The creationist tactic is like that deployed by the Nazis: repeat a lie often enough until it becomes "truth". "There are no transitional fossils" is something that has been known to be false for decades, yet creationists continue to repeat it as though it were a scientific fact. <BR/><BR/>Here you go, some <A HREF="http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CC/CC200.html" REL="nofollow">transitional forms</A>.Luis Cayetanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05210714337197709016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-53276382714377054132007-08-02T15:38:00.000-05:002007-08-02T15:38:00.000-05:00The rational response squad looked like real angry...<I>The rational response squad looked like real angry bitter people and lost the debate for sure.</I><BR/><BR/>Well, if you judge the results on emotional standards rather than who was actually telling the <I>truth</I>.

You probably missed (or if you didn't, I guess you didn't understand it) the point about how a single act does not determine a person's entire character. What Matt was exposing was the shallowness and simple-mindedness of Comfort's arguments. So I can understand why they appeal to <I>you</I>. They do not convince anyone with any degree of intellectual sophistication.<BR/><BR/><I>You system of logic is so flawed and your boasting about how you think it is right.

The rational response squad looked like real angry bitter people and lost the debate for sure. <BR/><BR/>At that Matt website he claimed "Have you ever told the truth in your life? Yes? Then you're a truth-teller."<BR/><BR/>This is hilarious. What a fallacy, if you lie once and tell the truth a million times it still makes you a liar. Try it with anything else also. Have you not murdered anyone? Then your not a murderer but if you have then you are a murderer. If you commit adultery once that makes you an adulterer and ask your wife of you are a non-adulterer because you avoided it a million times. Your wife still considers you one because you did it once. <BR/><BR/>You system of logic is so flawed and your boasting about how you think it is right. It is laughable but truly sad but expected.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-78575538727365322872007-08-01T17:06:00.000-05:002007-08-01T17:06:00.000-05:00That's okay.

Comfort knows about as much about evolution as a gerbil knows about tensor calculus, and his design arguments are hysterical (a banana! a Coke can!). Our own Matt D. runs the Iron Chariots wiki, where Comfort's silliness gets <A HREF="http://wiki.ironchariots.org/index.php?title=Ray_Comfort" REL="nofollow">smacked down</A>.<BR/><BR/>Also, <A HREF="http://www.rationalresponders.com/" REL="nofollow">here's the video</A> from Rational Responders, of their recent demolition of Comfort and Cameron on a TV debate.

To answer your "Starlight takes hundreds of thousands to millions of years to reach us" question it will take take a minute but can be answered. First lets ponder that this not a good argument for an Omniscient, Omnipresence almighty God. He can do what he wants he is God he can make all things happen but lets try to answer it to understand it. We have discovered things that can possibly answer how it happened. It is a complicated topic because it involves velocity and speed and things of that nature. Dr. Jason Lisle answered this question recently in <A HREF="http://www.creationontheweb.com/content/view/167/" REL="nofollow">an article</A><BR/><BR/>There are several examples of different possibilities such as Gravitational Time-Dilation model based on Albert Einstein's theory of relativity where time travels slower on earth then things at the speed of light and alternate synchronization convention where on earth here<BR/>we have time zones (because of earths rotation) where you can leave 4 o' clock in Kentucky you arrive at in Colorado at 4 o' clock. It it the same in space where if you leave at 4 o'clock on a star you arrive at earth at 4 o' clock.<BR/><BR/>One to ponder for the big bang and evolutionist: Population 3 stars should be all over the universe but you guessed it there are none to be found just like no transitional fossils found.
