Linda, as I said in my earlier post, one must brush aside the obvious fables that often cloud the underlying truth. So the turtle story? yeah um ok, if you wanna believe I find that logical, you're welcome to believe that. Perhaps it makes your arguments seem more credible in comparison?

I find the big bang just as illogical. As though an explosion could conceivably have means of containing the materials for life. Have we observed this? Let me know if you know of any outcomes from an explosion that has produced anything other than chaos! Rather instead complexity, purpose and order.



What it boils down to Linda ongoing claims of "evidence". Again you are not talking of solid evidence, but rather ideas and ideas that come from fallible people that were not there, whose theories are subject to scrutiny and change. If this was an undeniable scientific fact, we would not be able to argue about it, because as more evidence comes to light, the arguments are silenced. Why do the arguments against evolution seem to be growing rather than being silenced by fact? Why are more people questioning this theory Linda if there is undeniable scientific proof? in other words, there isn't.

I have a theory too. I believe that there was power, life/intellect behind all of this. You seem to believe that organic matter somehow existed, containing the information for all life to evolve. Yet you can never really tell me where it came from and how. This is not evidence Linda. It's a theory yes. I cannot give you evidence for a Creator in a manner you would ever be satisfied with, because my observation of the world around me is through the eyes of faith, as well as what I feel is logical and crystal clear (to me) and added to this, personal supernatural experiences. The creator hides Himself (for the most part), but the evidence of Him (I believe) is all around us and as the bible says "they are without excuse".

Sure you are free to poo poo the idea of a living God who created the universe / solar system in all it's balance and wonder, and instead put it down to inexplicable events like a big bang, and organic matter etc, or whatever else the evolutionary scientists come up with. I see a watch or a computer and logic tells me it has a designer / programmer. I see similar in nature itself. I see also that humans imitate nature in his/her own designs, be it pictures, aeroplanes, etc.

I think the signature of design is contained within each and every human beings original DNA code. I do not believe any of this can be so readily explained away by big bangs, promordial soups etc. Though you can give it a good try because scientists always think that so long as they exclude intelligent design, that they're being "logical" and "scientific".

It doesn't work that way. I think the way a person interprets the evidence also has a huge impact on what we're being "told". You can interpret a fossil anyway you like, but the only thing you can definitely say about it is "it died". Apart from that, it's up for interpretation and bias for the most part. And there's plenty of it.
