Well, I was watching Fox News Sunday and, again, the Power Player of the Week segment was a repeat. It was about Joe Gibbs and some school of his to help troubled youths. I watched some of it. During it he tossed a wristwatch toward a crowd of his students and used the fact that a person has to have made something so complicated as an analogy to the supposed necessity of someone having had to have created a world as complicated as this one or it presumably can't exst.
But the main lesson I got was this: The Swiss (famous for clock making) and the Chinese (inventors of the clock) are gods.
Did I learn the wrong lesson?

he. I'm not sure if anyone here gets that I was making a bad elaborate joke. I thought someone would have pounced on that more directly.
Oh well.
Though, I think memere got it, or she seems to have.

You went the other way around, flipping the example and the lesson.
He is saying that something as complicated as a watch doesn't just come together by chance. It is planned, and carefully put together. (by people, in this case) His analogy was that the world, the universe, so much more complex than a watch, must then also be planned and carefully put together. (by God)

No. These shows are way out there. I don't believe they are real and they are just for entertainment. that's why I don't watch them. Come one, a Swiss watch? Comparing life to that is so stupid and no analogy can be made from that unless the point is, life is complicated. And the Swiss and Chinese are not gods, just geniuses.

The Swiss and the Chinese???????? I don't savvy??? Fox News is your rescourse? Bible doctrine has foretold our future with total accurate details that is totally ignored by all faith and goverments (Eph 4:5). No one knows what the real issue save one, and that is the faithfull and discrete slave class.(Do you know who they are?) They are not Gods, they are spiritual anointed(adopeted) sons/(male or female} of god. The good book tells us that these ones are the ones that knows whats going to happen to mankind. Good suff to know.

no you're not, nothing's wrong with you, you were brainwashed by the subconcious hidden message behind the broadcasted news. try to record the news and run it backwards and you'll hear the hidden message

Based on your question, I doubt that you have thought processes.
