  3. evolution for the rational and logical.

    creation for the closeminded, gullible, ignorant, and just plain dumb.

  5. wow all those lights grew by themselves?

  6. Creation for those who are not intelligent and have to go by what other people say so they can "believe" the same exact thing.

  9. for those that doubt creationism.. read darwins black box by michael behe, or tornado in a junk yard. I am not pushing religon here.. at all. But something made this planet. It could have never just HAPPENED POOF. There are no missing links for any sets of species. Creationism has more facts behind it then evolution does. Not saying religon is the greatest thing ever.. but something may be sitting back and watching like we are some little experiment. COOOL. (and great shots of earth)

  10. What about thunder and lightening? Is that the Gods showing their anger? Of course not - scientist now have a rational, scientific explanation for what people hundreds of years ago could not be explained, and therefore, was attributed to God. Science, in due time, will explain how the universe is created.

  11. So the entire universe was created in 7 days? I find that a little hard to believe. To all of my Christian friends on this website, I recommend you see the video: ZeitGeist. That video has more evidence than Christianity will ever have.

  12. I think the best part about all of this is that these are all fake pictures.

  13. The "why are there still apes" argument is just plain ignorant. First, we did not evolve from ANY ape that is still around. Second, even if we had, it wouldn't make a difference. There is nothing that says that once speciation occurs that the original species must perish. sheesh. Use your brains, people. Learn the actual mechanics of something before you dismiss it...and reading tracts is not an acceptable way to learn about evolution.

    Sorry to the owner of the blog. Those are some VERY awesome pictures.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Haha. You Creationists got owned.

    ReplyDelete
  15. if evolution is correct why are there still apes? LOL

    you sir, are an idiot! you must not have any idea about what you are actually talking about - the theory of evolution has never said humans evolved FROM the great apes; they are not simply 'behind'. all it says is that we share a common ancestor

    maybe if you actually sat down and learnt something about evolution instead of just spouting your jesus mumbojumbo, and then came to a rational, informed decision people would take you more seriously

  16. There are no missing links for any sets of species.

    Point set, MATCH

  17. The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib woman was concieved by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree..... yeah, makes perfect sense!


    Even evolution isnt this insane.

    ReplyDelete
  18. the same argument that's been going on since the start of time..."my way's better...No, my way...my God can beat up your God.." you people are all idiots.

    There must be acceptance of each view point...who knows what is right or wrong? Only one way to tell, and you won't be coming back once you know the answer.

    however, if the creationists are wrong, oh well! So they're wrong their whole life... but, if the evolutionists are wrong? Eternal damnation? Forever? Yeah, that's a long time.

    ReplyDelete
  19. ok, so here is a thought.... why isn't it possible for creation and evolution to both be true? the bible mentions that a "day" to god can be like 1000 years to us; so it is possible that "7 days" could have been 4.5 billion years. people try to take everything so literally, and feel such a need to be right about things that they will close their mind off to the possibility of common ground.

    ReplyDelete
  20. If Evolution is true, where are the fossil records of the transitional species? What organ did the eye evolve from? What was it before it was an eye?

    ReplyDelete
  21. No 7 days could not be 4.5 billion years because in Genesis it says after every day of creation "and the evening and the morning..." so this means it was in a week due to Time. Yes God is not bound by time but our feeble minds cannot comprehend that.

  23. how fake are those pictures...

    ReplyDelete
  24. who knows to say who is right and who is wrong. All I know is that "GOD" made the earth and man in seven days. BULLSHIT Just because some book said so...Who wrote this book...Mother Goose. Some all powerful man said one day let there be light and there was come on now you have got to be kidding. The "BIBLE" is either a great comic book or a terrible horro story. You choose

    ReplyDelete
  25. your great hero Darwin even said on his death bed, "it was just a theory".. stop questioning other peoples beliefs, and go snuggle up to your relatives (the apes) in the jungle... mkay?

