By saying this you are denying the omnipotence of God......His unlimited power. God created the heaven and the earth and all that dwell therein. He chose for the chromosomes to be placed as they are within man and within monkeys. Many scientists have studied themselves out of a belief in God. They have laid aside the natural knowledge of God for the un-natural knowledge of the world and its humanistic systems.

"By saying this you are denying the omnipotence of God......His unlimited power. So what if the creature whose existence I deny happens to be all-powerful and a Creator of Worlds? Does that make him any more real?
He chose for the chromosomes to be placed as they are within man and within monkeys.
...and the similarity of chimps and human DNA is just to test our faith (f*** with our minds) :P

That's probably true, but the rest of us see it as a good thing.
"By saying this you are denying the omnipotence of God......His unlimited power."
Sure. I'll say whatever is necessary to deny the omnipotence of your imaginary deity.
"God created the heaven and the earth and all that dwell therein."
Instead of parrotting the same feeble claims all the time, why don't you religious folks simply provide credible evidence that God exists, that heaven exists and that God created heaven, earth or anything at all.
"He chose for the chromosomes to be placed as they are within man and within monkeys."
While you're at it, prove that, too.
"Many scientists have studied themselves out of a belief in God."
Indeed. Often, as one increases his/her knowledge of the real world, they can leave their religious delusions behind.
"They have laid aside the natural knowledge of God for the un-natural knowledge of the world and its humanistic systems."
No, Mrs.D., back up the bus. There is nothing "un-natural" in learning about the natural world. What is un-natural is belief in something for which there is no supporting evidence.
"Had man continued in the knowledge of God the theory of evolution would not exist."
Well then, it's a damn good thing some few persons were able to get past the God delusion and to formulate the ToE. Modern medicine and genetics rely upon the ToE.
God created the heaven and the earth and all that dwell therein.
No. God is imaginary.
He chose for the chromosomes to be placed as they are within man and within monkeys.
Or they got there by a process called natural selection.

They are all smarter than you are.
They have laid aside the natural knowledge of God for the un-natural knowledge of the world and its humanistic systems.
No one believes in your God without being first taught about Him by your evangelists. Why would you assert that such a belief is natural?

Big fan of the Dark Ages, I see.
Mrs. Debbie, I have a fun little fact to tell you. Christianity and all this God-love it brings with it did more to ruin medical science than anything else. Quite literally. The Greeks had the ability to perform cataract correction surgery with an extraordinary level of successes. But that was lost because of Christianity. Christianity is responsible for the sorry state medicine is in.
Yeah, and we'd all be wiping our butts with leaves and dying of preventable diseases. Oh, glorious dark ages, truly the world was a better place!
Had man continued in the knowledge of God the theory of evolution would not exist.
That's because we'd still be living in primitive huts, bashing each other over the head with clubs, and soiling ourselves in fear whenever we saw a comet or an eclipse. Fortunately for the human race, most of us are not content to wallow in ignorance and superstition.
Just too easy but I can't resist. . .
Also, if man had continued in the "knowledge of God" we would also be continuing the Dark Ages.
And, BTW, how do you know that it's okay with God that you're on a computer? Surely you at least asked your husband's permission first, right?
And you wouldn´t use this computer or live up to 40, for that matter, so you´d never say this nonsense. And by the way, the cromosomes of the monkeys, and of the any other animal, for that matter, are part of the cells, not "within" IDIOT, whose knowledge wouldn´t be available to you IN THE FIRST PLACE, had your stupid theory followed.
Oooh, be careful where you go with that line of argument, Mrs. Debbie. If your god is truly omnipotent and micromanages his creation as you suggest, he's going to have to carry the can for an awful lot of very bad stuff. Sure you want to go there?
Good idea Debbie, let's bring back those "Dark Ages". Women were chattel, men were brutal, education was non-existent for most, science was forbidden, and the church was paramount. Damn sounds like you guys at teens-4-Christ now!
Yeah, neither would helio-centrisim, the space program, electricity, running water, innoculations, ect...
unlimited power needs to rest and can only make a few things a day, can't make flawless creations to save his life, gets angry despite supposedly not being powerless, and despite supposedly knowing what's gonna happen (and so wouldn't get angry, not to mention rage isn't exactly virtuous)...
And wouldn't the bible talk about chromosomes and all sorts of scientific tidbits its tried to drown/kill/burn/fight against over the ages just because they didn't fit it (what with them not being in there), if god had made'em?
That's quite right though. if we were all faithful and blind we wouldn't have comprehensive understanding of things like evolution. We'd all lack the intellectual curiosity to ask ourselves "how" or "why", just like you. I'm sure you think that's great, being dumb as dirt.
We'd also be living in dirt and clay under tyranical rulers and their clerical enablers, and wouldn't have things like the internet since knowledge is sin.
"Had man continued in the knowledge of God the theory of evolution would not exist."
You are right, but what's your point? Are you just sore because some scientists actually started thinking for themselves, and you haven't managed to catch up yet?
Not only would evolution not exist, but neither would electrical appliances, cars, modern medicine, airplanes, etc.
I do deny the omnipotence of a god, prove me otherwise. You also claim that your god is a male. Interesting that he would have a gender when he is the only one. Does he just jerk-off to the mirror before him?
What is 'un-natural', ewe big sheep, is that old unproven stories trump reality. Un-natural, is purposely blinding oneself to truth, to accept fantasy. It is believing in a comfortable lie, as opposed to facts.
Had not religion stomped out science for so many centuries, we might've reached a point in human history where religion could've gone the way of medical bloodletting and leaches.
"Had man continued in the knowledge of God the theory of evolution would not exist."
And had man continued in 'the nowledge of God' you'd still be living in a cave. In fact, you probably wouldn't be alive at all, having died during or shortly after your birth. Give it up, Mrs Debbie - science gave your God's lazy ass a good kicking centuries ago.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
