The basis of Evolution is that it must exist in a static, infinite universe. However, the universe is actually decellerating, or slowing down, as if it has bounced off of a wall. this means that the universe is non-static, and therefore disproves evolution.
i think God put apes on earth so we see something the way he sees us.
When a person is asleep, he or she cannot feel or care what happens. Would if be okay in your worldview to assassinate someone as long as that person is sleeping? You see, your worldview just cannot make sense of morality. You instinctively that people have more value than plants and even animals, because you know in your heart-of-hearts that people are made in the image of God. You keep repeating the Christian principle of doing unto others as we would have them do unto us. But that principle makes no sense whatsoever in an evolutionary worldview.]
It seems there is no evidence for atheism. No evidence of any sort- scientific or otherwise. It makes little sense for the truth to have no evidence at all to support it. Therefore atheism can't be truth. It has no supporting evidence, nothing at all.
Don't bother protesting you don't need evidence, and defining your beliefs in such a way that does not require any. Truth would have evidence to support it.
G. Edward Griffin narrates his movie World Without Cancer. In it, Griffin marshals the evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease – like scurvy or pellagra – aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modern man's diet. That substance is vitamin B17. In its purified form developed for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile.

If I abandon a Christian worldview, I see no plausible reason - other than purely selfish reasons - to be a Moral person. In fact, [and I know this will be contraversial] but I believe that many of these crimes are strictly due to a lack of the Christian worldview, although, paradoxically I find that many Christians [?] engage is such activities. If Christianity is proven false, do what you wanna do, as long as you come out alive and on top, Who cares... pure Hedonism is championed. Does that answer your question?
God is real. Evelution cannot make us what we are. If evelution was real why are there apes? Wouldn’t they be evolved too? God has no beging and no ending. I know that’s hard for us to belive but that’s ’cause we’re imperfect humans that will die. We don’t go to heaven either. If we were to wouldn’t we be made there?
If you’re wondering yes I’m a Jehovah Witnesse. (No were not a cult. A culd is the KKK)
My contradiction is that burden of proof is not to prove anything.
It is to prove it does not exist; once it is admitted as a belief.
Let me get the crayolas out! Ill draw a picture for ya.
In the Bible; it states God created everything. God is as real to me; as the keyboard I am typing with. I believe in God.
Your choice is to believe otherwise; yet you can not prove that God does not exist; nor the fact that He created everything.
The burden is not on me because I do not have a problem with believing in God.
I do not have to prove anything to you about God.
What else can be said.
The argument is not forcing you to do anything nor am I.
I am stating what I believe in.
I can show you where it is backed up in the Bible.
Yet the genral population of non -believers do not accept this as evidence.
Well I do not accept science's answers as an explanation of how creation come about.
It does explain the study of something existing; but does not explain how it came into existence.
The Bible does.
To say the Bible is a lie; requires proof.
So the burden is not on those that believe in God.
(A question asking what disproves evolution):
Evolution is still a theory it has not been proven right or wrong there is still many questions prior to evolution that don't make sense. DNA and Genes don't fit at all with evoluton because when two come together to make a baby the baby looks EXACTLY like it's parents. Where did the flying birds come from? Where did the fish with gils come from? The land and water? I suppose the dinosaurs came from them too? How did the other monkey get here ( Male/ female)? Also not only do we want to know how everything got here we also want to know how good and evil started? The bible has been proven right. My most favorite scientist Ken Ham toook time to study the Bible and evolution if you don't believe me check below.

Advice Needed: How Do I Coexist with Atheists?
I have been a Christian almost all my life and just recently I've been worshiping more than ever. I consult God with just about everything when I remember to. The thing is, I've taken more notice to the atheists and other non-believers around me. Most of which enjoy making rude comments and ask me questions about the Bible that I find difficult to answer.
Being a Christian, I know one is supposed to pray for those non-believers, and I am truly trying, but they make it difficult for me to even care about their well-being.
