@Ragman,
Everything in existance is designed by its relativeness to other things in existance. Difference is the cause of relative design. Relativeness in existance is nonlocal. Consciousness is nonlocality as relativeness.

@martinies,
Irrelevance and constant repetition don't add any clarity to your message.

@Ragman,
Put it in terms of taoism the ancient chinese philosophy. Tao the unmoving thing is the flux or relativeness in the yin and yan changing thing

@martinies,
Herein lies your problem. Evolution is not and should not be a philosophical issue. Evolution occurs regardless of your religion or personal philosophy. To make it part of a philosophical debate is to engage in obfuscation.

BTW, the phrase is 'yin and yang'.

Ragman is trolling. Something the hot shots here constantly complain about. You should ignore him. Just saying.

@coldjoint,
I'm not trolling. Do you understand what trolling means? One cannot be accused of trolling when stating a fact.

A troll would be, as an example, if I called you an anti-intellectual, or Luddite, or a dullard.

My comment was directed to Martinis. Why would you offer advice to Queball or anyone else, for that matter?

Of course, feel free to ignore me...but try harder to make sense and use logic.

@Quehoniaomath,
Of course macro exists. Evolution is evolution- Try telling the next ausrralopithecine you meet walking down the street that macro doesn't exist and she'll laugh herself silly at your naivete. Then she'll probably kill you.

Let's see, here it means disagreeing with liberals and progressives.

@Ragman,
Ragman the question asked is why do people deny evolution and reason they do in the main deny evolution is because it threatens there belief in god.. so how can god and evolution both be true as I believe they are. Taoism which is in my view correctly describes how the universe is made by way of nonlocal relative design. Tao being nonlocal and the yin and yang being locality in flux. The flux being tao the designer. So basical things design them selves by relativity or deference. Difference being the nonlocal tao.

@martinies,
Difference being the tenth dimension or nonlocality to the other dimensions. The difference is the creator.
