Read it yourself. I know YOU know what you meant, but to someone else it could be inferred to mean the president's admin. 😛

well, he did what he thought was in the best interest of the nation. It is really not his fault the american people were dumb enough to vote for him twice.

Um.... huh?

Referring to his last public address... he said he did what he thought was in the best interest of the nation. Heard it on the news summary driving in to work.

You must go to a tanning salon because you're a real tangent.

Yuk yuk yuk...

No. That would be more like; "nice shoes, wanna fuck?"

I believe in evolution as directed by an intelligent agent, in this case God. Without intervention, evolution would be impossible. Genesis is just a symbolic description of the actual process of evolution, not a lie.

You are proof that ID is false. There is no intelligence in your design.
 
According to the Bible:

1. Man was created in God's likeness.
2. When man fell from grace by involving himself in sin, the likeness diminished.

In other words, after the fall man changed.
By definition, evolution is change. Stated the other way, change is evolution.

Conclusions:
1. The Bible actually supports evolution.
2. Evolution is not contrary to scripture.
3. Why do religious folks with a Biblical background so strongly oppose evolution?

And if our species is the best that an "infinitely intelligent" designer can do....haha, oh wow. Well that would be just plain pathetic. The rate for birth defects is about 1 in 33. 97% success rate. Our manufacturing methods strive for 6-sigma or higher, for a 99.9997% success rate. That failure rate alone would seem to say that this creator is certainly not all powerful or all knowing, and in fact has created a product with some serious technical flaws. Even if there aren't problems at birth, genetic flaws can occur later on, manifested as cancer.

Yeah yeah, it's all because of original sin and us getting tossed out of Eden. That load of BS is a whole other paradoxical can'o'worms.


And then there's my sig (for those who block them):
"I still say a church steeple with a lightning rod on top shows a lack of confidence." - Doug McLeod

At one time, God was responsible for lightning. Why isn't that still true? Did religion have to *gasp* evolve in the face of science? Why would God smite His own houses of worship, as he seems to do on a fairly consistent basis?

Yeah, I came across it too.
"Just a theory" - you might as well say, "I demand self-ownage!"

Only way I could locate it was through the at-wiki. Since it's back, I can link 🙂

as to your sig, I think Doug should have used faith instead of confidence since religion is all about faith. But what do I know.

Faith doesn't protect churches from lightning. That's why they use lightning rods, which were brought to us courtesy of scientific research.

I know that, I meant it would sound better.

"I still say a church steeple with a lightning rod on top shows a lack of confidence."

"I still say a church steeple with a lightning rod on top shows a lack of faith."

Me like version 2 better. Religion is all about faith.

Unless he is knocking the religious for their lack of confidence in the religion itself 🙂
