Mr_Anony: A general card game Mr_Anony: You are using creationists talking points against evolution eg total randomness |

Mr_Anony: A game of cards is both random and calculated. The shuffling of cards makes it random but you have to know how to add numbers to win the game. Use your brain. Stop trying to fit creationism into common sense |

Only-Rebel: List of lies in this creationist babble -Darwin was an atheist. False. (Darwin was an agnostic) -Evolution has been proven to be False. False. (Creationism has been debunked, evolution has proof; fossils, current evolution and dna) -Science has proven that God has created all things. False.

Mr_Anony: Adaptation, natural selection. Evolution is tied to survival no matter how random it is.What is complex? A mammal that lays eggs or not? Mr_Anony: Not complete randomness. Survival of the fittest. The gene would propagate itself in the best host. Mr_Anony: You should try to understand the terms you are using. There are spontaneous and induced mutations. Evolution is not completely random. This is one of the basic misconception about evolution. Mr_Anony: It makes sense not |

Logic Mind: Nah, it's just a movie that touched me. You talk as if hollywood hasnt touched almost everyone that has a tv. At least a quarter of what you know about America is from hollywood movies. The movie is clearly fiction. It is the questions or philosphical undertones that inspired me. Just like the matrix. Were you not inspired by the matrix? The movie has been out for over a week now. If I were paid to promote this movie, I would have started a week ago |

Logic Mind: anybody that gives his hard earned money to pastors deserve all the poverty coming his way. Yes and no. How is an illiterate shoemaker going to know any better. Some people are only ignorant because of education and environment. These people deserve help and pity Some like, many here on Nairaland are educated and willfully ignorant. These people deserve condemnation and to be poor 3 Likes |

Mr_Anony: Good read I must say, nice analogy of the cards. It explains how evolution might be true as a result of randomness however this analogy has some flaws because it would be saying that 1) Humans dont need their wisdom teeth and are stopping to grow them. A bit backwards dont you think? 2) Sorry, I dont know the context 3) "Missing link" is a colloquial term. The fact that you use it shows that you are lacking basic knowledge in evolution. There are numerous transitional fossils that have been discovered. There arent any "transitional" animals alive for the same reason your human ancestors are not alive. They are our ancestors who where steadily changing into us. "Missing link" is still a popular term, well recognized by the public and often used in the popular media. It is, however, avoided in the scientific press, as it relates to the concept of the great chain of being and to the notion of simple organisms being primitive versions of complex ones, both of which have been discarded in biology.[59] In any case, the term itself is misleading, as any known transitional fossil, like Java Man, is no longer missing. While each find will give rise to new gaps in the evolutionary story on each side, the discovery of more and more transitional fossils continues to add to our knowledge of evolutionary transitions.[4][60] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitional_fossil#Missing_links 4) Huh? |

musKeeto: If it shifts atheists towards agnosticism, can it shift atheists to believers? :-) Nah, it wont move atheists to believe in God. I'm still an atheist. Every atheist is an agnostic in a sense that you cant disprove God's existence in the same way you cant disprove the boogeyman 100% |

![]() If you haven't seen the movie "Prometheus", you better see it! It has deep philosophical and religious undertones. Go to your local cinema right now This movie has shifted me towards the agnostic side (sorry, Logic Mind). I'm still an atheist but agnostic in the sense that unicellular organisms or other life forms that made our evolution possible could be our "gods". They might not be omnipotent (why are many extinct?) but they have a part in our evolution or creation. The movie is about man's search into space with a belief that one could meet his/her creator to find the answers to unanswerable questions about man's origin. The setting of the movie is in space and on an earth-like planet in another galaxy. The scenery alone in the movie is magnificent with waterfalls, monolithic spaceships and blizzards. I will not go further into specifics of the movie not to ruin it for people who haven seen it but I will give 4 perspectives of the movie. The Christian perspective; "How many are your works, O Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number-living things both large and small." (Psalm 104:24-25) God is the creator. While experiencing the beauty of the new planet and its weather in the movie, one has to stop and think about the sheer power, time and wisdom that would have been necessary to create it all. If there is an entity behind it, it has to be God; the warm glow of the sun, the calm flow of the clouds, the serenity of the blue sky, the diversity in living things, who shall doubt your omnipotence, king of kings? [img]http://3.bp..com/-FlWA9kk44sY/Th9pnhKw0EI/AAAAAAAAAA0/EvtM3i_UCmo/s1600/creator.png[/img] The Muslim perspective; ![]() ![]() "God is the Creator of everything. He is the guardian over everything. Unto Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth." (39:62, 63) In the movie, we see man searching for knowledge. Allah advises us to search for knowledge and through Him does all knowledge come forth. The end of the movie led to more questions. Only Allah can answer all questions for He is the all knowing; العليم (Al-ʿAlīm) the all knowing, the omniscient. Furthermore, there are 99 names for Allah. Some of them are - الخالق Al-Khāliq The Creator - البارئ Al-Bāriʾ The Evolver, The Fashioner, The Designer - المصور Al-Muṣawwir The Fashioner of Forms ![]() The atheistic/agnostic perspective; One does not have to appeal to God to set the initial conditions for the creation of the universe, but if one does He would have to act through the laws of physics. [Stephen Hawking] In the movie, man searches for his origins. Man maketh his destiny and man is his own God. Who wrote the religious books? Man. Who studies science? Man. Who makes discoveries? Man. Who enforces laws on earth? Man. Who preaches these laws? Man. Furthermore, in the movie, they used spaceships and computers to travel. This is science made and used by man to find his origin. Furthermore, the movie suggests that other living life-forms made human beings. This is not exactly contrary to evolution, scientists know that life comes from life. Human beings evolved from other life forms. "Geology shows that fossils are of different ages. Paleontology shows a fossil sequence, the list of species represented changes through time. Taxonomy shows biological relationships among species. Evolution is the explanation that threads it all together. Creationism is the practice of squeeezing one's eyes shut and wailing "does not!." [img]http://americanatheism.files./2011/10/atheism_motivational_poster_40.jpg[/img] Greek Pagan perspective; The movie was aptly titled "Prometheus". Prometheus in Greek mythology represents man's curiousity and quest for knowledge. Prometheus (Greek: Προμηθεύς) is a Titan, culture hero, and trickster figure who in Greek mythology is credited with the creation of man from clay and the theft of fire for human use, an act that enabled progress and civilization. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus ![]() 1 Like |

