viaro: Yes, indeed, I sometimes wonder whether Jesus also abolished the law calling for parents to kill their disobedient children. My view is that he did not. In fact, Jesus explicitly reinforced that law in the New Testament. |
Religion / Oh Dear, The Catholics! by huxley(m): 8:27pm On Oct 20, 2009 |
[size=18pt]Intelligence Squared debate: Catholics humiliated by Christopher Hitchens and Stephen Fry [/size] http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/andrewmcfbrown/100014133/intelligence-squared-debate-catholics-humiliated-by-christopher-hitchens-and-stephen-fry/ I have just witnessed a rout – tonight’s Intelligence Squared debate. It considered the motion “The Catholic Church is a force for good in the world”. Christopher Hitchens and Stephen Fry, opposing the motion, comprehensively trounced Archbishop Onaiyekan (of Abuja, Nigeria) and Ann Widdecombe, who spoke for it. The archbishop in particular was hopeless. The voting gives a good idea of how it went. Before the debate, for the motion: 678. Against: 1102. Don’t know: 346. This is how it changed after the debate. For: 268. Against: 1876. Don’t know: 34. In other words, after hearing the speakers, the number of people in the audience who opposed the motion increased by 774. My friend Simon, who’s a season ticket holder, said it was the most decisive swing against a motion that he could remember. The problem (from the Catholic point of view) was that the speakers arguing for the Church as a force for good were hopelessly outclassed by two hugely popular, professional performers. The archbishop had obviously decided that it would work best if he stuck to facts and figures and presented the Church as a sort of vast charitable or “social welfare” organisation. He emphasised how many Catholics there were in the world, and that even included “heads of state”, he said, as if that was a clincher. But he said virtually nothing of a religious or spiritual nature as far as I could tell, and non-Catholics would have been none the wiser about what you might call the transcendent aspects of the Church. Then later when challenged he became painfully hesitant. In the end he mumbled and spluttered and retreated into embarrassing excuses and evasions. He repeatedly got Ann Widdecombe’s name wrong. The hostility of both the audience and his opponents seemed to have discomfited him. So it was left to Ann Widdecombe to defend the Church single-handedly. She did well, showed a light touch and took Hitchens to task for exaggerations and so on. But in the end Hitchens and Fry were able to persuade decisively by simply listing one after another the wicked things that have been done in the Church’s name over the centuries. More than anything they focused on the “institutionalisation of the rape and torture and maltreatment of children”. That’s what Hitchens called it – that’s pretty much what it was – and Fry returned to it. I don’t blame them for harping on about these unspeakable crimes, because there is no answer to them. Then they talked about the Church’s teaching on homosexuality. When Zeinab Badawi in the chair asked the archbishop whether Christ himself ever actually said anything about homosexuality, he replied by saying “that’s not the point” or words to that effect, and sounded slippery. Even if you didn’t agree with him you’d have to concede Hitchens especially was spectacular and hyper-articulate. Fry, who is less avuncular somehow now he is so slimline, was visibly nervous and appeared to have a dry mouth. Hitchens drank bottled water mostly, and plenty of it, though from time to time when he was sitting down he raised a glass of amber fluid from out of sight, down on the floor somewhere, and took a slug from that. I don’t know why he kept a drink under the table like that, perhaps because the debate was filmed for broadcast. He sweated profusely and dabbed his shiny forehead, eyes and cheeks with a handkerchief. But his diction was clear and he was in control, like a revivalist tent preacher, building the volume to a crescendo at the end, to applause and roars from the audience. It was a gripping evening’s entertainment but a little discouraging for those of us who are Catholics. I found myself wishing, one, that the Catholic debaters would for once not content themselves with offering pettifogging excuses but instead actually own up to some of the charges, and, two, I wished that there still existed a great Catholic apologist like Chesterton or Belloc, someone who was not only brave and prepared to square up to the Hitch, but was his intellectual equal. Surely there is someone today who could do that? |

viaro: I did not say anything about Darwinism or Darwin in my question, did I? Changes in lifeforms is somethings that had been observed for many tens or hundreds of years before Darwin. And further, I am not asking you about the HOW this happens. I am simply asking whether the evidence on the ground shows that lifeform is immutable or mutable. Forget about Darwin, Natural Selection, theory, etc, etc, for now. Let us just deal with the facts on the ground, which are: a) Why are the fossils of mammals NEVER found in the pre-cambrian era? Why is it that about 600 MYA to 800 MYA, there are no evidence of multicellular organisms? What happened between 600MYA and today that resulted in multicellular organisms with complex bodyplans? viaro: No - you have not addressed the question. I asked - What explains the fact that about 5% of Whales are born with fully developed hindlimbs? Where did these limb come from? Could it be that whales have the genes for making legs, which for 95% of the time are not expressed? |

Religion / Re: 20 - 20 Questions From Huxley In The Huxley-Noetic Marathon by huxley(m): 11:41pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Anyone fancies these 20 questions? |
Religion / Re: The Aim Of Science by huxley(m): 11:32pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
