that go into the theory of evolution. http://www.origins.tv/darwin/evolution.htm#Evolution
Read and enjoy then come back after you have gone through some of it and debate the issues.
