From the first paragraph of your link: Evolution is a "theory" in the scientific sense of the term "theory" Once again stewie, NO I DON'T. I have no problem with the LAWS of physics.It's the unproven theories I'm questioning. I don't see anything in your link that specifically says an entire universe is allowed to magically appear from nothing stewie.
That's strange, as you do see things that specifically aren't in the link. The link does not say evolution is "just a theory" ...does it ! That will be because scientific theory is not "just theory", and by saying "just a theory" you are trying to misuse the word, just as I suggested earlier.. Ahh right. So actually, you have no problem with the laws of physics that allow gravity and evolution and the laws of physics that allow a universe to come from nothing. Apparently you just have a problem with gravity and evolution, and a universe coming from nothing, because they are "just a theory" Perhaps you should be questioning what it is you are actually questioning.
"Evolution is a "theory" in the scientific sense of the term "theory" IS in the link YOU provided. (then claimed you didn't) No it doesn't, it says evolution IS a theory in the scientific sense. You guys are (supposedly) all about science right? No I don't don't, but then LAWS and theories are generally two different things. Despite repeated requests you have yet to provide ANY law of physics that allows for a universe to spontaneously erupt from the vacuum of nothingness. I'm questioning fantastical unproven THEORIES and your claim of a LAW of physics you seem to be utterly unable to provide.
You didn't even know that scientists hypothesized dark matter and dark energy to account for 96% of the universe they can't really explain, so why continue your facade? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2952513#post2952513
It's known how much dark energy there is. The fatuous inference that scientists don't know everything so there must be a Creator, is tired and old. Get back to me if you ever get half a clue what it is you're mumbling about. Second thought, don't bother.
I claimed no such thing. At least retain some honesty. Exactly. So it is not "just a THEORY" .....which IS what you misleadingly stated. There's more to scientific theory than it being ..."just a THEORY". Again, why not read the link properly. It explains how and why that is so. So you ARE questioning the Laws of Physics. You said you weren't. You want to know WHAT Laws of Physics! Look it up! I am suggesting you at least understand what it is you are really questioning, then you won't be confusing what are the Laws of Physics, with what you would wrongly have gravity, evolution and a universe from nothing as ...... "just a THEORY". Thing is, the Laws of Physics do allow for all three. Gravity, evolution, a universe from nothing. You obviously think they don'tâ¦. ....but your ONLY argument for that has been a quite separate, disconnected, purposely or misguidedly wrong idea thatâ¦.. ....scientific theory... " is just a THEORY".
How long will you continue this with silly "defense"? The link YOU provided specifically stated Evolution IS a theory in the scientific sense. Why do you insist on adding the word "just" in there? Yet again stewie I have no issue with proven laws of physics. Only healthy skepticism and questions about some of the THEORIES. Translation: you have no such LAW that specifically states a universe can suddenly appear from nothing. Haven't we been down this road before? How long will you repeat this nonsense and refuse to post said law of physics? You seem to be the one confused stewie.
First, dark energy is only a hypothesis and you were clueless about it until I schooled you here: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2952513#post2952513 So don't pretend you know what you're talking about. Second, apparently you're too STUpid to even grasp my point... which is that no human knows enough about the universe to definitively state there's not a creator. Finally, BY YOUR OWN LOGIC, God is just as plausible as no God as I showed here: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2953564#post2953564 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2956316#post2956316
It's known how much dark energy there is, so it is not "only a hypothesis." any more than Evolution is "just a THEORY". I suggest you go and school yourself about that before trying to show off anymore with what you don't know. Irrational ramblings that you've made earlier in links you keep relying on are locked. So you do realize, they are going to remain as dumb as when you first made them.
I didn't add the word "just" in there. YOU did. Like I say, at least retain some honesty. Evolution is not "just a THEORY" . The link I posted explains how and why evolution is fact and scientific theory. Just like gravity is fact and scientific theory. To say ....."just a THEORY".....is being purposely misleading and/or dishonest in use of the word THEORY. Saying I added the word "just" is plain untrue . You said you do not question the laws of physics. Then presumably you would not question the laws of physics as they apply to gravity. Yet contradictorily, you question the laws of physics as they apply to a universe from nothing. Gravity being a fact and a scientific theory , and - a universe from nothing - being the subject of theoretical physics, is quite a separate matter from the Laws of Physics allowing for both of them, which they do. Thing is 'crummie, you don't seem to realize what question it is you are actually asking , or for that matter, realize what words YOU included in your own statement.
