You find the evolution of the eye or visual senses quite detailed in nature. Quite primitive species as rainworms use their whole skin to "see", because the have photo-sensitive nervous cells there. |

Dear atheists, please explain this. |

All i gotta say for the athiests (not being mean though) is - "The probablity of life originating from an accident is like an unabridged dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing shop." |

I think a better question to ask is how did any creature, including single-celled organisms, develop any senses to sense the environment without first having consciousness to know it was in an environment. |

...Did none of you ever take biology in school? This is painful to read. |

I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves. - Christopher Hitchens

The only thing I don't understand here is... are atheists supposed to answer this or not? |

Creationists - willfully trotting out the same tired old questions that have all been debunked thousands of times. But thanks for helping us spread the facts by bringing them up again and again so whole new groups of people can see. |

So, here's my understanding of the atheists' point of view: |

Seriously? A complex being that existed somehow before there was a universe, and he's not magic? How does that work? Are you saying he was some kind of alien astronaut, with technology capable of creating and populating an entire universe? |
|
Which is where Faith comes in, Darkmatters. I have faith that there is a God, despite the fact that as you pointed out, very likely he would have to fail to conform to the laws of the universe as we know them. Do I think God used some kind of technology or is some kind of alien astronaut? No, I think he is a being with abilities that we do not understand. I wouldn't label it as "magic" though, simply because I don't know how God is capable of doing what he can do. |

What I don't understand is how you oscillate between suggesting that "religious scientists" and others have evidence for God, and saying that God is just a matter of faith and that evidence isn't applicable. Aren't these two in opposition? Which is it; God can be inferred from the universe, or God is solely a matter of faith? |
|
^ Bingo! |
|
Because it seems to me that mainstream science, no matter how much proof, will never accept that God exists. Also, we're talking about proving definitively that a creator exists. While I don't think we can prove God himself personally is real, I think we can prove that some biblical stories really did occur, thus lending validity to the Bible, and Christianity in general--hope that clears that up. |
