Perhaps he isn't the only insane person to be regarded as a prophet... Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass. Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. ... There is a plethora evidence for evolution, and there is absolutely none for intelligent design. To put them on the same level is really an insult to the work of many scientists, and a slap in the face to how their discoveries and technology assist you today. The very monitor you to read this on is made from the same knowledge that says the world is billions of years old. To be honest, you say USA-Intelligent Design and it scares me that people in my own country would be so harmful to progress. I've seen it in my travels abroad, specifically the Middle East where many Muslims are happy to accept the technology that comes from the West but reject the very science behind it, which can only produce a society of thoughtless individuals who are able to reproduce what they have been told but are unable to understand and further advance it. |
Are these quotes from the Bible, from which you have removed all context, somehow supposed to support your position? You don't even explain where in the Bible they are from, or by whom they are written, or under what circumstances. Fail.
"The very monitor you use to read this on is made from the same knowledge that says the world is billions of years old." I never said that it wasn't. I'm an Old Earth Creationist, but you didn't care enough to ask and wrongly assumed otherwise. Fail.
Your comment involving Muslims is puzzling. I am not Muslim. Am I supposed to account for them or something, just because I believe that an intelligent creator exists? The lumping together of different groups of theists (and I use that term loosely here) is both ignorant and unfounded. Fail.
"There is a plethora of evidence for evolution, and there is absolutely none for intelligent design." You have made it clear that you aren't interested in healthy debate. It's easy to tell by your word usage following that sentence that you refuse to be convinced to the contrary, regardless of what anyone really says to you. That being said, I will save myself the trouble of continuing this debate. Good job.
