Evolution is a scientific theory.
Prove me wrong.
Nothing wrong with that, fellow atheist.
>>768859309
Well... it is....
>>768859309
Agreed. Good thread.
>>768859309
Yeah, pretty much. And love the had. Fapping is good. Believing in less government doesn't mean that you aren't an Atheist or go to church. Personally, I hate the moralistic SJW shit, and don't go in for the moralistic Religious bullshit. Welcome to the club :D. Fap your brains out to whatever you want, with no guilt.
Yep, gravity too. Excuse while I fly away.
>>768859309
No, it's a scientific fact.
Prove me wrong.
We should all fap
>>768859907
Facts have to be proven right. That's the definition of a fact.
It is a theory. Theories are disproven constantly.
>>768859795
Porn has been scientifically proven to fuck with your brain and fapping makes you tired. But I agree with you on the moralist stuff, the left has become like the religious right from a couple decades ago with their stupid moralist bs.
>>768859907
It's not a fact, it's a theory, and a solid theory. You sound like someone who doesn't have a stem background.
>>768860191#
I agree with what you say
>>768860134
'Scientifically proven'. That term means very little anymore. You would have to source it, and it's most likely bullshit. I enjoy fapping. It's great. Endorphins don't really effect me in a way that causes drowsiness. Still, if it does - for you - it's a great thing to do before sleeping. Personally? I fap about 3 or 4 times a day. Great pick me up.
>>768859309
Creationism is scientific theory.
Prove me wrong.
>>768860399
It is a scientific theory. It has very little going for it, but it is a scientific theory.
>>768859309
You're right- it IS a theory. There's no way to go back and conclusively prove that evolution occurred, and science as we know hasn't been around long enough to observe it happening
HOWEVER, it's the accepted theory because there's mountains of evidence from observation, whereas there's 0 creditable evidence for god creating the world.
If you want to argue that god is a better argument than evolution, then go right ahead. It's not going to go well when you have no leg to stand on.
Science is about hypothesizing about why things are the way they are. Are you going to say that gravity doesn't exist? Gravity is also a scientific theory. We don't conclusively know why gravity exists.
>>768860492
>We don't conclusively know why gravity exists
no u
>>768860399
you should probably look up the definition of 'scientific'
>>768860492
Well, you would have to agree on a definition of god before you could even set about trying to prove god created anything. For example: if two people were to agree that god was 'gravity', or 'the universe', then they could find ways to substantiate god creating the Earth. Personally? I haven't seen or heard of anything I would assign the title of 'god' to.
>>768859309
Theory is the highest order of scientific knowledge.
Right after theory comes Law.
I know it sound stupid, but that's the way it goes.
>>768860492
Gravity is the definition of the force holding us down to the Earth. This phenomena was given a word to define it. The theories behind how gravity behaves and what it may be, these are theories. Just like we have wolves and dogs and cats and zebras. These are words defining creatures that everyone has agreed on. The process which caused them to come into existence is a theory. Trying to compare a word with an accepted definition to a theory is a pretty big fallacy.
>>768860661
The burden of proof falls on the person disproving the theory or suggesting a theory. They define god as part of their hypothesis. Agreeing isn't needed
>>768860941
That makes no sense. You can't simply define a word by using that word. The definition must be stated and agreed upon for the word to have any meaning at all.
>>768860903
You are correct, yes. Gravity is the observation, but why gravity works is only suggested by theories. In the same way, we can all observe that humans exist, but there are only theories about how we got here
>>768860941
You have to prove that something exists at all before you can theorize about it, otherwise your theory is merely an opinion.
>>768860492
>If you want to argue that god is a better argument than evolution
"God" invented evolution.
>>768860399
Kinda true. It's been posited as a scientif theory, but the point of scientific theories is that they're examined, pulled apart, put back together again, with findings checked and verified or debunked ad nauseum.
Unfortinately, in the case of Creationism, the theory was ripped to shreds on day one. But 10/10 for effort
>>768860492
>there's mountains of evidence from observation

