Using atheist ideology, an atheist can't envision a way for the universe to be created. EDIT: Unless one factors in the faith of atheists - the non-faith in god(s). I don't know, can atheists do thought experiments on how the universe was created? I know they can do thought experiments on how an argument is like a sandwich....
What is atheist ideology
what is faith of atheism
what does the creation of the universe have to do with atheism?
these questions will be dodged and can factually be answered because atheism is not a religion has no faith nor is it an ideology. THis fact remains true no matter how many times lies are posted falsely declaring otherwise. lol
if you disagree simply post FACTS that answer those questions and that some how magically proof the dictionary wong lmao
who wants to bet this is dodged
And, for what its worth, as my collection of ancient literature goes beyond the normal bounds of the average personal library. I have found all doctrines of modern evolution in the classical era, including things like string & M-theory. Evolutionists have taught nothing new that has not been taught thousands of years ago in ancient times.
Ok, I’ll bite: What do you think string theory has to do with evolution? I would be very surprised to hear it discussed in a biology class.
How can a theory of biology cause a bias in physics? And you specifically said string theory was taught by “evolutionists.”I don't think you'll hear this discussed in biology class. String theory is a theory interpreted from an evolutionary bias.
I don't think you'll hear this discussed in biology class.String theory is a theory interpreted from an evolutionary bias. The church fathers would give the same reply then as we do today. The theory may have some seeds of truth in it but not worth dwelling on. I used to love studying cosmology until I realized that most of it is just one metaphysical conjecture piled on to many other metaphysical conjectures. But everything that evolutionists believe today comes from ancient times.
Here's some information by St.Augustine that destroys a sacred cow today, which is the erroneous belief that Charles Darwin was the mind who discovered the ape to man evolution myth. In fact, Darwin only read literature of the classical era and then called it his own. Today people think Darwin was some great scientist who proved man evolved from apes. But this careless thinking avoids the reality that what came down to us from Darwinian assumptions had been an ancient mystical belief long before Augustine's time. Here, Augustine is speaking about the origin and diversity of humans and some myths which have come about since ancient times.
....
for if we did not know monkeys, long tailed apes and chimpanzees are not men but animals, those natural historians who plume themselves on their collection of curiosities might pass them off on us as races of men, and get away with such nonsense
I don’t think anyone who ever studied evolution believes that. Darwin’s was not the first theory of evolution. His contribution was the concept of natural selection. He was the first to propose a mechanism for evolution that was actually true (though not complete)Here's some information by St.Augustine that destroys a sacred cow today, which is the erroneous belief that Charles Darwin was the mind who discovered the ape to man evolution myth.
Nothing you cite comes even close to natural selection. How Darwin reached his conclusions is well documented in his notes from the Beagle.In fact, Darwin only read literature of the classical era and then called it his own.
Let's isolate the important part of all that:
Now, of course, we're not approaching from a position of ignorance as Augustine was, and we know men are in fact apes, phylogenetically placed in the hominid family within the primate order. Augustine, no matter how clever he was, was limited by the inability to obtain objective proof of his assertions.
Augustine called you hollow philosophers out centuries ago.
Augustine was wrong. If you or Augustine have proof positive for an origin of Mankind other than that of evolution from an ape, feel free to present it.
