[Would you please tell us what your scientific qualifications (for evaluating evolution) are? What is your profession?]

My qualification is I'm a God-fearing college dropout redneck hick landlord who goes after darwinism with freaking vengeance....and I just happen to have the truth on my side.

The vast majority of mankind will never find the Lord. Indeed, the majority of mankind will be lost for eternity. This doctrine may be difficult to accept, yet true nonetheless! But where, oh where, I ask, is the warning? I look to our pulpits, but they utter not a word of this place. Why do the vast majority of "pastors" refuse to preach hell fire?

HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of souls are going to burn in hell for ever and ever and ever. Is this not important enough to deserve our utmost attention? Why does Joel Osteen, poster boy for Colgate, refuse to preach hell fire?

My friends, Brothers and Sisters, allow me to speak plainly...

We need to cast out these cotton-candy preachers!

We need to finish with them!

My Mom actually experianced a miracle that cant be called a coincidence. She requested for God to show her that he was there for her, at a stressful time in her life, she saw a angle that night.

Facts supporting this event:
-mom is not known for lieing
-she was not sleeping
-Mainly: the angel she saw was 12-13 feet tall, at the time she thought angles were much like cupid, small...shorter then humans. If this were a dream or a illisuion her mind would of created a image similar to that of cupid, yet it was 4 times the size! She did not realize why the angel was so big in real life till she read in the Bible that angels are 11-15 feet tall.

If we evolved, why do we procreate?


Without a telos there is actually no standard for a living creature to fulfil, no potential to reach. A telos is important to giving structure and direction to a living creature. Perhaps that is why evolutionists, although not compelled to, often describe evolution as having the purpose of "selfishly" perpetuating the genetic structure of any given organism in question.

Unfortunately, if we do take the purpose of evolution to see a given organism perpetuate its genes, two central problems arise. First, even if perpetuation is the purpose of evolution why should that perpetuate any particular organism: to perpetuate oneself is an insufficient grounds to be motivated (it only relates to one small aspect of life).

Second of the two problems that arise if evolution is supposed to give the purpose of perpetuation is how evolution is supposed to perpetuate a given organism. It is all very well to tout evolution as some phallic progentitor of procreation, but short of being an excuse to sing very well the lines "let's do it like they do on the discovery channel" what actual appeal does evolution give one who believes in it? On purely evolutionary grounds evolution itself lacks the appeal and therefore the justification it needs to survive...

These two problems compound with all the other problems associated with evolution: being unable to remember having evolved, no one choosing to evolve clones from parents and parents not reappearing as descendents despite terrific "evolutionary" advantages. In all the picture does not look good for evolution and the vast gaping whole of meaning left unaddressed can only be overcome through God.

But no where in the Bible does it say that slave owners will not inherit the kingdom of God, etc. While I personally believe slavery is wrong -- maybe its not as much as we think it is if its never clearly condemned like other practices are (like idolatry, pride and homosexuality).

I don't even want to know how much you hate yourself and your life because you're an atheist. Life must be so pointless to you. I bet you amke your family miserible. That's another thing. I read your rant diary thing and I'll tell you what: that premature baby you got? I want you to know you did it. You almost killed your own baby because you reject the One True God! The sins of the father will fall unto his flower I tell you that much! How does that make you feel to know that because you hate God that you caused this tragedy in your family? If you still have a little spark of Jesus you should feel bad right now. If not it might be too late for you becaue the Devil has eaten your heart to peaces.

[Amazon Review of "Steve Allen on the Bible, Religion, and Morality"]

Has he not read Phillip Johnson, William Dembski, Michael Behe, Michael Denton, and others?.... He denies all essential doctrine of the Bible: a recent creation, the fall, the flood, the dispersion of mankind from Babel as a result of the confusion of language, the Messiah, who Jesus was/is, the diety of Christ, His death on the cross, His resurrection, things to come, all of it! [...]

His mind is really closed, something he frequently accuses others of being. If I had this book dirtying up my library, it would be there as an outstanding example of narrow-minded ignorance, faulty logic and reasoning, and plain dishonesty. He knows nothing of true science....

I believe that man can try and make all of these plans, including the North American Union/NAFTA Super highway--but God has other plans. Just because they WANT to build this big super highway doesn't mean that it will ever become completed. Little things like the rapture or wars or any number of little wrenches God throws in can change the game plan. You can still unite three countries and not have all the details worked out. And then there's that little thing called the Great Tribulation....See, I don't think God is going to say 20-50 years from now..."Oh, I see...they've completed that big highway now...okay...
time for the rapture because THEIR plan is in place now..." Nope...Israel is God's timepiece and so keep your eyes on that and keep looking up...The AC is going to come on the scene when there is much chaos...you don't need a superhighway to unite a couple of countries...we won't be here, thank goodness.