viaro: I made a statement. What assumption did I make. What assumption is there in this statement? A theory is a hypothesis that has passed ALL currently verificational tests applied to it thus far. And futher, has been accepted by the community of scientists who are specifically interested in this area of inquiry. Of course, many theories do not yet answer ALL questions conceivable that one might throw at it. It is classed as a "valid" or acceptable theory if it keeps answering more and more and more of such questions. Take for instance the Theory of Cosmic Expansion, commonly called the Big Bang. This explains the observed expansion of the universe, cosmic microwave background radiation, etc, etc. But does it explain everything about the universe? NO. Is it likely that BB will be overturned by an even better theory soon. Hell, YES - and this will happen within our lifetimes. And for any new theory to be valid, it will have to have more explanatory capability than the BB - it will have to better explain the expansion, CMB, the uniformity of the cosmos, etc, etc, in addition to provide other explanation not covered by the BB. No, scientific paradigms are not that ad hoc, huxley. That is why philosophers of science have continued to note that 'scientists' who reason that way are not doing science. To say that "if" it could be shown that mammals existed in the pre-cambrian, then the TOE is "false" - that does not validate Darwinism at all. You're delving into the field of Paleontology - and paleotolotogists have a huge problem for Darwinists to this very moment. One could also make the same postulation of an "iff" ('if and only if' - a biconditional logical connective) and therefore find no answers in paleontology for Darwinian claims. Yes, indeed. You do not seem to understand what TOE contends. Simply put, it is COMMON descent with modification. This implies simpler and less complex organisms (or bodyplans) precede more complex ones. TOE will absolutely NOT survive any discovery of more complex bodyforms preceding less complex ones if there has not been some degenerative process in the lineage. Can you show me any reputed paleontologist who does not accept TOE? Can you explain the paleontological difficulties that exist in TOE? Evolution, defines as change of lifeforms, is a FACT. TOE by Natural Selection is but one (of possibly many) mechanisms by which this change of lifeforms can be explained. Genetic drift is another process that drive and explains evolution. However many driving forces and theories scientist can invent, the FACT remains that lifeforms change. If you think lifeforms don't change, you will have to explain why it is that no fossils of mammals are ever found in the pre-cambrian,
Some theories can survive counter-evidence by modification of the theories. That happens in science ALL the time. Think of what is generally called Einstein's big mistake, when he modified his equations, re-inserting the gravitational expansive constant. However, the theory of common descent with modification CANNOT survive the discovery of more complex organism preceding less complex one. You are wont to make ad hoc statements without providing and supporting references or evidence, such as this: Evolution (ala Darwinism) still has failed to reconcile with the scientific difficulties posed by paleontology What is the difficulty posed by paleontology? Can you show some scientific reference for such difficulties? While you are at it, can you also show me a scientific theory that ANSWERS all the questions in its field? |

the_seeker: As a man of science, why don't you get the examples you refer to and post then here so that all can see them. OK, you say bacteria have remain bacteria for over 1 billion years. That is absolutely true. But why were there no other more complex organism, like bats, sheep and sycamore trees 1 billion years ago? Why are about 5% of whales born with fully developed hindlimbs, like those of a cow. Take a look at this link for a typical whale hindlimb. Why is it that more complex animals are built on the bodyplan of less complex ones? |
Religion / Why Did Jesus Come Into The World? To Judge Or Not To Judge? by huxley(m): 10:03pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
John 3: 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever believes on him may not perish, but have life eternal. 17[b] For God has not sent his Son into the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him.[/b] 18He that believes on him is not judged: but he that believes not has been already judged, because he has not believed on the name of the only-begotten Son of God. John 9: 38And he said, I believe, Lord: and he did him homage. 39[b]And Jesus said, For judgment am I come into this world, that they which see not may see, and they which see may become blind.[/b] 40And [some] of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, Are we blind also? John 12: 46 I am come into the world [as] light, that every one that believes on me may not abide in darkness; 47[b]and if any one hear my words and do not keep [them], I judge him not, for I am not come that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.[/b] 48He that rejects me and does not receive my words, has him who judges him: the word which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the last day. So did Jesus come to judge the world or not to judge the world? You decide! |
Religion / Re: The Aim Of Science by huxley(m): 9:56pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
