A Brain to See God's Handiwork

Acts 17:29

Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

One of the most difficult problems for those who believe that we are the product of millions of years of evolution is the human brain. The human brain has ten billion times 25,000 neural connections. If you work it out, this means that a miracle would have to take place if we evolved from an ape like creature on the time scale that evolutionists propose: every generation would have had to have many thousands more neural connections than the last!

Even more astonishing is the fact that we are not born with a brain that is a blank slate. Several studies have shown that even infants as young as three months expect things to behave in certain ways. In one study, three month old infants showed surprise when researchers made an object they were looking at disappear. Another study showed that young infants expect inanimate things not to move by themselves. But they expect living things to move all by themselves. Such built in "programming" in the brain enables us to progress more quickly as we learn about the world around us.

The problem of the complexity of the human brain, and the fact that it seems to come preprogrammed, ultimately caused Alfred Russel Wallace, an influential evolutionist, to switch to belief in a Creator. The more we learn about what God has created, the more likely we are to conclude that we are indeed the work of a wise Creator. He has even given us a brain capable of seeing that.

Prayer: I thank You, dear Father, for the intelligence You have given me. Amen.

Your either a liar or misinformed. The bible clearly states the earth is a sphere Isaiah 40:22 says the earth is a circle.

[jakedevon]

"According to the old testament, the earth is flat..."

Please show me a verse from the Bible that indicate that the earth is flat.

@DaNorthernLight i have no interest, begone

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight wonk wonk wonk, all you do is talk shit.

I never made a pretense of being here to debate, you did, so turning that back on me means nothing.

Crawl back under your rock, you purposeless little fundie puppet

And believe it or not, the internet is world wide. Believe it or not, not everyone is in the same country as you.

Go touch up your pillows, or whatever else it is you do. Fight it, die for it, sink your teeth into it I really don't care.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight don't act like you came here to discuss anything, you did not.

You are a troll, sir, nothing more. Your flourid words disguise a petty little brain.

And you sir, are the world's greatest pillow biter.

Again, cease and desist I have nothing to say to a worm like you.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight seriously what drugs are you on?

Who said anything about telling my friends anything? Is this an indication of your age? If so, begone child I have nothing to say to a petulant child having a tantrum.

Speeding ticket? wtf. Lay off the drugs.

And sorry to hear that you can't spell, but that is your burden not mine. It does speak to education level though, and of course this would explain your failures re: understanding evolution

So perhaps know your limitations then.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight I did not amend anything, really. I just tried to make it understandable for you, since basic english seemed to present difficulties for you.

And this is pointless.

You are pointless.

Please cease and desist in speaking to me, you have nothing to say which is of any relevance whatsoever nor holds any interest to me.

Go troll elsewhere, fundie fool.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight wow, your mental dissonance is something to behold.

I responded to the 2nd or 3rd comment on the initial page for this video.

I have no obsession with you, it was you who posted to me and has continued this pointless exchange.

You mentioned Hitler, there was no need to do so it had no relevance to anything being spoken of and so I brought it up. Obvious and not requiring explanation (for anyone else).

Skirmishes? What skirmishes.

You are either fantasizing or projecting.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight yes it is the second reference to your projecting.

Thus the use of the word "again".

This is fairly standard use of the english language. And the problem is....?

Would you prefer if I had written "Again, you are projecting".

I have no qualms with considering that as done if this is the basis of your "oh so reasonable" objections.

And then you move to argumentum ad hitlerium, of course.

Ahhh, that old chestnut.

You cited Hitler, you lose.

Better luck next time Troll.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight I replied to a post near the top of the list as displayed by YouTube, I did not look at nor consider the age of the post.

If you have issues with the manner or order in which YouTube displays comments, then I suggest you take it up to them.

And you can spell? How nice for you, many can't, you must be so proud.

And, while I can definitely see my comment could be insulting to a particular group, I note you don't suggest it is untrue.

Telling, that.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight also...

Troll?????

YOU have been trolling this video for at least a year (proven by your own comments in the lists).

I had posted here only the once before you falsely accused me of being a troll.

Again you project.

And that is pathetic, that you would use such nonsense as your instant "go to" position. That is indicative of the weakness of your position.

[eltzar72]

@DaNorthernLight

Troll?

No, you're looking at your own reflection again.

Your claim is, as are likely to be most claims made by fools, baseless.

And I worship no one.

Again you are projective your weak mindset outward, but it is indicative only of yourself.
