Prove that statement. Krimsa said: The key tenets of flood geology are refuted by scientific analysis and do not have any standing in the scientific community. I guess its another one of those "well known facts" like Hitler was not a Catholic.  Prove what statement? That your claim that the "scientific community" has facts that the Biblical Flood did not occur? Of course they don't. There's no empitrical evidence to demonstrate this "fact" - as you claim. My proof is in the fact that there is no proof to substanciate what the "scientific community" to which you refer claims (by your assertion). In addition to this - there is a Scientific Community of Creationist which has laboratories and offices in countries all around the world. But - we all know that if someone is a believer - they can't be a Credible Scientist according to your world view. That is a cop out plain and simple. You stated that my assertion was a fallacy. I made a point of quoting myself to demonstrate the exact sentence that you were claiming was fallacious. So, what’s the hold up here? Yes. I make this claim that you cannot support your assertion without demonstrating that the scientific community to which you refer shares the same world view, and by comparison - you will find as many scientists who disagree with your statement than you do who agree. Therefore - this "Community" to which you give such high reguard - is split along "Party lines" as it relates to world view. Is this clear? I have already stated it as fact. You chose to quote me and claim that it is a fallacious statment. That burden is now on you to substantiate. Obviously - it's unclear to you. |

Okay we have all seen this copied and pasted list oh like at least 20 times posted on forum. First name on the list I did a search for and guess what site he is located on?
http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/ee/what-is-science These guys are ALL creationist "scientists”. When I was referring to the scientific community I meant actual accredited scientists in their prospective fields or areas of discipline. That was the “scientific community” I was referring to. My statement still stands as valid. These people do not impress me. I myself am a bachelor of the science degree holder from a 4 year university. |

Taken from same website
‘Biologists would dearly like to know how modern apes, modern humans and the various ancestral hominids have evolved from a common ancestor. Unfortunately, the fossil record is somewhat incomplete as far as the hominids are concerned, and it is all but blank for the apes. The best we can hope for is that more fossils will be found over the next few years which will fill the present gaps in the evidence.’ The author goes on to say: ‘David Pilbeam [a well-known expert in human evolution] comments wryly, “If you brought in a smart scientist from another discipline and showed him the meagre evidence we’ve got he’d surely say, ‘forget it: there isn’t enough to go on’.”  Oh and it gets worse. Most creationists consider Neanderthals, Cro-Magnon, and some other fossil groups as representatives of extinct people groups, not evolutionary dead ends. Interpretation of fossils from an evolutionary perspective is not compatible with the teachings of the Bible. The fact that chimpanzees and humans have similar DNA does not make them evolutionary relatives. Humans did not evolve in a series of random accidents from an apelike ancestor—they were created in the image of God. The Bible makes a clear distinction between man and the animals. Man is given the ability to fellowship with God and given dominion over the animals. Evolutionary ideas about the rise of man from apes has fueled racist attitudes and set the stage for such atrocities as the Holocaust. Humans were specially created by God and are not simply highly evolved primates. This is the biggest load of crap I have ever read. They just twist and turn. Okay let’s take a closer look. A. What does it mean that humans share 96% of their DNA with chimpanzee? This article does not give any explanation whatsoever. They just insist that it’s a coincidence (I guess.) B. Man is given the ability to fellowship with God and given dominion over the animals. It’s this attitude that has allowed fundamentalist Christians to destroy the earth and its animal kingdom simply because you want to believe you are separate and superior from it. Well how is that working out for you in light of the current day ecological crisis? C. Evolutionary ideas about the rise of man from apes has fueled racist attitudes and set the stage for such atrocities as the Holocaust. Of course this one is the biggest lie I have ever heard espoused on one of these ridiculous websites. For one thing, the holocaust was fueled by Adolph Hitler, who was a practicing Catholic and secondly the bible condones slavery. Exodus 21 God's rules for buying slaves and splitting up their families. You can buy one, but you must set him free on the seventh year. If you have "given" him a wife and she bears children, then you get to keep the wife and kids. If he refuses to leave his family when his seven years are up, then bore a hole though his ear and keep him forever. (That sounds fair!)  21:2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. 21:3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him. 21:4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself. 21:5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: "Take an awl and thrust it through his ear." 21:6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever. |

Well then show those statements to be fallacious if you don’t mind. I am not familiar with this guy and you seem to be. I am at the mercy of what is stated here which would appear to be an accurate account of the debate. Bushido posted a youtube playlist in one of his threads(it is in his evolution thread over in the Science section) where Hovind's "theories" are completely discredited, using nothing more than basic scientific fact. Here is that playlist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BS5vid4GkEY&feature=PlayList&p=AC3481305829426D&index=0&playnext=1 |

Well according to you, God can not be tempted? Alright if you fail to see the contradiction there, I will move on. I keep notes as you are well aware.. Did Jesus baptize anyone? YES John 3:22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized. NO John 4:2 Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples. Krimsa John 4:2 States that Jesus baptized his disciples, it does not state that he did not perform any baptisms. You have taken this scripture out of context. |

