    Words are God, Words require order to work. God is order. If chaos was God, we'd all be speaking random garbled nonesense to each other with no order. We'd barely be able to comunicate
    OK, I I'm done with you now. I just can't live in your medieval head. Try reading Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder.

      Don't start me on evolution, another irrational system.
      If you believe in evolution, explain how a bumble bee will continually grow a wing that had no practical use until 75% complete.
      Why, under natural selection would a bee keep selecting for an adaptation that has no use. A 1% Bee wing has no use so why keep selecting for it over generations?

        You think the words written by .....John? .....in his gospel ......were the most profound words ever written ?

        That's an opinion , it's not a fact

        And in the same way we know that if you heat up water it will boil .....a fact proven by science ........you cannot , apart from playing verbal tennis as you and other Christians do , give any proof that there is a god

        Nothing at all

        A shin bone , photos , fingerprints , recordings of him speaking , film footage of him performing miracles

        Nothing

            I'm using logic and reason to prove God (our creator)exists. If you object to my logic explain how you create something(our universe) from nothing...in science that is not possible.

            What to you are the most profound words ever written?

                I think you are totally missing the point.

                  No explanation, just a metaphorical pat on the head and a stern "No boy"
                  Socially clumsy at best.

                    Try conveying a point instead of recommending books you probably don't understand yourself.
                    If God is chaos, why are you recommending that i read a book which is an orderly set of words, the complete opposite of chaos...

                          Couldn't agree more. Though I'd happily chip in for either side for a couple of pints.

                              Evolution doesn’t have foresight. Earlier wings could have been used for rowing and skimming across the surface of water. Some insects still use wings primarily for this purpose today. Natural selection could then result in improved propulsion efficiency and techniques over time to a stage where some insects evolved to spontaneously hop off the surface of water - and these inherited advantageous traits resulted in descendants eventually adapting further to winged-based flight. So wings used for other purposes by ancestors eventually adapted for flight through opportunity and evolutionary advantage, not with flight in mind from the outset.

                                Hello Baloo. I don't think Bee's wings were used for rowing or skimming across water. If they were, they'd still be able to do it today. They'd also be placed lower on the body enabling actual contact with water. And the wing material would be more like a flipper.
                                Also, wouldn't it be a huge co incidence that an appendage supposedly perfectly adapted for "paddling" in water, is also perfect for flight.
                                These are harsh Darwinian selective pressures, the idea that a bee's wing was continually selected for because it could "paddle a bit" is a bit flimsy.

                                From what i gather, you accept that God could exist.
                                With that in mind he could be responsible for creating all human life.
                                When Quantum physicists suggest that we are living in a hologram, are part of parallel universes or that our whole existence is a complex mathematical equation being played out in a pre ordained fashion(God). Anything is possible, what ever the truth it will be absolutely mind blowing. I just wish people would open their minds a bit