Does anyone have suggestions for coexisting with atheists?
Science places their reliance upon facial evidence with abherence to theories of origins, placing their faith in natural phenomenon while rejecting the supernatural. When rejecting God science comes under the dominion of Satan, who is the god of this world, who is a liar and would seek to deceive the very elect.
I too believe in the "Big Bang", for God spoke and "Bang" it happened.
Nothing is a fact if it goes against the Bible. The Bible is fact and absolute truth. Anything deviating from that is false. Adam and Eve were real people and everything the Bible recorded happened.
["Why believe in God? Just be good for goodness sake."]
My counter-question is... Why must [they] bring God into the equation if [they] do not believe in him. I am not convinced of their agnostic/atheistic/other views.
[Re Arizona Governor vetoing discriminatory anti-gay bill.]
I don't have any first hand knowledge of the bill, but I don't think there was any reference to homosexuals in it. I do believe the "anti-homosexual" aspect was created by the leftist machinations in our country.
I grew up reading signs on the doors of businesses that said, "No shirt, No shoes, No service", and other signs that said, "We have the right to refuse service". I'm wondering, in this day and age, if a business owner dare refuse service to anyone for any reason?
The governor of Arizona probably made the right choice with the bill that was reported to be written in a very broad way that could lead to all sorts of difficulty. But I do think a business owner should have the right to refuse service as they choose, without any regard to religious beliefs, just as I think I have the right to avoid restaurants where smoking is still allowed. It's about personal liberty.
[Except you are ignoring the fact that anyone, gay or straight, can contract and die of an STD. The fact is, a monogamous gay couple have exactly the same chance of dieing from an STD as a monogamous straight couple. So, clearly that is not an argument against homosexuality.]
Unfortunately, homosexuals usually have multiple partners
prior to settling down with one.
Irishcitizen2013: You are not 'gay'. You have bought the lie which sanitises that which is homosexuality: perversion. You are not 'gay'. In fact I doubt you are happy at all, in your current condition. You are a poof, otherwise known as a "horse's hoof", or poofter; pure and simple (before the sanitisation of your perversion through 'political correctness'). We are loving you by informing you of your error. You are wrong. There is nothing normal about your sexual behaviour (so-called 'orientation') whatsoever. We are loving you by informing you that there is something drastically wrong inside of you. Perhaps a homosexual is called a 'poof' because that is exactly what is going to happen to you if you die in your current condition: God is going to make you go 'poof' into absolute nothingness forever. You have a chance to get it right before you die, before it is too late. We don't want you to perish in that way. Please, heed our loving plea to abandon such reckless rebellion against God Almighty. We we all most assuredly get our just desserts. God bless.
Homosexuality ought not be allowed to exist in our country. It should be banned and punished by law, as it used to be a century ago. In many countries it is still a capital offense, as it was in Old Testament Israel. Lesbians and gays ought not be permitted to marry, let alone pastor churches. I am so glad that God's Word and every Bible-preaching Christian will be vindicated in eternity. The days of gay-rights are numbered. Job 20:4-5, “Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth, That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?” If I were a king, I'd ban homosexuality! I'd ban abortion! I'd ban gossip! I'd ban booze! I'd ban immodest dress! I'd eradicate television and the internet from existence!
Since ALL Atheists accept, defend and promote evolution fanatically, evolution says the Bible (Word of God) is false. Any Christian who agrees with Atheists is deluded and rightfully going to Hell.
Any Christian who denies the concept of design as existing in nature is rightfully going to Hell. Evolution says the concept of design does not exist in nature. Any Christian who agrees with Atheists is a deluded liar, rightfully going to Hell.
The terms “committed relationship” and homosexual are diametrically opposed, too. The AVERAGE homosexual man claims to have had sex with over 500 partners.
"Abortion, environmentalism, AIDS, pornography, drug abuse, and homosexual activism have fragmented and polarized our communities."
