Re: Fox News Blasphemy Challenge
Where Do I think the first single cell organism came from. Well not from God.
Everything is made from atoms. When lightning struck in the Earths oceans, energy caused these atoms to bond. these bonds formed amino acids and other Organic Matter. As the amino acids are made they bond with others. Eventually Proteins, Carbohydrates and Nucleic acids are formed from these bondings over millions and millions of years. Eventually membranes are created. With membranes the amino acids proteins and organic matter can be contained in an organism called a cell.
Keep in mind that the time from the first known single cell organism to the present complex orgamisms is about a 3 to 4 billion year difference. Now of course the beginnings of life is still a theory, and I realize it is probably more complicated than this.
Now evolution is nearly indisputable. I really though insane creationists were the only ones who don't believe in evolution, but I guess I was wrong. It is true scientists haven't replicated evolution in a lab, but come on evolution is everywhere. The thing is every organism changes. The Influenza Virus evolves every year to combat the new vaccines. In a recent New Scientist magazine they have found evidence of animals evolving back to what they used to be. for example they have found Dolphins with two small flippers near their tails.
When was the last time you went to school, in the 40's. If you go into a modern biology classroom and look in the textbook you'll find proof of evolution. I should know because I finished a biology course just last year. Going to a Catholic school even the religion teachers believe humans evolved from an ancient ancestor. Ok, Just pretending God exists, in an Infinitely huge universe like ours what do you think the chances are we are the only living organisms. And even if we are what are the chances god really cares?

Re: Fox News Blasphemy Challenge
Of course there are no half ape people in the streets. They would be too dumb to do anything. How can you explain how closely related humans and chimpanzees are. We share 98% of the same DNA. Maybe it's because we both evolved from a COMMON ANCESTOR.
And then there is the microraptor which is a small dinosaur with wings and feathers. The wings were used to parachute or glide from trees. Eventually the reptiles were able to fly for distances and evolve into birds.
Still not convinced. What about the Woolly Rhino, a large prehistoric Rhino that survived the last ice age. After the ice age its thick woolly coat was no longer needed so it begins to evolve needing less and less hair until you come to the present where Rhinos only have very thin short hair covering their body. The Woolly Rhino also shrank in size because the amount of nutrients necessary to sustain it was to much to take in, so the larger Rhinos slowly die out and smaller ones take their place.
Scientist recently found Pederpes finneyae which is a link between fish and amphibians. Some type of aquatic creature had to evolve in to the Pederpes finneyae in order to come out onto land.
Come on, Really, why would you believe a book written over 2000 years ago by some stupid superstitious religious fanatics instead of scientists when it comes to facts. God created the world in 7 days. yeah right.
Then you say, Wait I believe in Intelligent design, not creationism. Then I reply Intelligent Design is just a sorry attempt Christians use to include God in their creation. Do you ever believe facts from the bible. Turning someone into a pillar of salt, Don't think so.
You always trust the weather guy when it comes to weather so why wouldn't you trusts anthropologists when it comes to our evolution and history. Oh and by the way I'm not atheist I'm Catholic. You just need to know how to separate the fiction from the real meaning behind it.

Evidence of evolution occurring is in the fossils.
I really hope you are joking.

Re: Rational Response Squad on Nightline
Wait, sorry, I'm not out to promote Buddhism. All I meant to say was denying Buddha would be a denial of logic and reasoning, which is what true Atheists strive for. Just to clear up any misunderstanding.

Re: Rational Response Squad on Nightline
Ummmm... Ok ill agree with you on Allah but as far as Buddhism goes, Buddha is not worshiped as a God (by the majority of Buddhists). He is seen as a philosopher and unlike Allah, Jesus, Abraham, and whoever else, he never said you have to believe in him or you burn in the fire's of hell for the rest of eternity.
In fact he said, "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense. "
Buddha seems like he is the only one who got the message of peace, love, and reason out. Jesus, Allah, and Abraham tried to but failed horribly.

Re: Blasphemy Challenge
Proof war is not all about religion is in the ancient Hindu word for war. Their word for war also could take meaning as a "Desire for more cows". They fought because of their greed and need for power. The reason for the hundreds of millions that have died in war can not be blamed on one cause.
