Spin-off the 'list of 59'
It sure seems to me, that if you could spin-off that list of 59, into a new topic complete with online references, you would potentially have a "post of the year".
As it sits, it's just a big list of words, that doesn't mean hardly anything to me.

The majority of the participants in this debate seem to think that the theory of evolution stands or falls on the scientific evidence.
I certainly think the science side does.
quote:
The ONLY challenge of this evidence I made was any interpretation or conclusion that claimed God wasn't the ultimate Creator.
I certainly haven't followed this topic closely enough to make any truly grand statement, but I think most of the evolution side neither claim nor deny the claim that God was ultimately behind it all. Such considerations are outside the realm of science. What the evo side does deny, is that it all came to be through some simple, young earth scenario.
quote:
The indictment of scientism {the branch of science that excludes God in their starting assumptions} is the ISM which denotes religion.
Your saying that science excluding God from scientific investigations makes science a religion?
quote:
Lets not lose sight of what the simple disagreement is here: Mankind was created by God - period. He did not evolve from an ape or any premordial soup. If you believe otherwise it is because your mind is wired/disconnected to believe otherwise, which is God's penalty for rejecting Him as Creator.
Let me say, that looking at the creation (the Earth) indicates that man did indeed evolve from something earlier. Most prefer to look at the creation itself, to get the story, not some brief and ancient text of uncertain origin.
I discard the rest of your rant.
Cheers,
Moose

I think, as in the following defined, science is atheistic.
Atheistic - Without thesis; Without considerations of God; Independent of considerations of God; Is neither pro-theistic nor anti-theistic.
Unfortunately, Willowtree's definition, and the common definition of "Atheistic" is taken to be "anti-theistic".
It's all in how you define "Atheistic".