(Later)
"It is now difficult to keep track of the vast array of publicly endorsed and institutionally supported aberrations—from homosexuality and pedophilia to sadomasochism and necrophilia."
The New York State government recently legalized gay marriage.
Male homosexuality is about as unhealthy as heroin usage. Nevertheless, our state government has decided to celebrate it, apparently for no other reason than to demonstrate their sympathy for a minority group and to emphasize their rejection of the Bible, which prohibits sodomy. If people die, that's just collateral damage.
Great work guys. This may lower costs for Social Security and Medicare, but then don't forget about the higher health care costs of male homosexuals.
The fact that the large part of those who do not believe in the evolution belief argument are not scientists or perhaps college educated is also simply an example of the free mind not overtly influenced and molded by rote textbook learning.
Your funny.
You'll be even funnier burning in hell with Satin's dick up your ass.
Homosexuality is a preference which causes far more harm and disunity in society than it NEEDS to. What's more, and this is the important reason of why I think it's logical to phase it out at birth if we can, it ADDS nothing. There is nothing that anyone, by the simple virtue of being homosexual, adds to society, themselves or to others. All it is is sexual preference, the world will NOT become a bland uniform 1984-type scenario by making this decision. That's just ludicrous.
evolution would be a mindless bolder of chance and time rolling forward produsing 7 legged dogs with 3 heads and 300 pound spiders with fish fins and the chain from ape to man would still be very visible in our world.
you would have groups fighting for the rights of those who dont walk upright.
and their would be a randimity of all organisms ..no order at all just a bunch of multi celled water protoplasms that could for all practical porposes be called freaks.also their would not be a concern for beauty from a mindless rollercoaster of chance
[This is a response to firefighter Captain Andi Mooneyham's application for partner benefits for her legally married wife.]
Dear Captain Mooneyham:
I agree with the decision of the board to refuse to grant and extend benefits to lesbians and homosexuals.
Missouri has a constitutional provision and a state statute providing that marriage is between one man and one woman which has been the law since time and memorial in our world's history.
I'm tired of promo attempting to cram homosexuality and lesbians down our throats.
You have followed the law and I congratulate you.
Now-back to fighting fires.
Sincerely yours,

So in a thread here in The Political Madness page I had someone question my right to be an American since I am a sovereign citizen. He for some reason thinks that I am denied my American Pride when I became a Sovereign Citizen. When in fact I believe I have embraced it. I have shut out public civil and government authority and embraced The Constitution and my Amendment Rights in a way I never could have done as an American Citizen. Yet I believe vice versa. I believe that I would not have the freedoms I have today had I not denounced my American citizenship. I believe that according to the constitution and Amendment rights that I am more American now that ever before.
You decide. I no longer live by public local state or government laws. But English Common Law.
The American way is believing in The Constitution, you Amendment rights, hope peace and happiness. You can believe in something with out it actually working. Well since I became a Sovereign Citizen these documents finally work for me.
So what does being a Sovereign Citizen actually entail...
I do not pay any taxes what so ever since I am a sovereign citizen.
But that does not mean I does not have American pride. It just means that I protect myself from the corrupt American Government the best I can.
I protect myself from The bankers stealing my money.
It means I dont have to pay traffic tickets or be documented as a cocky mamy bull# licensed driver.
It means that you cant sue me, the government cant sue me.
It means that THE BANKERS AND TPTB HAVE PAYED OFF MY DEBTS by means of debt bonds.
It means that I can walk into any bank I want and ask for these bonds and refusal means that that bank would have do deal with stacks of paperwork and the American court system.
It means that no one man or court can decide my fate.
It also means that I am part of an "extremist anti-government group" according to the FBI. Which I am perfectly happy with as long as I AM A FREE MAN.
It means that I can smoke my mary jane and big brother cant do # about it.
It means that I can grow my mary jane and big brother cant do # about it.
It means that I have disconnected myself from the public civil government and bull# reaches of the TPTB.
