I asked you for the location of "Heaven"...
...and you said that you didn't know...
That I can't provide "celestial coordinates" for Heaven is irrelevant. I don't know the "celestial coordinates" for the big bang either, but I trust that it happened. Do you want to maintain that my inability to provide "celestial coordinates" for the location of the big bang means that it didn't happen?
Besides, you don't really want to go there so you don't need to worry about that, do you?
I asked you to provide a brief overview of how this "YHWH" designed and produced DNA...
...and you said that you didn't know...
Again, so? I don't know how (or who) designed the systems of Chinese characters, Egyptian hieroglyphics, the Phoenician alphabet that is ancestral to the Hebrew, Greek, English, and various other alphabets either. But I believe someone did.
If you want, you can pretend to believe that nature developed these spontaneously by magic, like you think happened with DNA's genetic code. And do you think that our inability to explain who designed Chinese characters etc and how they did it means that no one did?
I asked for an example of design in DNA. I asked, for example, if there is a sequence of nucleotides that translate to "Designed by YHWH"?
...and you said, "Not that I know of"...
And again, so what. As I just pointed out, the same is generally true of all encoding systems I know of.
Now in the case of Morse code, we know from historical sources some guys named Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail developed it, but there's nothing in the code itself or in any original use of Morse's code that would tell you that.
You claimed that atheists and liberals burdened evolution with metaphysics. I asked for a single link to a single article from a scientist in a peer-reviewed journal which conflated evolution with atheism, liberalism, and metaphysics...
...and you were not able to provide a single link or reference to an article. You did, however, provide a list of authors, all of which you presumably read, so I'm still puzzled why you couldn't quote or link any of their scientific research that conflates liberalism, atheism, metaphysics and evolution...
I don't recall you asking for peer-reviewed journal articles, perhaps I responded to an early version of your post. At any rate, the "peer-reviewed journal" is a bogus restriction. Such articles don't normally concern themselves with metaphysical things. But the folks I listed, and many others have pushed atheistic metaphysics in books, magazine articles, internet postings, etc - that they've not done so in peer-reviewed journal articles is irrelevant.
BTW, remember that YOU'VE been pushing atheism here on the evolution thread yourself.
Here's a request for YOU. Do you or do you not believe that science negates belief in God?
-This is why I admire you you so much Brumar. You say that science requires faith, and then you show how much smarter you are than all those biologists, paleontologists, geologists, physicists, zoologists, etc. by refuting centuries of what they laughingly refer to as "scientific research"
See, there YOU are saying that scientific research is contrary to belief in God as creator and designer. You ought to know you can't support that assertion. Its strictly a matter of faith.
If I'm wrong about you being able to support that assertion, you will be able to produce at least one peer-reviewed paper from a scientific journal disproving God as creator and designer of the universe and life.
I will patiently await your citation of scientific papers that prove there is no creator/designer. |
