When I ask for links, I ask for links to sites with a certain amount of credibility. One crackpot Creationist who’s been caught lying countless times doesn’t count. (Have a look here http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/abioprob/abioprob.html)
Religion is called pride? Pride in WHAT I may ask?Morningstar> “Hmm to me i dont see it as killing other people for their God becoz those killed had sinned too. ”
So if someone has ”sinned” in your virew, it’s OK to kill them?“God knew that if the ppl of Israel became involved with the Hittitesm Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites (weird names!) those people would lead the descendants of Israel to worship other Gods.”
What happened to ”God has given us free will”? So it’s okay to kill people to prevent them from deciding NOT to worship the Christian God???
O.k. can you answer my questions on the subject
1. How can particles combine with the brownian motion of water sloshing them about?
2. Somebody said that a comet hit the earth, starting life. How could simple life withstand a hundred kiloton explosion (ignore the mathematics, just think "big explosion)
3. The simplest life is a virus. I suspect that the idea is that the simplest lifeform was simpler still. A Virus can only live of other beings, e.g. a human, dog, hummingbird. How can such a basic life suceed where a virus has failed?
