Yea, it's called transpermiation (don't look it up. There is literally no chance that I spelled it correctly). I've heard it discussed in the context that aliens planted people here. This helps some to explain the origins of life (think in terms of Evolution vs. Creation debates).
I am so sorry.
What lies am I telling you?
Every book in the Bible is "not the same document". They are all different.
Then we really have nothing further to debate, do we?
Yea, I know. These are liberal scholars and are routinely dismissed by academics of all types.
True. Textual criticism is used in apologetics but TC is not a creation of Christianity or Apologetics. This is how all documents from antiquity are reviewed.
...???...
A virgin is someone who hasn't had sex.
Isaac was sparred. It was simply a test.
...okay...
Transpermia/panspermia is the notion that life is transferred via rocks from asteroids/comets.
Thanks! I knew it was something like that.
And I simply can't believe that life just arouse from nothing.
Who heard God say any of that?
Then where did god come from? Surely not from nothing.
Human knowledge remains limited until we evolve additional capacity to discover and to understand. You have faith in something (god) and I have faith in nothing. Your faith limits your capacity to evolve and to understand and my faith yields perpetual potential. Different strokes....
Sounds like you have faith in science.
You're assumptions here are wrong. You're assumptions being, of course:
Your #1 negates your #2 if you believe evolution isn't real.
Nope....see bolded above. When someone claims the OT and NT are basically the same and that "according to" means the actual apostle wrote it and gives such early dates for the NT writings is for me "nothing further to debate". Paul invented Christianity out of whole cloth, and that isn't the cloth from a priest's robe.
Are you saying evolution doesn’t happen, and never has?
Some people love to argue...I do not, never did...I like to state what I believe and move on...
Ha!! Not one person here believes that! Look at your post count.
I already said that. I think I also said I debated religion for not years but decades and it always comes to the believers wanting me to debate on their terms, IOW, AS IF the bible was ordained by some God and that every sentence and syllable is 100% true and no contradictions, like someone saying there is no inflation when everything costs more, black can be white, up can be down and 2+2 could equal 5.
No. It can be observed in viruses. But there is not transitional evidence of it occurring elsewhere.
There is no evidence that OJ was guilty either. Do you expect to see a monkey morph into a human right before your eyes?
Just look at the fossil record, for starters. If you acknowledge evolution can occur in viruses, on what basis do you assume it cannot happen in other organisms?
Well, then, you certainly don't want to talk to me.
Talking happens over coffee. Debate happens here. Challenging beliefs and hearing rebuttals gives me fresh perspective. I'm not opposed to the idea of a creator but I am resistant to the idea of a deity.
So you don't thing the Creator is God?
Not unless you can prove there's a God to begin with and prove said God created anything.
I still prefer the idea of a genesis sans creator or deity. It is more miraculous to me than if an entity created us. A creator is just an enhanced version of us. Humans create life when they reproduce and it doesn't take any special talent. But life created by pure random dumb luck or chance, now that's a miracle.