It means although I still pay, that I dont have to pay my mortgage and no body can do # about it.
And I am surprised that all ATS members have not done this.
It means that I truly I have my civil liberties I have my civil rights given to me by my birth as a human not as an American.
IT MEANS THAT I AM A REAL AMERICAN AND HAVE THE RIGHTS OF LIFE AND LIBERTY FREEDOM HAPPINESS AND THE TRUE AMERICAN WAY AS IT IS DESCRIBED IN THE CONSTITUTION AND THE AMERICAN AMENDMENT RIGHTS THAT WERE GIVEN TO ME AS A BIRTH RIGHT. Even if I am no longer an American citizen I am more free than probably everyone on this damn site.
iT MEANS THAT YOU DONT AND THAT YOU ARE NO AMERICAN CITIZEN BUT RATHER AND AMERICAN CAPTIVE.
Nuff said... DONE.
Get a lawer
get a loan to pay that lawer
Then become a sovereign citizen
Become an independent
Be free of the corrupt American government.
Be prosperous happy and truly embrace The Constitution and Amendment rights by reject the American Government out of your life.
This is a rather harsh statement! But I have come to realize a few things that have caused me to conclude that atheists in general (not all) have some effing stupid opinions.
Our Earth, the only one known so far to harbor real life forms like us human beings, is also the only one to harbor gravity. Without gravity we would be floating all around space. I do not think this is an accident. We were meant to habitate this earth, and also meant to stay put on this earth, which I think is the reason God implemented the use of Gravity.
All planets are in essence, suspended, in mid air. There is nothing technically holding us up. This is probably caused by magnetic poles. I do not think this is an accident. We also rotate around the sun which provides us with most of our basic needs we have become used to today.
I honestly do not understand how an atheist or non believer can believe that our existence is by chance. We are complex beings living in a compex world. A complex world that has only been explained to us by geinus scientists who have attempted to understand this complexity that surrounds us. Scientists cannot disprove God or any theory pertaining to him. They seek out to determine simple ways of how our existence came to be. EVOLUTION: A ****in flop..Sorry to who believes in this and the science mumbo jumbo that comes along with it.. we did not evolce from a single cell that developed into a million other complex cells that evenutally led us to evolve from apes. If so, I would surely expect apes to be continually evolving.
The Big Bang theory: this is an idiotic opinion and explanation of our existence. How on earth could our existence come to be from some big cosmic belch in the universe that somehow created all of this order? And besides that WHO created the first molecular cell that could cause such a belch? In our society we are generally used to the concept of architecht and constructor. We have nothing in existence that was not built. Why do people insist that our entire existence and universe is based upon a principle of no designer? That is completely idiotic, and this is why I think most atheists are effing idiots!!
Let’s face the fact that being a homosexual is a disease of the mind. Not unlike a rapist, murderer, child molester, or necrophilia. These are all illnesses of the mind.
So no, I will never accept laws nor people of this kind. To me they are all grouped together. Homos are sic, so if they feel accepted they now want the laws to allow more of their sick behavior. No Sir! No no no. As a father with a son I am———done, fags, sick fu..s!
Students do not do experiments to prove evolution. They are indoctrinated by a teacher or professor who simply 'tells' them that evolution is how it all happened. Its a tale spun in a classroom, similar to the fairy tales one was taught in kindergarten and first grade.
How can man be descending and evolving at the same time? Which is it?It appears that Darwin can't make a statment without contradicting himself.
I'm not saying there won't be a struggle, but if God can change a drug addict or a drunkard, He can change a homosexual. Practicing homosexuals are NOT repentant, they're gonna burn.
[In a thread about the bad state of the economy]
This is all a huge liberal LIE!! As usual, we're told by the media that times are terrible and things are bad and that we can't even feed our families during an election when a God-Fearing candidate is in office. If Ted Kennedy was the President, we'd be told that everything is fine. Believe that! You all saw that when Clinton was president.