No but there's a lot of irrelevant shit I can't show you. What I can show you are examples of extinct species that are exhibiting both reptilian and mammalian traits. Illustrating that the development of mammalian traits was a long process that reptilian species underwent that eventually led to the first mammals.
>>768861263
This is the core issue- You can't prove that god doesn't exist, which invalidates using him as a scientific argument. One of the cornerstones of science is that a SCIENTIFIC theory must be testable and falsifiable. Evolution can be tested, and disproved, It hasn't been. It's easy to say that god created the universe because there's no way to test or disprove that.
>>768861364
It's impossible to disprove, which is why it's invalid
>>768861634

yeah of course I'm not saying anything. I'm typing.
You are a weirdo: Instead of typing on a keyboard like a normal person you use dictation on your computer. Who the fuck talks to his computer?
>>768861740
Why haven't we ever observed a dog deciding to be a horse?
>>768861552
That's a gross misunderstanding of evolution. If you want to disprove evolution, you have to counter the actual argument, not the strawman
>>768861173
if you take all the matter in the known universe, and put it into one singularity, imagine it blowing up and all of it expands at the speed of light. This amount of matter, ALL of the matter, HAS to create at least a few planets that are suitable for life as we know it. On, at the very least, one of these planets has to make at least one very simple form of life. over millions of years, this simple life form duplicates, and refines itself through natural selection. billions of years later, we have complex beings and conscious animals.

>>768862134
Yeah which verse is that?
>>768859309
Evolution has been demonstrably proven to be fact. Fact; a lambo is superior to a Ford model-T in every conceivable way. Double-face the X-Box One X is a faster path to homosexuality than the Texas Instruments TI-84.

>>768861396
i definitely dont live in the universe as you see it, given you think that there is some magic force that can make anything it wants happen, and chooses to make everything it does absolutely betray it, and show the opposite of its existence. why would a god who gets off on being acknowledged deliberately try to mislead humanity with the evidence of evolution?
>>768862161
Yeah, but you gotta understand the reasoning about why we think that happened. It wasn't pulled from thin air
>>768862208
>Evolution has been demonstrably proven to be fact.
You're the type of person who would've believed the earth is flat centuries ago and not questioned it and vilified anyone who claimed otherwise. You are a sheep. There are no real facts in science.

>>768863944
Yeah but you should know what biblical verse you're quoting right?
We can't. It is indeed a Scientific Theory, and will be until we document enough changes in animals/plants for it to be defined as a new species. That will be a long, long time from now.
>>768863997
why?
>>768859309
Do you not know how words work?
Look up the word "theory"
Gravity is a theory still you fucking halfwit
>>768864157
because you're quoting it. If I quoted a source for material you'd expect me to properly reference it wouldn't you?
>>768861813
Underage b&, no Fucking question.
>>768860399
No, it relies on belief, making it theistic.
>>768859309
Shitty bait
Why do so few people apparently know what "theory" means in a scientific context? Pointing out that something is a "theory" isn't at all the gotcha! Evangelicals seem to think it is.
>>768864239
>If I quoted a source for material you'd expect me to properly reference it wouldn't you?
no, because you're retarded
Theory of evolution is a crock of shit. The main premise is things evolve over time so that they have the capability to survive. If that was the case, everything would be immortal by now. Also, before anyone says you can't create immortality, you can. There is a jellyfish that can't ever "die".
>>768864504
So only retarded people don't properly reference their source material?
>>768863736
>I care about you
That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me, you made my week <3
>>768864185
Not really. Gravity is a law (As we can directly observe it happening). How it works is all theory. Pretty much all of Science uses theory to give exclamations to laws, and there can be many of them.
Evolution can't be law yet because we haven't seen one species split into an entirely new one, and won't for a long time. And even when we do, only the process of evolution is law, everything else revolving around how it happens remains theory.
>>768864738
*thats
*weak
haha guess I really am retarded eh?
>>768861851
Where did that matter come from? tee hee
>>768864685
But still its an unreasonable expectation for a retarded man to properly source his material, that's what you're telling me right?
>>768864856
depends on how retarded

