The situation was hard but I couldnt run from it
I had to understand even though I didnt get it
When I look back at my life
To all the struggles and the strive
That's when I realised

I thank God for his blessings cause all of em are very evident
Took me from the dirt now I'm in my element

@Jeffrey Kaufmann "how would the body of a fish know how to construct a lung?"
That's not how evolution works, and is one of the most significant roadblocks to understanding what evolution actually says. You've bee programmed by disingenuous parties to repeat talking points rather than to objectively and non-partially consider the evidence and its ramifications.
Evolution is a suite of processes for how life adapts over time. There is nothing in that idea that disproves that God might exist. God can create life any way He likes, can He not, including by evolution, which is all we have observable, direct evidence for.

"What I don't get is how can a creature which breathes thru water go on land and breathe thru Air?"
That's because it didn't. You're thinking that a specific animal "got it in its head" to flop up onto the mud or beach and "decide" to start breathing air. Instead, a community of animals found a selective advantage to life in the shallows, possibly to evade predation, and spent incrementally greater time part in and part out of the water, and the descendants that had the ability to breathe in both water and air had a major fitness advantage.

Furthermore, liquid breathing has been experimented with for over a century. It was featured in the film, The Abyss. Imagine, if you will, that successive generations practiced liquid breathing regularly. What would you predict would happen to those descendants?

Some would become better adapted to it. But to be fixed on the population, those individuals with an improved ability to liquid breathe would also need a greater reproductive fitness, which with a lab we can control. To be practical as an experiment, you need an animal with a short generation span and short juvenile phase.



Psalm1Tree

I have seen a clip of Ken Miller, on the Colbert show, where he says that as a Roman Catholic he believes "Jesus Christ is the Creator of all that is, seen and unseen." In this exact same time period he was running around the country giving lectures on the so called collapse of intelligent design. So...his Deity is dumb and design free, yet created all this is seen and unseen? Wow. What a miracle!
.
In the same show Colbert talked about the primal pond as if it is gawd's truth scientific fact. There was a teachable moment. Miller could have told the audience that there is not a shred of evidence for any such thing, that life has never been observed to come from inorganic matter, even with intelligent design and high tech labs, and that it always and only comes from life and life of the same kind. But he only sat there in silent assent.

But lets look at what an atheist evolutionist has to say. .Richard Dawkins teaches that everything comes from nothing. This defies common sense and universal experience, not to mention the laws of physics and thermodynamics - but in evolutionism you ignore actual data and make up stories from the unverifiable and invisible past. Here is another example of that truth...
.
Richard Dawkins teaches that you came from bacteria. Now we have a world overflowing with data on bacteria. It has been observed since 1670, ancient fossilized examples have been found, and for centuries it has been observed around the clock, around the world. What does the data show - you know, data, what real science uses? it shows that no matter how much bacteria change, they stay bacteria in their bacterial domain.
.
Where is the data showing that you came from bacteria, then? Well, it doesn't exist. But hey, if you are willing to believe everything came from nothing, I guess you'll buy it that you're nothing but a bacteria update, too.
.
On this web page you can see Nobel Prize winning scientists, and other secular scientists - including some world famous evolutionists - admitting there is no evidence for evolution. You can see them calling evolution a kind of religion, something that leads to "anti knowledge", etc. Notice how many of these secular scientists acknowledge evidence for a Creator. http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1435562/posts?page=41

@canadiankewldude 🇨🇦 you are so welcome. And I thank you back. I generally get, more likely, insults. Almost never do I get a response from an evolution defender which actually includes observable scientific data, much less any that even attempts to refute what I have said.

So you are very rare.😊

If you want to research the area of creationism more seriously, I suggest the Wazooloo channel, maybe starting with the very funny and short vid SEX Crevo rant 13.

Answersingenesis is a great resource too.

Blessings to you and yours as I have prayed.

For Intelligent Design, the ID Creationists have:

1) No plausible, testable candidate for the Designer

Without such a candidate for the Designer, the entire Intelligent Design “theory” collapses immediately. You can't have a "theory" if you have no plausible, testable candidate for the central thing in that theory.

The most "plausible" Designer they can come up with is a god; but a god is the most implausible being imaginable! Also, if they propose God as the designer, then ID is clearly religious, and not science.


2) No valid, objective, positive evidence that the alleged Designer actually exists.

No matter what Designer they put forward, the ID Creationists must first show that their Designer actually exists before any claims they make about their alleged Designer supposedly doing this or that have any meaning. It is easy to say, “The Supreme Council of Magical Invisible Flying Polkadotted Mermaid-Werewolf-Zombies created the bacterial flagellum”, but until someone shows that The Supreme Council of Magical Invisible Flying Polkadotted Mermaid-Werewolf-Zombies actually exists, the claim that it/they created the bacterial flagellum is worthless. Same goes for their Designer.


3) No valid, testable, plausible explanation for the origin of the information in the alleged Intelligent Designer.

ID Creationists don’t even try to explain how the vast amounts of information that the Intelligent Designer would have come about; they just try to wish it into existence, as if by magic.

So despite their implications that they explain the origin of complex specified information, ID Creationists aren't explaining where any information comes from … none at all! So what exactly are they supposed to be explaining??


4) No valid, testable, plausible mechanism for the Designer to actualize His designs.

Just saying "Design" does not give us a mechanism: It does not describe how a design in the mind of the alleged Intelligent Designer would get instantiated physically in the genomes of living organisms.

And no, POOF! is not valid, testable, or plausible!

PS: When scientists manipulate the genome of a mouse, for example, then lay out in minute detail every step they perform. That is what is needed, and ID Creationists can't provide it for their position.


