Regardless of his capabilities, someone needs to point out that a site like icr isn't doing "peer reviewed" research. Or they are, but their peers aren't actual scientists....

For fun, I figured I'd check out where these "peer reviewed" research papers were being published....

This is a pet peeve of mine... claiming crap like that is on equal footing to actual research

Actually I was waiting for the peer reviewed science that proves there is no master plan of the universe, that there is no greater intelligence at work, call it God, Nature or whatever. Of course to do that would discredit the scientists themselves as frauds since their premise would have to start with there is no truth, therefore no science at all, so whatever these self important, self deified experts, these puny humans propose is bunk by their own definition.

Ok.... I'm going to have to ignore half your post. Mainly because it's incoherent ranting.

But the first sentence is ... dumb. Why do they need to prove there is "no master plan" or "no greater intelligence"?

That's not how science works.

You prove the existence of something. You identify it's characteristics and prove them.

It isn't the job of the scientist to disprove your myth.

Also, quantum mechanics decimates any concept of a master plan. It's not compatible.

I wish you people would make up your mind, you scientists say you don't need to prove there is "no master plan" or "no greater intelligence at work, call it God, Nature or whatever.", and at the same time claiming with authority that there is no "no master plan" or "no greater intelligence at work, call it God, Nature or whatever." You can't prove the existence of something, therefore it doesn't exist? And you say what I said is dumb? [-x
You claim to believe in science but science itself has proven that all life itself from from the smallest archaea to the largest multicellular organisms are part of a greater plan and they are still finding the many ways they are connected and dependent on one another for their survival.
So you think this is all accidental, the random chaotic arrangement of atomic particles?

What part of this do you not understand?

It is not science's job to prove the existence of your particular myth. Nor is it science's job to prove the existence of your neighbor's particular myth.

Given none of the random myths, from christianity to the greek gods have been proven to be true, there is no reason to believe that there is a "master plan" or "great intelligence". There is no evidence suggesting this. If I walk into my house, look in all the rooms and see no one, I can say with confidence that "there is no one in the house." I have not proven there is no one in the house (because you cannot prove a negative), but I can say with confidence that there is no one in the house. If someone then tells me there is someone in the house, but they're invisible, it isn't my job to prove that wrong. It's the job of the person claiming the invisible guy is in my house.


Why do you think "science itself has proven ...... are part of a greater plan"? That's.... not accurate at all.

I didn't say quantum mechanics disproved the existence of god(s)... it destroys the concept of fate. So if your beliefs rely on fate... then your beliefs have been invalidated.

It is a simple mistake.

Do you think that emergent qualities of matter, like salt crystals growing, require divine intervention to work?

The theories of Ancient aliens visiting and affecting us in the past has more evidence supporting it that the existence of a supreme being.

If it's a pattern, then what planned the pattern? And where did the elements come from that made the salt compounds that grew into a crystalline structure under the right environmental conditions?
Go ask Victor, he even knows what came first, the chicken or the egg.

The answer you're looking for is supernovas.

Oh, and the egg came first... before then they were some sort of jungle fowl. Classic example of evolution.

There you go, the extra-terrestrial aliens with their magical technology were the original Gods of early man. That spains it! But then...where did the aliens come from? Do the aliens have gods? Or are they progressives like Biden/Harris who view human society like clay, something to mold to their hearts desire with bans and mandates. I would hope the aliens are more intelligent and civilized than the lizard people who claim to rule over us now.

That's easy. the rooster.
But seriously where are we at with Darwin since he stated that if we ever find irreducible complexity then his theory would be wrong.
As I'm sure you smarty-pants know relatively recent developments in microbiology have indeed uncovered a tremendous amount of irreducible complexity in everything

Vic, thanks for posting the ICR links. You should sign up for the free monthly periodical there's always some interesting bit of science coming out of there that I'm certain would bless you even though you don't believe in truth.
Some of it is way over my head being very technical. But you may dig it.
BeeGees, I really enjoyed our talk last night. Hope you had a great day at the logic office, even though you don't believe in logic. 😁

Stars are formed in nebula.... down the chain, you're right back at supernova.

Follow the chicken egg back far enough, you'll hit some sort of raptor....

That's about enough splainin I'm willing to do. You want more, go read a book...

You know, I just thought of something fun... I kinda want to see how it plays out. Write out your grand logical masterpiece as if we were sitting nodding our heads to your absolute truth creation hypothes... (my bad, wrong word... I wouldn't want to give validity to...) your thoughts.

So out with it, show us your logic...
