Death VS God
17:44:43 Apr 20th 09 - Mr. Josef:

It's talkorigins, not trueorigins.


17:45:35 Apr 20th 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Ah, Thanks! :p  Well, off to work.

EDIT - I found my error, while looking up Josef's site, it gave me the other one.  Tricky Google.


18:20:02 Apr 20th 09 - Mr. Josef:

The link I posted already has the answer on why The second law has no effect here and you'd know that if you opened the link and read it, but you're to much of a *beep* to do that, or to even understand what is written.

I find it hilarious that you claim I hide behind site made by men, than you post a site named christiananswers... hahhaha, wow you're not even trying are you?


18:32:02 Apr 20th 09 - Mr. Paracelzus:

i was being sarcastic

i would like to see you reinstate why the second law has no effect. Cause if you can't, you yourselve do not understand a single thing he said there.

You can't comprehend why the second law of thermodynamics as ONE person says does not apply here.

And you still can't cope with any of my posts. Cause then, you would have directly answered my question.


18:44:32 Apr 20th 09 - Mr. Paracelzus:

I will quote myself. Because i am freeken tired of debates, this is a major waist of time

"I wont waist my time spending hours on end, typing out an argument to try to help stubborn headed fools such as yourselves, with your prognostic brainwashed ideas floating in a ocean of corrupted world views, such as the one you uphold. Your sleaze arguments are to much for me, they simply drown me in pointless sordid details, who knows, there still might be some hope for you."

hahaha, unbelievable! :-)     

creationism is a science? lol, babies are made by flowers and bees? or they come out of cabbages?

21:29:00 Apr 20th 09 - Mr. Josef:

So let me understand this, you think that because I don't know something that makes you right? I understand why the second law of thermodynamics isn't broken by evolution, but I don't have to remember the proof for it just so I can type it to *beep* like you and I don't really feel I need to copy/paste it here from another site either.

The website whos link I posted has the full proof for it, I can't say the same for yours, your website is just some hear say from some guy that probably heard with from somebody else just like him, with a website like christiananswers, it's only to be expected.

I'm waiting for you to prove that the proof on TalkOrigins is false, until than you're just blowing bull*beep*.

You failed before you started.  Someone like you is too stupid to be in a debate or argument.  You are on the same level as Sepelchure/Kath because you start a thread and are not bright enough to know wtf you are talking about.  All you have made is smartass comments while Josef is the only one seriously debating it from the evolutionist side.


22:17:37 Apr 20th 09 - Lord Primate Death:

To be honest...the thread is called Death VS God. Its about a page by page dissection of the bible. For those who want to debate "creationism vs any other ism" you want, then read the forum posting rules and create your own threads.

23:12:49 Apr 20th 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Death VS God = Page by page dissection of the Bible? You must be a real genius when it comes to titles.  I still think a narrow minded imbecile like yourself shouldn't read the Bible and then literally tell us what you read.  Undertones and symbolism is something I cannot imagine you seeing.

EDIT - I just looked back.  I change my mind from "I still think a narrow minded imbecile..." to "I KNOW..."  I swear, 13-year-olds could explain it better.  As for you trying to explain easy and simple English in your double post, try reading what you wrote in your responses to the Bible and see how immature and stupid you sound.

PS - Don't talk down to me if you can't spell worth sh*t you little monkey.

00:19:02 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Killstone:

"The conclusions you draw from these facts is wishful thinking"

I draw my conclusion for myself, but I will let you draw whatever conclusion you want its your choice. My point with bringing all of these things up is that I do not see how it can be possible that everything working so harmoniously with each other to support life on this planet could all come about by chance. The chances that everything being perfect to support life on this planet is just too astronomically large for me to see or believe how it could happen by chance.

Regarding evolution i have a few questions for Josef.

What type of evolution do you believe in? (as in neo evolution etc)
What scientific evidence supports your form of evolution?

Also I'd appreciate it if everyone would stop flinging all this name calling and insulting around. I would like to have a respectable debate and I see the potential for that with Josef, but in my opinion when everyone starts insulting each other they have run out of points to support their ideas.


01:18:31 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Abyss:

or their to lazy to google it and look for the support :)


02:19:40 Apr 21st 09 - Lord Primate Death:

Fine...try Europa...current probes suggest oceans beneath the ice surface...where there's oceans, the possibility of life...and even within our solar system. Now...what were the chances of that in a solar system which contains 8 planets, 5 dwarves and 173 moons. All of a sudden that "unique" quality we have on earth is not so unique... a 1/186 chance....now factor in the billions of stars, galaxies and other solar systems....and unique goes right out the window.