OK everybody!
We all think what we think. We all believe what we believe. And we're all desperately arguing to make our point, according to our different beliefs. But this whole debate, exchange, conversation, etc., is headed exactly the same way all others have before it: NOWHERE!!! Now, let's take a break and consider the following. The United States of America, as defined by its Constitution, its First Amendment, and its 'Establishment Clause', is a religious neutral country: freedom 'OF' religion (free to practice ANY religion YOU choose), and freedom 'FROM' religion (free to reject the dogma and beliefs of any or all religions). Also, the 'establishment clause' prohibits the State from 'establishing' a national religion, and prohibits the State from showing PREFERENCE towards any specific religion (and yes that includes any version of the christian blend). That gives us the CONSTITUTIONAL waters in which the country swims. That constitutional reality is the wall against which the 'word for word bible believers' fundamentalists keep hitting their head. You know all those State Court, as well as Supreme Court verdicts falling on the side of 'religious neutral' (as per the US Constitution), as opposed to showing a preference for the fundamentalists point of view (Anti-Constitutional)!!! That's what I mean by Constitutional reality. And even if one claims bible law over Constitutional law, while you're on this earth, and living in the US, Constitutional law is the only one that will throw in prison if you don't repspect it. Now, let's throw a hypothetical dimension consistent with the 'religious-neutral' Constitutional reality of the US. Let's just imagine for a moment, and I mean imagine, that all the fundamentalists in the US, from the very founding of the country were not fundamentalist of the BIBLE kind, but of the QUR'AN flavor. Do you realize we as a nation wouldn't have any silly discussions about ... the age of the universe as offered by science??? ... We wouldn't be having these hours and hours of 'fun', discussing the size of the ARC the guy had to build, or whether or not there should have been at least a couple of dinosaurs in it??? ... NO more doubt about carbon dating, or big bang, or EVOLUTION?!?!?!? Can you imagine??? A forum full of threads actually discussing science for science sake, philosophy for philosophy sake, politics and world affairs for politics and world affairs sake?!?!?! How could such a world might have been possible?!?!? Simply because the QUR'RAN, much like most other sacred books 'authors-gods' besides the bible, did not push the arrogance of their power trip (they all have a power trip) into fields they knew nothing about (like 'big number' mathematics). Picture this, 3 000 or so years ago, litteracy is power. Knowing how to read and write makes you nearly ... a god!!! There exists no trace, or documents of timeline of any kind. It is not unreasonnable to assume that whomever wrote the bible stuff figured that 3 000 or so years ago, from 0 years, was a huge number!!! Right!!! That's the 'god-like' scriptors' arrogance I'm referring to. The QUR'RAN folks showed mor wisdom on that front. They left it open ended! So imagine, '...Is EVOLUTION compatible with the Qur'an???' Eventhough the question would never be raised, the answer, for the sake of our make believe exercise would be an overwhelming: '... EVOLUTION IS FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE QUR'AN...' Now don't get me wrong, this was stricty hypothetical. I wouldn't think for one second of trading one flavor of fundamentalism for another (there might be a few fundamentalists of the QUR'AN persuasion too?). The purpose of this interlude was to suggest what might be possible for this religious-neutral Constitutional Nation, if it were actually 'free' of the TYRANNY from the 'free to practice', but 'not free to impose', 'tiny-fundamentalist-minority'. |

None of your 'friends' were invited to testify from looking at the 72 Nobels. What's your gameplan here friend??? Hara-Kiri?!?!? |

And that first "scientist." I took his name and plugged it in and it brought up that horrendous website. Give me a break.
 And the second guy on the list is a psychologist? WTF? What contributing interest does he have in Evolution? Or he just wants to stick his name on a list? This list is tiny compared to the scientists who support evolution, the NCSE produced a list of scientists who supported evolution with over 800 names, and they are all called Steve (there are only 4 Steves on your list): http://www.ncseweb.org/resources/article... b) Project Steve is a joke inteded to poke fun at such lists. Science is not decided by a vote count, bullsh*t is bullsh*t no matter how many people believe it. c) You have to look at the credentials of the scientists not just their names. Where are their PhDs from (how many went to Bible Universities which don't give a good education - e.g. Liberty University)? How many peer reviewed papers have they published? What is their reputation in the academic community? d) All the scientists on your list who lived before Darwin can be discounted, as there was no other theory around at the time. e) A linguistics expert or an electrical engineer (there are many with similar positions on your list) are only marginally more qualified to discuss evolution than the average person on the street, how many on the list are involved in Life Sciences? Edit: I understand that you want to show that some creationists are intelligent. But even supposedly intelligent people can hold stupid beliefs, and when 50% of americans believe the creation story (thats 150 million) the laws of statistics state that some will be scientists (does it not worry you that in the scientific community your viewpoint is very very severely under represented, 50% of americans vs. approx. 0.1% scientists?). |

