Really? Your only justification is to blindly believe in what has otherwise been disproven?

2021-02-03 18:28:19 UTC  

Because in several circumstances, the other hasn't been conclusively proven. I refer you back to my long essay from yesterday.

2021-02-03 18:28:38 UTC  

Ok but lets say they all are proven to be flawed... then what?

2021-02-03 18:29:09 UTC  

The thing is, although science hasn't found a "completely 100% definitive answer" to something like the Earth's age, we've learned enough to know that the Christian explanation is wrong, so we should stop talking about it and work to find the real answer.

2021-02-03 18:30:55 UTC  

the question is has anyone witnessed the beginning of earth? So technically speaking (if we are not counting creation) then this is all just speculation. Both opinions are wrong. We don't have any evidence for either.

2021-02-03 18:31:45 UTC  

Like God

2021-02-03 18:32:11 UTC  

Sorry this is off topic but @Southernpatriot01 am I right in thinking that you guys made a Christian server a while back? If yes, could I join?

2021-02-03 18:32:20 UTC  

We did.

2021-02-03 18:32:44 UTC  

@Southernpatriot01 would I be able to join as well?

2021-02-03 18:32:59 UTC  

Yes.

2021-02-03 18:33:22 UTC  

I think they have a lot of faith

2021-02-03 18:33:57 UTC  

supposedly

2021-02-03 18:34:04 UTC  

Well I have said in my large message that I'm not a scientist.

2021-02-03 18:34:08 UTC  

can they?

2021-02-03 18:34:34 UTC  

but every time I research evolution I see holes

2021-02-03 18:35:11 UTC  

no but it does mean evolution isn't right either

2021-02-03 18:35:19 UTC  

But here's the thing

2021-02-03 18:35:26 UTC  

Evolution doesn't have to be fully fledged out to disprove God

2021-02-03 18:35:48 UTC  

never said they equal God I said they just make me doubt evolution

2021-02-03 18:36:43 UTC  

Yes, but even if evolution isn't entirely developed as a complete and total theory, but we have MILLIONS of papers and data points that, even if you disregard large scale evolution, still disprove Christian teachings.

2021-02-03 18:36:47 UTC  

millions of pieces of data that all either contradict one another or are not what they seem.

2021-02-03 18:37:51 UTC  

ok so a scientist can recreate it in a lab. there wasnt a scientist years ago fiddling with the DNA of ants or whatever. They "did it on their own"

2021-02-03 18:38:38 UTC  

alright so if they did it on their own like i said it would take longer than scientists say how old the earth is

2021-02-03 18:40:13 UTC  

I still see the words "may suggest" which sounds like speculation

2021-02-03 18:41:08 UTC  

evolution is a theory exactly. It's not proven.

2021-02-03 18:42:25 UTC  

alright still a theory is not the end result. Scientists still can't provide us with an end result.

2021-02-03 18:43:13 UTC  

no but they can't confirm it

2021-02-03 18:44:20 UTC  

maybe not but it does mean that it isn't fact

2021-02-03 18:46:47 UTC  

ok well you still won't admit to it being a fact. You are saying basically

2021-02-03 18:48:15 UTC  

i guess that's your opinion. I personally rely on the Bible as an eye witness testimony to creation and a young earth. We just have different opinions

2021-02-03 18:49:01 UTC  

This isn't opinion

2021-02-03 18:49:04 UTC  

This is willful ignorance

2021-02-03 18:49:16 UTC  

:)

2021-02-03 18:49:44 UTC  

so does mine i've provided it for you.

2021-02-03 18:50:31 UTC  

God is my eye witness but yet again, you won't take that as an arguement because you don't believe in God

2021-02-03 18:51:55 UTC  

Look up "The Case For Christ." It's about a man who went out of his way to disprove God, and he couldn't do it. He wrote about everything, and it was later adapted into a film

2021-02-03 18:52:13 UTC  

I love that book

2021-02-03 18:53:11 UTC  

The thing is, the burden of proof falls on people who believe in a certain religion

2021-02-03 18:53:55 UTC  

You should read the case for Christ and the Case for a Creator it's good

2021-02-03 18:54:06 UTC  

just so you understand why we believe what we believe

2021-02-03 18:54:14 UTC  

explain it then
