I certainly don't spew out 'facts' about the bible that I know nothing about. So why do some non-scientific types insist on saying "well evolution is not real, because clearly you can't see it nowadays" or "evolution doesn't makes sense, because the eyeball is obviously too complex to be made from evolution". Blah, blah, etc.

Why don't they take some classes in evolution before they rip it up? What's the point in arguing something when you clearly don't understand the theory behind it?

One question: where did this stat come from that nearly half of the scientists in the world don't believe in evolution?

And what experiments support creationism?

There are plenty of experiments that support evolution. What about all the dog breeds? That is an example of how one species (wolf) has been selected to produce drastically different breeds. A chihuahua looks nothing like a great dane, but they still came from a common ancestor.

hmmmm alot of people say Jesus Christ is their proof of creationism. So where is the proof, beyond you just saying his name? Do you have a VHS tape of him and the things he did? Or fingerprints? DNA? I'm not seeing the 'evidence' in the name Jesus Christ.

Because they are brainwashed to think fairy tales are facts.

You have stated:
"non-scientific types insist on saying "well evolution is not real, because clearly you can't see it nowadays" or "evolution doesn't makes sense, because the eyeball is obviously too complex to be made from evolution". Blah, blah, etc."

My answer to that is: Are you sure you are an evolutionist? You speak of things that you cannot see with the naked eye, but evolutionists seek to make their theory visible by way of science. Yet in spite of their attempt to make the obvious apparent with their theory, they cover it up so that not even the so call geniuses can see it, let alone prove it.

Non-scientific people, which I am assuming according to you are Christians, have made the claim that what scripture teaches about creation is not a theory, but rather the truth. The proof that we have that scripture teaches and gives us the answer to creation is Jesus Christ our Lord. Jesus Christ believed (and still believes) so much on the words that are found in scripture, that He hung on a cross for hours suffering and after that great suffering for you and for me and for all, he died on that same cross.

Now find me a scientist that is willing to die a painful dead for those he loves and those who hate him, and perhaps I will listen. Better yet, find me a scientist that can resurrect himself from such a painful death and I will take the classes. Even better yet, find me a scientist that can redeem the world, and I will acknowledge him.

There is only one truth, one way and one life, and that is Jesus Christ the Son of God. In Him I have put all my trust Alleluia!

I have taken classes in both.

You cannot as you said, "prove" either creative design OR evolution. Scientific "proof" requires a "testable" model. It might be considered "Blah" by you, but it IS non-the-less the scientific definition of the word "proof." You even acknowledged that evolution is in fact, a "theory."
I understand the theory of evolution. I agree with the principle of "survival of the fittest" but that is not the same as evolution.
Both theories have their share of "evidence" but no means to duplicate events and so eventually both require some degree of hypothesis and "faith."
After examining both I choose tha latter.

Well because you and other people get on here and try to discount the bible, and in fact God, as if no one will say anything.
The fact is that those of you who believe in evolution will always differ from those of us who know the truth, the way and the life is through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. You have your ideas and thoughts, we have ours. Sadly, the only way to find out who is right is by death, and none of us can come back and say "you know, the evolution folks were right, there is no God".

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and to die and find out there isn't; than to live my life like there is no God; only to die and find out there is!

Evolution is NOT proven, it is a theory. The bible, on the other hand, DOES have historical evidence proving it's content. I am a Christian who believes in evolution, Microevolution that is. Meaning evolution within a species not from one species to another (Macroevolution). You don't have to be the "scientific type" to understand that.

Maybe because many scientist do not believe evolution could happen (nearly half). There are just too many problems associated with evolution. Experiments today do not support it. Many do support creation.

To be fair, debate can be a useful tool for learning, if people ever learned how to debate properly. And the two examples you gave as "throw away" arguments are actually currently holes in evolutionary theory. The plus side, is that the bible is holy like swiss cheese (as in full of holes). It might be worth it to you to read, so if they start pulling genisis out on you when you're trying to have a scientific discussion, you can shut that down. Reading is easy.

They can argue it whether you like it or not. The problem is that people like you take the THEORY of evolution and make it the FACT of evolution. Provide definite proof of evolution and you'll stop getting arguments.

This is a non debatable subject. No one on this planet knows how this earth was trully formed, including humanity. No matter what you believe in, it's all belief an opinion. I respect everyone's opinion, but when someone tells me theirs is a fact I lose respect for that person.

Why don't try experiencing God's love before dissing Christians?
Jesus loves you and so do we
