SD bans all abortions

oh, i see.....sooo Just b/c something comes from a Christian Scientist, it is not valid?

Nope. Contradiction in terms.

Christian Science was invented so they could start crapping on the other side of the fence. You don't see many Scientists calling themselves Ministers so they can reinterpret scriptures.

Now if you want to show me some evolutionary evidence that is credible, feel free.

[arsevader]

whooooaa there buddy...scientist carbon date tested a LIVE turtle and the test results showed the turtle was a couple BILLION years old. Hows that for accurate? yes the turtle died durring testing and no the testing did not take a couple billion years. Evolution is a load of crap.

Well I guess the argument is over. :)

Game Set and Match to the Fundamentalists.

I decided not to read 8pages ,

so here are my questions,
If it´s ok to kill animals why is it not ok to kill people?
Are we better then animals?
Do we have any more rights to life then animals?
Or even plants or nature for that matter?

I wish humanas got off there high horse about owning this planet,
What do you guys think decises are?
Well to clear it, they are natures form of preserving the balance we
keep messing up, why can´t everybody have children??,, again nature at work.


I´m not a vegiterian.
I don´t belive in the purpose of politics
And I think 2-3 billion people is about what this planet can handle

[Apex381]

Wow, shot down all your credibility with that one.

....ha and I honestly want to know where it comes from. I would like to read about that one....

I agree with you. This planet has been fucked completely. Have you read "A Man Without a Country"?

[BimmerToad]

No, but when it comes from a non-scientific Religious advocacy group, then its not credible.

Exactly. It's hard to do objective research when you're being funded by a religious group that employs you to fulfill an agenda

For all you that believe in evolution, it's funny and yet creepy at the same time.

For all you that believe in creationism, I think the website said something about writing a 5 paragraph essay about how the video made you better understand science...

With regards to abortion: What about in the case of severe birth defects? Should a fetus not be terminated if it does not have even a partially developed brain, heart, spinal cord? Should we focus our efforts on spending hundreds of thousands trying to correct severe birth defects (some babies are even born with external hearts...) because we believe it is a living thing while still in the womb. That same money could be going to thousands of living people suffering from malnutrition in Africa. Are we as a society arrogant enough to focus our attention on a questionable living thing when thousands of people die daily from inadequate water and food?

AppStateSVX, for a philosophy major, I expected a better argument.

oh, i see.....sooo Just b/c something comes from a Christian Scientist, it is not valid? The fact remains, the fossil record does NOT support macro-evolution. The Cammrian Explosion fully illustrates this. Accept the facts. Now if you want to show me some evolutionary evidence that is credible, feel free.

If you want to learn about the "Cammrian" explosion, talkorigins.org is a nice resource.

whooooaa there buddy...scientist carbon date tested a LIVE turtle and the test results showed the turtle was a couple BILLION years old. Hows that for accurate? yes the turtle died durring testing and no the testing did not take a couple billion years. Evolution is a load of crap.

Ahh. Another load of crap. Chances are, you don't know the first thing about dating fossils. Not only that, but you don't even recognize the fact that there are numerous other dating methods and the fact that scientists know how to take into account factors that can affect a specimens apparent age.

Amen. It can be argued that one of the reasons Africa is in it's sad state (besides corrupt government) is because of overpopulation and a struggle over resources. I believe overpopulation has become the root of most worldwide problems. It is just a matter of time before we have a global disease epidemic to keep the population in check.

The sad thing is, some of these fundamentalist christians don't think it's a concern, since the 'day of judgement is upon us.' It gives them the right to fuck w/ the planet, since it will all be moot when the 'rapture' occurs.

ASU: Do you know the fundamentals of how dating methods work? I'd appreciate it if you answered my question

I don't have nearly the time or energy right now to sit here and type everything for you. If you come to a meet sometime, I'll talk to you, but as far as i'm concerned, no one is actually listening to anything that I have typed. I give the words of a scientist that receieved his degree from BERKELEY and am told that he "is not a true scientist" No matter what I bring up, none of you are even listening. I enjoyed talking to royalflush, as he actually listens and admits if he might be wrong. To the rest of you, enjoy your evolution. Think about this though, if we truly are just descended from muck, do we have any reason at all to value any kind of life? Everything you do to be "moral" is just a complete waste of your time.

Whether or not you want to believe something has little bearing on whether or not its true.

Sounds suspiciously like Kirk Cameron's voice.

still waiting for some actual evidence for evolution, can't seem to find any.... Another interesting thing to note is that the fossil record has a severe lacking of the billions of "intermediate" forms that would HAVE to exist to support macro-evolution

[asubimmer]

my question is that if we came from monkeys then why are they still on the planet and there aren't any of the animals btw us? If we came from monkeys then we are obviously better then them and they should be extinct.
