On the origin of life

From the source, second paragraph. Not really.We do have plenty of evidence that nature and natural processes existed around 4 billion years ago and also that natural processes kept on continuing and still exist today.On the other side, there's absolutely no evidence that Spooks existed around 4 billion years ago and absolutely no evidence that Spooks kept on continuing till today.So, it's quite a bummer for those creationists. Especially YEC's such as Dr Batten, who did his studies in agriculture, not on the origin of life.

Your profile says that you're a stonemason. In this post you call yourself '...being a scientists of course-...'.Are stonemasons scientists or 'scientists' such as Imams or Priests calling themselves scientists?Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Thanks LomuSomething still bothers me.You started off with 'Howdy all'. That is a Texas type of greeting. Aussies would start with something like: 'G'day'.This is just an observation.

Yeah, something similar with me. I've got a degree in inorganic chemistry. That doesn't make me a chemist at all. It just taught me that I know a little bit more about chemistry than what other people know; but that I really don't know much about chemistry. That's about it.I don't know enough to challenge those hundreds of thousands of specialists on chemistry, from all over the world, on their findings.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

I see that Lomu disappeared. My guess is that he will get full marks from his creationist 'University' for posting something on an 'evolutionist' website. In the end his 'Degree' will be worth as much as the education of a 12-year old. He won't get a job in the real world; apart from being able to be preaching to other undereducated people...somewhere in the American Bible Belt or the poor suburbs of western Sydney or around Teheran.In the end Lomu appears to be too stupid to even try to pretend to educated.I would love to see old Lomu greeting those guys in western Sydney with a 'Howdy all', though. It would be a blast. Those guys wouldn't know what to do. You Sepo!Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Nope. Sepo. From Urban Dictionary: Sepo

This was it for me. That means that Lomu is a YEC pretending to be something else.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Yip.

Yeah, Faith expects reality to contradict his/her favourite interpretations of his/her favourite holy scriptures. So, I guess that Faith doesn't believe much of Protestant or Catholic or Eastern Orthodox or Jewish Bibles.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Howdy, Sepo.

Yeah. A lot of Christian religious people try to change the meaning of written words to what they want it to mean to suit their beliefs. One example is the meaning op the word "soon" being changed to "whenever it happens somewhere in future around 5 billion years from now".Another example is when they want the meaning of the words "this generation" get changed to "any generation, whenever". That's what they want those words to mean. And then they call it it's a "prophesy" getting "fulfilled"!Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Cat Sci, you must be careful. You're going to be accused of blaming the supposed God for you being really, really bad in the supposed good creation. Because Adam and Eve supposedly ate some fruit. Even though you only turned up thousands of years later. You're bad!Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Yeah, sure, when my parrot died, he could still fly around somehow.Sorry, Faith. The word "die" means dead. Dead. Gone. Adios Amigos. Flesh rotting away. In equilibrium with the environment.I realise that what you want is for words to mean something else...you want words to mean whatever you want to maintain your ridiculous faith.

Yeah, sure Faith.

Nope. Carcasses rotting away or being eaten by lions or vultures or hyenas would be a lot more reliable way of defining the word 'die'. They're dead. Gone.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.
