ZUC, you wrote:
"Evidence?You keep going off on tangents about other stuff, stuff you also don't provide evidence for." It's easy to find. Just Giggle: "Scientists who believe life leached from rocks." I didn't say that little men jumped out of rocks. Certainly youdid not entertain this thought. The chemicals that leached from the rock is what some havesuggested. They have to think of something, because it is impossible forlife to come from non-life. Your problem is the same problem that Dwise and othershave. This is simply that there is no known way that life can create itself from nothing. Another problem is that there is no evidence, fossils orotherwise, for molecules to man evolution. I believe in change. Change is observable, but the propagandathat universities are spewing out is not observable. You can have faith that they are right, but nothing more.

Dwise, you wrote:
YOU MADE THE CLAIM SO IT IS Y*O*U*R RESPONSIBILITYTO SUPPORT YOUR OWN CLAIM!" ***You are the ones with the problems, not me. Both you andZuc have seen articles that suggest the chemicals that can l lead to the formation of life leached from rocks into murky pools of water. What I mean by this being your problem is that withoutadmitting God as the Creator you still must show how life arose from non-life. This is a gigantic problem for atheists. And, I will not let itgo. The law of biogenesis states that life cannot come fromnon-life. Do scientists ignore this law? Yes, they do when it serves their purpose. To suggest that life came from non-life is laughable.Evolutionists claim that it did happen though. A simple cell was first to evolve, they say. But the problem is that even a simple cell is complex. Also, there is no known observable process by which newgenetic information can be added to an organism's genetic code. Without new information an organism cannot change into ahigher form or organism. Over time everything loses information. My problem is not that evolutionists believe in a molecule toman evolution. It is that they claim it is a fact, when it is merely a worldview that one must accept by faith only.

Zuc, your problem is to show how life arose from non-life.
The low of biogenesis is firm and immovable. This is a monumental problem for atheists. However, they can get around this problem if they justacknowledge the Creator. Do you acknowledge the Creator?

ZUC, have you ever thought about the specified complexity
of the kinesin motor protein. The job of the kinesin is to transport was cellular components(cargo) alongs microtubules to designated parts of the cell. The KMP actually walks. It packs it cargo on its back. When aload is too heavy for one, more can help. And when navigating to another pathway, the kinesin gives its cargo to another KMP. The kinesin can deliver its cargo to any part of the cell. It issimilar to a mailman, who sorts the mail, and then carries it to its destination. Look up the KMP on YouTube and tell us how it createditself. Where did it get the information required to do this? Or, how about the flagella motor that contains 40 parts,consisting of gears, bushings, etc... it even has reverse. The flagella is a rotary engine, with whip-like tails, thatpropels the bacterium. The rotary engine rotates at a speed of nearly 300 revolutions per second. It is powered by the flow of protons. It is more complicated than anything man can create. Howcan simple bacterium possess such sophisticated machinery? Science has never observed anything close to this creatingitself. How did the flagella motor create itself? Look it up onYouTube.

Percy, a flat earth has nothing to do with this.
It is science that prevents me from believing in evolution. The simple cell is more complex than a space shuttle. If you believe that a space shuttle can design and builditself, then you, Zuc, Dwise, and all atheists are total idiots. You know that the cell could not and did not design andbuild itself. No one is that foolish. Atheists simply refuse to acknowledge God. They have thismentality that if they deny Him that He will simply disappear. It doesn't work like that Darwin thought the the cell consisted of nothing more than ajelly like substance inside a membrane. Darwin also believed that little water bugs, sometimes seenon small puddles, spontaneously sprang to life. Dinosaurs with soft tissue, blood cells, and C-14 are thebest proof against evolution. Observational science clearly proves that life can onlycome from pre-existing life. Not one has life been observed coming from non-life Observational science clearly proves that kind produceskind. For example, a human will always produce a human. A pig will always produce a pig. A chimp will always produce a chimp. Never have we observed differently. You might not like observational science, but that's tough.It is what it is. You might have faith in evolution, but you have no proof. My issue is not that people want to believe in evolution. Itis that they claim evolution is a fact. This is a lie. Natural selection is exactly what it says. It only selects fromthe genes in pool. An ape can never be anything but an ape, regardless of how many centuries pass. Infinite time can never do the impossible. Evolutionists are the ones who are deluded. They cannotunderstand basic scientific principles. They believe that eons of time can distort the laws of science.

