Whatever is not known, god did it. Whatever is known however, god did not do.

Yes you are ashamed to tell them that I messed you up last night. Remember how you rolled on the ground and begged me not to kill you before I sent you to hell.

This sounds like you are gay and really messed up Alfa and now he's ashamed to admit it.

sometimes I wonder if goats now have to ability to open threads on nairaland.

Dapo777:
Which is the Ebla document?

It is the source of Genesis and some other old testament writings.

sinequanon:
When it rains, earthworms tend to surface from underground.

Creatures, like seagulls take advantage of this by "running on the spot", their feet mimicking the pitter-patter of rain. This encourages earthworms to the surface, on which they feed.

The question is, using The Theory of Evolution, explain how the seagulls developed this ability.

More info about "worm charming"...

Seagulls wait for the right conditions to do their dance.

These are the kind of observations that happen around you regularly that can help you assess the Theory of Evolution more critically.

(Wait for some illogical so-and-so to read a conclusion into the OP.)

There is such a thing as cultural transmission, recently termed meme by Dawkins in his book, the selfish gene.

Animals do copy behavior from each other and they do secret chemical signals like pheromones that help them communicate "safe", "unsafe", and "s.ex" to others. Such communications also spread a behavior accross a group.

what's great fsm?

Its actually GFSM, meaning the Great Flying Spaghetti Monster. He is the creator of the universe and everything in it including us. He is the ultimate judge of morality and the enforcer of the same. He is the all in all, king of kings, spaghetti of spaghetties. And he is coming back to judge all who refuse to worship him.

Op, a little about your warped view of science. You seem to think science is an institutionalized organization like religion. Fortunately, science is just a body of knowledge that is very dynamic and which does not have favorites.

I like the topic you brought up however, the concept of time could have been in existence because of the weakness in how our brain perceives events and in our limitations to space.
This is true considering that time can be cheated. A wormhole can be created which would get us a very long distance in a short time than would be possible if we were travelling linearly (if we can get a source of energy large enough and if we can contain it).

So all the past, present and future events can occur all at once, and an observer outside that dimension can witness it all at once. A mind outside that dimension can also start the reaction and watch it end all at once, however, those reactions will unfold sequentially to any observer within the dimension.

I hope that is the point you are trying to make.
I will let you confirm before I tell you why science is not stuck and why god is still not the answer or the guy outside our dimension.

Wow. I have always known that Yahweh is not exclusive to the israelis from the time the Ebla document surfaced.

OP, am certain you dropped out of primary school.

What a shame.

^^^no problem

^^^seriously, is that Mary? your Goddess?

I would give you the link to download the book but spambot is banning me.

Go to 4shared, searching in the book section for the God Delusion, you will be able to download it

Jesoul, why did you ban OOMAN why breaking any rules, is this how you do now.?

JeSoul: Done. You might keep getting banned trying to open that topic as it is typically spammers that populate this section with those 'join satanism' threads. You should be able to comment on a pre-existing thread - use the search function. Cheers.

thanks

many people want to join the church of satan and i thought i could help, that is all.

striktlymi: Good morning,

I have seen very many arguments put forth by some Atheists that would make you stop dead in your tracks and THINK!!! The first thoughts that come to mind for me is: This guy is very smart!..The argument is devoid from any manner of fallacy, the presentation is uptight and the general feel of the argument makes so much sense even if I do not necessarily agree with the individual's perspective.

This sadly is the complete opposite of some arguments presented by some Atheists here in this section. I have seen so many arguments that make no sense in the very least and the sad reality is that the individual Atheist who presented the argument leaves feeling very smart and accomplished...I can't help but wonder how the individual cannot see the big question mark on his or her ability to exert him or herself intellectually.

I do understand that quite a lot of my brethren argue out of emotions and frankly some, if not most of the arguments put forth are a direct result of what they have been taught from childhood which they find difficult to shake cause it's all they know and have been made to believe; but to see an Atheist argue like these my brethren is really appalling cause of the Atheist claim of logic, knowledge and an ability to apply him or herself intellectually.

The truth is, I have seen some Atheists argue with very sound logic, reason and one can't help but say that this Atheist is a knowledgeable nairalander but the silly arguments I have seen is something to be worried about. There is a need for every individual (Religious or irreligious)to read through his or her post and ask him or herself whether it makes sense before posting, otherwise we will just see another individual arguing with his emotions rather than with his head.

Thank you!

nice post you put up.

actually, i think that it is the religious that are arguing based on what a books says and not based on what is happening presently in the world around us. If you read through most of the argument placed by the religious of your kind, you will notice that their arguments is always based on what your Gods want or does not want. This has prevented most religious people from actually accepting scientific facts and simple logic.

Rational thinking is impaired when there is a presupposition, think about that

OOMAN is banned again. pls unban me
