If certain parts of the Bible aren't true because we have discovered evidence over time to the contrary, then how do you know what parts are true and which ones aren't? Doesn't that raise some serious credibility issues with the Bible? But I'll get back on topic again: The debate has...

Yes, I'm familiar with AiG and as I'm sure you know there are many websites that counter every claim made by them. But instead of posting links, why don't we engage in a discussion as Kinch suggested. What exactly is your "Theory of Creationism" and what evidence do you have that supports it?

I sincerely hope you didn't graduate with any kind of science degree from Ohio State as I'd be very disappointed if that's what they are teaching students these days. If someone truly had a "Theory of Creationism" that was better supported by the current evidence, they would undoubtedly win a...

Nothing about the Creation Museum is scientific. Over 800 scientists and educators (including many at Ohio State) in the three states closest to the museum have attested to the following statement (http://www.sciohost.org/states/):

Jeff Bebe: Some people have a hard time explaining rock 'n' roll. I don't think anyone can really explain rock 'n' roll. Maybe Pete Townshend, but that's okay. Rock 'n' roll is a lifestyle and a way of thinking... and it's not about money and popularity. Although, some money would be nice. But...

Get yourself a good woman and you won't have to iron....ever.

I'm still working my way through season 2 of "I Spy" but that's awesome to see that he did another TV show. I'll have to check it out!

Okay, so I was lazy and didn't look up the exact quote. It was from the physicist Steven Weinberg and he was quoted in the New York Times as saying: With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things...

Or to take your example to a further extreme, is it moral to take an innocent newborn male (supposedly created in perfect form by God) and chop the end of its penis off because the bible said so? As someone once said: Good people do good things, bad people do bad things, but only religion can...

Good question. Some of the most generous, selfless and philanthropic individuals in the world are not religious (such as Warren Buffett, Bill and Melinda Gates, George Soros, etc.). I have a hard time believing that any study exists that will show agnostics and atheists are less moral/law...

No worries, I understood what you meant by "fool". But to address your point, "because when you're dust none of it matters and you can't prove that it does". On the contrary it matters very much to me - this life is all I have so my actions and the way I live my life means everything to me. The...

That may be so, but can't you be selfish and moral at the same time?

I appreciate only being called a fool as I've been called much worse by others. :D And it frightens me to share this planet with so many others who think this life is just a throw-away and that there is something even better after you're dead. That as long as you repent and accept Christ you...

Which is exactly why your basis of morality is inferior to mine. I'm not motivated by fear of eternal damnation but instead by a sense of responsibility and compassion toward all humankind.

I'm not sure why you think that obtaining power is the ultimate goal of those who don't base their morality on divine authority. As BKB stated, humans are a social animal and dependent on others for survival. Helping out the fellow man also helps you. If god were proven to not exist, would...

Agreed. Sam Harris has a new book out on this subject (which I haven't read yet): "The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human Values" A morality system based on ancient texts that claim to be the word of god is inferior to one based on instinctive human values and the collective well...

Bob, thanks for giving a 13 year old the best anatomy lesson he could ever hope for. I'll always cherish the memories.

Note to media: This is NOT newsworthy: This IS newsworthy: Please note the difference.

+2 Seriously, if you are passionate about Buckeye football why would you even begin dating someone who didn't share that passion or at least understand how sacred football Saturdays are to you? Guys who complain about girlfriends and wives who schedule other events during games only have...
