You ought to be ashamed of yourself Irish,you know only to well that neither relativity nor quantum machanics are held as faiths,how to keep a Christian honest?
Irish,what's a pure evolutionist as opposed to one that's impure,and please explain time verses reducibility.Your not being slick for Christ are you--------notty notty! :eek:
Drop that cross once more and your out of this parade!
I would be ashamed,
if I had ever said Relativity or Quantum Mechanics were faiths. Luckily for me, I never did or I might have been cast into Schrodinger's box.
What I said was, Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, were just to name a few,
cannons of the
scientist's faith. Now, if you ever jumped into the predictions of either, Relativity or Quantum Mechanics and agree with the greatest minds of the 20th Century, it still takes a great leap of faith to accept the weirdness. It is most definitely a leap of faith, because not only do they defy the senses, but they are unobservable, greatly untestable, and wholly (pardon the pun) unprovable.
To top this all off, much of the predictions come from "Mind Experiments", which were series of letters, between these greatest minds, with hypothetical questions and answers.
Let me say, that they boggle the mind, but I accept the predictions to a large extent, myself. They in fact, make the concept of "God" seem very sensible; if a particle can supernaturally alter reality even retroactively, why can't a supernatural being?
On Evolution, a pure evolutionist (admittedly my term) believes life has evolved into more complex forms, over time, and at predictable rates with the exception of mutations which sometimes turns the clock up.
However, that is problematic because even mutation rates in a steady evolutionary matrix, can be predicted, and the whole baseline lacks reducibility, within the constraint of time since the formation of an environment conducive to life on Earth. Even throwing out an organism as complex as a human being from the equation doesn't help. A simple amino acid isn't reducible either.
The impure Evolutionist is, like myself, someone who believes that evolution happens, but something or Someone, has had a hand in it.
There are Atheist Scientists who also has a problem with reducibility, its not just a Christian shell game.
That does it!! Watch your ass, when I'm riding my Unicorn.
