Only if you’re gullible enough to think the Periodic Table can write a concerto.Do you believe that given enough time and the right conditions that intelligence will eventually arise?

Only if you’re gullible enough to think the Periodic Table can write a concerto.Do you believe that given enough time and the right conditions that intelligence will eventually arise?
It’s written in the laws of nature. It was predestined by the laws of nature.Only if you’re gullible enough to think the Periodic Table can write a concerto.Do you believe that given enough time and the right conditions that intelligence will eventually arise?
Have you read the catechism?You are still wrong. And you are not a Catholic. So what for heavens sake do you try to convince me about? Think and you are able to solve your not existing problem. What do you think how many time you will have, when you will have to make a fast decision?
Evos are usually wrong, so ding is wrong. He says he is Catholic. He doesn't know Catholic dogma tho. I think he's theistic evolutionist. He thinks math, science, and physics were created by nature and discovered by humans. He thinks the Bible is mostly allegory. He doesn't quote Scripture, so I have no idea if he's read the Bible or whether he goes to church and receives the sacraments. Does he believe in Satan and exorcism? He is a person who is his own source, so is not credible imho. One can't discuss Catholic dogma with him. I don't even want to bring in Christianity nor the Bible. He believes in evolution and big bang like Pope Francis, but he doesn't want to be tied to Francis and either does not know about him and what he does. I guess he thinks Francis is a negative influence.

Yep. Science, music and mathematics were discovered.Only if you’re gullible enough to think the Periodic Table can write a concerto.Do you believe that given enough time and the right conditions that intelligence will eventually arise?
That's right. ding thinks nature created music and humans discovered it, too.

Which one?
The joke is that three boats come by to rescue her. When she dies she asked God why he didn’t save her. God tells her he sent three boats.With crutches it goes this way.
That’s your problem.Still I have not the feeling you are a Catholic.
I’d be surprised if that were the first time a Catholic said that.I miss your overarching perspective. For example said never any Catholic before in my life to me "And it must bother you, that I’m Catholic." Why should it be so?
Because I’d be surprised if that were the first time two Catholics disagreed on Catholic thought.
That’s why I said that.
Where did you ask me that? My standard answer to the question of am I a Catholic is I’m not a good catholic. But I’m still a Catholic.But I do not feel this in your case. So perhaps something is wrong with my empathy or you send to me wrong signals. I asked you whether you are a Catholic. You did not say "I am a Catholic". This gave me the impression you are not a Catholic. Why else should someone not give an answer to such a simple question?
Yes, something is wrong with your empathy.
No. I’ve always said I’m a Catholic. I never claimed to be a good catholic. But I’m still a Catholic.Now you say you are a Catholic. So what? It was always only your own behavior, which caused the problem to tell me something, what I do not like to discuss with you. I said I inform you about something - and I said "think about" - that was all. Whether you do so or not is your decision - not my decision.
So what you ask? It means that what I write about God is consistent with Catholic thought.
The catechism of the Catholic Church.Have you read the catechism?You are still wrong. And you are not a Catholic. So what for heavens sake do you try to convince me about?

So have you read the catechism?
Yes, Jesus is 100% human. Yes, Jesus is 100% God.I do not have any idea why you are not able to understand what I said to you about this theme. I said much to much about it. Read it again. Believe it or not. Your problem. The only reason why I told you that it is wrong, what you had said in context of Jesus, is that you produce a problem of the violation of hope in this case. You are not able to deny - if you are a Catholic - that Jesus is 100% human being and 100% god. But if you deny this then you try to kill hope - without intention, I guess, but perhaps with some intellectual vanity. For many it is important that god is not a creator far away in abstract worlds. In Jesus god on his own became creation, became a human being. 100% human being! 100% "painter" (creator) became 100% "painting" (creation). And god showed us in this way he also is able to suffer with us - without any filter, directly. This message is not phraseolgy - and is not advertising a new form of icecream - this 'message' is "cross". When god suffers in Jesus with us - but also when god enjoys this world in Jesus with us - how to be desperated any longer? There's always hope. Jesus came back after he was erased from this painting which is our real world, which is "we". Whatever someone might think about what's the reason for and how this paradox impossibility is able to be real - it is for all people important to know that god is with them - that god loves them - in all situations of life - specially in times of worst sufferings. God is always with his children. And pardon me: Do not try to discuss this problem now any longer with me. I am not a theologist. Do whatever you like to do with your strange form of theology, which has absolutelly nothing to do with me - and which has also nothing to do with the catechism of the Holy Catholic Church. The catechism is made for orientation - and not for your confusion.
But Jesus was never created. As such he can’t be the painting.
Is the universe an intelligence creating machine?
I am universe. And I do not think I am an intelligence creating machine.
Do you believe that given enough time and the right conditions that intelligence will eventually arise?
Perhaps intelligence will one day arise. But will we be intelligent enough to be able to notice this?