  26. Evolution/Creation you are both just cvaught in the mindless war that has been going on for over 5,000 years. here is a link to some food for thought (for those of us who REALLY know how to think)

  27. I'm a Christian guy, yet I refuse to debate something so pointless. If people ask me questions about my religion, I will answer, but I'll never try and force anything on people. I listen to different peoples theologies on life, yet at the end of the day we will all choose something to believe in. I choose to live in faith, and no 'reasonable' person should ever have a problem with that.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Right on with that, I can listen to them insult til the end of time but it seems to me that they sure won't convince me, not because of my ignorance but because I choose my faith/belief/love for God and no one could take that away...

    ReplyDelete
  29. Evolution is a guess...at best...

    ReplyDelete
  30. I love how people don't understand the meaning of the word "theory." It's hilarious. A theory is NOT a "guess." I'm honestly sick of having to educate people on what is honestly 8th grade science.

    For the retard that questioned the transitional fossil record and where the eye came from, go read some stuff at talkorigins.com.

    ...and to the condescending prick who said "here's a link for those of us who actually think"...you have no idea how ironic that is.

    One more before I go...to all the christians who say "well, if you're wrong you go to hell, so I'm going to believe and go to heaven"...you are believing out of fear, not love. So, if there IS a hell, I'll see you there. Schmuck.

  31. the bible (old testament and new testament) are books and thats it...
    people just forget common sense and believe what they say
    kinda like scientology
    there all the same thing, a pile of mumbo jumbo that people read to feel safe at night
    sure the morals are great but you dont need to praise some guy who could possibly be made up


    ps i grew up christian but then i learned to think for myself

    ReplyDelete
  32. ok theory is something that has never been proven wrong but in some cases never proven correct believe what you want to dont call other people stupid
    you have made mistakes before both sides should cool it b/c its a couple of cg pics of earth not something worth arguing for
    people can think for them selfs and be Christians u can grow up w/o a god in your life and turn to Christian ways

    ReplyDelete
  33. alrighty....if all of you who sit there and argue all the time just realize that yuou dont know what you're saying i think everyone might be happier. all of you religious freaks out there downing creation you're downing your god durr. and everyone else just shut up you all sound absolutely retarded. please dont argue with me i dont care if i am right or wrong just shut up already its the earth at night just look and know

    ReplyDelete
  34. evolution is a theory, creationism is a theory. leave each other alone. do you guys really think you're going to convince each other?

    each argument looks completely ridiculous to someone who believes the other.

    honestly you guys don't know how you all look...

    "christians are all closed minded and ignorant"

    "no, everyone else is closed minded and ignorant"

    you wanna know why you think that? because only the most closed minded and ignorant people would actually think it logical to call every constituent of a belief system "closed minded" while sitting on their computers and actually think that they're making a difference by talking shit on other people's blogs. yes i realize the irony in that statement please dont call me out on it

    btw it's already been pointed out that these pictures have nothing to do with creationism vs evolution

    ReplyDelete
  35. erico your "if there was no god there would be no christians" comment didnt make any sense. you're an atheist, you don't believe in god, yet there are christians. that wasn't actually even a valid comeback to what he was saying. i'd consider myself atheist so nobody go all "shut up jesus freak" on me, im just saying that's not actually an argument.

    and to all the atheists or christians saying that everyone's pushing their beliefs on you as you just go about your life, take a closer look. i've never had a religious person (christian or otherwise) try to push his or her beliefs on me. why do you think that is? because i dont go around offending people by calling their whole religion annoying

  36. This is from the "retard that questioned the transitional fossil record" it's talk origins.org you fecal brain. If you can swallow some of the crap on that site, have a nice cup of Kool-aid while you're at it.
    The fossil record can be considered now complete with the overwhelming number of fossils uncovered. There have STILL been no transitional fossils found to support eveolution. None, zip, nada. If you know of one, please let me and the rest of the world know where. And as far as the eye, explain that one as well, if you can.

  37. let's put aside the ceation and evolution theories for one minute and talk about a more important matter........... how awesome is it that the patriots are going to kill the giants?!

  38. "Who is anonymous?"

    You are.

