Natural Science 301 Guidelines
This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.
As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

So I would hope you wouldn't be more disposed to believe the other stuff, but rather less disposed to dismiss it out of hand. You could end up like the early geologists, who went out to gather evidence of Noah's Flood. And at first they found quite a bit of evidence that large quantities of water had shoved things around. Eventually, enough such evidence was compiled to learn about ice ages.

Jews and Muslims are also waiting for something. While there is always personal development, the church itself is static or separate from progress being made elsewhere because the revelation of God, in their terms, has ended.

Originally posted by pancreasman View PostI have no concrete evidence of any Gods at all. This doesn't mean they don't exist. But if someone makes particular claims of a God acting in the physical universe in a way that ought to 'leave a mark' and no signs of that mark exist, it is reasonable to conclude that their claim is most likely wrong.
I (speaking only for myself and my interpretation of Scripture, and NOT speaking for any other Christian), cannot think of any reason you should believe what it says in The BibleTo say that crony capitalism is not true/free market capitalism, is like saying a grand slam is not true baseball, or like saying scoring a touchdown is not true American football ...Stefan Mykhaylo D

You're constantly asking others how they would react if your religion was proven correct, but you always evade similar questions asked of you.
