    Did I mention God at all? No. I mentioned only mathematical probablity on evolution only. There is a difference between our physical dimension and a metaphysical dimension.

    Faith and belief are what you are using if you chose to believe in evolution. It's really very simple. If you chose to believe in evolution, I have no problem with that, but understand you are taking it on faith alone, just like those that believe in God. I see people on here bash on people for believing with faith in a god based on a book (Bible, Torah, Quran, etc.), but they believe in evolution based solely on faith in a book written by man (Darwin) who didn't even know what DNA was.



    C22H19N3O4, I gave a book to read. Did you pick it up? Can you read? Get some education on DNA strands, and then come back and try to put up an arguement that evolution can explain the development of DNA. Scientists and professors admit that they cannot explain it with evolution. You are smarter then them? I seriously doubt it.

    Maybe because DNA wasn't discovered yet haha.
    Natural selection is pretty damn proven lolol

    Bingo. You are correct. 1953

    Natural selection is not proven - that's why they call it a theory. Otherwise, it would be a scientific law.

    Like I said, people bash on others for believing what is written in a book, then base their beliefs on what is written in a different book. This is true from both sides. In the end, it just comes down to what you believe. My only suggestion is that you can defend and understand your own beliefs. Evolution says it should be proven by science, but it is mathematically improbable. Religion says you have to take it on faith, not science.

    READ

    BTW, you may want to look into his "new" defintion of IC. I'm sure you already know that by heart. I have no desire to purchase a book published 10 years ago and written by a Roman Catholic "scientist" that has been ridiculed just as long. I've read excerpts over the past 4 years and still believe it's garbage.

    Is that truly all you have? You remind me of third grader that's just learned something new at school and is so eager to share. After a long disappointing day you crawl into bed with tears running down your face realizing that no one really gives a shit.

    No one is arguing that DNA is not complex, but it is NOT intelligent, efficient, or elegant. You're hanging onto an evolutionary X, which science has no evidence for YET, and seem to think that you can debunk evolution. You've taken mathematically improbable and changed it to mathematically impossible. I'm sure you know the difference.
    Link me to some experiments that ID'ers have performed. I'm eager to the read the data.

    ID'ers have that goddidit syndrome. If you can't observe it then goddidit. Well, in your case it would be someone OR something did it. It could be a gummi bear or Adam Sandler. Oddly enough you don't take stock in randomness yet you accept the "fact" that some ID'er magically appeared to create this biosphere and the universe for it to survive.

    You're an ID'er that's mildy retarded or uneducated. I'm going to say a bit of both. It's impossible to have a science related discussion with someone that has never taken basic bio/chem/micro/physics classes. Reading creationist websites does not mean you're educated in the sciences. You take bits and pieces of creationist/ID propoganda and think that you've stumbled upon something earth-shattering. Provide some ID'er info that hasn't been beaten to death. Again, if you want to flex your science muscle sign-up at http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/ or http://www.ethicalatheist.com/forum/


    As requested previously, provide the calculations to determine the probability that an ID'er planned our world. You are into mathematical models?
