the fact that you believe so strongly in evolution (without any real backings or even a conclusion that u came up ur self) makes you dis-credible  as the same religious fanatics u talk shit about.


not once have you made a deep response or a deep statement. u basically repeat what other atheist say; the same thing religious fanatics do when they repeat pastors and priests. and you put no thought into it at all. your not cool because you dont believe in a religion if thats the trend in Amsterdam these days.


and lastly this does not belong here. if ur not going to take this place seriously, than you should be banned from this section. im tired of these worthless posts/threads that u make, obviously to get your post count up.

Well I guess I got into something else here, but I will say that the more I learn about evolution, the more I am led to believe that there is something that created this.  Things are almost too complex to insist that it "just happened".  Now I don't think whatever created everything is some church's idea of God, but I think there is someone/thing that is responsible.

Evolution is fact.  Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection is the theory.

EVEN THE POPE AGREES WITH EVOLUTION. I mean why is it that these so called "Christians" want to put science against religion. As a man of faith, I feel that maybe God's plan was evolution. You can't prove that God created the world as is, because no one was there. When the world was created, who knows, maybe he just said, here goes some water, some cells, now lets see what we get. I mean was anyone there to prove anything, did anyone write anything down?

Well anyways, here goes Pope John Paul II talking about evolution. As you can read, he lets researcher do what they do best, research to get facts, and he did what his suppose to do as a religious leader, embrace it for your religion and allow your followers to accept fact.

--- Quote ---Taking into account the state of scientific research at the time as well as of the requirements of theology, the encyclical Humani Generis considered the doctrine of "evolutionism" a serious hypothesis, worthy of investigation and in-depth study equal to that of the opposing hypothesis. Pius XII added two methodological conditions: that this opinion should not be adopted as though it were a certain, proven doctrine and as though one could totally prescind from revelation with regard to the questions it raises. He also spelled out the condition on which this opinion would be compatible with the Christian faith, a point to which I will return. Today, almost half a century after the publication of the encyclical, new knowledge has led to the recognition of the theory of evolution as more than a hypothesis. [Aujourdhui, près dun demi-siècle après la parution de l'encyclique, de nouvelles connaissances conduisent à reconnaitre dans la théorie de l'évolution plus qu'une hypothèse.] It is indeed remarkable that this theory has been progressively accepted by researchers, following a series of discoveries in various fields of knowledge. The convergence, neither sought nor fabricated, of the results of work that was conducted independently is in itself a significant argument in favor of this theory.

What is the significance of such a theory? To address this question is to enter the field of epistemology. A theory is a metascientific elaboration, distinct from the results of observation but consistent with them. By means of it a series of independent data and facts can be related and interpreted in a unified explanation. A theory's validity depends on whether or not it can be verified; it is constantly tested against the facts; wherever it can no longer explain the latter, it shows its limitations and unsuitability. It must then be rethought.

Furthermore, while the formulation of a theory like that of evolution complies with the need for consistency with the observed data, it borrows certain notions from natural philosophy.
