Quote by: lynn  I don't know if this subject has been brought up, but I have not seen it...Do any of the creationists on here ever take antibiotics? If so, you are taking advantage of something you do not believe in. Antibiotics are simply substances produced by bacteria that kill other bacteria. In nature, they do this through the process of evolution. When bacteria A is living in the same environment as bacteria B they compete for nutrients, space, etc. One bacteria could even be harmful to the other. So, bacteria A will eventually (through random mutations) produce a substance called an antibiotic that will inhibit the growth of the invading organism. Just be glad we picked up on this phenomenon because you don't have to understand or believe in it to benefit from it. |
Natural Selection IS NOT Evolution. It happens, and is part of the hypothisis on how Evolution works, but it not Evolution itself.
"Again, every animal that appears under the Iridium layer seems to have been left by Noah to die. Not all were dinosaurs. Why?"
Because not all creatures were dinosaurs. Noah took 2 of every other kind of creature (and 7 of 'clean' creatures).
"That's not what the Bible says. It says two of each kind, doesn't it? The Bible doesn't mention 'small' as opposed to adult either."
Well he could have taken the smaller ones. Many of the dinosaurs weren't mega tall, much less than 10ft tall.
"Then you admit that evolution is a reality - in fact, macroevolution is a reality and that several species can evolve from a single ancestor population. For example, the 36 species of cat or the 23 species of dog. You are asserting evolution at rates that make the heads of evolutionary biologists spin. And if what you say is true, where is the evidence for these "kinds" and the evidence for the hyper evolution that you claim happened?"
Again, Natural Selection is not Evolution.
O.K. I won't lie, i'm not expert on Carbon Dating. You now Mt. St. Helen, how it erupted in 1980. After the events a new mound of rock had hardened around the volcanoe's hole (I know, unscientific name).
Now some scientists used Carbon Dating on that newly formed layer, it is supposed at least 350,00 years old according to the dating. Obviously the mound is no older than 20 years old. Can you explain this?
"No. They descended from a class of reptiles known as the Sauria, then through the Archosauriformes, Archosauria, Ornithodira to the Dinosauria."
What would make these variations not reptile? Fossils can be unreliable, they are thousands of years old remains of dead creatures. We as humans can do so well at trying to see into the past.
'Not enough water for the flood'
To my understanding, I can only pressume supernatural intervention (A pretty big one at that) created the flood. I doubt I can pursuade you that that anything supernatural can happen though.
"jibber jabber"
I was refering to the whole tectonic plate area, I wasn't calling it a load of evolutionist poop.
