It's well documented that Creationist don't release their "research" to real scientists.

What did you study. Just curious.

It is evident that you are in one of these argumentative moods ... I will be back later.
I assumed that when you gave me an assinine answer...
And I'm not in an argumentative mood. I'm actually smiling as I type this.

Originally posted by Strong Bad Frankly, our culture places way too much emphasis on a formal education. To succeed in a formal education in this culture all you have to do is spit back what the profs said to you. Gimme common sense and a well read person any day some guy relying on his degree.
I would agree with you to some degree on this - but a good college education should make you well read. That is one of the biggest shortcomings of places like Univ of Phoenix, etc - the liberal arts portion is so deemphasised.
Critical thinking, reasoning, etc are sorely lacking in this country.

Ah but the best source for learning finer critical thinking, reasoning, etc. is upper level education.

There are new findings that suggest people who go atleast 4 years to get a college education are a huge percentage lower for Alzheimer's. I guess the stimulation of the brain does some good.

It probably would relate to the fact that college educated people usually try to continue their education .

an individual can can go to all the college they want, if they have been infected with the religion virus from an early age, no amount of science or logic can defeat it.
I'm going to post this here, because for some reason it seemed weird to have it on the "sodomy" thread...this sums up a lot of why I believe what I do:
(I apologize for this being so long, I got long winded )
No, I haven't had a strong faith my whole life...just since I was around 21 or so.
I was born into a Christian household, but really didn't like church growing up...not until I was 21 did I feel a need for it. But there was one day where I woke up and just felt like my life was missing something, and I knew the answer was God.
Since then, I've been going to church and really learned more about God.
Something just "clicked" inside of me when I accepted Jesus as my savior...it was like a relief, like I finally knew what was right.
He's proven his existence to me by many things...some of the most blatantly obvious ones come from tithing. The Bible says to give to God faithfully and you will never want for anything.
I haven't been good lately, but there was a time when I was very faithful in my giving, went about a year without really missing a tithe...and it was amazing. There was one time when we had very little money, but we tithed anyways...we had a bill to pay, but we put faith in God that he would provide.
The very next day, we received a check in the mail for something we weren't expecting...and it was just enough to cover the bill we owed. Coincedence? Some will think so, but I don't because it's happened too many times to me and other believers I know.
That is proof enough for me, yet I still fall short at times and my faith wanes when I'm running low on funds at the end of the month. And I can tell things get harder financially when I haven't tithed faithfully.
That is one of the more obvious ones to me that prove God's existence and the truth of the Bible. Other things that are more of a faith and "feel" type thing are harder to explain. Things like just trying to be like Jesus to anyone you come in contact with...it's amazing how they will notice a difference in you.
Praying to God to help you with a decision, and then feeling good about whatever you decide is another. We've done this many times and know that God has guided us in the right direction.
Just today in fact, was an example of that. I am trying to get Lasik surgery, but was nervous about it because of just the idea of my eyes being worked on, but also finances...we're trying to pay off some debt, and adding $1400 for Lasik to that seems dumb.
Anyways, I prayed to God for guidance in this...should I do it? Should I be patient and wait? Needless to say, since I've prayed about it, I've had some little feelings against doing it. And then suddenly today it hit me hard that maybe I should be patient and wait, and not use the money for this now, instead, pay off more debt. It's not like I NEED Lasik.
So today, after leaving 4 messages with the doctor to ask some more questions and getting no response, and then being declined by Aetna for one form of financing, I just felt like this was God pointing me in the right direction.
So I decided not to do it, and be patient with my money and stick to our goal of paying off debt. You know what? My heart and mind were suddenly at ease with my decision...and I feel great. The days preceeding this, I had decided to go ahead and do it, and something was always nagging in the back of my head.
Some of you will see this as just my sub-conscious telling me which way to go, but that's not the truth, to me. I feel God's help and the way he eases my mind. The Bible says to give everything to God, including petty decisions that come up in life.
I try to do that and I can feel how he takes care of me.
Y'all need to read some Richard Dawkins. It's the inabilty of people with limited vision to understand billion year timelines that cause them to flee to the security of an anthropocentric god.
god just takes the question of origin back one more step - "how did god come to be?"
I have been in the same situations that you are going through....should I do this or do that....I need some guidance
Well, I sit and think on my own what I need to do and accomplish, and I do this without praying. I use my own reasoning. My wife prays and when we make the decision she says, "It was God's will." I think....uh no, I made the decision after I thought about it, God had nothing to do with it.

He's God, he's always been there...time has no meaning to him.
As limited beings, we can only think in 3 dimensions...movement basically...forward, back, up and down.
No one knows how to move in the 4th dimension, which is time. We also, as humans, cannot understand what it would be like to have time mean nothing. We cannot comprehend that something may NOT have had a beginning...it just always has BEEN.
To God, time is just another way to move around. If you think about a dot on a piece of paper...it can only move on that flat plain of paper...two dimensions...it would be IMPOSSIBLE for it to move off the paper and into a 3rd dimension.

Well, when I pray, I ask for his guidance in a decision, then I make what seems like the best decision. I trust God, and I know that whatever I decide, since I asked for his guidance, is going to be in his will.
I think you're wife has the right idea...and you should be happy she's praying for that stuff...I'll bet she's praying for you too.

Well, my question is this: If God is intervening in our lives with such regularity...why do we have brains and problem solving skills?
