> I said it is a giant waste of existence realistically
That sounds like a personal problem, mate  -
> No, you are wrong again. I am saying it is arrogant fools like yourself who are conceived with their own beliefs that will destroy the world one day.
Oh, the irony…
> Overpopulation is a big problem. We're going to hit our capacity when we can't produce enough food. Then people die of starvation.
Yes, and the Catholic church and other religious organizations are trying to prevent birth control. Atheism isn't the cause of that in any regard– especially considering atheists have less children than christians on average.
> I watch science videos daily. I'm not against science; I welcome it
For someone who ~~claims~~ bullshits about how much they love science, you seem rather uninformed about a majority of the issues, mate  -
Science means "knowing and finding things out". It's the very definition of it.
Essentially, you're telling me that knowing facts about our world is bad and has gotten us nowhere. I guess you should probably get the fuck off the internet because science, which promoted the creation of computers via electrical and mathematical sciences, sucks so much, right? And you probably shouldn't eat any food from grocery stores because they were infiltrated by those dirty nutritional scientists, right? And you should give me your car while you're at it because it was developed by those mechanical engineer bastards who found out about combustion.
The truth is that you hate science because it proves your religion wrong.
Oh yeah, and religion has killed billions of people. Science hasn't. In fact, God himself probably killed more people than science ever has! -
> The Jewish people also were cleansing the world from false Gods like Baal where they sacrificed babies.
> says the religion that says it's perfectly fine to decapitate homosexuals or stone people to death who work on sundays so they can feed their starving kids
He also said to kill atheists and considered them impure and vial. Imagine what the world would be like if your little sky spirit had gotten his wish, hmm? We'd still be in the stone age in terms of science (kinda like where you are right now). -
Yo OGC, quit it with the memes and the irrelevant comments. This is the debate board, not 9gag.

> Or maybe you can stop with the over supercilious douche bag like attitude? It's not my fault if you went about this with redundant idiocy, so maybe you should be the one to shut up and know your place, child.
>
> It's pretty obvious thus far that you like to start pettifog over something that's nothing, I may not be reading according to you. But hey I'd rather not be reading than to be someone who's making himself look like a complete dumb-ass by continuously arguing in an immature matter? You understand, or was that too obtuse, boy.
>
> As I was saying before, this isn't a flaming post so if you want to argue you can gtfo, because bagging on Halleden for having his own ideals and or opinions, well, is flaming last time I checked. How about let's grow up and stay on topic as in being able to have a civilized conversation without cutting each other in the throat, or did you not understand what I was saying the first time around?
>
> You might want to get your info straight, don't think because you're a bit well known around here you can go on boasting and bragging and say what you will to whom you will, I'm not the guy to take it. Although I do not intend to have beef here.
>
> So what, he doesn't like animals, that's his problem. You're going to sit up here and cry about something that some one else doesn't have feelings for? I'd hate for you to be someone who likes debates. Yeh, guess I should definitely be the one shutting up here even if that means being one of the few people here who have common courtesy or sense for that matter.

> Oh and whilst I'm at it, why not point out that you made your point clear earlier, if you were any type of the guy I thought you were you would have left it at that. Eclipsians always fail at proving me wrong.
>
> Edit: To make things perfectly clear, I'm siding with no one. I simply see no point in where this is going.
PEOPLE ARE DEBATING!? QUICK! SOMEONE CALL THE INTERNET POLICE!
Edit: To be clear, I'm not a stick to people who dont deserve it. Sorry if I snapped at you. I was debugging a lot of stuff for my game and was stressed the duck out. Awaaaaay -
> Are you joking me? Just cause your view is evolution doesn't mean I look at the world the same way. Don't be so narrow minded. I love cats and dogs cause they show emotions like a human. I can connect with them. Fishes and turtles do not connect with me at all. It's just a materialistic love.
So because they don't show emotion, their lives are therefor meaningless to you? -
> God created life in different time periods.
Aaaaaand yet again you claim to have talked to God! -
> What honestly makes a mutation focus on one aspect of an organism?
The atmosphere had certain conditions that had to be met in order for the organism to survive. That's why fish eventually grew legs in order to escape predators in the water and why monkeys evolved a more developed brain to eventually, over years of mutations, reach the human species. I have no doubt in my mind that humans would've eventually be split into even more species because of their location had it not been for the sudden growth of transportation in 1000 CE.
You didn't pay attention in biology class, did you? -
> I used to believe in evolution, but I seen evidence that it is fallible.
Funny. I used to believe in creationism, but I've seen evidence that it is fallible. Unlike you though, I have the whole academy of the sciences to back me up. You have nobody credible. -
> I said figure cause I believe in God - don't be such an idiot.
So because you believe in god then evolution isn't true. Nice circular logic bro.

