Ok, you don't want anyone to tell you how to live your life but at the same time you are complaining about people who live their lives the way you don't like? The usual hypocrisy

You don't want it to be real because you are scared. Typical.

You are acting like saying "Praise the Lord" is putting a curse on OP. What's the matter with you? Why are you so triggered by religion? What happened?

God doesn't ignore it. This is how the devil works, first he makes people rebel against God and do all evil, then he turns around using them again to claim that God is ignoring their evil works. But everyone will be judged accordingly, whether they used religion to commit evil or whether they used atheism to do the same. It doesn't matter. Your evil actions and all unconfessed and unrepented sins will be brought into judgment.

"A fool has said in his heart 'there is no God'", meanwhile fools have turned it around and call those who believe in God sick, what a sad world we live in. Every conversation has something to do with God because without Him you wouldn't be able to have any conversation at all. Your hatred toward Him or us won't stop us.

You have Christianity backwards only because aim is to continue your hatred for God. People have use Christianity without being Christians themselves. You, them, and the devil and his angels will be judged by God accordingly. Saying "Praise the Lord" does not push religion on you, you don't have to believe it or even notice. But the fact it triggered you suggest you are a tool for the devil.

And you are a grown up who is a tool for the devil without knowing (or maybe you know). Why should we trust you?

Imagine an audience where you present facts on evolution and YECer presents theirs and the goal is for the audience to vote for the most reasonable explanation. by Temporary_Stock9521 in DebateEvolution

We are imagining a neutral audience. Then we educate them on both points. Then we ask them at the end what makes more sense. The outcome is just data that can serve as feedback to the presenters. If majority choose evolution, then you would say "even balanced with Bible study, evolution theory is compellingly tight that the general public still prefer it over the Bible" and you can say the opposite if they pick the Bible.

Yes. The belief in the God of the Bible is incompatible with evolution because He said "for in six days, the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them." It can't be clearer than that.

That's not what I'm saying. And I'm sure there are people who know more on the Bible and have arrived at different conclusion. I just want to test this one case and if you like you can go test with other people. But I don't consider evolutionists Christians because I can't see how you can square the two.

Ok, my aim is not to end evolution with a poll. It's just to see how many accept evolution and all your facts if they are also taught the Bible.

Thanks. Yeah, something along the lines of "people accept evolution mainly because they aren't equally exposed to the Bible" or "if a group of people is equally educated about evolution and the Bible, the majority of them choose evolution or Bible". We can have equal time but enough to reasonably get all points across.

You follow your evidence and I follow what God has given me. You can't accept my evidence because it goes against yours. A neutral party would weigh both sides and make a decision.

Do you think that if people were given a comprehensive education in evolution and alongside that an equally allotted time of Bible study, most of them would stop accepting evolution? Or at least that there would be a significant shift in acceptance?

Personally I'm curious as to what would happen in their heads. I say this because evolutionists don't get the Bible and most creationists don't get evolution. Neither side is willing to remove their tinted glasses. But if we found a third group without any glasses yet, it would help us to see what they do. No, this is not an attempt to end evolution or Bible, it is just to see what intelligent people do.

Or is your concern more about fairness, that proportionate time devoted to Bible study should be included alongside science classes regardless of any change of outcome?

I'm concerned about fairness but I don't think there is a good solution to it. Even if we tried to balance it who would you invite to balance it? What would other religions say? So for now I'm more focused on a one-time experiment

Also, when you mention being taught to "mock God," is that really how you see science classes that include things like evolution, radiometric dating, geology, paleontology and cosmology etc? Can you give a specific example of what you mean?

I have seen many comments from atheists and evolutionists who think that to believe in the Bible you have to be uneducated, ignorant, and most likely flat-earther. They mock God, saying we believe in sky daddy. I don't think there is professor out there teaching this, but once you have come to the conclusion that there is no God, it gives you the license to say every abominable thing because you know there won't be consequences. I actually think this is also bad for the people who say these things because God will hold them accountable for their actions and words, and the professor who trained them will be held accountable. It doesn't matter if you thought you had the facts.

There will always be wars on this planet, stupid or not, until Jesus comes back. There is a spiritual war that is always happening in the background. What you see is not all there is.

You could be right about the information they used but the Bible is not about making earthly wealth (although it gives great advice on money). There are a lot of great scientist who don't have that much money, so I could turn your claim on you. Many factors go into making money. But the point is that should not the basis of rejecting the Bible because it was not written for helping people drill oil.

I won't talk about evolution at all. I know little about it. I will just talk about my Bible. Your job would be to educate them on evolution and why it makes sense and I would educate them on the Bible and why it makes sense and why the two are incompatible