This causes those with weak faith to vote for the Sin-Endorsing candidate to "improve the economy." I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the homosexual lobby was behind the house prices dropping and gas prices raising. That way, they can get Obama in the White House and get Homosexuals the right to get married.
Given the many diseases associated with homosexuality, the Bible prohibition against homosexuality is quite arguably one of the many examples where the Bible exhibited knowledge that was ahead of its time.
Yes, I would [kill an infant if God asked]. I'm not saying it would be easy, but I would. Everybody is unholy. Even the infants.
So why don't you think Darwin was hallucinating on the Galapagos Islands?
You think John hallucinated on the Island of Patmos, so why not Darwin? I wasn't there, you weren't there. All we have is a book.
I'm sure mushrooms were plentiful. ^_^
[Quoted on PFLAG: An email sent in response to a constituent’s letter about the Equal Housing and Employment Act currently being considered by the Ohio legislature to protect the rights of LGBTs in Ohio.]
[T]his is a dangerous and misguided bill. The bill is not really about people being denied rights to basic needs, but it is about promoting acceptance of an immoral lifestyle. As much as some people would have us to believe otherwise, this country was founded on Christian principles. One of those long honored principles is the tradition of holy matrimony. One man and one woman joined together in a union that goes as far back as Adam and Eve. As our society has gotten further from that standard (not just homosexuality, but easy divorce, cheating on a spouse, etc.) we see a continued collapse of the basic building block of society the family unit. As that traditional family erodes, we see more sexually transmitted diseases, kids without parents, heartbroken people and I believe a host of mental and physical illnesses. . . . rest assured I can not support a bill in any way promotes or encourages the homosexual lifestyle.
If a husband expresses his desire for sexual intercourse with his wife, and asks her to fulfill his need, then she should fulfill her husband's desire, and she should not refuse him or deprive him of his need (unless of course if she is undergoing her monthly menstruation period or is down with illness.
Islam encourages and insists on chastity and fidelity. Islam prohibits and condemn illicit sexual relations, extra-maritial affairs, fornication, adultery, prostitution, pornography and promiscuity. It is for this reason that a wife is bound to fulfill her husband's sexual desires so as to prevent him form straying.
Many states in the early years of our country had requirements that anyone holding office had to be a Christian. It wasn't until the courts started reading into the Constitution things that it does not say that this changed, thus leaving us in the mess we are in today...
Specifically, as these doctors were not willing to help the homosexual become pregnant (not just refusing to treat her in general), and modern research would justify them on this issue on multiple fronts.
http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2004/apr/040428c.html
Again, while I am against homosexuality primarily based on valid religious reasons, I'm not advocating homophobia like you were spewing earlier. I'm simply saying that these doctors shouldn't be forced by law to do something when that something has so much going against it. The fact that you can't understand the difference is due to your social stigma, not mine. I only made this post as a last attempt to get you to see reason here, but if your previous posts are any indication it's a wasted effort. Go ahead and get in the last word, because I'm not going to respond to you anymore.
You are full of shit because Hitler had to exterminate the jews because the jews were about ready to take over Germany and make it a communist country, and the jews would have slaughter every innocent aryan Germans for their money because you people are the most greadiest people on the face of this planet. Even Moses would have agreed with me. I am half German and half Persian. In otherwords, I am half Nazi and half Shitte Muslim, and we will someday kick your fucking ass.Prepare for a racial holy war.
"Homosexuals – and IV drug users – brought AIDS on themselves, and I have only a little sympathy for them. They fall in the same category as winners of Darwin Awards."
1. We have known since 1984 how AIDS is transmitted. The people who caught it prior to 1984 are dead. If people get AIDS from sex or sharing needles, they are responsible for their own condition.
2. There is a part of the Homosexual subculture that fetishizes the deliberate infecting of one's self and others with HIV.
It's quite a shame more people don't believe in Creation. Still, no one has answered how the creatures got the brain to think to evolve. They couldn't evolve it, because without a brain, they couldn't think to evolve it.