cyrexx: I will prefer use the time machine to fast forward into that future in human history where everybody's eyes will be opened to have seen religion for what it truly is - a deceptive tool of tyranny and control to provide a false hope for the deluded. That is the world i want to live in. That future doesnt exist without totally debunking religion in the first place. |

olasesi: The Koran now remixes stories? Wasnt it God that killed the first born of Egyptians according to the Old Testament? Also remember when Muhammad conquered other people, he left the females alive too. "what your right hand posseses" ma malakat aymanukum Furthermore, why did you ignore the other verse; [/quote] Quran loves murder 4:89 They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) t[b]hen take them and kill them wherever ye find them,[/b] and choose no friend nor helper from among them,[/quote] ![]() ![]() ![]() olasesi: When did I become a descendant of Isreal? Are you a slave or something? What do you men that I wouldnt have been born if Pharoah was given freewill? olasesi: Islam is a religion of jungle justice. Surah 4;89 puts unbelievers as enemies. Is that not wrong? You will claim that Islam is only against enemies of Islam but when you realise that America can do and does the same and say that they only torture "terrorist enemies of America" when they just torture muslims. America- who is a terrorist? Bigoted American answer- a muslim Quran- who is an enemy? Bigoted muslim answer- a non-muslim You are as corrupt as the infidel west you dislike. Tell me, if Islam is a religion of justice, why is slavery not Haraam in islam or the Quran? Why were all the major muslim/sharia countries behind the West in abolishing slavery? The west abolished slavery in 19th century. Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia etc did it in the 20th century olasesi: Why would a slave master murder the sons of his slaves when the sons could work for him? The orginal story puts God as the executioner of Egyptian first borns as one of the plagues. [size=18pt] By the way; I AM LOGICBOY NOT LOGIC MIND[/size] |

ijawkid: 1)Where did I say that Jesus is black? I am stating that Jesus should be fairly represented. If Koreans paint Jesus as Korean and Indians paint Jesus as Indian, why do blacks paint Jesus as white? Is there not an inherent problem 2) You claim that Jesus is caucasian. That is a lie because nobody knows what Jesus looked like, he could have looked Arab, Black or Jewish. Nobody knows. I only say he should be painted in every race This is how I know that you're a slave; all d blacks who frown @ Jesus been depicted as not black are all racist...... So when a Korean man frowns at a white Jesus and paints Jesus as Korean, it is not racist? It is only racist when your fellow blacks do it? Because, the white man frowns at Jesus looking Arab and paints him white. It is only racist when your fellow blacks do it? Ijawkid, you're a slave. |

ijawkid: I know! Your ignorance is bliss! The following things dont bother you; -Christianity supported the slavery of your forefathers -The catholics compiled the bible you use and you sound foolish when you claim that they are fake christians -Jesus was racist towards the Canaanite woman. If a doctor did exactly the same to you, you wouldnt find it funny. Only a slave like you wouldnt see the problem of Jesus being painted white in a country that is predominatly black. -you're too ignorant to realise that if Jesus existed, there was little chance that he was white -you're too ignorant to realise that the reverse would never happen in Europe -you're too ignorant to realise that I am not the first black person to raise the issue of Jesus skin colour. -you're too ignorant to realise that even whites complain about Jesus's representation as white |
