Cousin Ricky Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Someone else learning “science” from an apologist or preacher, rather than from a science book? And preferably a book written by a scientist other than Michael Behe, who tried to build a case for unsolved mysteries based on mysteries that had already been solved.

Cousin Ricky Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Monty Python and the Dunning-Kruger effect! Aside from not knowing from where people who are ignorant of science get their tallies of scientific categories, has this person not noticed that disease still exists?

ConscientiousObjector Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 After a long facebook conversation I started about why people have faith, one of my fundy friends (who was an atheist when I knew him in the military) posted this: "To be atheist you must be arrogant. 90% of all people that have ever existed have believed in some sort of "god." To be atheist (there is no god), you must say that you are smarter than 90% of all mankind throughout the existence of time." Another Navy friend replied: "Hahaha, I think you'd be disagreeing with 90% of people who ever lived if you were an athiest, not thinking you were smarter. Why do you assume that they think that way?" So here was my reply: With all due respect, I think your assumption is somewhat arrogant. By that logic, Copernicus and Galileo were arrogant for believing that the earth was not the center of the universe. Semmelweis and Pasteur were arrogant for believing that tiny, invisible germs could make you sick. Your statement reminded me of a Tommy Lee Jones quote from Men In Black, " A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you’ll know tomorrow." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrive Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Responses from a friends FB post asking for prayers for the families of those killed in the Charleston church shooting: "I have to agree with Jeff. This world is not safe. Churches may have to look at tightening security and even hiring armed guards. It's a sad reality of this messed up world." "No the sad reality is that we need to get closer to God and start praying more and actually mean it! This was no surprise to God, He knew this was going to happen and He'll use this as a way to bless someone from, prayerfully a lot of people. Those people who died are in heaven dancing with Jesus right now, they are where they worked to get to. Now it's us that have to see this as part of His plan and make sure we have our heaven plan in order. But I think the last thing that God wants is for us to turn His house into a war zone." "Good Christians aren't turning the church into a war zone my unknown friend. But the Devil is trying his best. I know it is a distasteful thought (self-defense in church, school etc.) " Another post had a huge argument over Fox News. One person thinks their reporting this as part of the war on christians is fear mongering and opportunistic, since it was obviously racially motivated. The other thinks that they are only trying to prevent another Ferguson like riot, so it is the responsible thing to blame religious persecution instead.

It's so sad that the US has got itself in this dreadful position, with such a high human cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cousin Ricky Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I agree, read your Buybull. You will then be unable to avoid making an informed choice: either follow the Buybull or treat women like human beings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
