Atheism is also a belief in non-existance of God

Nope. Stop lying about atheists.

and all beleivers in
atheism very strongly defend their belief, call it their narrow
mindedness or enlightment, it is no different than the passion people
expresses in their religious beliefs such as christianity.

I see: you now think you speak for all atheists as well as all Christians.
Fascinating symptom.

I separated
all beliefs including atheism. Looks like you are a narrow minded
person incapable of understanding intelligent arguments. Calling people
liars without provocation shows that you need to grow up.

You are still lying about atheism. Atheists don't have 'a belief in [the]
non-existance [sic] of God [sic]': the very *notion* of that specific
god-fantasy - one of countless thousands of such fantasies, all of them
completely without evidential support - *simply has no meaning* outside of
the (in your tradition's case) Biblical belief system. Furthermore,
'strength of conviction' or 'passion' are not in any sense proof of
'religion'; and rational belief founded on an evidential basis is NOT the
same as proudly and determinedly counter-factual 'religious faith'. So I
repeat: *Atheism is not a religion*.
God-deluded people and their appeasers continually try to bring these silly
superstitions before non-believers -- and these non-believers respond by
saying (i) that there is not the slightest evidence for any of the thousands
of different god-fantasies that have swarmed and multiplied in the darkness
of the primitive mind; and (ii) that an overwhelming mass of modern human
knowledge makes the existence of every one of these 'gods' completely
implausible, even where the actual claims of a given 'religion' aren't
ridiculous on strictly logical grounds. Atheism is as much a 'religion' as
*your rational and principled and determined refusal to believe in the
Easter Bunny* is 'a religion'. Atheism is merely *a position adopted with
regard to a religious issue*. And if you can't see the difference between
those two things, then you are pitiful as well as despicable.

Not quite, cs starts with a traditional account
which must not be changed at any cost. Science is
always willing and does change its ideas with the
introduction of compelling new evidence or better
ways to evaluate it. By this process it could in
principle one day be given over to something

Show us "lots of other evidence" please. What you mention is another of
science's strengths, it is self correcting. It was other scientists
looking at the tooth who came to think it was not a primate and based on
their evidence it became the accepted view. Cs is unable to do same
because it starts with a cast in concrete traditional account which can
never never be allowed at any cost to be altered by other evidence. This
is one earmark why cs is not an evidence driven science, not science in
fact.

As has beem amply demonstrated by Jason. Anything which did not
fit his prejucided view of evolution just did a 'fly-by' and he just
simply repeated his prejudices as if we had never replied.
As usual withe these people they eventually start going round in

Are you saying people are not allowed to make mistakes and get it

Les,
You missed the point. The evolutionist was trying to make the evidence (tooth)
fit into evolution theory. The painting of the cave man is further proof
that the evolutionist mis-interpreted the evidence due to his evolution
tinted glasses glasses. That's NOT the way that scientists are suppose to
deal with evidence. I used the story as an example of how evolutionists
treat almost all of the evidence that they discover. For example, it's
impossible to determine how much hair is on a body of a man or ape that
has been buried for several thousand years. However, if a bone from a so
called cave man is found, the artist that paints the picture is the one
that determines how much hair was on the body. If the artist has on his
"evolution tinted glasses", there will be almost no hair on the caveman's
body since they want it to look as much as possible like a human.

Aside from an exaggerated claim, artistic renditions are not scientific
evidence. If one goes to icr and sees their same examples rendered by
their artists, which have lots of hair and which not? The similarity that
demonstrates relatedness and how related one example is to another is
99.99 percent based on physical structure and patterns and tools and other
such cultural material.

Creationism is not a theory. Creationism is not based on evidence so no
matter what evidence is discovered, it will never change. It is not
subject to modification by scientific means.
Evolution is a theory. Evolution has been changed and will continue to
change as new evidence is discovered. It is subject to modification by
scientific means.

Les,
You missed the point.

Part of my point was:
"Maybe you are actually misrepresenting what happened anyway"
I don't know the case so cannot comment but if your newspapers
are anything like ours they often totally get their stories wrong and
sensation is more important than accuracy. I hardly expect your
mob to be unbiassed in its reporting either.

The evolutionist was trying to make the evidence (tooth)
fit into evolution theory.