Just as an apple tree is an incredibly fine-tuned system for the production of apples because a single apple seed constitutes the genotype of that phenotype, so is our universe an incredibly fine-tuned system for the production of human beings because a single human being constitutes the genotype of the phenotype cosmos.

This living cosmology provides numerous critical insights. Among others it predicts:

(...)

•By virtue of its eternity human intelligence constitutes the cosmological constant.

•Human intelligence has quantum properties because it exists in both particle and field states. Human intelligence in its potential or seed state is a particle, but in its state of expression takes on field characteristics, and thus provides the morphogenetic field or quantum vacuum of the universe for the development of the creatures it has in mind.

(...)

•The recognition that our genome constitutes the microcosm or algorithm of the universe will lead to its utilization for all kinds of purposes, and will render fossil fuels obsolete. Instead of extracting energy from the remains of former life, we are going to tap directly into the seed source of the universe, and utilize that vacuum energy for the animation of our space vehicles.

•We'll be able to read the minds of others, just as Elijah was able to read the mind of the king of Syria, and tell the king of Israel the words Syria’s king spoke in the privacy of his bedchamber (see 2 Kings 6:8-23). This form of ESPionage will make the traditional methods of intelligence gathering obsolete.

•The human yield of this planet is ripe for the harvest. This is indicated by the fact that we have reached the stage of space travel. Those who qualify will be selected for survival, but not by Darwin’s imaginary “natural” selection. Our Creator in person is going to decide who is, or is not, qualified to live for ever. So face-to-face contact with our Creator is at hand.

These are some of the predictions we can make based on the theory of creation. They are falsifiable, and demonstrate the theory of creation’s predictive power.

Jesus is not a Hindu woman. Or any other person that has a mark on their forehead. He is not a Muslum either. How do I know? He came to New York and talked to me. That is right. He has returned, but not in body. Jesus talked to me in the spring of 2006. I have proof. I will say that again, I don’t have faith, I have proof. This is not at lie or a joke. Jesus really has returned. He talke to me. I am Melanie Stephan.

[Excerpt from a long list of "answered prayers"]

explain the following events that i prayed for and recieved with incredible accuracy.

the first answer prayer i prayed for a ballon lost in a parking lot to a restraunt i at the time lived 20 miles from said restraunt. i prayed for the return of my balloon. silently. the next morning i found a balloon in the tree (popped) in the back yard same color. i pulled it down with a rake. it had the logo of that restraunt. with the string untied. my sister got a pink one i had yellow.

i lived in texas and prayed for snow and got it. (ok it snows in texas but rarely)

i was mad at my parents and prayed for a newborn baby brother with a hairy butt crack so it was hard for them to change his diapers. it happened a year later.

I believe in sterilization for women who do not want children and want to have sex without marriage. That would solve four problems.

1) clinical abortion
2) non-clinical abortions
3) unwanted babies
4) over population

[A protestor opposed to showing "An Inconveneient Truth" in elementary school.]

"No, you will not teach or show that propagandist Al Gore video to my child, blaming our nation -- the greatest nation ever to exist on this planet -- for global warming," Hardiman wrote in an e-mail to the Federal Way School Board.

The 43-year-old computer consultant is an evangelical Christian who said he believes that a warming planet is "one of the signs" of Jesus Christ's imminent return for Judgment Day.

Okay, I am leaning towards beleiving that in Heaven, God, the angels and the saints will all speak Elizabethan English.

Just to address an issue above, I believe that the words of Jesus in other languages are what he said, but they are always translated into God's heavenly language afterwards.

The word of God has been in heaven forever. The KJV has always been there. The so called Hebrew words like Alleluia are English words. The English did not borrow them from the Hebrew but rather the Hebrew borrowed them from the English. If the KJV has always been there and is the original word of God then there is no other conclusion. The same can be said for any so called Greek words that were borrowed from the Greek or transliterated. It is a matter of what bias you approach this particular subject.

Our God is a God of Love, but also a God of Hate. Too common is the myth that God "hates the sin but loves the sinner." This is a lie! In many instances, as evident in the scriptures, God hates the individual who commits the wicked deed. Yes, it is true that our God is a God of Love, but He is also a God of Hate.

Here is a cool fact that I heard. In a lab somewhere, there are scientists that are shooting atoms at each other, seeing what smaller particles make up the atom. They have found that every atom is made up of Nuetrons, Protons and Electrons.

Each of these are made up of a smaller particle (man, I forget what they are called). After that, the only thing they found was light, and we know that light is made up of sound. Nobody yet can say (I have yet to hear) what sound is made up of.

God spoke, and there was light, and then everything else. Sound is the power of creation.

I still stand on behalf of the baby, no matter what. And if you really want to theorize, think about this. I try to look for the good in all people and all things. Perhaps the child concieved in the rape is actually a test of the woman's true faith. Raising the child could actually make the woman a better person, don't you think?
