There must have been a tear in the time-space continuum such that tens of millions of years is actually just a few thousand years spanning the time between Noah's ocean voyage and our current understanding of the natural world.A "designer" who by magic and supernatural methods *poofs* new life forms into existence.
Identify a single instance of that happening.
Oh, you can't? Didn't Think so.
Cambrian explosion where all those critters suddenly appear in the fossil record.*
Game, set, match atheists.
*By suddenly, we mean over the course of some 20-50 million years. But, hey, why let the details get in the way?
... and magic too. Don't forget the spontaneous eruption of shrubbery in flames.???....humanity.....though I reject your characterization of divine acts as mere magic.....David Copperfield does magic.....God does humans.....A "designer" who by magic and supernatural methods *poofs* new life forms into existence.if "pop" infers the lack of cause then I disagree......how about, species randomly occur over a long period of gradual change, species randomly occur over a short term due to a rapid change, or species are caused to occur when they are intended to occur by an intelligent designer?.........yes, in reference to single celled and multicelled organisms existing simultaneously........that does not mean I believe ALL species had to have been created at the same time......I do not, for example, believe that all the existing types of butterfly were all in existence since the beginning of time......Then let me refresh your memory. This was you in post 329, the post I was responding to...
"why do you believe they were not created at the same time?......is it because secular science tells you it would have take billions of years for it to occur as a result of random shit happening randomly......."
If they did not exist at the same time, then either species evolve over time or species just pop into existence.