I'm not a movie prude; we check out many kinds of movies. And I expect most anything coming out of Hollywood, with any rating, to include something contrary to my values. I let most of it roll off my back. But with Happy Feet, I didn't expect my conservative Christian family to be assaulted with what we all recognized as a anti-Christian screed, with open mockery of traditional Christian preaching against values and lifestyles contrary to church teachings. It was abundantly clear that Happy Feet substituted homosexuality with dancing as the "different" lifestyle that was the unfair target of an Inquisition on ice. It was Dirty Dancing and Footloose all over again, but with the rhetoric and situation developed to make religious criticism of homosexuality counter to everything good and pleasing.
[On why masturbation is a sin...]
The Bible clearly teaches homosexuality is a sin. The reason homosexuality is a sin is because God created sex between a man and a woman. Since man was not intended to give sexual pleasure to a another man, it is sin. But it is sin for a man to give sexual pleasure to another man, why would it be acceptable for a man to give sexual pleasure to himself?
Please excuse my graphical illustration here, but I think it is needed to make a point. Why would it be wrong for a man to take his hand and give me sexual pleasure with his hand, and yet it be OK for me to use my own hand to give myself sexual pleasure??? In both cases, the hand that is giving me sexual pleasure would be a man's hand!
[aCultureWarrior has a bit of a meltdown and discusses me and my partner]

Wait, I forgot something:
'and and and I'm pro choice too!'
That being said, I'm certain that the drag queen homosexual who is engaged to a man that plans on having genital mutilation surgery to become a woman, is sitting back in his pantyhose and hi heels smiling knowing that there are Christians out there that believe he has some kind of "right" to teach America's children, to work in daycare facilities, or to mentor youth in the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, or the rest of the long list of youth mentor organizations that have allowed openly (i.e. proud and unrepentant) homosexuals into their organizations.
TAKE ACTION:
1) Call or write Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) [202-224-2854; Chicago 312-886-3506; online Comment Form HERE] and urge him to stop rewarding anti-Christian bigotry. Ask him to return this “Freedom Award” from the hateful anti-Christian homosexual group, Equality Illinois–which in 2012 launched a failed pressure campaign to kick Chick-fil-A restaurants out of Illinois.
2) Call or write the Republican National Committee [Contact Form HERE] and its Chairman, Reince Priebus [202-863-8500; choose ext. "1"], and urge them to stand firm against the aggressive Homosexual Lobby, which is targeting Christian leaders and businesses like Chick-fil-A for demonization. Tell Priebus that when Republicans like Sen. Mark Kirk embrace Democratic-type social liberalism, it only deflates the pro-family GOP grassroots. Lastly, urge Priebus to PUBLICLY oppose ENDA, the radical Employment Non-Discrimination Act. Thank Chairman Priebus for being publicly pro-life–but urge him also to make the case against “Big Gay Government” (e.g., ENDA)–and Obama’s push to nationalize “same-sex marriage”–as part of the RNC’s regular public Talking Points.
I don't understand why lots of people nowadays like mocking Jesus..
Listen..
Jesus was born before us more than 2000 years ago.
We never see Jesus, or even know him personally but we heard his existence from the bible and Jews' history.
But what is the benefit for us if we're mocking him because we do not accept his teaching?
God never pushes you to believe him, he gives you free will.
When some true christians or pastors commit sins, it's not always God's fault! Pastors/Christians are humans, they can make a mistake.
Satan influences a lot of people from believing God, Satan knows jesus more than us, he was ex-angel before the fallen, I know why some of us don't believe in supernatural things because we cannot see the spirits around us and we trap in physical body.
Also remember life is very short, someday we will see the real Jesus.
[Replying to "You say no Christian would advocate violence against homosexuals...and yet, violence still occurs against homosexuals, and the perpetrators often explain their actions in biblical terms"]
It's an excuse they use to justify what they do. Many atheists know the Bible anyways.
