Question for "Evolutionists" |
Do you really believe that there may be intelligent life on other planets?
If so, what about the possibility that THEY may have created us, the
universe did evolve, and they were here first?
After all, we have successfully cloned animals and are very close to cloning
human beings. This is the first step in learning how to CREATE humans. How
do you know that these space aliens on a distant planet that we have been
long searching for are not simply millions of years ahead of us in
technology and they created us as a long-term science experiment in their
search to explain THEIR existence?
That would be a plausible scientific explanation for our existence, would it
not?

How could the "Big Bang" be considered a "theory" if the advocates of
the
theory don't even attempt to explain how the matter that exploded came
to
be?
Yea, I see what you're saying now. The biggest problem is that
scientists
refuse to believe that all that matter came from nothing because then it
would support creation. This is the reason for the "pinpoint" theory.
I have not yet read any articles about the "pinpoint" theory. I did see
some posts related to it. Don't the proponents of that theory still need
to explain how the matter came to be?
Yes, and they can't.

Can you tell us how your deity created matter. Just asserting that your
deity created matter doesn't prove anything.

Jason,
First, let me say that you are one sloppy poster. The explanation of how
matter came to be can be that we don't know. But guess what guys, you don't
know how your deity created matter, so you have nothing to rave about!

great point. However, when we claim that "creation science" is a
theory--you object since we have to eye-witness evidence to prove that God
created life and matter. On the other hand, scientists can develop the Big
Bang Theory and you don't object despite the lack of evidence related to
how the matter that exploded came to be. It's a double standard.

This was exactly what I expected from him. Didn't I say that already?
Because you cannot explain in full detail how God created matter, it must
mean that God does not exist. (By the way if you somehow came up with some
scientific explanation of how God created matter, he would have accused you
of making that up, so the question didn't mean anything in the first place.)
The double-standard of course is that he cannot explain how this matter came
to be, but somehow that doesn't matter. It still means there is no God.

What a liar. All it means is that the creation of matter is not evidence for
any deity.

Nowhere does science say that there is no God. It's unfortunate to see
Christians make such fundamental mistakes.

That'a a good question because at Planck time there was no life. Just
expansion of mass. Life had to begin somewhere somehow even if it was a
micro-organism.
