http:...You sound like me when I was a creationist:<br /><br />http://www.evolutionplanet.com/2009/07/how-truth-of-fossil-record-lead-me-away.html<br /><br />I do not agree with your definition of scientific theory, nor do I agree no one has witnessed evolution.<br /><br />But let's cut to the chase: If I could give you evidence of evolution, would you change your mind about it? Would you believe it was a sound theory? If not, then maybe you should reconsider why it is you think it's not true.<br /><br />I find most creationist use scientific-sounding arguments but when I rebut their science they don't change their views--they just move on to some other argument. So I'm really not much interested in arguing with you unless you are willing to change your mind about evolution.<br /><br />Let's start there: what would it take (in terms of evidence) for you to change your mind about evolution?David Boardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06200260948279778582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-448980739770003398.post-33813888959820941912010-03-05T06:19:04.456-09:002010-03-05T06:19:04.456-09:00I was noticing your page, and it seems that you ar...I was noticing your page, and it seems that you are a Darwinian evolutionist. I was just wondering. Let’s start with the term the “theory of evolution.” A scientific theory is In the sciences generally, a scientific theory (the same as an empirical theory) comprises a collection of concepts, including abstractions of observable phenomena expressed as quantifiable properties, together with rules (called scientific laws) that express relationships between observations of such concepts. A scientific theory is constructed to conform to available empirical data about such observations, and is put forth as a principle or body of principles for explaining a class of phenomena.4 Notice I emphasized observable phenomena, because for something to be a scientific theory there has to be observable proof that verifies the scientific theory itself. There has to be physical evidence of evolution occurring (remember from now on when I mention evolution I am talking about macro-evolution. The belief that our ancient ancestor was pond scum). So what am I saying, for something to be a scientific theory there has to be evidence that you can look at of the theory occurring. Here is where the first problem lies no one has ever witnessed the occurrence of evolution. NO ONE! Also there is no proof that verifies evolution ever occurred, so to say in its most basic form that evolution is a theory, according to the definition of a scientific theory is wrong. So evolution is not even a theory because there is no observable evidence that it ever occurred. <br /><br />I would love to hear you regarding this issue, also check out my blog at. http://designedbymeansofintelligence.blogspot.com/<br />until we go to the ends of the earth...<br /><br />Acts 1:8 <br /><br />商宣中<br /><br />Chris Sanford<br />louisvchr@aol.comabandonedtoJesus24-7https://www.blogger.com/profile/08709228751351462650noreply@blogger.com
