Okay. First. The story of life and how it began is a guess and really not a very good guess. As a genetic engineer I understand all this. So, truly what is life. Well that would take forever and a day to go over but I would gladly do it. So let us look at this a different way. Let us throw everything out the window and think with pure logic. If God existed, how did God come into being? That there has always been the stump for any answer. Not only that, but, there are cults/religions(as defined by law) that are older than God. So, how is this answered? Well, with the standard he is all and everything. Pffft. Lame answer. Okay so we know God is a belief of humans. Why would God place a creature on a planet, where everything but humans have a purpose? Even scientifically humans have no true reason to be on this planet. We are a plague. So, why? Ugh. Such a hard question to answer. Well, now let's move on. How did we evolve. Mmmm, tough one. I have no answer as even science only has an answer of mathematical guesses. Which any person can look up. So, I will take it I don't need to relieve my education into you on this point. But, we do know for fact that most life on this planet has the same DNA structure. That is somewhat weird... So, truly what is human? Humans are not the smartest creature as dolphins are far smarter and rats have been shown to have higher brain functions. At last, it is a debate that is tough, how to make a point yet not use a "impossible to counter" answer. I believe that we need to stop looking at God. Start looking at a further study of life. God does not take into account for many many creatures from millions of years ago. God is to single minded. Much like science. So, what, is it we seek. What truly is the answer? Well, I am open to all thoughts and beliefs. But, God (a super being) well, I think is a little far fetched. Remember, humans have always said something is Devine when it couldn't be understood. More to follow. But it is 10 minutes to 2am and I seeing double. Should you wish to carry on, please, do let me know.

  • [quote]If God existed, how did God come into being? That there has always been the stump for any answer.[/quote]God, being eternal, is obviously not a test subject to observe. You then ask, "Then what evidence do you have of God even existing?" Naturally, we know that evolution itself has no explanation as to the origin of organic life manifesting from non-organic material (even Britton stated to me, "The study of abiogenesis has no explanation as to how yet."). Evolution also has no explanation as to the origin of why nature would ever need to breed intelligence in only one species, and how (no matter how much time) evolution breeds species to evolve into a new form of species without as many as having even 1,000 of transitional fossils per species . Then I assume, "God possibly?" since we know that life on Earth needed a cause, and God has no cause because, by definition, He is eternal. Then you may ask, "What justifies this fact?" and I'll respond by saying, "The Bible," and then you would arrogantly respond by saying, "What makes the Bible authentic and not a book just written by man?" to which I would respond, "It's content." to which you would say, "Well that's stupid. You can't source yourself." and then I'll explain by saying, "The Bible itself states that it was written by men endowed by the Holy Spirit of God. If anything was written by man and man alone, would there not be a perfidious motive for man? The Bible promotes God and only God, and it states that there is no other God except Him. "The Book of Moroni teaches polygamy is legal, God was once a man like us, works promote our salvation, and we will eventually be a god of our own planet and have an infinite amount of sex with our loved one(s), like God did when He had Jesus Christ. This is a highly damnable fallacy. The Catholic Church promoted the Apocrypha about 30 years after Martin Luther debunked it with the Ninety-five Thesis explaining their fallacy since the Catholic Church promoted salvation by works, the forgiveness of sins by priests, the celibacy of the Catholic priesthood, the deistic homage toward Mary, the holiness of the Pope, and more. This is a highly damnable fallacy, and how one can determine a faith to be not legit is to find whether it possesses a perfidious motive which would usually be through monetary or physical gain (The Catholic Church) or psychological self-appeasement to one's state in their version of the acclaimed after-life (The Doctrine of Mormonism). "The Bible alone, without all that additive crap, which was added to change the canon, is the [b]only[/b] text in the world that does not call one to a state of self-fulfillment, but to a state of self-denial; and so, it could not have been written by man since it didn't have the intent in the first place to appease men, but instead, it promotes throughout the entire text an individual who you believe to be our Flying Spaghetti Monster, God. If it was written by man alone, it would have at least provided some gain to an individual on Earth (e.g., The Pope or The Catholic Church) or a well-appeasing infinite carnality desire (e.g., spiritual sex or earthly polygamy in Mormonism). "To summarize, evolution has no origin so God must exist in order for life to begin to have complexity, intelligence, and organic life. [spoiler]Note: Darwin doubted the origin of complexity even in his studies written in chapter 6 of [i]On the Origin of Species[/i][/spoiler]Everything has a cause but God doesn't since He's eternal. The Bible is true because it was evidently not written by man with the intent of appeasing men, and it promotes only God and exhibits every human, even the prophets as flawed creatures that were justified for eternal damnation."

  • You do understand that, it was a human says he was writing the words of God? Pretty much makes anything written down open for debate. So, science can not explain everything. The bible has been modified over the years of its writing. Again, you prove my point. Plus, your God is young compared to the rest of history's God's. As for Dolphins yes they do have a language far more complexes than humans. Most creatures in this planet that have vocal cords are able to create and learn sounds. Ugh... This is basic biology.
