You're funny, and you're trying so hard to "strike a nerve", and you think you have because I've chosen to ignore you.

Carry on, your not built for it.

*continues to ignore*

You know what's funny? I'm not trying to strike a nerve with you. I'm simply an offensive fellow. It's how I handle everyone. However, you're so arrogant that you think I'm making a special effort for you.

Additionally, I like how you LIED that you were going to ignore me earlier and have now proven yourself to be un-christlike.

Now STFU and watch this. Better yourself.

LOL so you left religion because it "looked silly" to believe in god?

How old are you, 12?

Fwiw, I'll stop believing when I find a "reason" to -- not because I'm scared of how others view it.

Yes that is one of the reasons. The stories in the bible are absolutely ridiculous. It has nothing to do with me being scared of how others view it.

Funny that you ask if I'm a child since generally it's children that so easily believe in fairy tales.
 
By your own logic, there is no evidence that we DIDN'T come from a lifeless planet. 🙄
Is there evidence or not?
Life is inevitable.
Based on what? Your faith? This sounds more like a creedal statement than anything a naturalist should say.
Stars explode, their star dust coalesces, with the right mix of compounds, poof life can be born. Obviously. 🙂
Yup, you're the "reasonable" one where logic and evidence is all that you go on.🙄
Are you claiming it couldn't have happened because you didn't observe it?
No, I'm claiming that there isn't any evidence that it happened. Why should I believe it?
 
Additionally, I like how you LIED that you were going to ignore me earlier and have now proven yourself to be un-christlike.
I sympathize, every once in a while you're almost reasonable then you turn into a toad again the very next post. I can see how somebody could get fooled into getting back in the ring with you. Personally, I'm starting to like you.:thumbsup:
 
Right. Jumping to the supernatural conclusion is the God of the Gaps argument, which has already been destroyed.
The point is that you're never going to accept the supernatural conclusion because you're presuppositionally against it. A man could grow a new arm right in front of you and you'd be like "god of the gaps" "god of the gaps" we don't know how that happened but we're working on it.

No, we are presuppositionally against BS. Thing is, so are you, except on this one issue(I assume just this one).
 
I'm getting tired of your BS run a rounds. If you can't/won't answer that simple question, you'll go on my Ignore list.
I said to watch that video at that point in time so you can watch Dawkins tell a fairy tale about the eye.

"If you want fairy tales take a look at the Blind Watchmaker video posted above and start at the 17 minute mark." Maybe you didn't see this?

...but he's not telling a fairy tale. There is tons of evidence showing what he is saying.
 
Right, right. Tons of evidence about the sensors secreting mucus creating a rudimentary lens. Tons of evidence for that.

Do you think there is only 1 eye in existence? You do realize there are thousands of variations in different stages? There are eyes/sensors, existing right now which work similarly.

He tells a story about secretion of mucus creating a rudimentary lens. Look if you like this story who am I to argue with you? To me, its a fairy tale.

Note, he isn't talking about extant eyes he's talking about a fictional eye that lived happily ever after.

There are eyes existing right now that work in a similar fashion. I'm sorry, this is no fairy tale.