5) No confirmed Intelligently Designed biological system

ID Creationists cannot show us even a single biological system that is, according to the consensus of biologists, intelligently designed. Not one!

A biological system that only a handful of fringe biologists claim is intelligently designed does not suffice. It must be the consensus of biologists that the system was.

And, of course, with modern biotechnology, there are examples of intelligently designed biological “things”, but that doesn't help the ID Creationists. Humans could not be the Intelligent Designer of ID: how could a human have created the bacterial flagellum more than a billion years ago? A biological “thing” created by humans is not a valid example of a biological system that was allegedly intelligently designed by the alleged Intelligent Designer of ID, and it is the latter that they must provide.

From Lehigh University
Department position on evolution and "intelligent design"
The faculty in the Department of Biological Sciences is committed to the highest standards of scientific integrity and academic function. This commitment carries with it unwavering support for academic freedom and the free exchange of ideas. It also demands the utmost respect for the scientific method, integrity in the conduct of research, and recognition that the validity of any scientific model comes only as a result of rational hypothesis testing, sound experimentation, and findings that can be replicated by others.
The department faculty, then, are unequivocal in their support of evolutionary theory, which has its roots in the seminal work of Charles Darwin and has been supported by findings accumulated over 140 years. The sole dissenter from this position, Prof. Michael Behe, is a well-known proponent of "intelligent design." While we respect Prof. Behe's right to express his views, they are his alone and are in no way endorsed by the department. It is our collective position that intelligent design has no basis in science, has not been tested experimentally, and should not be regarded as scientific.

Gary Walker

"Intelligent design" originated in response to the 1987 United States Supreme Court Edwards v. Aguilard ruling involving separation of church and state.[18] Its first significant published use was in Of Pandas and People, a 1989 textbook intended for high-school biology classes.[19] Several additional books on "intelligent design" were published in the 1990s. By the mid-1990s, intelligent design proponents had begun clustering around the Discovery Institute and more publicly advocating the inclusion of intelligent design in public school curricula.[20] With the Discovery Institute and its Center for Science and Culture serving a central role in planning and funding, the "intelligent design movement" grew increasingly visible in the late 1990s and early 2000s, culminating in the 2005 "Dover trial" challenging the intended use of intelligent design in public school science classes.[5]

In Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District, a group of parents of high-school students challenged a public school district requirement for teachers to present intelligent design in biology classes as an alternative "explanation of the origin of life". U.S. District Judge John E. Jones III ruled that intelligent design is not science, that it "cannot uncouple itself from its creationist, and thus religious, antecedents", and concluded that the school district's promotion of it therefore violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.[21]

Scientist Flanders

"The citizens of the Dover area were poorly served by the Intelligent Design advocates. It is ironic that several of these individuals - who so staunchly and proudly touted their religious convictions in public - would time and again lie to cover their tracks and disguise the real purpose behind the ID Policy"
- Judge John E Jones lll summing up Kitzmiller v. Dover

Scientist Flanders

"After the trial, there were calls for the defendants to be tried for purjory because they had not presenting their case honestly. Witnesses testified inconsistently, consistantly lied outright under oath and both Alan Bonsell and William Buckingham lied at their depositions. Bonsell repeatedly failed to testify in a truthful manner and every one of the defendants have unceasingly attempted in vain to distance themselves from their own wifully deceptive actions and statements, which culminated in repetitious, untruthful testimony."
- Judge John E Jones lll summing up Kitzmiller v. Dover

Gary Walker

Birds are descended from and are a living branch of dinosaurs. We have found many dinosaur fossils with the imprints of feathers preserved, even dinos that were too heavy to ever fly. Even the velociraptor of "Jurassic Park" fame has been shown to have the anchor points on the bone of its fore limbs of feathers indistinguishable from the same bumps found in eagles or geese. This case is further reinforced by the fact that chickens still have the DNA for a long bony tail like a dinosaur.

PS: Another difference is that with the Morse code, you can reverse the process and get back the original message, but that is not the case with the "genetic code". Talking about humans exchanging information here and talking metaphorically in some cases.

If someone uses the Morse code and sends dash dot dot dot, the receiver can use the Morse code lookup table to decode that into the letter B, unambiguously. Also, the letter B can be encoded only as dash dot dot dot: both directions, there is no ambiguity. It is a one-to-one, unambiguous mapping.

On the other hand, if someone uses the genetic code and sends CUU, the receiver can use the genetic code lookup table to decode that into Leucine, unambiguously. However, the amino acid leucine cannot be encoded as only 1 codon: there is ambiguity. Leucine has 6 codons that it can be encoded as: UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA, or CUG. So there is no ambiguity in only one direction - in the other direction, there can be a lot of ambiguity. This also is unlike the Morse Code ... and ASCII code, and Unicode, etc.

Gary Walker

Dr Neil Shubin wanted to find an early fish that could crawl up onto land. Eusthenopteron of 385 million years ago was similar to the later Acanthostega of 365 million years ago but there was too much difference for there not to be an intermediate species so he looked for exposed sedimentary rock of the right type and age and found this in the Canadian Arctic on Ellesmere Island and found the intermediate species that was then named Tiktaalik.

Jeffrey Kaufmann

Fish were walking on the bottom floors of the Ocean for Millions of years before some of them became terrestrial. What I don't get is how can a creature which breathes thru water go on land and breathe thru Air? That's like me trying to breathe underwater. It's impossible.

Gary Walker

@Jeffrey Kaufmann Because of events where the oxygen was depleted in the water, especially in fresh water, fish would come to the surface and gulp air. (It helped that the oxygen level in the air were significantly higher at the time.) They developed lungs before they came onto land.

Jeffrey Kaufmann

@garywalker447  how would the body of a fish know how to construct a lung?
