It would be far more interesting to have a discussion, with you, if you knew what you were talking about!....don't you think?

As so far as your post: "Unfortunately what you said is exactly what the 'Creationists' and now 'ID' proponents say to deliberately twist and misrepresent something that not only is it clear that they DO not want to understand, but FEAR that if they do and accept, they will lose temporal power in manipulating others. From the very beginning of the publication of the concepts of Darwin and Wallace, such religious fanatics have trumpeted that 'evolution cannot exist, cause my magic sky fairy did it - and we do not believe that Man evolved from monkeys'. Science never said that Man did."

This is my quote: "Not only have you avoided the issue, by accusing me of being slipping 'fundamentalist' Christian teachings, into the mix, you've misstated what is being said, to manipulate the topic to argue against a simile, I gave to Slag, to suit your personal, point of view, so you can comfortably argue it on your personal point of view, which seems to contradict itself. Then you assert claims, of which you have NO proof, other than your OPINION.

I think you are playing to impress the audience, rather than, having a discussion, finding consistency, with the theories you quote....and trying to make it appear true. I think you could do a little better than that, at least in admitting that some theories pick up, where others leave off, or at least, conflict with each other, at certain points."

Now underline: "to manipulate the topic to argue against a simile, I gave to Slag, to suit your personal, point of view, so you can comfortably argue it on your personal point of view, which seems to contradict itself."

...and read, in light of: "I just quoted them from the 'lesson' linked to in a previous post by someone else."

Come on, can't you come up with an original thought????....or are you waiting for it to be 'Created', so you can contradict it, TOO!

My post was concerning LIGHT, and energy that cannot be created, nor destroyed!

ALL matter is made of light...so, however light came together, could it be said, would it not be true, that light created all matter??

My comment was to Slag, just stating, that 'the light came into darkness'..which he gave a parallel quote from the Bible. It's not that I'm promoting a 'fundementalist' doctrine, as much as 2000 years ago, this was said, and only proven about 75 years ago!

Sounds like they had some understandings that 'science' is still playing 'catch up' with!

What I suspect, is that many atheists, perhaps yourself included, say there is no God, but really mean to say, 'There is no God, at least what I conceived it was, and perhaps, still do!'

..and by the way, I am not a fundamentalist, nor evangelical.
