Re: A Question from a Christian
Seabee said: I think I am most bewildered by the assertion that anything is not worth proving or disproving. The more I think about this, the more positive I am that this is the most basic and elemental function in our lives. What's real, and what's not? What's valid, and what's not? We're talking a...

Re: A Question from a Christian
Oh, but science is so advanced now, we know what is going on…really? Scientists used to think that the earth was flat (Because the bible told them so), scientists used to think that the sun rotated around the earth(Because the bible told them so), scientists used to think that drilling into a human...

Re: A Question from a Christian
I said: There are really no records of history that go beyond Biblical times, and I kept coming back to that fact. If we have been around for Millions (perhaps Billions) of years, where is the documentation, stone or otherwise? Why is it that over the last 2000 years our civilization has become so ...

Re: A Question from a Christian
I was an atheist for a few years, and looked at all the theories, facts, and theories (I repeated the word twice, don't think it was by accident) and the thing I found was that no one has a clue where we really came from. Yes, Darwin has great ideas, and those ideas have been perpetuated throughout...

Re: A Question from a Christian
Scientists have a tendency to be curious about the world we live in.That is why we try to discover things. I beg to differ – Scientists are curious about the world we live in – true. After the Darwinian Theory came about, however, scientists began turning their back on any possibility that was not ...

Re: A Question from a Christian
My opening argument: The burden of proof is on the believer in something, not the skeptic. If I told you that a dragon lived in my garage, but he was invisible, passed through matter, could float, and couldn't be detected by any instruments known to science, you would likely think I was mad (Haha- ...

Re: A Question from a Christian
Fueled… First of all, I didn’t say “where is the history that dates pre-2000 years ago,” so you answering me that… “I have to mention several points. We do have plenty of recorded history going well past the last 2000 years, “ makes no sense what-so-ever. My question was…again… There are really no r...

A Question from a Christian
The amazing thing to me, a Christian, is that anyone - Christian or non - would dedicate this much time to proving or disproving anything at all. What is leading you to do such? Just your "sense of humor (or humour, as the British – who, with such an irritating irreverence to real English conti...