  39. Evolution? Creation?

    Who cares, it's all photoshopped anyway... Where are the clouds?

    ReplyDelete
  40. For "evolution is fro idiots" (wow...more irony.)

    If you went to the website I provided, you would have found hundreds of examples of transitional species. If you'd like an example of a humanoid transitional species, take a look at homo erectus and homo heidelbergensis...just two of SEVERAL.

    As far as the eye is concerned, here's a URL:

    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/library/01/1/l_011_01.html

    and another:

  42. i think the fact that evolution is being taught in public schools while religion is not should be proof enough.

  44. Sometimes all someone has is faith. Why would you want to take that away from them? To feel superior? Let those who believe; believe. No matter how we came about there is no argument that we are here. We have life so we can live life. It's up to you to decide how too.

    ReplyDelete
  45. by the way for those of you who dont know, evolution vs creationism isn't strictly an atheist vs religious argument. even religious (yes including christian) scientists think creationism is nuts

    ReplyDelete
  46. Anyone who thinks things "happen poof" in evolution, doesn't know WTF evolution is.
    Evolution is an irrefutable fact - the only "theory" is how it works.

    Creationism is bullshit from A to Z.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Hey guys. God is real, evolution is fact. Your lacking a supreme inherent wisdom if you don't see that. God can't be proved through science (yet). He especially can't be proved through primitive religous beliefs. Only through philosophy can he be proven irrefutible. Evolution is fact so either shut up or I'll wait 25 years when religous ignorence is almost extinct. Later.

    ReplyDelete
  48. The reason there are still apes is because there would have been a barrier between a species and one of the two groups would have evolved to adapt to their surroundings duh obviously someone didn't think their comment through

    ReplyDelete
  49. haha, people get pretty wound up in here.

    anyway, i just agree with the kid that mentioned zeitgeist. you should watch the movie. who knows whats true, but its always good to question the world

    ReplyDelete
  50. in order for something to be a scientific fact it has to an objective and verifiable observation. evolution can't be re-created in a controlled setting, so scientifically speaking, it is still a theory. now, the theory of evolution is only irrefutable because can't yet go back to see who or what started this mess. the theory of evolution has become a "fact" because those that are in support of it have found a way to shout louder or more effectively in favor of it than all those "closed minded creationists" trying to bring it down. you dunces are so open minded that all your brains got out, go ahead and evolve another one. quit arguing about stupid shit on the internet with people you cant see. oh, look, more irony, now you can get off on that too. i'm going outside to play in creation, i mean, evolution.

  51. evolution for your mom
    yea
    lets see evolution go and ice that burn

    ReplyDelete
  52. Evolution is not just one theory it is several, all conflicting - failure to believe in this cognitive dissonance doesn't make one automatically a supporter of god or religion either. Would be like saying you are automatically a Yankees fan if you don't like the Mets!!

    ReplyDelete
  53. oh man, Cyn, look what you started :)

    btw to the RETARD who said "evolution can't be re-created in a controlled setting, so scientifically speaking, it is still a theory" -

    ITS STILL HAPPENING, YOU DUMB F**K!

    Its not some process that happened and is now over, and this is how its going to be for ever and ever. Its CONSTANTLY occurring, every moment a cell divides is part of the process.

    Also, to the OTHER RETARD who said that said "There have STILL been no transitional fossils found to support eveolution" - wow you really have read NOTHING outside of Sunday Church Reading Lists, have you?

    The evidence is all around you, its happening RIGHT NOW, and if you read scientific journals and USED YOUR BRAIN you would begin to udnerstand.

    But im not holding my breath on that...

    Finally- people eithe BELIEVE in Creationism (ie on Faith) OR actually UNDERSTAND Evolution.

    Thats the crucial difference.

    Faith does NOT equal reason. TO claim you believe something on faith is to display a basic lack of the ability to think for yourself.

    Yes, i have been touched by the FSM, and i am eternally Greatfull to hiss appendage. :D:D

  54. The funniest thing is that no matter what topic on the Internet is talked about, ALL of the comment boards become a place for people to fight over politics and religion.