04:52:52 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Killstone:

primate the nubmer of places has nothing to do with it. no where does it say that one planet in our solar system HAS to support life. the chances come from how intricate the planet that supports life is. With everything working so well with everything else on Earth the chances of it becoming the way it is by chance are astronomical.


09:33:29 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

"What type of evolution do you believe in? (as in neo evolution etc)"

I think the term you're looking for is Neo-Darwinian evolution, not neo-evolution. Besides your question is pretty vague, I'm not sure how many types of evolution you think you know of, but I only know of evolution by natural selection.

How can you even have a debate when you don't know the terms you're using.

"What scientific evidence supports your form of evolution?"

Ha? Are you kidding? How about Paleontological or Geological or Cosmological or Mathematical?

"With everything working so well with everything else on Earth the chances of it becoming the way it is by chance are astronomical."

Yes! That's probably very true, it does sound pretty bad until you realize that there are trillions and trillions of planets in space, once you realize that you realize that the Earth isn't special, it just got lucky to be in the right spot, it could very well have not been Earth, but if it wasn't than it would have been some other planet around some other star out of the billions in our galaxy alone.

I already explained this, if I see again that you're not reading and replying to my arguments I'm going to ignore you. No reason for me to type long posts if you're being the fag you are and skipping over them.


13:37:36 Apr 21st 09 - Sir Santa:

"it just got lucky to be in the right spot,"
Lucky...?


13:47:10 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

Yes, it was lucky that this particular planet is where it is, don't you think that somebody that wins the lottery is also lucky? For any single person to win the lottery is very unlikely thing to happen so the person that does is lucky, that doesn't mean the chance of the event on the whole is that unlikely or that is requires luck.

Like I said it very well could have been some other planet that was at the right distance from its star to have liquid water, so that fact that this planet was one of those planets is lucky, that doesn't mean the event requires luck when you consider you have trillions and trillions of planets.

I can't believe I'm spending this much time explaining such basic probabilistic math, are you people just retarded or are your schools that bad?


13:49:27 Apr 21st 09 - Sir Santa:

You clearly missed my sarcasm Josef. You said Earth was lucky, take a good look at the world and what mankind has done to it. I wouldn't say Earth was lucky, more like doomed...


13:53:54 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

You're right! It would have been much better if it was like Venus, where you'd be flatter than a pancake.

You people need to stop thinking of the Earth like it's some kind of being, we're not hurting the Earth with pollution, Earth is nothing except just a planet like countless others, the only people we're hurting by polluting is yourselves.

17:22:28 Apr 21st 09 - Sir Twelve Inch Cucumber:

You know..... this thread made me open my eyes to something.

No, my eyes are not open to God. Nor are my eyes open to No God.

My eyes are wide open to the extremely remarkable fact... that Cobra aka Josef... can actually sound so... educated... intelligent... erudite..... heck, CIVILISED!!!

There must be a God.... and he must have given Cobra a heart and some manners :)

[Tonight's prayer: God, please keep the old Cobra away. Stick him under the carpet, flush him down the toilet, throw him into the sun, stick him in a blackhole, whatever Almighty You does, please... do not let him come back to shower us with his Neanderthalism :P We like this brand new, retooled, upgraded version of Cobra without all the defects of the old one ^_^]


17:55:53 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Killstone:

I only know of two types of evolution. One is that the improvements in species happened in a very short time through large mutations most likely caused by some sort of radiation. The other is a bunch of very small improvements that happened over millions and billions of years. I take it you believe in the second one Josef?

I should have looked up the names because I couldn't quite remember them but those are the two that I know of and you were right it is neo-darwinism and not neo-evolution, my mistake.

But if you do beleive in the idea that species changed gradually over a long amount of time, then I have another question for you. How do you explain the fossils in the cambrian layer of rock?

According to the Macroevolution that took place over a great amount of time the cambrian layer of rock (second to the lowest estimated to be formed about 570-500 million years ago) should only contain the very simplest multicellular life forms.

Although this is what SHOULD be in that layer of rock, in the early 1900s a paleontologist named Charles Walcott found thousands of fossils in a layer of cambrian rock called the Burgess Shale. These fossils, much to the surprise of Walcott, were not just simple multicellular life forms. In fact he found fossils from every major animal phylum that exists. Some of these fossils showed very complex life forms existed during that time period 570-500 million years ago.