According to you. For all I know he may have said it was a tentative
conclusion subject to further investigation. It was eventually shown
- by an 'evolutionist' to be the tooth of a pig (leastways that's what
you claim. It may have been an early fossil pig for all I know. I
ma totally reliant on you report of the event and we already know you
are happy to lie for us. Does your god forgive those that bear false
witness. Does your god need people to lie for it?

The painting of the cave man is further proof
that the evolutionist mis-interpreted the evidence due to his evolution
tinted glasses glasses. That's NOT the way that scientists are suppose to
deal with evidence. I used the story as an example of how evolutionists
treat almost all of the evidence that they discover.

Again this is a lie. You cannot say that based on one mistake - if it
was a mistake. This tooth is not part of the verified evidence fo
evolution. You will not find it in a museum labelled "human ancestor"
but you will find claims we are created without even the slightest
shred of evidence. You cannot demonstrate that your creationist tooth
is genuine can you? . We have pulled your tooth and show it to be
fake as well.

For example, it's
impossible to determine how much hair is on a body of a man or ape that
has been buried for several thousand years.

Isn't it? How do you know this?

However, if a bone from a so
called cave man is found, the artist that paints the picture is the one
that determines how much hair was on the body.

They are usually labelled clearly as an artistic depiction. There is
no intent to deceive. What about your intents to decieve? A professor
who dismisses a whole evolutionary sequence in the Grand Canyon
because there has been a catastrophic change in environment for
example.

If the artist has on his
"evolution tinted glasses", there will be almost no hair on the caveman's
body since they want it to look as much as possible like a human.

So why did they add hairs? Maybe because they realised that our
ancestors had not the brain power then to make themselves clothes
and needed hair to keep warm? Still I know and you know that an
artistic drawing is only meant to be conceptual and that they usually
lbel them as such. So once again you are lying by presenting just
a half-truth.
Sorry but you are addressing the wrong people if you
want to pass off half-truths or blatent lies in order to discredit
scientific knowledge and replace it with unevidenced belief. Is
your creation science so weak that it only stands upon lies?

Les,
Interesting post. My point related to the artistic drawings was that they
are usually drawn based upon how the evolutionary scientists interpret the
evidence. If they have on their "evolution tinted glasses" instead of
"unbiasd scientist tinted glasses" they could end up with a painting that
is NOT compatable with the evidence.
According to the story (I seem to recall that he was called "montana
man"), the tooth that the painting was based on came from a species of pig
that has been extinct for thousands of years. The scientists stated that
the teeth of those species of pig are very similar to human teeth. That's
the reason the error was made. Evolutionists should be given the credit
for figuring out that there was never a montana man.

Do you discuss "gravity tinted glasses" when considering how the Moon
moves? I know you don't like it, but evolution is fully accepted
science, supported by millions of pieces of evidence from multiple
independent lines. It has been tested over and over for 150 years and
has emerged strong and better. It is lack of bias that leads
scientists to accepting evidence. You admit on occasion that it is
your religious bias that steers you from evolution.

According to the story (I seem to recall that he was called "montana
man"),

Nebraska Man, I have pointed this out several times and given you
on-line references.

the tooth that the painting was based on came from a species of pig
that has been extinct for thousands of years.

Pigs teeth do happen to look like human teeth.

The scientists stated that
the teeth of those species of pig are very similar to human teeth. That's

Yep. And someday you will figure out that the famous picture was for a
magazine. And then you will figure out that the creationist sites that
get this wrong are lying to you. Do you support religious leaders who
lie?

Les,
You missed the point. The evolutionist was trying to make the evidence (tooth)
fit into evolution theory. The painting of the cave man is further proof
that the evolutionist mis-interpreted the evidence due to his evolution
tinted glasses glasses. That's NOT the way that scientists are suppose to
deal with evidence. I used the story as an example of how evolutionists
treat almost all of the evidence that they discover. For example, it's
impossible to determine how much hair is on a body of a man or ape that
has been buried for several thousand years. However, if a bone from a so
called cave man is found, the artist that paints the picture is the one
that determines how much hair was on the body. If the artist has on his
"evolution tinted glasses", there will be almost no hair on the caveman's
body since they want it to look as much as possible like a human.