Okay we have all seen this copied and pasted list oh like at least 20 times posted on forum. First name on the list I did a search for and guess what site he is located on? http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/ee/what-is-science These guys are ALL creationist "scientists”. When I was referring to the scientific community I meant actual accredited scientists in their prospective fields or areas of discipline. That was the “scientific community” I was referring to. My statement still stands as valid. These people do not impress me. I myself am a bachelor of the science degree holder from a 4 year university. Excuse me - but would you like to determine which one of these scientists are not "accredited" and what your criteria for being accredited is? Each one of these people are a part of the "Scientific Community" and I'm S-O-O-O-O looking forward to you trying to get out of this one. Do you think that you are not biased based on your World View? I told you before - you need to sue that college for fraud, because they didn't teach you how to learn about anything. |

Hey Eljay, are you serious??? Are you suggesting you would be willing to match the scientific credibility of your list of anonymous names here, with the 72 Nobels, whom were invited to testify in front of the Supreme Court (those 'robes' you referred to earlier), and whose authority helped the court reach verdicts against your anonymous ones??? None of your 'friends' were invited to testify from looking at the 72 Nobels. What's your gameplan here friend??? Hara-Kiri?!?!? Voile; It's a joy to hear from you again my friend. Hmmm... let's see. Nobel prize. That's the SAG award of science. And you're proving my point - the scientific community is split along world view as to the validity of whether or not science can disprove the flood. One's determination of who is winning the argument is dependent solely on one's world view. As I said - name me one member of the scientific community who feels the biblical flood did not happen because science proves it - I will name a member of that community who will refute it. That's all I'm saying. Krimsa's claim is the the bibleical flood has been proven not to have occured, and that, and I quote ...do not have any standing in the scientific community The list is there to demonstrate to her that these members of the scientific community - though not household names - worthy qualified members none-the-less, prove her statement wrong. It's what she asked to do - so I did. Her response is that they're christains, and therefore not considered part of the scientific community. And by the way - it's a partial list of fairly current scientists. I didn't bother to list the numerous scientists who over the past two centuries, believed in Genesis as more than a fairytale, who are responsible for some of the greatest discoveries in science that we have - as well as being the Professors who have educated the scientist today. So what it boils down to - is your right - the argument is pontless, as it is making assertions that can't be supported - like the one by Krimsa in the beginning of this post. |

Man, it took me forever to read through this thing, very interesting though.
I've seen this debate for years now, argued from both sides, and even did a fair amount of research back in the day. This is just my personal opinion, but I've concluded that evolution ... is a theory. Much like electricity, relativity, gravity and any other natural observable process that has undergone rigorous scientific testing and experimentation (with the math to support it). The bible, does not need to be proved. The concept of the bible is such that trying to prove or disprove it, essentially becomes a moot point. In the end it's something you take it on faith, and that's something everyone can agree on, even the bible. (Of course, one thing I've always wondered was: Assume Adam and Eve were the first people on earth. They had children. Now we all know the fate of one child, but concerning Cain... who did he marry? or a better question I guess would be: who did he have children with, because he obviously did have children?) Now is it possible that what the bible says is true? Sure. Can anyone really prove or disprove it? No, those events happened thousands of years ago, even archeological evidence would be sketchy at best. Here's a hypothetical situation to illustrate why you can't claim the bible fact or fiction either way: lets assume that it's the year 4009... that's 2000 years into the future, and some future human digs up a Blockbuster. It's a huge find for those future humans because it's one of the only few caches of such rich information about the early 21st century. Now lets say these humans find the show "The Office". Now, would it be so difficult to assume that those humans may actually think characters from the show are real? Or lets say they also find a real documentary about people working in offices. How can they draw any conclusions as to what is real and what is not? Maybe a fan website about "The Office" survived, and this website treats characters from The Office as real, the wouldn't it be evidence that "The Office" is real? Or maybe the website explicitly expresses "The Office" as a fictional show, then would those that believe "The Office" to be real just say that a website is not credible enough evidence? It's impossible for those future humans to answer all those questions, in the same way it's impossible for us to answer all the questions about a book written over the course of thousands of years. I say, it's quite pointless to argue the validity of the bible because no one side can come to any definitive conclusions about whether it's real or not. I mean, honestly, it was written before some countries even existed, transcribed into many many different translations and oh btw it's not even complete (Holy Roman Empire, when they standardized the bible to the books we see today, left out some of the books to preserve "continuity" or something to that effect. So those who don't see any glaring contradictions in the bible, it's because it was done intentionally). Evolution on the other hand... if you want to argue that it's possible that it may be wrong, sure go ahead, but then you're in the 8th dimension (in that plane where the all possible universes or realities meet). Scientifically, it's pretty much a solid theory, hasn't been disproved yet. |

It is contingent on WORLD VIEW. I personally do not consider any of those Christian "scientists" legitimate UNTIL I can research each and every one of their backgrounds. My comment that the scientific community rejects the specifics of flood geology still stands as valid. You also failed to respond to my rebuttal post so here it is again. |
