So a hole in evolution is that we don't see innumerable transitional forms everywhere?

But... But you do see innumerable transitional forms everywhere.... Even if we don't use the fossil record, (which is millions, not thousands, of years old) it can be seen!!!

Bacteria, single celled organisms such as an amoeba, then multicellular organisms, then invertebrates like starfish and jellyfish, then vertebrates such as sharks with a cartiligous skeleton, then boney fish such as the coelcanth, then amphibians, then reptiles, then crosses between reptiles and mammals such as the duck billed platipus, then mammals, from mammals we have primates, such as the smaller monkies, then we have larger primates such as the great apes like chimpanzees, with whom we share a common ancestor, then we have a fossil record of Homo Erectus, Homo Neanderthalis, Homo Sapiens Idaltu, and then us....

Homo Sapiens Sapiens..... HUMANS....

Transient is this world; like phantoms and dreams,
Substance it has none. Grasp not the world nor your kin;
Cut the strings of lust and hatred; meditate in woods and mountains.
If without effort you remain loosely in the "natural state," soon Mahamudra you will win and attain the Non-attainment.
-Tilopa, "The Song of Mahamudra"

Namaste

Blessings

Peace and Love

Theists, Atheists, Agnostics, Penguins, Zebras, Celebrities etc DO NOT ANSWER THIS QUESTION. OK? (I do allow answers from the occational duck billed platapus though)

If the Pope were to sign on to YA answers and hang out in the R&S section, what would he choose for a name (considering that he doesn't want anyone to know he is the Pope)?

I'm going for a record, a question in R&S with no answers and see what happens. Those who ignore me and still answer will be cursed with an chronic anxiety about the weather.

I have seen no papal encyclicals dealing with morality as it applies to extraterrestrials or "aliens". Science tells us they exist. How can we make them part of our religion?

If someone(Muslim) lives in USA or Europe, he usually has to pay taxes(let's say 30% of his income). will that tax be considered as zakaat (and khums if shia) by his religion??


**tax is to help the government build the country and help the poor ,it's the same thing with zakaat and Khums, right??**

If a man was going to stab your child, would you not prevent this person from doing so if you could? So why when the act has been accomplished do you protect this criminal from being prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law? If he would kill and you would kill him to prevent him from killing, then why would you not kill him after the fact? He has sentenced himself by his actions be done with his crime, permanently!

Mankind, after Adam and Eve's fall, are lower than the angels. But originally, were we above them?

Christians on R&S repeatedly whine about atheists answering questions asked of other Christians. When someone asks a question about magic, there are all kinds of dire warnings about going to Hell. Want atheists and pagans to hold our tongues, try it yourselves. If not, stop whining when we point out the flaws in your mythological structure. Do you not see the hypocrisy or is it just okay because God said it was?

I've heard people say the thing that's so great about the Bible is that it's a timeless book, that is the stories and lessons in the Bible that were written so long ago are still true today, things like don't kill, don't steal, ect. But there are also things that are just crazy, things that most Christians just ignore these days, things that God was very clear about, things like "Doing any kind of work on Sunday is punishable by death" or "Pigs have cloven feet but don't chew their cud so therefore unclean and are not to be eaten." But when asked about these things people will say, "Oh, that's the Old Testament, as in obsolete." But then the same people use that Lividicus passage to excuse hatred toward gays. Should we take the Old Testament seriously and kill anyone on sight seen working on Sunday? Or should we just denounce it as an Old Book and forget about the Ten Commandments? God was probably just kidding anyway...

I want to know what you think the difference is...

A friend and I have been arguing about it for some time now, and I just want some more thoughts on it.

Thank you.

people cant accept there are things beyond our comprehension. religion therefore is born. just as people worshipped the sun thousands and thousands of years ago. If religion was no more the world could move forward faster and possibly without war. Religion teaches morals but you dont need religion to have morals

They are two TOTALLY separate and unrelated groups of people!

I am so sick of being asked stupid questions because I am embracing Quakerism. It is getting on my last nerve. Why are people so mis-informed and ignorant?