Its hard to pin down from your posts, but somewhere in between perhaps
>>768859309
>>768864776
Not to try to start some kind of argument because its a trivial thing to argue over, but I personally think the theory of evolution should just be called the theory of adaptation. It would be an easier term for everyone to understand and agree with. We can all agree that species adapt to their environment. We've observed ourselves doing it. The word evolution seems to imply in some people's minds that organisms gain special powers or turn into some completely different species. Since we can't really provide evidence of a certain species changing in such a drastic way, it would be more agreeable to just say we all have the ability to adapt as our environment dictates. That would be the key to any species surviving
>>768865130
I have a tested IQ of 144, but I am on the spectrum
>>768861396
Everyone's reality is inside their own mind.
Everthing you know and think depends
on your senses you can't prove reality without using your own personal sensei and way of interpreting the universe.
So, no, we're not in the same universe.
>>768864539
Everything would be immortal by now if they didn't depend on limited resources without which they would DIE. But then again, if resources and competition weren't a factor, we'd be immortal right off the bat. no need for evolution even to explain immortality. You're just REALLY good at looking at everything the wrong way aren't you
>>768865788
No, there is a physical universe that we live in, it is objective. You are incorrect. Yes, everyone experiences it differently, but we all exist in the same physical plane. Better luck next time, dumdum.
>>768865973
But what is physical?
>>768866221

>>768864853
that's what we don't know, a theory is that the universe expands and then contracts into a singularity and then blows up again, quite impossible to know. because as far as we know there was nothing and nothing into something is pretty unbelievable
>>768860399
>scientific
>>768866653
Yes. The colour green corresponds to a frequency of energy released when higher-energy orbital electrons are excited by light and fall down to the lower energy orbitals.
>>768866322
Something from nothing, yes anon, I think that's what Evolutionists believe.
Maybe you're not smart enough to grasp the full complexities of your idols position.
>>768867481
Yeah, the expected answer, now try to teach a blind-since-birth person to recognice green from red and tell me how colors are an objetive truth and not just a way YOUR brain reacts to a light wavelenght
The 30 trillion or so cells that make up our bodies have made a 3.8 billion year journey to be us, and what do we do read and post on /b
Live is good!
>>768868432
So god can appear from nothingness bit matter can't?
Yeah, your Idol makes more sense.
It would be as easy as creating a device that responded to "green" and to "red" with unique tones. Recognition.
>>768869036
God always was.
Your view has nothing at the beginning, but still turned into something
>>768869191
I like they way this conversation is going.
That would help the blind to recognize a sound, but that sound isn't the same green that you have in your mind.
You see green, he hears beep, so you're both in diferente realities.
>>768869036
I believe that matter always existed, I don't like Quantum's theory of spontaneous generation of matter.
Evolution doesn't says that everything appears from nothing, it just says that life changes and adapts to their environment from generation to generation.

Hey guys let me hit you with this one. It doesn't matter, if we came from monkey's or not doesn't effect your life in the slightest. Nihilism is a fine way to think

where's the difference though?
>>768860121
Get a load of this guy.
>>768870486
Nihilism doesn't mean that we're not allowed to discuss existence and it's properties, it means that objective importance or natural value and quality don't exist and that we made good/bad up. It means that there's no point in doing anything because the thought that it would improve our life in even the slightest is purely of subjective nature and there's no objective or total increase in quality, with any action, as quality is a delusion.
>>768870907
And since it's an illusion we can improve it however we want! :D
>>768860386
>>768871121
We can't improve anything, improving is made up, we can only change the situation, not make it better.
Better and worse are invented, they don't naturally exist. We only perceive them because they're part of cognitive fitness criteria we attained trough evolution. We prefer having the things we define as good because evolution tells us they help with survival and procreation.
>>768860121
and it hasn't? like in hundreds and thousands of ways?
>>768871908
Because you can't actually prove anything.
Proof is just whatever the fuck the general public considers convincing enough to witchhunt and call people stupid over when they don't agree with it. In other words, facts are just the most believed opinions on this planet.
