There's somebody over on talk.origins that Jabbers ought to meet.
He's a Dutch convert to islam who uses the nym "nando_ronteltap." He
believes rocks have free will. He and Joseki/Jabriol should pair up
and take their act on the road.

So you believe that your god-thingy is alive in the sense that it has
a physical body and DNA?

And by the way: please demonstrate why life - which we know is not an
either/or thing - cannot arise from ordinary chemical processes, given
the right conditions?

Actually, there are many, many people in the biological sciences who
know evolution to be a fact who *do* believe that there is a god that
caused the chemical processes to work the way they needed to in order
to produce life, and then caused life to evolve the way it wanted
using natural processes. They're called "theistic evolutionists" and
there are quite a few of them.

The fact is, *if* there's a god, there's no reason s/he couldn't do
her/his creating purely through natural processes. You are the one
who wants to put limits on your god by saying the *only* way it could
create and multiply life forms is through magick.

"Primordial pond" is old, old stuff. Nowadays, we whipper-snappers
think that there's a much better chance that life formed, oh, in the
undersea vents of volcanos ("black smokers"), where even today
bacteria called "extremophiles" proliferate. Or life could have
formed in moist clay lattices, or even in fissures deep under the
earth. Or maybe even off-planet, after which it was deposited on the
surface (probably by meteorites) and was able to spread. But
"primordial pond"? How 1950s.

I mean, Jeezus, Jason, if you're gonna argue this stuff, at *least*
try to make it interesting and timely. "Primordial pond"? Please.

Why do you keep calling creation a science when it isn't science. It's
magical beliefs based on ancient scrolls. There is no evidence for a
magical mystical fantastical creation.
