Its just downright lazy not to appreciate the physics, chemistry, and biology that makes life so.
Nonsense. I appreciate all of that. I'm completely marveled by it. I just credit God with the design of it. I personally think it's weird to think that a group of some of the smartest men and women on the planet who reverse-engineer some of it have the need to attribute it to natural magic.
Also, show me a scientist in any field who can take an inanimate object and bring it to a biologically functional life and maybe I'll change my mind. I haven't heard of anything yet. Keep in mind that the words physics, chemistry, and biology are just labels that men have given different aspects of their studies. They're just categories we use to separate and communicate the different parts of the greater picture.
I think I'm being misunderstood here. I'm not saying "It's all God. There is no science." It's the others saying "it's all science, there is no God." I love science. It helps me understand all this stuff God created.
As for the watch analogy, you're stick in the dirt would have to eventually turn into a modern day watch made up of all wooden parts if you wanna compare it to mine. You've changed materials explaining the advances in design and technology. My analogy would've had to be we went from being amoebas to robots. Man, this place loves to split hairs.
And for RickTibbler - just like everyone has been goose-piling on others recently for the content, I'll say the same... there are thousands of other threads you can click on if this isn't of any interest to you. You came in voluntarily just to say you don't like it.
I find it weird also that for being such a "tight knit community" and everyone here is just "the bestest friends in the world" that it's preferred to be so shallow. No one wants to talk about anything with any teeth to it. OMG! RELIGION! RUUUUN!!!!! There are several of us in here who enjoy more than "what movie did you watch?" and "What do you think of these feet I saw at the park today?" Seriously. I know this is a tickling based forum, but that's all you have to say to each other? And everyone has to agree or the shit hits the fan.
Just so I don't have to keep posting novels, I state for the record:
- I'm not a Jesus Freak. I'm a Christian.
- I don't hate science. I love science.
- I don't need everyone to agree with me. It's healthy to disagree. Honestly.
- I love gays. I love lesbians. I love atheists, Buddhists, Muslims... I love everyone. I can't help it. It goes with being a Christian. You wouldn't understand.
- We don't need to debate every post that has something to do with religion, politics, etc. Everyone just barges in, runs at the mouth and tries to bully the person who mentions a "taboo" topic until they shut up. Bad form.
- This place is not the open forum it was 5 years ago. And those who've been here know it.
