How To Argue With A Creationist - Measure My Pine Cone

I try to give a couple aging memes a little twist too! This is the first in the HTAWAC series in green screen. I talk about measurement and how it applies to science, as well as the implications for overturning something that has been discovered through better measurements. The chances of an "overturn" tend to drop to near zero once the measuring instrument can see the mechanism for a phenomenon, and it is thoroughly studied.

Evolution is not science! Evolution is theory + belief = RELIGION. Ya see nobody ever saw a dog come from a cow or a ape give birth to a human. And before Columbus discovered the earth was round the Bible had all ready bet him to the deal. ( If only they had read the bible they would have known). See the religion of evolution is dangerous, Hitler believe in evolution and said the Jews and blacks where not fully human and was holding back the whites evolution to god state and killed millions.

@Donking595 This is so bizarre that I'm not sure if you're serious or not. That's a bad sign if you're serious.

Atheists claim logic? Here is logic for ya. If atheists are correct and there is no god, then at death we all end, everybody is equal at death. If religion is right, and there is a god and a judgement, then all atheists have a lot to answer for at death. Point. Follow atheism and you have 0% chance of good reward after death. Follow Religion and you have a 50/50. The logical person would choose religion, because if religion is right, you get the reward, and if not, you have lost nothing:)

@TheDeautrive Oh dear, still arguing for Pascal's Wager? *facepalm* You realize you would need to pick the RIGHT religion first? Oh, and also there is the time wasted devoted to religion in the ONLY life you have. 

[TheDeautrive]

@Zaunstar This was more a joke than anything. For actual reason for not being an atheist, read my former post, then look up how stars are formed and the probability of random star formation, then multiply that by the number of stars just in our galaxy. It's a small number. Also, Energy cannot be created or destroyed, and the final state of energy is heat. Where did energy come from? And after enough "Big Bangs", all energy would have dissipated as heat into space. There is a god.

[Zaunstar]

@TheDeautrive Do you even understand how stars formed? You may want to watch NOVA on this. You don't even seem to have enough basic science knowledge for me to even begin to want to argue with you. I don't have time to catch you up on the latest 150 years of discoveries. *:-(

you will never convince these dummies, they believe in adam and eve , who lived till they were 950 yrs old, and had incest. then around 1900 man was living till about 50, and now we are at average of 80. so that fairy tale makes alot of sense to dummies only. lmfao ps 80% of usa believe in that fairy tale cause it makes them feel good about them selves then we have 20% of people with common sense period

@TheDeautrive Here Logic for you! I Rather live a whole life living in the now and reality of whats actually happening rather than hallucinating something ive been raised to believe.

can you measure that empty place within your chest nothing seems satisfy though you find something new and does for awhile until much like these videos after that what? I hope you one day realize it is your sins that separated you from your God and that hole that nothing seems to fill is a place is meant for God and only the Lord Jesus can fill it

Evolution occurs, yes, but within species. We humans have evolved. We have Skin difference, nose adaptation, brain function adaptation, but the funny thing is that a big white person can still breed with a small asian. Or an indian can breed with an african. We evolve, but we can still breed. What happens when a chimp and a human go at it. Nothing. Want to know why, chromosomes don't line up. You can't evolve ouside of your gene pool without being the first and last of your kind.

[TheDeautrive]

Arguement. Animals with different numbers of genes cannot breed. How then, if a new species is spawned, will it continue? example: men come from apes. A human cousin is born. What is it going to breed with? If you say that a male and female with the EXACT same genetic evolution are born within the same proximity, you are retarded. How then do different species come to be? they can't change too much or they can't breed. If they don't change too much than they are the same animal. :)
