    Alternative Viewpoints on Jesus

    from my POV i aggree that jesus was no spiritual being, he was just a man who did great thing in his life. from what i was taught jesus only became the son of god because of constantine wanting political power, before that jesus was just a spiritual leader.

    If life evolves under the right conditions, “Where is everybody?”

    yeah i think the drake equation (used by seti to estimate the number of lifeforms in our galaxy) says that only 1% of the stars in our universe could have a planet supporting life orbiting it. and of that 1% of planets only 1% of them could hold intelligent life. so were looking for 1 ten...

    If life evolves under the right conditions, “Where is everybody?”

    why though? if god exists and created all of the universe and everything in it, why would he make some little insignificant planet the only place with life? if this is the only planet with life why bother with the rest. sure its pretty to look at but thats it theres no real purpose to it. or...

    Evolution Intuitive?

    quite right. but so would newton, coulomb, ohmn, etc. every theory created in the past has been modified have a dozen times as the technology has improved. im sure in 50 years all modern quantum theories will have been changed as measurement technology advances. saying a historic scientist was...

    Evolution Intuitive?

    what about costal erosion? over hunting a species? both of these things are a composite effect, little things over time that have caused big events so why not the same for genetics?

    Creationists in Europe are getting organized.

    was it the aliens? a shady goverment organization? u make it sound like a global conspiricy. creationism was binned becuase of the huge holes in it. evidence for a 6000 yr old 'poofing' incident have yet to be seen. stars, rocks, fossils, human civilisation all agree that the earth and indeed...

    Creationist Challenge - Build the Ark

    just as a side challenge. if you can build the ark,fill it with two of every animal and set it afloat successfully for x amount of time, you must also be able to keep the species alive without having the genetic faults that show up from extended incestual breeding.

    Creationist Challenge - Build the Ark

    there must be more, im sure even with every glacier, ice cap, etc melting completely we would not see 80+ foot higher sea levels. or is this figure dependant on differences in the land formations/ relative heights?

    Creationist Challenge - Build the Ark

    if we're using fiction as evidence im going with 'atlantis' by david gibbins. atlantis is where the black sea is now with the bosphorous keeping the mediterainian out. then the med floods and atlantis drowns, most die but some build boats and float away to safety with their animals. there we...

    Scientists and Clerics Agree: Keep Creationism out of Schools

    because they are the same thing :sarcastic well at least to creationists who seem to forget when told evolution has nothing at all to do with abiogenisis. maybe if they hadnt skipped evolution due to 'religious grounds' they would know this.

    do we have a 'time'

    'it was his time' is a phrase often used when someone has died even with the best medical care. I was wondering if you believe we all have a time at which we are destined to die and nothing we do can change this fact?

    Christianity in America and Europe

    a good example is a RC nurse who was recently sacked from the NHS is the UK for revealing to a friend that said friends daughter had recently had an abortion. the woman was denounced by several leaders in the UK RC church for this behaviour. wheras what ive seen of US anti abortion groups this...

    why 'creationist science' is oxymoronic

    'I'll leave that to creationist scientists' is a claim used by many on this forum when they run out of things to back up their beliefs. Unfortunately this doesnt work as creation science is worthless. when a scientist does an experiment he will go in with a blank mind, he knows either his...

    The "Dark Energy" - Can it be God.

    unfortunately thats impossible, in 5 billion years (i think) the sun runs out of fuel and starts expanding, eventually the earth will fall into the sun, vaporised. but not before the oceans boil, the sky burns and all life dies. or are you going with the 1984 argument - that time began with...

    Children, they are important.

    the thing about evolution is that you can opt out of the lessons on 'religious grounds'. i think the teachers should ask if anyone has a religious objection, say tuff ****** and teach them it anyway, then the kids can go and teach their parents the truth so we can end this ridiculous argument...

    Is the Perpetuation of the Myth of the Antichrist’s Number Being 666 a Conspiracy?

    was there not a recent discovery that 666 is not the number of the beast but it is in fact 616 and it is just due to repetition that 666 is seen as the correct number?

    was jesus gay?

    don't know if its evidence but i remember something about jewish society back then demanding early marriage. for jesus to be unmarried and hanging around with a group of men seems strange. why a possibly gay man (at least not of the social norm) would be seen as a leader (back then) is odd to me.

    was jesus gay?

    Sir Elton John has recently reopened the debate on the sexuality of jesus. of course conservative christian groups have rubbished these claims. i know this has probably been discussed millions of times but i was wondering what people thought about this.

    - Teach the Controversy -

    is there an actual bible quote that says there is a flat earth? because i remember some quiz that said the greeks knew the earth was round and its just a victorian (not sure) fallacy that they believed the earth was flat. if thats true it'd be brilliant that creationists are arguing for...

    Natural selection vs intelligence

    i would say it does. by all rights humanity should not have survived (from a biological stance) we have no real defences (fists and teeth dont realy cut it for an animal our size) and an ice age would have killed us due to the cold. only our intellegence helped us survive so id say it can...
