    It is impossible for you to fathom a world not constrained by time and space, so you put your own human logic together to deduce what must have happened.

    You are a prisoner of your own mind.

    This is true for everyone, is it not?

    Since we have never experienced a world that is not constrained by time and space, it is virtually impossible to fathom it...

    I am curious to hear someone please explain to me a creationists view on my original post....the question about different breeds of dogs. It's probably a simple explanation, as I'm probably overlooking something....

    the simple explanation is that those dogs ****ed a lot of other dogs.

    Whats funny is you can't fathom how a bunch of goo from somewhere you can't explain could possibly turn into a human over quadrillions of years either, but you believe it.

    But is this not evolution?


    Shallow gene pools lead to many different exaggerated traits, which thus leads to new breeds, and sub-species, and eventually species...

    What is the creationists view on things such as dinosaurs, early hominid/ hominid species such as Neanderthals that out-date Biblical times?

    It's nice to get a different perspective on things, as I have mostly been taught evolution in every phase of schooling...

    Yes. If there is anything that strengthens my faith in God or a divine creator, it's evolution. Just perusing the different intricacies of evolution leave me in awe.

    If there is one thing that makes me wonder whether there is a divine creator, it's the fact that everything in this world is very intricately set-up, and it's all interconnected amazingly.

    But then again, that could all be from evolution, and stem from the fact that we are the only free-thinking, all-ruling species that we know exists...


    ...And we're back at square one...

    I completely believe in evolution, and I also believe that there was a divine Creator. I trust science, but it strikes me sometimes how incredible nature is, how beautiful it is, and I find myself believing that Someone MUST have set it all into motion. To muddle my beliefs more, I also don't believe that we are somehow "above" other species in that we can use them for our pleasure, whether it be their meat or hides or tusks. I actually don't know what my beliefs align with. Hell, they could all be wrong.

    Part of me wants to subscribe to black-or-white views. But it doesn't make sense in my head.

    Creationism doesn't have to be tied to the bible but creationist would have to believe that the creator put those species here.

    we're lucky they didn't have harpring too. he kills us all the time.

    but seriously though we had numerous chances to turn this game around b/c we got good steals by scola and battier and the only thing we did was let wafer and lowry run around like madmen to the other side of the court and flip up a brick.

    no, thats only one type, and it is less least interesting type.

    Transfer of genes is easily understood. Asian plus black = Tiger woods. Pretty easy to understand that

    Mutation of genes is the fun part. If Lance Armstrong's kid has two hearts and 15% more lung capacity, no one can explain that crap.

    People were talking about what seemed like species of dogs earlier but the species is wolf, dogs are subspecies and so on

    You're getting confused with The Law of Gravy.
