What does "Intelligent Design" even mean?

[amy31416]

Oh. I know how to chill. See?

Well okay then, you have me convinced that you can chill. I mean, what better evidence of a person enjoying life than a good, old-fashioned rickroll (which I didn't fall for, much to your chagrin.)

C'mon drop the proselytizing, what're you really made of? Do you have a sense of humor? Do you play wiffle ball? How about badminton? Live a little, man. You depress the shit out of me.

Or are you like Reverend Lovejoy?

You've ruined my fun for everyone.

Yep. Hence the mezuzah (the doorframe thing.)

My only education in Christianity is Catholic--and believe me, it is not taught as anything that represents anything, you are taught to believe that it is actually the body and blood of Christ, it's not a metaphor, it's not representative, you are supposed to believe that the magic that the priest performs makes wine the actual blood of Christ.

On one side of my family, mostly Jews, a few religious, most not--they would never have an open casket. On the other side, Orthodox Catholicism. I had an aunt at my dad's funeral who was taking pictures for christ's sake. Creepy.

Actually, the mezuzah does not have anything to do with the blood of the lamb but rather to this bit of scripture.

Deuteronomy 6:5-9 5 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. 6 Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart. 7 Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you rise. 8 Bind them as a sign on your hand, fix them as an emblem(1 )on your forehead, 9 and write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. NRS

Emphasis mine.

The part you read there about binding them on your hand and fixing them as an emblem on your forehead is in reference to the Tefillin.

Here is a web site about these items.

Yeah, there is another religion that claims to be Christian too... it is called Santeria. It is a mixture of Voodoo and Christianity. They also believe in magic.

I'm Not Like Reverend Lovejoy, But...

I try to have a sense of humor. Wiffle ball is okay, although I haven't played it since I was 10. Badminton is not as intense as tennis is. If I depress you, then allow me to cheer you up with this video.

the foolishness of your superstitious belief in Darwinian evolution over against the obvious and scientific truth of intelligent design

Jesus Christ, where do you people come up with this stuff?

You're still... - But I thought you were... - ??????????

Weren't you banned?

Edit : o.0 Oh... Guess you've been hanging out in the "intelligent" threads. Damn, haven't seen you in a looooong while.

Answer Me This, O Blasphemer

Did the designs on these butteflies' wings evolve?

I bet if you pull the exif data from that image it would read something like this. "Adobe Photoshop CS3".

Wow

You're unbelievable. Just can't except the evidence for intelligent design, can you?

It seems like you have a predisposed disgust with the idea of transformation; including apes, color changes, design changes, etc. What's the problem? This is a very strange disorder.

There is No Problem...For the Creationist

No, I don't have a problem with changes in species of organisms (adaptations). It's just that those changes are limited in what's called "microevolution," and I affirm that. However, what we never observe in organisms is changes through the kingdoms, phylums, classes, orders, families, genuses, and species, which would be "macroevolution" or "Darwinian evolution." The former is scientific, while the latter is superstitious.

There is no difference between "micro" and "macro" evolution other than time.

Its like saying its possible to walk 10 feet (micro), but its impossible for man to have migrated from Africa to the rest of the world (macro). Its the exact same process in either case, the only difference being how long it took.

Even if it were true it's evidence of nothing.

See: pareidolia

The term pareidolia (pronounced /pæraɪˈdoʊliə/), referenced in 1994 by Steven Goldstein,[1] describes a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon, and hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- — beside, with or alongside — and eidolon — image (the diminutive of eidos — image, form, shape). Pareidolia is a type of apophenia.

I could've sworn you fell victim to the 2nd Crusade against Psy-Ops Trolls led by Pope Randy IV, shortly after the 4th Truthers' War.