> I figure they are designed to do that.
Oh look guys, Helladen "figured" something! Time to go home scientists, Helladen's got it all figured out! -
> How did we go from talking about the theory of life to animals in the first place?
It's completely related. Shut up and don't jump into conversations you aren't reading. -
> I would never harm an animal. I'm just saying if the animal isn't a dog or cat; its life doesn't matter to me.
You're a sick fuck on so many levels. You have no compassion for anybody besides those who resonate with your life or beliefs. I've had turtles, rabbits, and fish– all of which I've loved and cared for. I see every animal's life as precious and unique, no matter how different it is from me. When I eat an animal, I have respect for it. We all rose out of the same atoms and dust and will one day return to those atoms and dust.
I refuse to associate with you. You've lost all of my respect. -
> God exists outside of space and time. He is eternal since time is something He created.
SO WHO CREATED THE CREATOR THEN!?
That's completely unrelated.
> Also; please explain to me why you don't think evolution is real?
Because it was disproven 100 years ago, duh. -
> It doesn't mention anything about animals in the Bible as important except we have dominion over them. How am I crazy? 
You're totally correct. We should totally abuse every single animal since we have dominion over them.
Screw animal rights, am I right?
THAT'S A TRUE CHRISTIAN RIGHT THERE! LET'S ABUSE ALL OF THE ANIMALS! -
> Eternal force called intrinsic energy.
I googled that and nothing came up. Nothing. -
> I don't think God cares about life aside from man.
Wow, you talked to God yourself and know what he cares about?
Stop bullshitting. You're saying that you know the intentions of a genocidal invisible sky man that he talks to you through your mind. Do you realize how ridiculous you sound right now? It's the very definition of insane. -
> It's actively maintained. The appearance of something does not make it valid or not valid.
So are 9/11 conspiracy sites. That doesn't make them any more valid. -
> There is tons of evidence on the site I linked.
A shitty '90s "science" site with no copyright and not made by a distinguished, peer reviewed scientist? How is that in any way evidence? I can whip up a similar site in Notepad in an hour. -
> Sex is a different type of feeling. You don't understand pleasure compared to what I am referring to. I don't want to argue about this; think what you want. I just find it hilarious that people would rather believe in random changes from one-cell organisms created by spontaneous generation. Which was disproved 100 years ago? Evolution can't work if you don't got life. I think science should figure out the start of life first before assuming things. It's kind of necessary or else the theory is completely refutable.
They already did find the start of life… Given the correct conditions, proteins synthesized organisms inside of a laboratory.
I'm giving up this debate. I used to be a Christian but quickly changed my beliefs once I took a long, hard look at science and the old testament. I used to "feel god's presence", but it's really nothing more than your mind if you think about it. You've been so brainwashed by religion that you refute science. Have fun trying to succeed in life in college and beyond, because it won't be easy with your lack of basic science fundamentals.
Your parents are abusive for making you believe in this shit. They've prevented you from learning science in a science-based world in favor of their own tradition. My dad has the exact same views as you and every day I hate that he ruined my perception of the scientific world.
Go ahead, refute me. Just remember that you are simply wrong. Call me arrogant, but it is the truth.
There is no God. -
> It could of been a metaphor for all we know.
Yeah! The strings in the string theory are really a metaphor for spaghetti noodles too! -
> God is an eternal force. FSM does not really have an explanation that makes much sense. Our universe had a beginning, so it needed to have something cause the _Big Bang_. _String Theory_ says waves move just like notes. it makes sense that God spoke the universe into existence just like a melody or song.
So you're saying that because subatomic particles move similar to sound waves, then some huge deity must've sang them into existance? That doesn't make sense at all. -
Can I ask you a question?
-Why do you think a book written 4000 years ago by prehistoric men is obviously the book that holds the secrets to the universe?
-I know you say you feel the presence of god, but how do you know it isn't the Greek gods, the Jewish god, or even the Aztec gods?
-Why are you so certain that it is the ONE and ONLY true book, so much that you decided to devote your whole life to it and defend it as 100% fact?
-Why are you putting so much faith into people who were uncivilized, starving, and stole stories from neighboring religions (all biblical stories mirror those of other religions in the area)?

No instincts in humans?!?! Ever had the desire to have sex? Ever had the desire to piss or shit? Ever had the desire to communicate with another human being? Ever had the desire to go to sleep?
The majority of what we do is instict. We know how to walk after birth, we know to trust our mothers after birth, our mothers know to look after us after birth, we instinctively know how to have sex, we instinctively use tools to solve our problems, we instinctively communicate with other human beings, and we instinctively "fall in love" (aka protecting our mates and remaining with them– although some people's environment corrupts this, just like what happens in animals). You're failing to realize that a majority of our lives are actually instinctual-- we have barely any actual control (and even then, your genetics/environment dictates a lot of the rest for you).
This is simple science, Helladen. I thought you were some huge science geek? you're not.
