Mud slinging: the best the left can muster in an argument...
You can't fight ID with logic and science. Its a matter of irrational faith. Hence, the Flying Spaghetti Monster, a quite effective troll of the IDiots position.
For those of you who think christianity can't be defended logically...
Hehe, that is quite a logical argument there over plastic vs wood. Scientists believe in plastic whereas the Bible believes in wood and WOW, it turns out that wood is a better container for food because of antibacterial properties. Hell yeah it is. Wood has evolved for millions of years to be able to withstand rotting so a tree don't fall while standing.
Fundi Christians make what they think are logical arguments because they are blind to what logic is. But then again perhaps you are just pulling people's chain and giggling to yourself like I might do. If so here's my take on Christians and evolution:
There is a truth the knowledge of which reveals that life is infinitely good. The reality of that truth can be experienced instinctively in ones being. The existence of that truth is alluded to in the Bible. The Bible is the word of God. If one word in the Bible is wrong the bible may be wrong there may be no God and the Good may not be true. So the truth of the Bible must be true because I feel the presence of that true Good. Therefore, I will believe any horse pucky that comes along that supports the Bible because my truth can't be wrong.
The mistake in all this is that it is the Good that exists not God. God is a symbol man creates and defines to represent the existence of that Good. But the Good gets shoe-horned into a million kinds of boxes. The animist the Buddhist the Hindu the Christian the Muslim, they all feel that Good and define it as the culture around them does. There is only one Truth and God is only one of its names. The truth is the truth and it is unaffected by what you believe. The thing you call God is real and neither your misconceptions nor the atheist can change a single thing.
