there is no god?

[Cubboo]

Lol yeah i guess I am stupid for misspellin words on my iPhone you got me... U seem to take what part of my comments you want to dissect and not the ones you have no answer for... Everyone that doesn't believe in Him is referring stilllllll to the prove he's real thing... So just because someone can't 100% be proven it then it's not a fact... Prove loves real...U can't u just have faith that it is That argument has no basis and honestly a very dumb thing almost five year old thing to say... believing in God is about having faith thats what faith is believing in something and knowing in your heart... Y'all on the other hand are refering to science... And yeah my dumb self even took physics and if I remember correctly in science there's a hypothesis and if that hypothesis has no basis then it's discarded... So until an atom is created via your science rules your statement is false therefore untrue and you are wrong

  i can understand that wild cats evolved and devloped over a period of time to adapt to their environments, i can understand that male birds have the prettiest and brightest plummage to attract the females...i can understand that nocturnal animals developed night vision to hunt at night, when there is less competition for the resourses, but, why did humans develope the ability to love?  that was no accident, no big bang theory can explain that.

Everybody is entitled to there own beliefs, if you want to belief in God (which by the way I DO and very proud to believe GOD is almighty and I feel good because of it), or if you want to be an atheist.  It is your life's prerogative.  Religion and politics are 2 subjects that nobody will ever agree on.  It is better to agree to dissagre and leave it at that.

I do not questions life and what it the beginning of it, to me God is our creator and I do not questioned.  Whoever wants to think that GOD does not exist then I guess they will believe it until it is their time to die and find out for themselves.  Whatever religion your are or not, you have your own beliefs, I am Catholic and proud of it, but I accept all religions, every religion believe in a GOD, and might be call whatever you want to call he is only one.

A bumble bee's wings are too small to carry its body and fly (scientifically) YET it still manages to fly.

Can you explain what you mean by this?? ...scientifically  Obviously the mechanics of a bee's wings work just fine.

If you don't believe in a God, and I do...why does it bother you so much? Absence of evidence is not Evidence of absence...

Absence of Evidence is NOT Evidence of Absence...  ***crickets***

Quoting and arguing with yourself?  ***crickets***

[tammypete]

If that is what you believe then thats YOUR opinion.  I however do believe that there is a GOD!!!!

Actually, there is something that can explain it.  It helps with reproduction.  You see, because carrying and raising a child puts such stress on a female's body, women evolved to become more picky about their suitors.  They didn't want to risk a pregnancy and the consequences that come with it with just any old Joe.  Richard Dawkins has books on this phenomenon if you're interested.

Those that try that absence of evidence rebuttal have failed to consider that a lack of evidence for presence does not constitute evidence of presence either.  It's just another way of demanding 'proof something doesn't exist', while diverting attention from the lack of evidence for outrageous claims.

On the other side of that same coin, it added to the incentive for the male to stick around, (which benefited a gravid female and later offspring).  Of course, there's a difference between sex and 'love' which was/is not apparent to males who don't stick around after impregnation.  Consider that marriage is a contractual concept and what that implies for both parties.

'According to 20th century folklore, the laws of aerodynamics prove that the bumble bee should be incapable of flight, as it does not have the capacity (in terms of wing size or beats per second) to achieve flight with the degree of wing loading necessary.
The calculations that purported to show that bumble bees cannot fly are based upon a simplified linear treatment of oscillating aerofoils. The method assumes small amplitude oscillations without flow separation. This ignores the effect of dynamic stall, an airflow separation inducing a large vortex above the wing, which briefly produces several times the lift of the aerofoil in regular flight. More sophisticated aerodynamic analysis shows that the bumblebee can fly because its wings encounter dynamic stall in every oscillation cycle.

Additionally, John Maynard Smith, a noted biologist with a strong background in aeronautics, has pointed out that bumble bees would not be expected to sustain flight, as they would need to generate too much power given their tiny wing area. However, in aerodynamics experiments with other insects he found that viscosity at the scale of small insects meant that even their small wings can move a very large volume of air relative to the size, and this reduces the power required to sustain flight by an order of magnitude.
 
Another description of a bee's wing function is that the wings work similarly to helicopter blades, "reverse-pitch semirotary helicopter blades".'

By FAITH I believe there is a God.

You are aware, that humans are animals and love/sex are part of the instinct to procreate.

i can understand that.......but, why did humans develope the ability to love?  that was no accident, no big bang theory can explain that.

Although I'm not nearly as educated/informed/well read in ANY areas of science as queenofnines is -
(& I'm not being a smart-a**, queenofnines, I read your posts somewhat in awe of how intelligent you seem to be!  ) -
I DO KNOW this:  Humans evolved from apes, and I have seen an abundance of proof that these creatures have the ability to love, and to care for and protect their babies, and each other.  There have been recorded instances of both male and female gorillas becoming a temporary "guardian" of human children, exhibiting behavior that goes well beyond their "normal" (expected) behavior to protect these children until human help arrived, and could step in and take over the task for them.

So, you see, the capability to love is not exclusive to humans, although it has become a more complex trait in humans.  The capability of feeling emotions began as just another incredible part of our evolution journey, and humans did NOT develop (or "DEVELOPE" as in your post) this "ability"; Feeling and showing emotion is NOT a capability unique to humans - it's NOT a strictly human trait.

One could just as well attribute "everything" to invisible pink unicorns therefore, such generalized attributions do not conclusively describe attributible cause and effect links.  Instead, they constitute unsupported assumptions.

I would be more apt to join a church that worships the omnipotent pink unicorn than a christ-centric religion any day of the week.
Behold the grace of his glorious horn and let its light engulf you with love and glitter!!

Er, there may be a distinct undertone to the whole unicorn symbolism however, I catch most of your drift without delving too deeplyinto unicornism.

OMG!! I am totally LMAO over this whole UNICORN dialogue (and UNICORNISM?!?)!! Too FUNNY!

Your post reminded me of this...
Look what my hubby and I found in a church in Italy!
lol  Here ya go:

It is the almighty!!! 

OKAY - You all need to STOP with the unicorn theme now, because I'm already about peeing my pants!
And I wouldn't feel right beholding the glorious horn's grace, NOR would I feel worthy of being engulfed in the love and glitter of said glorious horn's light.