When ancient man was pondering where he came from and what his purpose was, he recognized that man was different than all other creatures.
We are creation like all other creatures.
He concluded that he was created in God’s image. In other words he was a being that knows and creates.
You don't know whether god exists or not exists. And you don't have any idea how strange this typical anglo-american never ending discussion of mad "Christians" and extremistic "scientists" sounds in the ears of the very most Christians and in the ears of many or most scientists. Not to use the argument "god" in context of natural science means not god exists or not exists. (Did god exist when he had created existence?) One of the most stupid ideas I've ever heard in context of natural science were for example the anti-ideas of Richard Dawkins to say the philosophy agnosticism shows that god is not existing. But that's nonsense. Agnosticism is still a philosophy and not a belief and still every agnostics is able to believe in god or not to believe in god.
So just because man does not do perfect things, that doesn’t mean he isn’t intelligent. Just not as intelligent as he can be.
The perfect is not perfect here. In the best of all possible worlds everything is always able to be more perfect too. Second: It's our job to keep gods creation alive and we (=every single human being without any exception) are responsible for gods living creation. Pope Francis said with every species, which we lose, we will lose a voice of god. I would say we lose not only a voice of god - we lose ourselve too in the loud, louder and loudest howling of strong men all over the world for more and more personal and national might and money. Life is the real important thing: all and every life: Life first!

That’s horse shit. No offense.
Yes, we are creatures. Unlike any other though in that we are beings that know and create.
Yes, we are supposed to be stewards but man is still broken.
As to the rest maybe you should revisit the section on atheism in the catechism.
Francis is a pedophile. The man literally wears the boy lover symbol on his garbs. This is him at world youth day 2019 wearing the exact symbol that the FBI themselves said in 2007 was one of the symbols of the pedophile groups. This symbol is for boy lover.

I don't expect you to know why Pope Francis is wrong. Evos are usually wrong. He's a liberal Pope, but not necessarily a bad one despite being wrong about science like you are. Besides, this topic doesn't belong in Religion and Ethics. It should be Science and Technology.

Not so in this variation.
That’s your problem.Still I have not the feeling you are a Catholic.
Not really.
I’d be surprised if that were the first time a Catholic said that.I miss your overarching perspective. For example said never any Catholic before in my life to me "And it must bother you, that I’m Catholic." Why should it be so?
I not. You are an US-American.
Because I’d be surprised if that were the first time two Catholics disagreed on Catholic thought.

That’s why I said that.
You said it because you like to win. Your problem is you don't know the reason what and why.

Good grief. What for heavens sake is your problem? Be happy, supercatholic. Nevertheless became the creator ("painter") in Jesus, the Christ, a human being (=creation= "painting").Whatever you liked to say - you used the wrong picture to say it.

You are wrong. Better to say you are not really right. You are simplifying what's not possible to simplify. Every human being is creation. When Jesus suffered on the cross he played not to be anyone or anything. He was an innocent human being who died the extremely painfully death of a criminal on the cross. This was a totally hopeless situation. But ...

Where did I claim I know what Catholics believe? Aren't you the one who's supposed to know with all the pontification you do on R&E (usually over atheists who do not know)? What I said was if you knew your Catholic dogma, then you would be running rings around me. You would be teaching me a lesson. I would be aware of how strong your faith is.
You still do not know what the significance of 70 AD is or else you would've answered my question. It's when the Romans destroyed the Temple of Jerusalem. If you know your Catholic catechism, then you would know its significance.
Let's start with this one.
