    For that to be true the woodland would have had to evolve from the life that originated in itself for a start...

    JC after today I've finally made up (I think) my opinion of you. I can't state it though as it's against the boards charter. You're very good at it though!

    I was referring to 'Pondslime' ... which would be some kind of primordial green goo in the supposed era before higher plants and therefore forest trees supposedly evolved.
    The current conventional theory postulates that life initiated its suposed evolution in ponds, possibly close to hot springs.

    I'm not really that good ... it's just much easier for me ... because what I'm claiming to have happened, actually did.:)

    It's the same with this 'alien' stuff ... I have the advantage of actually having observed them and their technology, at first hand ... whereas you guys all seem to be relying on what somebody else (who has never seen them either) has told you about them.

    You don't really ... you just want to laugh ... and if I hadn't seen them myself, I'd probably be just the same as you guys, in this regard.
    Anyway, there are strong protocols about such discussions ... but most of the time they don't need to be applied because everyone is 'self-censoring' on this issue.
    ... and I'll just leave it at that, if that is OK.;)

    Indeed it is not. This is how science moves forward through the judicious use of imagination BUT then followed by ... well I'll leave it to Richard Feynman to explain.

    It's that little bit at the end that causes problem for the religious.

    "If it disagrees with experiment, it’s WRONG. In that simple statement is the key to science. It doesn’t make any difference how beautiful your guess is, it doesn’t matter how smart you are who made the guess, or what his name is… If it disagrees with experiment, it’s wrong. That’s all there is to it.”

    It's the lack of evidence for the 'invisible friend' that makes it unbelievable and the inconsistencies with nature, for example, the existence of evil or the nature of free will both of which are at odds with the claims of omnipotence, omniscience and beneficence of the invisible friend.

    The evidence for evolution is, however, extensive.

    Normally,your position is the opposite,you dismiss any advancements in science.
    While relying yourself on the secondhand tales of the bible.

    ... what is the experiment that shows that CFSGI (Complex Functional Specified Genetic Information) can be spontaneously created?

    Are you going to post any evidence in support of creationism?

    That would be a first, have yet to see him answer a question directly never mind post evidence of anything.

    That would be somewhat off-topic ... as the thread is about the origin Specious Nonesense AKA Spontaneous Evolution.:);)

    I never thought there was such a 'hunger' for Creation Science on the A & A.

    ... but, of course, it stands to reason ... when you think about it.:)

    Good point Corkfeen ... it's the evolution of the Modern Creation Synthesis ... happening right here on the A & A.

    No wonder Mr P is even hungering for more ... and impulsively created a special thread dedicated to Creation Science.

    I couldn't ask for more, guys ... it's just like all of my birthdays have come together.

    Hugs all around ... including you, Mr P.

    BTW ... it's CFSGI ... but no worries.