There is no limit to the amount of misrepresentation that you will
engage in is there. You don't even know what this is called, but you
insist that the whole thing was intentional, not a mistake, but when you
have the lies of the ICR pointed out to you, you ignore them. What would
Jesus say? Nevermind, we already know, He didn't like pharisaical
behavior, false self-righteousness, and those who used the temple to
make money.

The painting was done for a popular press magazine, not for any

best, wrong. If you continue to spread falsehoods you will bear false
witness. http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/a_nebraska.html

That's NOT the way that scientists are suppose to
deal with evidence.

Of course it is. The first thing you do is try to fit things in. If
they don't fit, then you try something else. Most evidence is boring.
As they say, if you hear a clip clop on your street think horses, not
zebras.

I used the story as an example of how evolutionists
treat almost all of the evidence that they discover.

And you did not bother to find out if the story was correct, did you?
You read something in a creationist book and took it as, well, gospel.

For example, it's
impossible to determine how much hair is on a body of a man or ape that
has been buried for several thousand years.

But you can make reasonable estimates based on other evidence. Mammals
have hair, for example, and you can tell it is a mammals from the
bones.

However, if a bone from a so
called cave man is found, the artist that paints the picture is the one
that determines how much hair was on the body.

Some day you just might look at real science and not creationist
nonsense. There is a nice display at the American Museum of Natural
History (the New York one) on how they (actual scientists) develop
those drawings. They show you the drawings they do of the skeleton.
They use evidence from bones and similar existent organisms to put on
the muscles. Then they use that and more evidence to make guesses
about the skin. And the actual scientists know that this is a guess
and not actual evidence.

If the artist has on his
"evolution tinted glasses", there will be almost no hair on the caveman's
body since they want it to look as much as possible like a human.

Sort of like how artists have their "gravity tinted glasses" and
assume that things fall down.

Hair only a thousand years is quite possible, hundreds of thousands and
million of years not likely, execpt one recent dinosaur example millions
of years ago had soft tissue and others have had skin patterns preserved.
Apes and other primates, including humans, can be seperated into
categories based on various physical markers. If some of theose markers
should appear in the one or two bones found putting them into a category
is no problem.

It's my guess that if an evolutionist is able to figure what a man would
look like based on a tooth (e.g. montana man)--it's only logical that
evolutionist could determine the exact amount of hairs on a man based on
two or three bones.

It was nebraska man, you were provided this information just recently,
which speaks to your memory. No scientist would make a claim about
primate
hair,btw which is different then fur, based on bones. You are going for a
ridiculous point there. The hair on neb. man was purely the imagination
of
the artist and had no basis in science. You are grasping at desperate

It certainly makes creationism look weak if he has to rely on half
truths and lies to prop it up. It is wholly negative way to proceed.
Instead of trying to discredit evolution he should be about proving
creationism. He has nor even tried.

Les,
Are you the poster that believes that it's possible to tell the amount of
hair on a person or ape that has been buried for over 1000 years? I should
note that I made an error in the post. It was not "montanta man". The
correct name is "Nebraska man". I saw the painting on a website last week
but failed to make a note related to the URL where the painting is
located.

How can I possibly know how hairy an animal will be? What I did say
is the ancestor of man would likely be naked, not having the brain
power to wear clothing, and I know of few land based animals that are
not protected by some kind of covering whether it be fur, feathers,
hair or blubber or whatever. As we are an animal with hair on our
bodies it seems more likely our ancesters were also hairy. Our more
primitive cousin are more hairy than us it so taking these factors
into account it seems likely that our ancestor would be very hairy.
I don't know this, is just surmise on my part but can you see any
flaws in that surmise? Simple common sense I think.
Regarding Nebraska Man. I don't know which particular web site
you used but I found the painting you refer to on this web site
which makes it clear exactly what the painting, as originally
published said:
http://members.cox.net/ardipithecus/evol/lies/lie020.html
Furthermore the Illustrated London News stated in its article that the
“reconstruction is merely the expression of an artist's brilliant
imaginative genius.” This is what actually happened not you
half truth account.
That is what I surmised when you brought this example
up originally. It was imaginative genius by an artist not an
evolutionist. So once again your lies and half truths about
evolution in order to prop up and smokscreen concerning the
total lack of evidence to justify creationism as other than
irrational belief based religion has been clearly exposed.
Thank you for giving me opportunity for batting the ball
clearly out of park. Chalk up another home run to us!
This is fun, this is easy :-)