Percy, you asked:
"Remaining on topic, why do you think you’re not succeedingin convincing anyone?" ***It is really difficult to convince someone who already hashis mind made up. Percy, do you understand the complexity of the single cell? I stated that the simple cell is as selectively complicated asa space shuttle. I might have understated this. I believe that it is as complicated as the universe is. Even Dawkins has stated that the cell has the appearance ofdesign. If you are honest with yourself, you will also admit this Is true, whether you believe it or not. I believe in creation because this is what I see. From symbioticrelationships to extreme complexity, from organisms on the highest mountains to those in the deepest depths of the oceans, I see design. With all our current knowledge, from sending crafts outsideour solar system, to landing sophisticated machines on Mars, we cannot duplicate the amazing machinery inside our bodies The info required to reproduce us is in our DNA. Mutations andnatural selection does not produce the info needed to upgrade any organism. The knowledge required to create everything we see is amazing.We can have access to the God of this knowledge. It makes absolutely no sense to run from Him. But, I understand. The ability of Satan to deceive is also amazing

Dwise, you stated:
"If you knew anything at all, you would realize that relyingon complexity arguments is a very stupid mistake to make." ***Okay, I will be waiting for you, in your infinite wisdom, totell us step by step by step exactly how the first cell created itself. If you can do this, I will be amazed. If you can recreate thisfeat, I will deny the existence of God. Then you can tell us step by step by step how the flagellamotor created itself. I will be amazed. The truth is that you can't. You know you can't, and I know youcan't. The entire world knows you can't. You can believe that the impossible happened if you want, butunless you can replicate what you assert, it amounts to nothing but faith; in fact a blind faith. You run your mouth as though doing so makes you look reallyintelligent. Let me tell you that it doesn't work. I used to do the same thing, but then I grew up.

"So can we convince hard core believers in something,probably not, but anyone on the fringe, is generally open to learning more." ***Right back at you, buddy.

"All you're telling us is how dishonest you are and how falseyour religion is." "And how completely and stupidly ignorant you are that you are completely incapable of answering a simple direct question." "What the fuck is so completely wrong with you?" ***I have already asked if you believe in theistic evolution.It is a simple question. Yes or no. If you do believe in TE, then there is no need to continuewith the completion of the cell. If you do not believe in the Creator, then you must explainhow the first cell evolved, and how it grew more and more complex. This is what is wrong with me.

Percy:
"Why do you think you’re not succeeding in convincing anyone?" Me: "It is really difficult to convince someone who already has his mind made up." Percy: "Isn't that true of everyone who has a firm opinion? Including you?" Me: Then why did you suggest that I am the only one whohas an issue with convincing others?

ZUC, just one example:
The famous atheist and “materialist philosopher” Daniel Dennett.These paragraphs come from a New Yorker profile on the man and his thought, and specifically how life evolved:" "Four billion years ago, Earth was a lifeless place.Nothing struggled, thought, or wanted. Slowly, that changed. Seawater leached chemicals from rocks; near thermal vents, those chemicals jostled and combined. Some hit upon the trick of making copies of themselves that, in turn, made more copies. The replicating chains were caught in oily bubbles, which protected them and made replication easier; eventually, they began to venture out into the open sea. A new level of order had been achieved on Earth. Life had begun." ***There are more. But, you were not concerned about this.You are simply in over your head, because you cannot show how the first cell created itself. You know that you don't know. I know that you don't know, andyou know that I know you don't know. But you have a lot of company. There is not a person who can successfully answer this question. Your persistence in this "chemicals from rocks to lifestatement" is simply a way to keep you from admitting that without a Creator, life is impossible. Life cannot come from non-life. You and all atheists are inover your heads.

Percy, there is really nothing this forum can do to change
minds. If the specified complexity of the cell cannot alter one'sperception, nothing will. That individual is impervious to change.

ZUC, you stated:
"You realize that science is pretty exact right? If I say "Youwere born from your mother" that's a statement easy to check. But if I say "You leeched into existence from your mother" that is an entirely different statement. Right? You realize that that statement doesn't make sense, right?" ***We can witness were babies are formed, and where theycome from. I was in the delivery room when both of them were born. I observed their birth. There is historical science and there is observational/operational science. Historical science is subjective. Our opinions are shaped byour paradigm or world. Both atheists and creationists know that fossils exists. This isa good example of historical science. How we interpret these fossils are subjective. How the universe came into existence, and how all thevarieties of organisms and animals on earth is also subjective. There is no way that we can go back in time and observe either. True science is observable and/or operational. Operationalscience is the process by which we sent men to the moon. It is responsible for the creation of the telephone, microwave, computer, etc... Operational science is the method but which surgeonsdeveloped the knowledge and skill to perform open heart surgery, and other highly sophisticated medical procedures. Historical science can lead men to ponder and speculate,even to think deeply, but we cannot recreate what happened in the past. It makes no difference how we believe that life came about,we cannot recreate how it happened. Whether atheists/evolutionists or creationists historicalscience requires faith.

Dwise, you stated:
"Specified complexity of the cell" is nothing but creationist bullshit, "ID" bullshit in this case. WHY WOULD YOU EXPECT BULLSHIT TO CHANGE ANYONE'S MIND?" ***You are a funny guy, Dwise. But you are two dimes shortof 25 cents if you expect anyone to believe that the itty, bitty, simple cell created itself. Darwin had no idea of the complexity of the cell. But we nowunderstand the impossibility of this happening. Darwin knew nothing about epigenetics. He based his ridiculous assertion on bird beaks. If you are a creationist, say so!!! Are a TE? Atheists believe in long, long, long eons of time. It is theirGod. For them time can accomplish anything, even the impossible. But, time cannot break the law of biogenesis, which states: Life only arises from pre-existing life. Also, that livingorganisms produce only more living things like themselves. I believe this law, exactly life a sincere, honest scientist woulddo. Science vs. atheists.
