1st Foundational Falsehood of Creationism

My personal rant against one of foremost falsehoods of the creationism movement; the idea that accepting evolution is tantamount to declaring atheism, or that one need be creationist to be Christian.

No I DID NOT. That was your opinion. I told you that I t was not an absolute at 1:13.

There is something called a squared circle. It's slang for a wrestling ring.

It's frustrating, right? He's already conflated the definitions of "believe" and "understand" and equated science to religion.

Next, he'll be yammering on about a square circle or something equally batshit.

Let's be honest here. There are, say, 2 Billion Christians. 54% believe in creation. Thus, it's 1 Billion.

Science=Religion.

This was sandwiched together so its hard to see what your point is. You cannot say that people who believe In evolution are at least know something in the fields. You're main support comes from Catholics. And they just do what the Pope says.

Also, allele changes? I think you mean adaptation....

Billion or so Christians that believe in Creation... Do you have any idea how moronic that is? That would mean almost 100% of Christians would be Creationists but that is obviously not true... It's quite simply how they know of science and it is because it makes everything those Christians take for granted possible. Most of the people alive today are alive because of science and it's discoveries.... that have long replaced the falsehoods of religion.

[mosquitoe4]

Unlike the Creationist tactics, of every single logical fallacy there is, at least most of them. Also, you do not have to know anything to believe in creation, you merely need to believe, simply saying God did can explain anything. The same cannot be said for evolution, because you need to be able to understand at least some of biology to understand evolution, as evolution is change in allele frequencies, so knowing what an allele is is a good place to start.

have to go now. You were amusing though.

I never said cancer can be cured by Cyanide (although I can see how you might think it would halt it's progress) and I never said Apples had been banned. (that was you)

It's not unusual to find atheists who read one thing only to have it register as something else in their mind. I'm certain that a correlation could be found between Dyslexia and Atheism because I see it played out over and over again.

I think it should be spelled 'Slexdesia' so people who have it will know what they've got!

[mark41776]

Well, you go jack off and I guess I'll go celebrate another victory.

And really? Skulking my posts and even falsifying information?
