That Atheist Blog

Sandwich, anyone?... I rather have them in eggs and sausage, with red hot sauce.... lol

@Solomon - with a side of jalapenos!

@Terry - Satan isn't my co-pilot, I'm pretty sure he was in the next cubicle in an office I worked at about 10 years ago judging from the noises & smells that came from over there in the adjoining cubicle and he was a in the guise of a horrendously obese woman who loved to wear polyester pants.....it sounded like two pieces of sandpaper being rubbed together whenever she walked by.....:::: shudder:::::yep I'm sure it was Satan.

@Carol - I think anyone that thinks we came from people who lived in an enchanted garden with a talking snake or thinks a being out in space created the earth and everything on it - should just take the time to watch this video and ask themselves some honest questions.

so, when does this talking monkey in tend to prove anything he says in this video?

@Vixen Phuxalot - Why are you so angry about physics and evolution?

@Phuxalot, he was paid by fellow monkey but had been skeptics all along ! Nice voice for a monkey to go along with its humble beginning as organism... lol

Evolution can be proven. Macro evolution is a work of science fiction. The fossils cannot and will not show macro evolution. I've personally never met a biologist who was also a fan of creationism or intelligent design, because the opposite can be proven on so many levels. I've seen too much dishonesty in the realm of creationists trying to prove their point because they use their view point to make the evidence fit that view point. Instead of allowing the evidence shape the view point to come to a legitimate, honest conclusion.

@Solomon LOL

@JoLynn 3am Art, in the Bible, such evolution's beginning is with the Serpent or singular cell in science, and one of the final form among its branches in tree of life, where Charles Darwin excel, were Adam and Eve whom God took. Funny but those Scriptures was written thousands of years ago where most of us used to be hanging around in the branches of trees... lol
Mysteries of all mysteries, all in all of this, everything that comes from nothing, comes down to personal relationships... Love is surely a great thing to reckon with. :o)

@Solomon :)
I agree Love is wonderful and the world could use a lot more of it.

Well, well, How ya doing JoLynn. Love the comment about satan in the cubical next to you. More food for thought. It's all good.

You see? You mention Love and Pat appears! Doing great Pat - hope all is excellent in your world!

Be careful about 'Angels and Demons'... you might jeopardize your soul-mate upon them. lol

As if...LOL...!

@Anna - I know you're very religious, so are you saying there is good evidence *for* creationism? If that is what you meant - please share!

Troubles with creationism is that they don't have past or future... They are always about now as it was created which is reasonable in terms of security, as well as politically. Evidence? Well, the father became God the father, where in truth, the father also complies to the laws...

@Solomon - I wondered where you have been - good point! I just don't believe in Creationism because it's just beyond logical reason to believe a lonely being up in space created everything and the Bible even contradicts itself in that. Evolution is no longer a theory - it's supported through fossil records and our DNA which is traceable. But that won't apply to the woman that wrote me and said, "The Bible was THE most scientific book ever because it was written by the most intelligent being in the universe".
I have to disagree.

The Bible was eloquently and well define of how God should be in our own Image... but as it is as in the Image... The final form is us! So, from 'dust to dust' is the evolution...whereby, the soul is where the religion is up to of their works and proclamations within the flesh, where the life that we hold on so much as if it is the only reasonable to be with, is just a trial to some of them which is unreasonable to be and deal with for those who love and glorify life. :D!

@Solomon - well put but I personally have always had issue with "the Bible is true because it says it is true in the Bible". It's fine with me if someone wants to believe - just keep it out of my life and don't use my taxes to support churches.

Interesting subject Jo and good video, but answer me this if something was to go wrong with a close friend or member of your family, you mean to tell me you would not make a silent prayer for them to get better??
It's a good topic though thanks for sharing.

@Gloria -That's a really great question. Personally, no because prayer does nothing that is discernible. I would actually find out how I could help them instead of praying about it. I don't pray because I don't believe there's anyone listening. It's far better to do things ones own self than wait for an answer that you have to discern that was most likely created by natural factors anyway.

wow I like the explanation.

Thanks for your comment Rey - but there's no evidence any of that took place as described in the bible (which by the way should never, ever be used as a science book). Actually all the current research and evidence points to entirely different origins of humans. Which personally, I find far more amazing than coming from magic.