viaro: A theory is a hypothesis that has passed ALL currently verificational tests applied to it thus far. And futher, has been accepted by the community of scientists who are specifically interested in this area of inquiry. Something accepted as a theory does not mean that it is forever incapable of being rejected. Every good scientific theory has to pass the test of falsifiability, which is a way of demonstrating the theory false. In the case of The Theory of Evolution, if it could be shown that complex animals with complex bodyplans, such as mammals existed in the pre-cambrian, that would demonstrate that the theory was false. SO far, NOT a single tests has proved evolution false. So as a theory it is a valid one. |

No one who is well educated in the matters of science, religions and philosophy would ever claim that Science disproves God or that Evolution disproves God. These are particularly sloppy statements and anyone who makes pronouncements like this deserves to be taken to task. A better way of conveying the message would be something like this; The results of some of our best sciences and rational enterprise makes the belief of the traditional gods (eg Abrahamic gods) unjustified or unwarranted. Science, by itself, is not in the business of disproving things. It is in the business of revealing the truth about the nature of reality. It is up to the individual to formulate their worldview either based on the fruits of science or in contravention of these results. If anyone claims that sciences have disproved God, he has to demonstrate that experiment which has achieved this feat. Appeal to evolution, which is a mere theory, will not do the job. It is grossly unscientific to preceed the word THEORY with the adjective MERE. We see this particularly from opponents of The Theory of Evolution. I listed the other scientific theories because if it is justified in describing TToE with the adjective MERE or MERELY, it must also be reasonably in describing the others as such. If you disagree, can you say why it would be wrong in saying; 1) Merely Cell Theory 2) Merely The theory of Gravity 3) Merely Atomic Theory? |

Religion / The Transformation Of Huxley? by huxley(m): 7:10pm On Oct 04, 2009 |
I have agonised over many years about whether, in addition to holding an atheistic worldview, I should also hold a materialistic worldview. For many years, I have called myself a naturalist, disavowing all forms of the supernatural. A naturalist basically claims that everything that exists in the universe (or metaverse) can be explained in purely natural form. Thus, a naturalist claims that if it turns out that a "supernatural" realm does exist, this realm is actually a manifestation of the generality of the natural, and would become subsumed into the natural. On the other hand, a materialist makes the claim that ONLY the material world exist and everything in the universe (or metaverse) is a manifestation of matter in one form or the other. I have found it hard to square materialism with my knowledge of the feature of the universe? Over the last few months, I have been looking at some research in what is generally term the paranormal, and am quite impressed with some of the results of work in this area. What stands out clearly is that the paranormal is amenable to being studied by naturalistic means. What also stands out is that there is a lot which cannot yet be explained using existing materialistic theories. Checkout the following two lectures: 1) Dean Radin 2) Rupert Sheldrake I recommend you watch at least one of the videos above before commenting. |
Religion / Re: 'ardi,' Oldest Human Ancestor, Unveiled by huxley(m): 2:37pm On Oct 04, 2009 |
the_seeker: I am so disappointed with your knowledge of the field. I asked you for publically available documentation that you know the subject matter, yet you have NOT produced a SINGLE one. Just some references of the so-called 50 or 500 PhDs would be nice. Any scientifically credible references - yet you produce NOTHING. And you have the audacity to come out and claim to know the field. Yes - I admit there has been some hoaxes and fraud in biology as there has been in physics and chemistry. But does that invalidate the entire field? Absolutely NOT. Who are the people that fine out these hoaxes and fraud? Have you ever heard of a proclamation or revelation that some scientific theory is valid or in valid from some spiritual being? I asked several questions, which you singularly failed to address. Let me repeat them here: 1) Why are fossils of mammals and birds NEVER found in the pre-cambrian? 2) What explanation can you give for the fact that some whales (about 5%) are born with hindlimbs? and additionally 3) Why are there no placental mammals native to the Australian continent? Please, Please, Please, try and address these question, with scientific material and references as much as possible. I would appreciate it if your answers takes the form: 1) Fossils of mammals and birds have never been found in the pre-cambrian BECAUSE - - - - - 2) Some whales are born with hindlimbs BECAUSE - - - - - 3) No placental mammals are native to Australia BECAUSE - - - - - And provide some scientific reference that WE can all refer to. the_seeker: Another question for you. Why is there no evidence for a complex eye, of the type of mammals today, amonsgt creatures that live in the pre-cambrian? You are strawmaning here again. You are making a claim that evolution does not make. Evolution does NOT make the claim that the eye evolved from the optic nerve. This shows your total lack of knowledge in this area. YOU ARE A BIG FAT CHRISTIAN LIAR 4 JESUS. I have not option but to call you this. Evolution ABSOLUTELY does NOT make this claim. The most credible evolutionary explanation for the eyes says the eye evolved from a bundle of photo-sensitive skin cells. So here again, you are a liar for Jesus. the_seeker: This is what you said:
