Do You Believe In Creationism?
-
Just wonderinng
-
Of course not. Nice story though, as a metaphor and all.

Question:
If you had been a fifth-grade kid, alone in the woods of your farm, and you slipped into
a deep spring, at 2 degrees above zero.... and you couldn't get out for anything.
And you went through nearly all the stages of what you later would know as hypothermia...
and you lived to tell about it because you were retrieved out of the spring in the last few
minutes of your young life.....
while you were all alone, still?
Would you still think that God is not there?

lol, what the hell are you talking about
also, just because you don't believe in creationism doesn't mean you don't believe in god, just saying
-
I asked a question. Were you afraid to answer it?
It is a legit question, btw...
-
I can answer it: I wouldn't even begin to think that this scenario somehow involved God. People slip through the ice all the time. Water that cold brings on hypothermia quickly. If someone pulls you out and you can get warm again, you're likely to recover. A near-death experience like that doesn't suggest anything about God. It suggests that you shouldn't walk on thin ice.
Why don't you answer his question?
-
Oh, that was a question?
Then no I would think its gods work everytime someone almost dies but doesn't.
And like I said believing in God and believing in creationism aren't dependent on one another.
Do you believe in creationism Cal?
How old do you think the Earth is?
-
And after you answer that you can answer what you think about this five year old who fell through the ice.
Also proof that God is there?

Proof that he was praying to the wrong god.

You fail to read, again.
I was rescued out of that spring in the woods.
I went from disgust, to nearly falling asleep underwater,
after the violent shaking subsided.
I was rescued by no human being. There was no one there but me.
And, Heck, that's pretty sad for you to cherry pick that drowning off the internet.
The lad didn't have chance. That isn't what I'm saying at all.
I was rescured..... But it wasn't a person who rescued me.
Back to the question - if a miracle happened to you... wouldn't you think it was impossible without God working that wonder?
Sometimes there's no way for the miracle to happen, sad to say..
Of course miracles don't just happen all the time. That has been a question that on the back of my mind for years.
In the last few minutes I had left, I figure... I was rescued. By no human being.
It was a miracle I'm here. Would you realize that miracles just don't happen ?
-
Shit happens. Not the best proof of God I've ever heard.
Hypothermia can affect your brain
Lack of oxygen in a near death experience can cause you too hallucinate
Again, none of this has anything to do with the question I asked.
Sure there may be a god, and maybe you think he performed a miracle, but I am asking you about whether or not you believe in creationism. And how old do you think the earth is?

There was nothing supernatural about what happened. You were screaming and your cow or donkey heard you and pulled you out. Wouldn't be the first case where an animal helped out a human in distress.

That would actually be more awesome than divine intervention

Hey, Cal, if you were really pulled from a spring by a supernatural force, you should alert the Vatican. They're looking for a second "miracle" for Pope John Paul. But no one would believe your story the way you tell it, and they shouldn't believe it.
Now, when are you going to answer Woody's question?
-
That I believe in creationism? I answered that a lot of times. Why do we have to go over and over stuff
for nitwits who think they've heard it all on the board when they are just new here?
Yes. I look at the universe, our solar system... I imagine the vastness of never ending space.
You think that happened by accident? Ya gotta be kidding.
And how old the earth is? does carbon dating mean God doesn't exist? Of course not.
And how in nature did animals come to exist to respond to human beings like some do?
You really think all of nature's miracles are just some labortory accident in some prehistoric cave
inhabited by aliens?
Although.... if you said that was correct, I wouldn't be surprised, except that you progs/lefts never believe in.... anything, most of the time.
-

Just as likely as your beliefs being true. For me, what cements it is the fact that we don't necessarily understand the nature of time itself. For example, most people say there was nothing before the Big Bang. Well, nothing doesn't mean only space, it also includes time. Time came into existence when the big bang happened, and how it has worked between then and now is something we still don't even have close to a complete understanding of.

So just because you don't understand something, it must be God.
-- How does the Sun come up? God
-- How does the tide go in and out? God
-- How did everything get here? God
.... nope
Why do animals respond to us like some do? Evolution...

No. I think everything on this Earth came to be over billions of years through natural selection.
You believe a myth. I believe a scientific theory. One with decades of work behind it.
Honestly the proof behind the ancient aliens theory is more compelling than the history laid out form the Bible.

We sure dont.
Which is why I believe in the big bang theory about as much as any creationist story any theologian could throw out there.

At least the big bang theory has some math and science behind it. It definitely isn't certain, but for now it is winning in my mind.
Who's to say that their isn't a God and it set everything in motion with the Big Bang?

As I've said before, believe whatever you want.
