The Study of EVOLUTION and an Ages old Universe is a waste of time!

Derp thread

Perhaps the reason is that you have nothing of interest to say and even less to offer?

Evolution isn't practical? What does that even mean? How is the theory of, say the expansion of the universe, multiverses or Higgs bosons Practical? The THEORY of electromagnetism wasn't "practical", either until we realized the further meanings and deeper insights they gave us. Facts don't have fit YOUR needs or expectations. Practical?

Well, if a theory is not provable, viewable, or repeatable, it isn't of much value. Unless one is trying to toss out the Biblical record as myth. Then it might be applied as a "scientific" presumption.

>>Well, if a theory is not provable, viewable, or repeatable, it isn't of much value<<

Ah, the bible!

Prayer works for those who try it without selfish intent. If God doesn't exist prayers would not be answered.

toss a coin. better odd than prayer.

This statement is not scientific----- where is your data?

God does not necessarily answer the prayers of an unrepentant person. The only prayer God promises to answer is that of a sinner asking for Christ to come into his heart and forgive him. Only after that does God through the Holy Spirit begin to conform that individual to be like Christ. And with that does God answer prayers that agree with God's ultimate plan for that individual. Did God enable people the ability to live in this life without their natural limbs? Will the believer regain all his limbs in heaven? Did Jesus straighten the arm of an individual and give sight to the blind? I know that the answer is yes!

Are you an authorized spokesperson for God ?

This is exactly what God expected from the Chosen Children of Israel! They were supposed to be an example and spokesperson to the world. The disciples of Christ were all told to let their light so shine and go unto all the world and preach the Gospel message. How shall they hear without a preacher?

Yes, I and ALL CHRISTIANS should desire to share their faith with those they meet. And live as a positive example.

They were to preserve the torah till people were ready

I grant you that God has placed in the mind of the Jew the intense desire to not tampor with the word of God. However, God ultimately protects the permanence of His Word and His Chosen people. He will bring them back to Himself.

and yet so many errors in translations and editing of the bible over the centuries.
so were is god protecting his word?
it is the words of men, not god

If a secret cannot make it around a room intact, what make you believe the bible is unchanged through more than two millennia, and how many languages?

Whats left thats interesting to talk about to someone who denies evolution and thenage of the Universe in the face of the evidence?

Its like talking to a brick wall, worthless, pointless, waste of bandwidth, waste of air.

I find value in embracing the gods as well as science. There are many beautiful and powerful things to learn and experience within the religions as well as science, and when the two are merged...​

Embracing and having full faith in their existence are two very different levels of psychotic.

I love practical science. Evolution is not practical! And Believing that the Universe is Billions and Billions and Billions and Billions of years old NEVER helped anyone build a better mousetrap or bring about better methods of cataract surgery.

The study of Evolution and an old universe at best is like studying nostalgia. At worse it is like the study of a fabricated story that no one needs to comprehend in order to live or make dinner.

The Bible on the other hand---- at the very least explains why we need salvation and who provides it. If one doesn't wish to believe that message, one doesn't need to. However, one may just end up in hell.

Whether the universe in a trillion billion years old or 10 thousand that conclusion offers no hope, no joy, no comfort, and no eternal rewards.

To study evolution isn't going to make one a better doctor. Practice in the operating room will help. However, being a religious person will at the very least encourage a better bedside manor and a sympatric ear towards one's patients.

So, while the study of body functions, engineering, architecture, history, and literature is informative and practical. Arguing over the age of the universe and if we are linked to animals through mutual ancestry is purely a nostalgic argument in futility.

Why would you feel that you must choose between evolution and religion?

By reality are you referring to an evolutionary reason homosexuality is practiced?

Homosexuality is evolutions little way of telling unfit members of the species to get the f--k out of the gene pool...

Well, if the Anti-Christ is anything like Hitler, he will likely use such marriage documentation to round them all up. It will make he job easy. Bet they never see it coming!

Homosexuality has always existed. It is the way god made some people. The same way some are Siamese twins, hermaphrodite, or born with the brain of the opposite sex. A few have always been different, unique in god's eyes.

Nobody is born "straight" or "gay". From the moment you are born, you are exposed to a world of countless influences. These influences, combined with the quality of one's sexual experiences, are the primary factors that affect one's sexual orientation. One's choices in life do have a profound impact on who they become attracted to.

Did an "evolutionist" tell you this or did you find them yourself? Show me an error. I believe that God plays an active role in the dispensing and protecting His Word. God does not depend on man. Man depends on the LORD.

You assume they sinned...

what did Eve say to Adam when she saw a fig leaf fluttering in the wind ?

Look an invisible man...........

The great OSOTU [Operating System of the Universe] Recommends this default setting : Listen to your inner voice. Don't listen to the superficial voice that makes you angry. Listen to that deeper voice that is going to guide you from now on, the voice that is laughing. Listen to it! And laugh with it. Laugh! Laugh!

No, the preponderance of his behaviours since birth is.
