I would like to suggest to all the non-believers who are curious about Christianity and want proof that God exists to read a book by C.S. Lewis called "Mere Christianity". Maybe you have heard of it. It basically explains what Christians believe in a very educational level. I think many of you here are curious about Christianity. That's why you joined a Christian forum. So, I know this book will help many of you understand it. It's very very good! I highly recommend it to anyone, even the Believers, as well.

I can't agree with this enough. Mere Christianity is a must read for any Christian or anyone who plans to argue against Christianity.

Plastic dolls, thats what we'd evolve into, plastic dolls. Michael Jackson is the first.

The only way man will evolve is if he has to do it himself.

We're crazy. :thumbsup:

Mere Christianity? One of the worst texts you could cite in support of your rather spurious argument. Care for an elaboration?

As for the evolution of humans, there's the continued adaptation of the human spine to cope with the stress of bipedalism?

Got any information on that adaptation of the human spine thing handy? This is something I've not heard about. :P

why are you here, that's the real question; why not atheist.com?

Because people like you go around slandering science and Evolution with less than satisfying arguments. It's not just that though, it's that you do it particularly because science is a threat to what you hold in highest esteem. If you came here with evidence and sufficient reasons for why a particular scientific theory or hypothesis should not be supported, and actually offer your explanation up as a source of discussion you might garner some respect. But I doubt that's your intention, you come only to preach against what threatens your own position, simply because of that reason. I don't see many Christians here taking it upon themselves to stand up for the scientific community in defending, or at least rationally discussing, one of the most important theories in biology, so you have those of us outside the Christian community here for precisely that reason. Otherwise it seems that you may be catering to the bulk of Christians who are ignorant of the actual theory of Evolution, removing their need to actually question the world, and try to reason things for themselves.

Well, let me just jump on on WordofTruth's shoulders here and explain something to you, Joel. Science doesn't threaten the Lord; He is science! Those of you outside the Christian community are entitled to your views and whatever evidence you choose to accept....BUT... you come to this board to try to prevent Christians from telling other Christians the Truth??? News flash, Joel, you're probably fighting an uphill battle with Christians; in trying to convince most of them that we evolved from apes and were not created as the Bible tells us. Who did you say your boss was again???? :P

adaptation fails to prove Darwin's hypothesis

it proves the genius of the Designer

This is true; adaptation within a species, prompted by environment, is NOT evolution. :P

I suggest a third arm, growing out of mid back so we can scratch those 'hard to reach areas' and give ourselves neck rubs!

Call your Lord what you will, but he is NOT science as it is actually defined. You can't just throw any word on your God and say it's descriptive of him. Science is "a system of acquiring knowledge based on the scientific method, as well as to the organized body of knowledge gained through such research." Is that what the Lord is? Calling the Lord "science" is just word-play to try to push any scientific findings outside of the realm of judgment on your precious beliefs. By calling the Lord "science", you can now comfortably disregard any scientific findings, because they won't interfere with the existence of your God when they are subject to him.

My Lord is the same one who created YOU, Joel. He is science actually....He is the Creator of everything and everyone. You're right, I can't just throw any word at God and say it's descriptive of Him....there are no words to describe the glory of the Lord. There's no 'word play' in telling the Truth, my friend, and my beliefs are indeed precious; not just to me but to billions of believers. Calling the Lord 'science' is not disregarding anything; it's giving the glory to Him. I have a lot of respect for science and the good things it has brought into our lives. Science doesn't disprove God but, rather, points directly at Him. :)

although the supernatural dimension is not observable, testable, or repeatable (now), it is nonetheless REAL

without God, there is no universe, no humanity, no science

get your eyes off the floor, stop thinking in a tiny little bubble

You believe in God, i don't. One of us is right but it does not mean either of us is thinking in a tiny bubble.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