How did those fossils get there if these life forms should not have appeared for atleast another 100 million years?

Another question i have about evolution which I've never seen asked before and has always made me curious. When a mutation occurs that improvements the way of sexual reproduction, how does that organism have offspring?

You have a ton of single celled bacteria that all reproduce a-sexually. Eventually, in order to progress farther through evolution, one of these mutations will have to change so that an organism produces sexually with a mate of the opposite gender. (after all humans cant reproduce a-sexually) i know im jumping far in the evolutionary process but im just using it as an example from a-sexual reproduction to sexual reproduction. lets say an a-sexual bacteria mutates into a sexualy reproducing fish. In order for that species of fish to survive he/she will need a mate in order to have offspring. How is it possible if mutations only happen over a lot of years that another mutation will happen within the same general area of the last mutation that a fish of the opposite gender that reproduces sexually will be made within the other fish's life time?


18:07:34 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Killstone:

I forgot to address one of your points. You said that sicne there are trillions and trillions of planets in the galaxy chances are one of them must support life.

So using your logic, there are trillions and trillions of rocks on the earth, one of them must talk.


19:00:40 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

"I take it you believe in the second one Josef?"

Yes, that is correct.

"How do you explain the fossils in the cambrian layer of rock?"

Quite easily, Walcott's expectations were a result of the information of the time, at that time most expected that life didn't evolve more than the multicell level during the cambrian period.

They were of course quite wrong, modern day information has pushed the fossil records up to 3.5 billion years back, before the Cambrian period there was the Proterozoic, which lasted about 2 billion years, macroscopic fossils were found belonging to the final period of the Proterozoic called the Vendian Period.

So Walcott's fossils aren't some knife to kill Evolution, they are part of Evolution, just like Darwin predicted.

"Another question i have about evolution which I've never seen asked before and has always made me curious. When a mutation occurs that improvements the way of sexual reproduction, how does that organism have offspring?"

The same way white people can have kids with blacks, or asians. The same way different kinds of dogs from different races can breed with dogs not of their own race. The same way horses and donkeys can breed.

You make a often seen mistake and think we can just draw a line and say race A evolved into race B and the two are now separate, evolution is a slow and gradual process.

As for your a-sexual reproduction to fish, well theer are billions of years between the two as such there never was a a-sexual fish.

A process of slow and gradual evolution by natural selection is possible, at the first levels you didn't have different sexes of a bacteria, you just had genetic exchange between bacteria, sexes evolved a lot later than the act of sharing genetic code.

"So using your logic, there are trillions and trillions of rocks on the earth, one of them must talk."

Oh for *beep*'s sake, can't you tell the difference between something that is impossible, a rock talking, and something that has a very small chance of happening, but it still CAN happen.

One has the chance of happening 0% and the other has only a small chance, say 0.0000001%, but that is still higher than 0%, and any event that has higher chance of happening than 0 will happen given a long enough number of possible cases.

A rock talking has 0% chance, as such it won't ever talk, the chance that a planet be at the right distance from it's star to have liquid water might be small, but it's still higher than 0, in which case giving enough stars and planets, at least some will be in the liquid water zone.


19:08:45 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

Here's another link about what lived in the Vendian period, with pictures of the fossils.

When I got years of debate experience and basically know every argument any deist can bring and how to attack it almost by heart.

The reason I don't go around in every thread and honour it with my knowledge is because none of you are worth my bother, Killstone just got lucky, he left me with the impression that he might actually listen so I gave it a try. Any time I can get a true believer to at least question his beliefs is mission well done for me, these are battles that you win one person at a time.

So for your information, educated, erudite Cobra was here long before badass, troll Cobra was, in fact troll Cobra evolved because educated Cobra realized most of you are *beep*ing imbeciles that aren't worthy of my real attention.

I think you missed my point. All the current beings evolved from eachother according to evolution. At one point the a sexual organism would have to change to a sexual organism. How could the sexual organism reproduce if there were no other sexual organisms to mate with (because they are all a sexual)?

"Oh for *beep*'s sake, can't you tell the difference between something that is impossible, a rock talking, and something that has a very small chance of happening, but it still CAN happen.

I am going to make an assumption, which could be wrong, but I am going to assume you believe in abiogenesis (http://www.biology-online.org/dictionary/Abiogenesis), am I correct in this assumption?

If I am correct then what is the difference between the idea of nonliving chemicals spontaneously reacting to form a living matter with DNA, and the idea of a non living rock spontaneously reacting with its surroundings developing vocal cords and gaining the ability to speak?

