It has everything to do with the bible. In the Christian mind if evolution can be discredited then some how that validates Christianty.
Whether we evolved by random chance from non life is what we have been discussing. Now you are changing the subject. But, the subject is the lack of proof that life evolved from non life. But to answer your question... many if not most Christians have no problem with evolutions. A small fundmentalist sect insists they think for some reason they know the earth if 5000 or 6000 years old. Which is odd since they are supposed to follow the bible and the bible does not say that. So for them evolution over millions of years is a problem. But it is not for most. Besides if we have learned anything from science its that time is relative.
Jem it's not changing the subject, it is a god argument. As in most of these discussions, the break down is we don't know how life or the universe began therefore The only answer is God or in the Christians case Jesus/God did it. The argument has nothing to do with science it's about god.
I appreciate you making my point for me yet again, but it really isn't necessary. It is of course a self-defeating exercise to constantly link to posts in which you've made nothing resembling a logical or reasonable response, then calling everything stupid because you can't debate, argue or reply sensibly to the subject matter. Sounds just like another creationist's brain fart.
If the argument has nothing to do with science then Darwin had nothing to do with science. We are simply asking the question... did life evolve from non life here on earth. Science's answer is varied... Some scientists say no way. Some say directed evolution Some say they have no proof yet but they intend to show is it was a natural process. What we do know, is that no person has show it how it happened, yet. Why you wish to interject religion in that discuss is beyond me. The reason we had this discussion is that I keep pointing out to emotional atheists like Stu, that when he asserts there is plenty of science showing life evolved from non life... he is an atheist crackpot.... similar to the religious crackpots he despises.
Making your point by posting four of your quotes w/links that show you're as STUpid as a bag of rocks? You're the one who's constantly defeating himself as I showed by quoting some of your self-contradictory nonsense. Everything you post is a brain fart; I can always count on you for comic relief
I haven't read much of this thread so I'll give you that it's not a god issue. If life didn't start from non life here on earth are you thinking it was started by life getting here from an alien source?
