Creationist Challenge

I am issuing a (rather cliche) challenge video in which I welcome Creationists and ID'ers to submit their proofs and to join into a discussion with Evolutionists so that we may all debate, maturely, about the origins of life and the universe.

Main Rule: No logical fallacies; keep your arguments intelligent please.

People dont do proper research today. If they did they would realise that modern science and FACT often do not agree. But don't let the complete lack of evidence for darwinist theory stop you. Bad theory dies hard, especially when there are too many oversized ego's and reputations to safeguard. It was not long ago that respected doctors encouraged pregnant women to smoke, then sent them away with some opium and a handful of bennys for good measure. Was when the Komodo Dragon didn't exist right?

Ah, but modern science says that smoking while pregnant can cause birth defects... perhaps modern science, as you say, is wrong? Science makes claims on all current evidence, when new evidence comes up, it changes it. That's actually the most sensible way... unless you have a better one?

Another one.

Dr. Gentry, whom even the evolutionists describe as a "careful and competent researcher" have found conclusive evidence for the instant formation of the earth's granite crust. He found radioactive halos for 218Po, 214Po, and 210Po, whose half-lives are 3 min, 164 microsec, and 138 days). These halos (esp. 214 Po) could never have formed in granite if the earth was not formed instantly by either some kind of unfathomable technology--or supernatural means. This points to a creator.

You are ignoring almost all evidence for the Theory of Evolution in hopes that the fleeting arguments made by Creationists are correct. And actually, it is a theory. Not a hypothesis. It is overwhelmingly accepted by the scientific community (you know... those who actually do research, unlike us average joe's) and has not been disproven yet.

[provita]

In fact.. I tell you what. Since you are so thrilled to "disprove" Evolutionary Theory... quite simply publish a scientific journal to the scientific community and let the experiments begin. If you are, indeed, correct... eventually scientists will see this and will embrace the new theory. Until then, you don't really have much backing.

[provita]

Now, please, as I asked in this exact video, give me scientific evidence the world is: a) 6000 or so years old and b) is created by a god or gods.

[bigboyvernon]

Neither creationists nor macro evolutionists can offer you conclusive proof that their view is correct; but I feel that if you weigh the evidences on both sides, the preponderance of the evidence points away from macro evolution and towards a God created universe. That is my take on it, and I don't intend to be antagonistic.

Infinity(Space and Time)are limitless.If you want to know the origin of man,universe etc. you may want to look there.If infinity exists in itself is it so hard to think maybe a God could be infinite too.The Universe was created from nothing ,but,that nothing is actually something science is too young to fathom yet.

Word to the wise: It's difficult to play chess with people who think we're playing checkers.

how can you get a logical response from people who believe in superstitions ??? Its a failed argument right out of the gate. The Easter bunny will win all arguments on "faith" alone.

[ManBearPiglet]

You can't be skeptical of denial. Skepticism is refusing to believe something until you see evidence for it. You can't refuse to not believe something because there is no evidence for disbelief. Disbelief is the absence of belief.

I refuse to deny the existence of fairies in my garden, simply because there is no evidence to show that they DON'T exist, and I am skeptical of their non existence.

You cannot believe in atheism, you can just NOT believe in theism.

[tep2005]

I'm getting a bit weary of this (I'm sorry, but convincing one guy is just not motivating enough for me), so I'll leave you with this thought.

Do you know that there is no true "skeptic?" Those whoa re skeptical about the existence of God certainly are not skeptical of atheism, neither are they skeptical of their skepticism.

It take faith to be an atheist--tons of faith, when you consider the lack of small-increment-transitional forms in fossils, lack of understanding of the first life...etc.

youtube doesn't seem to handle the reply function well, so I'm just going to do an individual post.

Provita, when you see the painting of a beautiful woman on a wall, you assume it had an intelligent cause, someone, or some "thing" did it and not some random processes over millions of years.

Layman often fail to realize the intricacies of life but as a bio sci. grad. from UC Irvine, I can tell you, a cell is more complex than a space shuttle, let alone a painting.
