And the ideas that he proposed. Example; he stated that men would fight over women, this is the reason Darwin said that women are not as intelligent as men. He said that because men had to think about how to win, they developed their brians, while women were just sitting there while the battled it out.

Do you truly support Darwin and his ideas?

I am on a Jewish website geared for couples that want to get married (as opposed to date forever). One gentleman wrote me last year, and I replied to him. Due to years of internet experience, I determined he was not serious and did not write back.

A year later (January 2008) he wrote me again, and said he liked my profile. I am giving him a chance. I was a bit concerned how he gravitated more towards email rather than calling, but he finally confessed that he lost his job. It is hard for him to call me from New York City due to his phone plan, and can only call from the suburbs when he is at his parents. I live in the midwest. Anyways, I understand the stress he is under, and I write to him everyday. He calls about once a week. He says in the 3 years he has been online, I have the best profile. I periodically reactivate my account and notice that he is still logging in regularly.

Is this guy truly interested, or just wasting my time? Why is he still shopping online?

What do you think?

The evidence for Darwinism is not only grossly inadequate, it's systematically distorted. I'm convinced that sometime in the not too distant future, I don't know, maybe twenty or thirty years from now people will look back in amazement and say " How could anyoe have believed this?" Darwinism is merely materialistic philosphy masquerading as science, and people are reconizing it for what it is.
I believe that science is pointing strongly toward design. To me the development of the embryo cries out DESIGN. The Cambrian Explosion the sudden appearence of complex life, with no evidence of ancestors is more consistent with design than evolution. Homology in my opinion is more compatible with design. The origin of life certainly cries out for a designer. None of these things as much sense from a Darwinian perspective as they do from a design perspective.

are not really material places, why is it so difficult to admit the possibility of them being just an idea, a fable, a way of leading people towards goodness instead of evil?
If bible is full of symbols who decides what is the symbol and what the real thing?

I have recently read an article about this man (St. Joseph of Copertino) and I was wondering of this is actually true. Here it is (sorry I can't remeber the source):
The best known example is St. Joseph of Copertino, the 17th-century Italian saint. More than a hundred flights were officially recorded during his life. At the slightest inspiration—beautiful picture, a sweet melody—he would be swept high into the air, soaring to the ceiling of a church and remaining suspended in mid-air, sometimes for fifteen minutes, sometimes for two hours, in full view of eminent witnesses. Today St. Joseph of Copertino is the patron saint of those who travel by air.

How many rude, nasty trouble lovers will come to R&S this weekend to insult people who have faith or some kind of religion?

They claim they don't believe in God but they just cannot stay away.

They call people mean names and accuse them of being uneducated because they believe in the God that created the universe.

They say they believe that the flu is proof of evolution, and then tell us that we are idiots for believing God created the Heavens and Earth.

Give me a number, how many do you think will make here this weekend?

I hear people arguing about the 10 commandments all the time and then I hear others saying that all you need to do is "believe in Christ" because we are saved by "Grace" but, I thought believing in Christ means following his example (keeping the commandents) not just believing he is/was a real person. I really think that the commandments are a test of obedience(which protect us) and salvation is God`s gift to us because we love HIM and we show HIM by trying to keep his commandments. What do you all think?

Why do you suppose that many Scientists and Astronauts turn to God?
I mean look at some of the smartest people in History: Most believed in God

People like:

Jonathan Wells
Stephen Meyer
Lee Strobel
Sir Isaac Newton
Albert Einstein thought of a higher power

Do you suppose that they Know something you don't, maybe they have open minds and realize that evolution does not give the answers? Maybe just maybe they realized that in order for the world to be the way it is, it had to be created?

What do you think?

Do you think that if everyone in the middle east would suddenly turn atheist, that you would still have people that would intentionally kill themselves and unarmed civilians?

Do you think that women would still not be allowed to drive and that homosexuals would be executed in some countries?

Wouldn't he? In evolutionary biology one of the contributing reasons for hominids to start bipedalism was to well display the sexual organs. Frontal nudity may have spur early humanity to walk erect. Isn't that neat?
