Why would anyone think just one person's ideas are an example of a whole group? Perhaps it's time to recognize that there are people of every age group with many different levels of experience and expertise rather than trying to make everyone the same here. Intelligence is not the only factor to be considered. Perhaps making comments that refer to all as being less intelligent because some have not attained maturity in age or experience indicates a similar lack.

I think it "illustrate the intelligence level" of the people that have said " I think man gave dog a wonderful name. The dog is always with man and a companion and friend as GOD should be.". Not most God believers.

Not to be sarcastic, but aren't you illustrating your own intelligence level by providing the translations for dog and God in languages that were also not in existence when the Bible was written?
I think the answerer lacked some verbal skills in trying to say that dog is a great name for that animal, as the way our dogs love us is reflective of God's love in that a dog cares nothing for how the world sees you, they are always glad to greet you at the end of the day, they love you no matter badly you treat them, etc.
Btw, the word dog in ancient Hebrew was keleb, and just to complete the Bible language translation line, in Greek it was kuon.

How sad that you feel a trill when insulting the vast majority of the world's population. If you are implying that most people who believe in a god don't believe that Evolution is completely valid, then you are just another media-educated pseudo-intellectual. If you think that Atheists are inherently better than believers, than you are just as bad as those who criminalize Atheism. You give the rest of us a bad name. Grow up.

If you were not so arrogant you could see he was talking about English. He never said in his question that Adam named it dog he was saying English.

Sure it does. There are a lot of Christians who are, sappy, just like there are a lot of non-Christians who are sappy. There are smart Christians, dumb Christians, clever Christians, slow Christians. I'm sure that lots of the Answerers who are NOT Christian will be able to give you samples of doping things that Christians have done or said. But there are dopey atheists and agnostics too.

Yeah got it some idiot calling a coincidence some thing spiritual when it is not but you seem a little bit upset by it. Maybe you shouldn't care so much, you did go a little over the top.
