You throw off the "look around" comment easily. Did you give thought to that, or was that just a hysterical comment without form?
I have dealt with this silly argument on many occasions. My comment was well thought out.
Quote:If you look around, you will see that very form of life on earth is highly specialized and perfectly adapted to its environment and to its place in life and for the purpose for which it was created.
The cactus in the desert, the eagle in the air, the tiger in the jungle, the whale in the sea, all function perfectly where they are and where God provided that they be. Our orderly, well-planned world, having WATER (practically unknown in the rest of the universe)...
Gotta stop this rant for a second here.
Just how the hell do you know how plentiful water is in the rest of the universe???????????????
Quote:... a well-balanced atmosphere, almost 100 necessary and useful elements, and climactic conditions permitting life on earth, gives us abundant evidence that our world is unique in the universe
Gotta stop this rant again.
How the hell do you know that our world is unique in the universe????
In fact...how the hell do you know that our universe is unique?
Good grief...are you on drugs today?
Quote:... and was designed by an all-wise and all-powerful architect for human and animal habitation.
Or...simply has always existed and happened to end up where we are right now.
I certainly don't know which it is....and I suspect you don't either.
So why are you pretending that your guess....silly as it is....is the only possible answer to all this?
Quote:The innumerable and highly complex specialized organs, such as the eye and the ear, the sonar system of bats, the beak of the woodpecker, the tongue of a toad, the trunk of an elephant, the spinerettes of the spider, and mother's breast, are of such a nature that to be useful and functional they had to come into being at once, and could not have developed gradually through chance mutations, random changes," or natural selection. God created everything in it's place.
How the hell can you possibly know what can and cannot develop through chance mutations?????
Quote:The medical properties of plants, the healing power of minerals and the food sources from the land and sea are all provided by God.
Or just happen to be here. I don't know which...and I suspect you don't either. Why are you asserting it as fact???
Quote:Yes, Frank....look around. Figure out exactly what the odds of this happening by chance would be. Include everything that interacts with each other and the perfect way that they work.
Open up a deck of cards...and shuffle it thoroughly.
Figure out the odds that the exact order you find the cards in...would happen by chance.
Then...open your mind and realize that it happened by chance.
You are working a logical and mathematical fallacy.
If the universe always existed...and always had movement...it had to end up somewhere. It is possible "here" is where it ended up...all by chance.
To calculate the odds would make as much sense as calculating the odds of the random deck I just mentioned.
Try to use your brain.
Quote:
Yes, Frank as surely as these things are before us....there is a God,
Only in the eyes of a poor deluded soul who also can see the pathetic barbaric god of the Bible as a humanity loving god.
What a terrible, terrible waste of a mind!
