This is the first I have heard of the comet-brick theory. I know that life finds very creative ways to survive and that the life that I know about contains spirit. I can also tell you with some certainty that neither the creation nor the evolution story tells the beginning of life as it happened because at the time, no one knew how to write it down as it happened.
And the essence of life may very well be God-nature and it would certainly "be in" dna as it is in all living matter, perhaps even all energetic matter, but the physical mass is- I think- only the basis of the living spirit that develops from it. Spirit "evolves" from flesh.

You can't prove evolution wrong. It is an observed phenomenon. After 150 years of withstanding attack, anything you say beyond "I don't believe" will be shot down. All you have is support Literal Biblical Creation is the Bible. If you look for other evidence, the story falls apart. You could follow the lies of the so-called Christians, but then you get stuck when facts are presented. For example, the source of the Colorado River is located at an altitude of 10,175 ft at the La Poudre Pass Lake. By providing a false source the Kaibib uplift (which is land, not water) with a maximum altitude of 9,241 feet and which forms part of the North Rim, you sound impressive as you get caught in a flagrant lie.

The arguments for the theory of Evolution have nothing to do with proving Creationism wrong. There is no evidence for Creationism. The sole basis for Creationism is an ancient anthology collected and determined on by the Catholic church and subsequently revised by several different denominations. These like other creation stories throughout the world make lovely literature, but lack any scientific evidence to support them as legitimate theories for life's existence on Earth.
The serious question here is why people who wouldn't want a first century surgeon to fix their appendix would give any more credibility to the stories of a first century theologian or scientist regarding the creation and evolution of the planet.

I believe in both. I can't imagine how the universe could have been created without a higher power behind it. That doesn't make sense to me. But at the same time I believe that evolution is just the way God created the earth. I'm not talking about us straight evolving from monkeys. There's much more to it than that. We know that species change over time, there are so many obvious examples of it. To say none of that is real is retarded. Accepting evolution as real doesn't mean that God didn't still create us.

I think that your initial premise, "those who defend evolution wants [sic] only to prove creationism wrong," is incorrect. I do not believe that disproving creationism is the intent of most who accept the concepts of evolution. I believe in evolution, but I also believe in God. For me, the notion that the earth and its various forms of evolved in no way conflicts with that belief. I simply believe that evolution and the story of creation are two different ways of talking about the same thing, just as I believe that the creation stories of other cultures are valid. However it happened, it is the same phenomenon - evolution and creation are simply two of many explanations for it.

Sure, evolution COULD be wrong. But in order to prove it wrong, you'll need to come up with a model that explains everything evolution does plus a number of things it doesn't. There are very few things that it doesn't have the potential to explain within its scope, so you're going to be hard pressed to do it, but *IF* you could, you'd disprove evolution.
Creationism though, is definately wrong. The evidence proves that creationism is not viable as a hypothesis.

good that you are looking for comprimise, but it will not work this time. Those who promote creationism are the ones with a "flatworld" mentality. Galileo was strongly opposed by the religious right during the end of the dark ages. The same mechanism is inplace with the religious right today. they want to discredit science in order to keep political control. It is not really a philosophical issue as much as it is an issue of political control.

If you believe that the bible is truth then it is true that God spoke things into existence. Not by comet or evolution. I do not and can not believe that I came from green slim tha crawled out of the ocean or that I came from primates. Besides there is no evidence of that just conjecture by a bunch of people that took one man theory (his hunch) and ran with it. I believe in God's word which is much more powerful and trust worthy than any mans hunch

Evolutionists find creationism totally impossible, and repulsive.
Like believing in the easter bunny.
It's a personal thing to someone who tries to prove one thing wrong, but never tries to prove thier own thing right.
Scientists aren't all atheists either. Look at Sir Isaac Newton, very religious and extremely scientific at the same time.
One thing no atheist can prove, is where LIFE itself came from.

You speak of faith and a leap of faith is to leap blindly into the great void of the unknown, unseen, nonfactual and unproven. We are only human and for some of us this is the real hurdle which is hardest to navigate. That is why so many grasp for facts and logic without realizing that logic itself can not explain the existence of the entire Universe or the conscious self.