Also, again if my assumption about you believing in abiogenesis is correct, how does the reaction between the nonliving matter gain DNA or RNA?

One more question in this post: If the mutations between species were small and happened over a long period of time, then wouldn't there be some fossil evidence of an animal between species (aka an intermediate link)?

"I think you missed my point. All the current beings evolved from eachother according to evolution. At one point the a sexual organism would have to change to a sexual organism. How could the sexual organism reproduce if there were no other sexual organisms to mate with (because they are all a sexual)?"

Even now there are bacteria which can reproduce by both asexual and sexual means, as far as I remember the asexual reproduction is basically a cloning of itself, and the sexual one is creating a new genetic individual, I would assume that such a mechanism was used in the early earth also.

"If I am correct then what is the difference between the idea of nonliving chemicals spontaneously reacting to form a living matter with DNA, and the idea of a non living rock spontaneously reacting with its surroundings developing vocal cords and gaining the ability to speak?"

First thing... I don't believe, abiogenesis isn't a religion, but yes abiogenesis probably is possible, I say probably because we don't know for sure at this time. People much smarter than I are working on creating abiogenesis in labs, but haven't been succesful as of yet.

There are things we do know about abiogenesis, we know pretty much how it should look like, in the sense of what we'd need to have in the mix to generate and a rock isn't it.

Even if we'd add rock and some DNA and it did react to form some sort of rock based lifeform, it would probably take it billions of years to evolve a mouth, let alone vocal cords, since a mouth evolved as a way to introduce food into the system, and it's not clear what a rock based lifeform would eat. The function for comunication evolved much later than the mouth.

"Also, again if my assumption about you believing in abiogenesis is correct, how does the reaction between the nonliving matter gain DNA or RNA?"

If I knew that I'd be winning this years Nobel Prize in biology, it's one of the greatest questions in science right now. I'll be the first one to admit there are many things we don't know yet, like I said before, only Creationists claim to know everything.

"If the mutations between species were small and happened over a long period of time, then wouldn't there be some fossil evidence of an animal between species (aka an intermediate link)?"

There are plenty of intermediate links, but every time we point one out, creationists come along and say well, how about that gap between the first organism and the intermidiet and the one between the intermidiat and the second one.

Let me just give you an example of an intermidiet link, you know how birds evolved from dinosaurs, well have a look at the Archaeopteryx, which is a very early bird, that actually had more in comman with dinosaurs than to modern day birds, but it did have feathers and wings.

Fact is there are many fossils for intermidiate links, but when one is pointed out all a creationist sees are the two gaps between the intermidiate and the organisms you wanted to find the intermidiate link at the start.


22:20:20 Apr 21st 09 - Sir Gilth:

Killstone.

There are organisms that can reproduce both ways.

here is an example about a whiptail lizard. (search the text)
Most probably, organisms developed sexual reproduction, without losing asexual reproduction at first. Later on, they lost the ability to reproduce asexually. (Evolution)

It's pretty much a fact, once you say "God did it!", what else is there?


23:21:13 Apr 21st 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Quite a bit actually...science and religion can overlap pretty well in certain areas.  You don't have to choose A or B because there are some in betweens


23:25:38 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

I'm dying to know which these are, what exactly does religion bring to science that science by itself can't do?

Only way science and religion work together is when science proves something and religion has to find a new way to explain that "God did it!" while respecting whatever science just proved.

Middle ground? Don't make me laugh.

Like Dawkins said, nothing but "God of the gaps".


23:31:16 Apr 21st 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Well right now you claim science can prove everything so obviously you are being just like "all creationists."  You cannot even prove all of it yourself because it is only a theory and scientists are still trying to figure out how a ocean full of jumbled organic pieces magically became life. 

Lumping everyone of everything into one group is just generalizing and that is a stupid psychological mindset.


23:32:22 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Supreme Ruler:

josef you cant have its pretty much a fact because fact means it is 100% always true and not 90%+ so gotta choose either fact or whether its your opinion. Plus got any evidence to back that up?


23:34:02 Apr 21st 09 - Mr. Josef:

I didn't say I can prove everything, quite the reverse in fact, and I stand by the fact that creationists claim to know everything, since "God did it!" is that, everything.

Just because you're naive enough to think "God did it!" adds anything useful to science only reveals your gullibility, "God did it!" is the end of science, not the begining.

I get the feeling you're trying and failing to troll around here.
