How do Creationists explain eclipses? There is no evidence that we can see at any given moment (we, the people without telescopes), and we only know about them because of scientists - who have developed a consensus on the motion of the planets.
Let's put Evolution aside. How can scientists make accurate predictions of eclipses, yet, Creationists claim we can't use the regularity of nature to posit evolution?

Post #51That cannot be you point because if that was your point, you wouldn't be saying we are siphoning things out.sizzle-d wrote:That's my point.
It's nothing like that, it cannot be anything like that because there are no such thing as Z. There are also nothing that has no Y features. Such concepts is incoherent under materialism. It's like accusing mathematicians of ignoring square circles.It's more like:
Is X something we can see/touch?
If X is something we can see/touch:
[Does X have Y natural features and Z supernatural features?
If X has Y features and no Z features then there is no siphoning.
If X has Y features and Z features then Z features are siphoned out.]
If X is not something we can see/touch:
[X has Z features and no Y features.
X is ignored.]
Does it make sense to accuse people of ignoring impossible shape?
Is X possible shape?
If X is a possible shape:
[Does X have Y logical feature and Z circular straght edges?
If X has Y features and no Z features then there is no siphoning.
If X has Y features and Z features then Z features are siphoned out.]
If X is a square circle:
[X has Z features and no Y features. X is ignored.]
Becuase that's what you are really saying. How close minded are we to siphon square circles out of mathematics.

omg....
They came from a common ancestor.
Evolution is change OVER TIME. It's not magic like when god created EVERYTHING is <7 days.
What doesn't exist? A reality of god outside your imagination.
Wha....?
How do I know this?
I can point to actual fossil evidence as proof of evidence.
You can point to a book, written by imperfect men, to 'prove' your god.
I can give you evidence you can hold in your hands to show the story of evolution. You can believe whatever you want, but when you die and anxious await a glorious redemption of a savior in a existance where there is no redeemer, you will finally see the truth. Fortunately, time will continue and that may give you enough time to understand. Maybe.
You can not give me anything of god that I can hold in my hands.
Your god is in you imagination - I think South Park called it Imaginationland
If I want to see your god, I'll go there. If you want to see the truth....wait a minute - never mind. You're content in the world of myth and magic.

I sincerely don't care about YOUR opinion that has anything to do with proof. You can talk about evolution but it may be something else to you so it's YOUR opinion.

Evolution: A perfect sci-fi story backed up by a science circle of ignoring that which it can't explain.

Didn't you say scientists are materialists and that they only consider things that can be explained naturally?

Sometimes people can't deal with reality and create their own. That's fine, so long as they don't visit it on others OR look down their noses at others who refuse to live in this made-up reality
That goes without saying.....I sincerely don't care about...anything to do with proof.

Let's be honest, 2 out of 3 is pretty good for you.Animals adapt, they NEVER evolve.
If bacteria is always bacteria then how do you explain that sci-fi story of evolution.

The quoting was done so correctly and in keeping with the same theme.
Don't like it? Seems an issue for you to work through.
Personal attack noted, though it doesn't change the fact as I stated it.
