budaatum:And that is because there is an INTELLIGENCE behind it to make it happen. |

shadeyinka: Indeed. That is actually why I lost interest in these debates. 4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4 (NIV) |

budaatum:My problem with this evolution of the solar system (even though I was describing evolution of living things) is that somehow, ENTROPY just seem to be reducing immediately after the big bang/inflation of the universe. This break every known physical law for entropy is ALWAYS increasing. Entropy can only decrease if an EXTERNAL constraining force compels entropy of the system to reduce. In the beginning, there exist no single atom. After the big bang/inflation, neutrons, protons and electrons just found a way to order themselves as single units. Its just like sand, gravel, lime, water are scattered over the earth with a high entropy. Some people (Dangote and the Bricklayer) brought these things together to make cement to build a house of lower entropy. Sand, gravel, lime and water ordinarily cannot build a house EXCEPT there exist an EXTERNAL force to the system. Comprehende? |

budaatum: My point is that as long as there is a mechanism by which outcomes result, the notion that there is no intelligent, personal creator is demonstrably false. |

Ihedinobi3:Perfectly said! |
Re: Waging A Bet Against An Impossible Statistical Odd by Ihedinobi3: 8:08pm On Feb 08, 2021 |
LordReed: You could be right. But you could also be wrong. And if you're right, I don't know it any better from your response. |

LordReed:Too bad! |

Re: Waging A Bet Against An Impossible Statistical Odd by LordReed(m): 8:11pm On Feb 08, 2021 |
Ihedinobi3: There are treatments of the facts of evolution for all levels of understanding even kindergarten so if you really want to have a proper understanding seek those out. Commenting on strawman arguments won't get you closer to understanding. |
Re: Waging A Bet Against An Impossible Statistical Odd by Ihedinobi3: 8:16pm On Feb 08, 2021 |
LordReed: I think you mistake me. I think that I'm reasonably educated in the subject. Therefore, the ignorance that you ascribe to me is undefined to me. That is, I don't know what you think that I don't know. So, I can't really agree or disagree with you. Still, never mind. I really don't care all that much for these discussions anymore. |

shadeyinka: "Survival of the fittest" is only 1 mechanism of evolution and not the whole story. Just thought you should be aware. 2 Likes 1 Share |

shadeyinka:Yes I quoted Genesis, or rather, what some smart individual(s) wrote in the Book of Genesis. It describes a chaos out of which order arose, and is a indication of evolution. 1 Like |

Ihedinobi3: I won't since you claimed you know enough about evolution so I am sure you know how you strawmaned it. |

budaatum:The subject was GOD! Who CREATED/MADE/FORMED the Universe. |
Re: Waging A Bet Against An Impossible Statistical Odd by budaatum: 8:38pm On Feb 08, 2021 |
shadeyinka:I have the feeling that you think randomly peppering with big words gives meaning to what you write even though it does not. Take Entropy. You claim it seems to be reducing but I bet you can not provide evidence for its reduction. I am afraid non-comprehende. But I expect you'd blame me instead of the meaninglessness of your random use of words. 1 Like |

LordReed:I know, thats why I said increase in complexity ... It's like starting with several small books which could be compiled to produce an entirely different bigger book. |
