The Official Religious/Political Debate Thread (Cobain, Europe, American, French)

[Urban Hat€monger ?]

So both arguements are full of holes

Wasn`t that what I was implying in my first post when I said it`s up to the individual to choose what they beleive?

Bull, they are. Break us down and we become cells, break them down and they become proteins. Scientists can create proteins out of thin air with the right conditions - conditions which we believe have been present in the history of the Earth. Those proteins bind to form DNA and simple cells such as the amoeba. Cells are constantly changing (if you look at things over billions of years) and so millions of mutations crop up. Millions of those die, but some flourish because they're good mutations and useful mutations. Tune in billions of years later and meet humanity, for want of brevity.

That is ignorance.

k, well I have a few questions for your evolution theory. Where did the life we evolve from come from?

EDIT: Oh and life is the only thing that creates life is a theory, just thought i'd add that.

Where did God come from?

I hate how Christians ask the same question that you just asked, and they ask it in a way that they think they just proved something.

So basically I have to answer your question but you don't have to answer mine? Thats really fair.

I believe god has always been here, as you stated. Go ahead shoot me for it.

Then the life that we came from essentially, which was created during the big bang, has always been here.

I`m not a Christian and it`s a perfectly valid question. Isn`t hiding your head in your sand everytime a difficult question is asked what you`re accusing people who believe in creationism of doing?

All the matter in the universe was at it most dense state, at its highest temperature. It began expanding. It didn't explode. The universe is constantly expanding.
