    What will it take to accept the mountains of scientific evidence? Doesn't the mere existence of fossils alone prove the story of creation flawed and false? Is there anything? If not, why? What makes you hold so steadfastly to your beliefs even though they make you and your ideas seem out-dated and uneducated to the rest of the world?
    Hag this all comes down to the 7 day argument we've had before. Fo me the coorect interpretaion of day in Genesis is "age". I have no problem attesting to the age of the earth is millions of years old.

    What proof do the scientists offer? There is speculation...but nothing PROVES where we came from, how life was formed or how the universe began. You have faith that science has the answer...I have faith that God is the answer.
    Scientists offer evidence as proof, and evidence is the foundation for a scientist's belief. Faith is the belief that an assertion is true in fact, despite all evidence to the contrary. When it comes to belief based in faith, the notion of "proof" is not relevent--only the strength of the belief is relevent.

    There's no such evidence that is ever presented that does not presume the existence of a creator...NONE. That's why.

    TADA! You win first prize! That question illustrates exactly why your previous "nonsense" is NOT the definition of creationism. The creationist says "God," but denies the question "Who created God?"

    God is not matter; He is spirtual energy. His existence is independent of the universe.

    FYI Glockmail: The "Guy who created God" is also "independent of the universe." So is "the Guy who created the Guy who created God."

    If that's the case, then what was/is the first cause?

    Prove it.
    Man is a marvelous curiosity … he thinks he is the Creator's pet … he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea.
    -- Mark Twain

    It's self evident, and believed by the majority. Therefore the burden of proof is on you to prove me wrong.

    TADA! You win the retarded 1st prize! I did not submit a definition for evolution! AND you win 2nd prize for confusing evolution with ambiogenisis! AND you win 3rd prize for begging the question! A clean sweep!

    Not exactly right - God's existence is the conclusion upon looking at the evidence. that's how it works.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    No. Every instance of evidence presented for the existence of a creator has ALWAYS presumed the existence of a creator--that's the only way it works. If you think otherwise, submit some of this non-presumptive evidence, just don't try <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcAq9bmCeR0">Irreducible Complexity</a> on me if you plan on using as examples; those examples of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZdCxk0CnN4">Irreducible Complexity</a> have had their complexity reduced.