I asked you to explain what you meant by "difference races of humans". Yet you did not. Please explain this comment. Neanderthal, Cromagnon, are what are loosely called humanoids - meaning the possess humanlike features. There are many possibly hundreds of these different species. But know, with DNA, we can check whether they are actually humans (Homo Sapien Sapien) or not. It turns out that Neanderthals were on a different evolutionary branch than Homo Sapiens Sapiens, exactly the result the comparative anatomy predicted. Why would you Jesus create a different species of humans only to wipe the entire population all out again? the_seeker: You have no understanding for what evolution beings by transitional species. The term "missing link" is unscientific, that is why I don't like to use it. Transitional species are species that possess features intermediate between a primitive form and a more advance form. For instance, 1) Were there birds in the pre-cambrian? Are there birds today? These questions, if answered honestly will show that ato some point in the past some species started to develop features that are common in birds today. [size=18pt] Can you explain to be this fossils: Anchiornis, only reported last month, See here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/8273938.stm[/size] the_seeker: It is known that there are several mechanism that drive evolution: Natural Selection being one of them, genetic drift another. But it is not known whether these are sufficient ALONE to drive the entire process of speciation. Evolution, like many things about nature, still remains unknown to us. Punctuated Equilibrium itself is not a driving force, but a phenomemnon about the pace of evolution and the generation of new species. The central thesis is like you said - long periods of stasis, punctuated by short periods of speciation. But it DOES NOT say that there would be no transitional or intermediate form. What you said is total nonsense and rubbish. Just think about it - if PE is true in the way you described it, then the species from which new species arise would be the imtermediate forms. For instance, if Species D arises from Species C via PE, then Species C is the intermediate to D. Simple So yet again, you are talking rubbish. the_seeker: With respect to the eye, evolution simple predicts that there will be simple eyes, with fewer features than some of the complex eyes of advance animals. Basically, once the genes to photosensitivity sensory skin cells had become established in a population, natural selection would slowly over about 400000 years fashion a more complex eyes from such simple eyes. Many of such simple eyes have been found in nature and in the fossil record, and advance eyes appear in the fossil record much later than simple eyes. And natural selection has the ability to work the other way. If an animals lives in an environment were it does not uses its eye, natural selection will make the eye obsolete and eventually disappear. There are many such species around today, exactly as predicted by Evolution By Natural Selection; 1) The blind cave fish - Astyanax fasciatus mexicanus. Check out an evolutionary explanation here: http://seedmagazine.com/content/article/pz_myers_on_how_the_cavefish_lost_its_eyes/ [size=14pt]If Jesus created animals immutably, why would he gives animals some organs, such as the eyes, that are no longer used? Why would he have created flightless birds with rudimentary wings? [/size] Now, let me attempt your questions; how did behaviours (something virtual) evolve?Very good question. This is an area I have just started to read up on and there are many good books in this subject. One of the greatest problems here is that traces of behavior instances are not preserved in the fossil record, so a lot of this are simply inferential studies. So the quick answer is - I don't know much about this area. how did patterns and designs evolve? Darwin said in a letter to his friend 'the sight of the peacoks tail makes me sick' You keep making an elementary mistake. Evolution science is not revelation - so whatever Darwin said does not have to be taken as gospel. There are many things that Darwin could not explain in his day, but have become explanable today. The Peacocks tail is one such - There is well-founded evolutionary explanation of design and patterns - It is called Sexual Selection. I am surprise you ask question like this and you claim to be up to speed with the subject. You are either lying for Jesus or plain ignorant. give me one example of positive mutation in humans (apart from sickle cell. Lol) There are plenty: 1) Most of the population of Western Europe exists today because their descendents are those who survive the Black Death pandemic on the Middle ages. The survivors had the mutation that allowed them to survive the pandemic 2) Those prostitute in Kenya who are resistant to HIV: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/09/080901205622.htm http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2003/nov/23/kenya.aids 3) The mutation that cause the lose of pigmentation amongst non-tropical dwelling humans, eg Europeans. This is advantageous because people with dark skin living in the higher altitudes would not absorb enough high energy sun light to make vitamin D. So the would suffer from many developmental diseases like rickets, kwashoko, etc. There are many more: why has the bacteria remained unchanged for 1 billion years? Despite being the most mutant of organisms Does evolution say that ALL organism HAVE TO evolute into other species? what happened in the cambrian explosion? The cambrian explosion records in fossil form the huge and diverse appearance of many different animal species with hard body parts that are easily fossilizable. It also records the early appearance of vastly new bodyplans.
How would you know they have not evolved?
I do not know. Now, I have done my level best at addressing your question. Would you mind returning the compliment and addressing the questions I asked directly, quoting the questions and providing your answer? That is the only honest way of dealing with them. As a Christian, I would expect you to act in a most honest way, unless you are a BFCL4J. |
