Likewise, the virgin birth of Jesus is based on faith, we don't really have much more to go on. However, I would suggest that a virgin birth can be understood through science, unlike abiogenesis.

Abiogenesis happened, we are here, so that prove it. But that goes against your theory that says, if we can't measure it in a lab it probably didn't happen. The Big Bang is an unsatisfactory and incomplete explanation for the creation of the universe. What happened before that, ad infinitum...

The creation of the universe has not been seen in a lab, so what does that mean? The first life from no life has not been seen in a lab, so what does that mean? The evolution from no eye to an eye, has that been measured?

Hmm...The thread title is the virgin birth of Jesus, so religion might be in there somewhere!!!

I can go along with that, but without intelligent direction, the peak of evolution might just be random shaped glass blobs. I would not dispute that glass forms naturally, and a few random shape glass objects have little meaning. But you would not expect to find a finely sculptured glass...

You say that evolution has been used to design all kinds of software, that's fine, I have no problems with this. But why use this example to explain the ToE. You and I both know there are no invisible sky daddies banging away on keyboards, we have overwhelming proof that visible intelligent...

You have given the perfect example to show that evolution cannot happen without an intelligent designer. You have used evolution and design in the same sentence. Rephrase your comment by saying, 'Man has used their intelligence, to programme computers, to help them design software' Remove man...

An intelligent input was needed to make these evolutionary designs. The evolved antenna comes to mind. First of all there is a goal to monitor radio waves, there are no end goals with the ToE. You then have to intelligently design a programme, on an intelligently designed computer to help your...

So all you need to do is take the same tweezers and put all the molecules back together, when you have done that, you might understand how complex these configurations of chemicals are. You have to make the car in the first place, and cars are low tech, we have been making them for decades...

So we both don't have that answer, then just for the sake of argument, we skip this, and face another question. Even if you could write an explanation that said, hydrogen, helium, and small amounts of lithium always existed. And all of the matter in the universe, and all of the matter that will...

You need to be more convincing, you could do with changing your user name from malintent for a start. But just to show good will, if you tell me your bank details and pass codes, I might transfer the money.

In the absence of any real facts for the origin of space-time and matter, I shall depend on my faith in God. Do you know the real facts, as to how the universe came to be? Agreed, so how do you explain the origin of space-time and matter, without God?

We have faith that the virgin birth of Jesus happened, because we have faith that God created the universe and life in the beginning. All the miracles of Jesus, are very small in comparison to the creation of the universe and life.

Of course Scotland had a beginning, but Scotland is not God. God the creator of the universe, either exists fully and totally, or there is no God. There is no final proof, but we have faith that God exists, and he created the universe. If God can create life from no life, then it should be...

Are you saying that because you cannot define a true Scotsman, that Scotland does not exist? Christians, Muslims, Hindus follow God in many different ways, so are you saying this means there is no God, in the same way as there is no Scotland?
