    Is arguing with a Christian about Evolution like arguing about the Earth being round?

    It's like Christians and other theists claim they are free to have their 'belief' with no evidence. The evidence that religion is a sham is there, they just refuse to accept it. So isn't it like arguing with someone that thinks the world is flat just because they have never been across the...

    christians argue for and against evolution.?

    from my experience they say there's no way it could happen to create man, but whenever, i bring up the fact that all animals on earth couldnt fit on the ark, i hear, "well, all the wildcats were one species at the time, and all the bears were one species.." so either evolution exists, or the ark...

    There is an old joke motif the origin of which is obscure (to me, perhaps you can inform us): A highly technical, or perhaps mundanely boring, or perhaps very formal or conventional thing ... a police report, the new HR guidebook for a large company, the manual for your new programmable...

    Why do so many catholics deny things like evolution and the big bang?

    I once had a theology teacher (a catholic priest) who explained that he believed that theories such as evolution and the big bang are true. He said that there is just too much evidence to deny it. But he still believed that there is room for god, maybe he cause the big bang, then guided the...

    ...not been wrong yet.? paleontologist use evolution to predict what kinds of bones are out there and then they find those fosils.

    Texas Governor: Evolution vs Creationism in Texas Schools

    Governor Rick Perry's position is that he believes in "Intelligent Design" as a matter of faith and intellect. Well, his faith is out of place (did he not swear to protect and defend the US constitution? On a bible?) and his intellect is clearly damaged by exposure to those wide open Texas...

    Evolution vs. Creationism: The Book

    A life science teacher should not have to know about creationism to teach evolution, other than to the extent that you may cover the history of evolutionary biology, and begin in the days before science took center stage and natural philosophy was dragged off with one of those big vaudeville...

    Christians is evolution really a joke?

    One of the simplest and best proofs that evolution is a joke, is the FACT that there is NO recorded history prior to 4,000 B.C. The Bible records the beginning of mankind at about 4,000 B.C., and secular history is eerily silent before 4,000 B.C. for those who claim to believe in evolution.

    Why do creationists still not believe in evolution?

    'The earth was created in 7 days... On the 4th day (I think) the sun was created'. The major flaw here is that they couldn't have measured their days without the sun. Science can also realistically give evidence to back up theories whilst with religious people, they're basically just taking a...
