[QUOTE="NEp8ntballer, post: 11978971, member: 137316"] because despite man's best efforts they still fill an ecological niche and have the resources to support a population. Take away the habitat and resources and you can make anything extinct if it can't adapt quickly enough. read a book by a scientist like Stephen Hawking instead of the wisdom of goat herders from 2000+ years ago. Or one of the books on evolution by Dawkins like The Blind Watchmaker would be a good read as well. way to repurpose the watchmaker argument, so this one doesn't even dignify a response Humans are not special. Do you really think that a 14 billion light year wide universe exists soley for a human population to exist on a rock that is microscopic in scale to our very own GALAXY let alone the universe and that this creator set it up to create life on this little blue marble? it's still a fallacy of equivocation. You can't compare a man made item to the universe. What is the purpose of life oh great knowing one?(inbefore43) We are one of the few species that we know of that are aware of our own mortality... And when you get down to it we all come from a long line of successful ancestors and our purpose in life is to pass these genes on to our descendants(read The Selfish Gene) the size of our brain in relation to our bodies and especially the size of our cerebrum help us the most in our ability to conduct high level thinking. I feel sorry for you because I find this wonderful accident of a universe much more amazing because of it than if it was created by magic. no... Sharing a common ancestor is like having the same great-great-great grandparents not that we came from our cousin [B]TL;DR: educate yourself you twit[/B] no, but one does not need the other and there is no need to invoke a designer/creator so why have one? Also, Occam's razor. This shows me that you don't understand the enormous weight behind a scientific theory and are thus entirely unable to properly form an opinion on the subject due to a fundamental misunderstanding of science as a whole. We don't know, which is much more admirable to claiming that some omnipotent being did it and refusing to search for a good answer. We don't know where the christian god comes from but that leap in faith hasn't stopped billions of people. Although many now agree that god came from the imagination of man... prove it, please... as a person holding a Biology degree I will tell you that the reason why is quite simple, it is extremely arrogant to be sure of anything. Especially when it comes to the existence of something that cannot be proven due to lack of evidence. The American lead for the Human Genome Project believes in the christian god. I don't know how, but he can reconcile it. It doesn't make him any better or worse at his job as long as he can check his faith at the door in the search for deepening human understanding. but to stand here and preach to the stance that there is a God, well that's entirely different... I have more than just Evolution on my side for why the religion(especially the Christian religion) is bullshit. If it wasn't for people trying to reconcile their faith with what we know to be true Intelligent Design wouldn't even exist. Literal word of god... Where literal doesn't mean shit... then what's debated? Macroevolution is the formation of a new species while microevolution is changes in a population where certain traits are selected for causing genetic shifts... yep, you have all the answers... You mean Cosmology? That thing that is one of the most happening fields right now and is quickly breaking down the last bastions of ignorance that we have about our universe and how it came to be thus further killing the 'wisdom' of the bible? And to think of all those poor Hindus, Muslims and Jews that will never know God... Pascal's wager? You're just full of shitty arguments aren't you? There are thousands of religions and you have all your chips in one basket, if you're wrong you're no better off than I am... because I find religion to be abhorrent and brings out the worst qualities in man. Nobody has ever done anything more vigorously than in the name of their chosen god. Yay! [/QUOTE]
