Best one sentence summation of how I feel, ever.

You obviously have never read the Origin of Species. Just about every passage begins with "If my theory be true" where he outlines certain criteria which has to be true in order for evolution to be possible. Many of these criteria have since been disproved which according to Darwin himself destroys his entire theory.

If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down.

I realized I'm being trolled, but the ignorance at the heart of these statements is a caricature of the ignorance at the heart of all religion. The concept of faith is baffling. Faith is belief not just in the absence of evidence, but despite evidence to the contrary. This topic is deeply personal to me. As a scientist, I carry the legacy of a group continuously persecuted for MY beliefs, built from evidence past and evolving from evidence to come. This persecution has done nothing but hamper scientific progress and thus the technology that inevitably results.

We've moved beyond simply studying the biological world. Scientists of the last century learned how to exploit or conquer complex biological systems, resulting in cheaper and more abundant food and reducing the threat from many of the most terrifying diseases. Scientists of this century are learning how to BUILD biology, and the consequences of these achievements will likely exceed any speculation I might offer.

Faith is synonymous with intentional ignorance, and intentional ignorance wastes the very thing that makes our species special on this planet.

If you seriously think I'm trolling, please fucking kill yourself. I've done nothing but completely shit on all of your arguments. Nobody has ever seen evolution from one species to another occur. It's not fucking science you god damn delusional fucking moron. How the fuck can something that cannot be seen, tested, experimentally observed, possibly be science? Bacteria becoming more bacteria isn't evolution dumb fuck. You speak of faith and yet evolution takes more faith to believe in than God ever could. "Billion and billions of years" herp fucking derp. Just add "billions of years" to anything we can't actually explain. So fucking dumb it's ridiculous.

*sigh* ^^ that is the problem with faith. You can't even begin to entertain the thought that maybe you are wrong. Instead you parrot sad, overused talking points that have ALL been ripped to shreds over and over again. Grow the fuck up and use some critical thinking. Oh wait, that's what your people say "is dangerous." LOL

[Tenlaar]

For real guys, don't do something stupid and add "billions of years."

Everybody knows the real answer is to add "invisible man in the sky that isn't really the sky but is a metaphorical sky."

Oh my god. Block paragraph psuedoscience gibberish everywhere.

a flying chair

proof that god exists imo

[Csihar]

Illusionz, for the sake of argument lets assume you're right and a supernatural being brought everything into existence. How do you go about assigning any attributes to this "god" and how did you come to the conclusion that it's Jehovah?

[DrKvothe]

Probably some delusional retarded bullshit about feeling the saving grace of God after he shamefully wipes splooge from his face.

[Abner]

Whether or not you believe in God it takes little more than basic investigation and common sense to figure out that Darwinian Evolution is a Religion and not a science.
