Just a note on the Darwin debate before the new series

God has made it plain to everyone by the wondrous and amazing complexity and beauty of His material world in which we live that there is a Creator God and that belief has caused men all over the planet to seek truth and seek to find this Creator God and know Him.   This is one reason I dialogue with Darwinists, because although I know their scientific arguments are about 99 per cent talk and one per cent substance there is hope that one or two of them will keep studying and in the process of trying to destroy my assertions will find themselves confronted with Truth.   The primary reason is to help uncertain Christians find their way to information that agrees with their faith.   Yes, the evidence for creation by God is more and more obvious to those who view that evidence without presuppositions in my opinion.

Despite much sound and fury signifying nothing from the other side, I believe that I have presented compelling evidence to any normal intelligent person's satisfaction that living organisms have been designed and intricately so at that.   Our studies of genetics and reproduction and animal behavior indicate that not only does reproduction prove design but so does behavior.   Living beings are a combination of hardware and software, and not just operating systems but also applications.   Computer technology is man making an attempt to produce a version of something God has done far more elegantly and spectacularly billions upon trillions of times over again.   Many commenters make accusations but they just use jargon and boilerplate answers while dodging the actual issues.   There is NO explanation for information in organisms and there have not been any transitional forms found and there is no recorded incident of observed macroevolution.  Virtually every Darwinist assumption about how DNA works has been blown to bits by recent findings.

I promise you all that fifty years from now Darwinism will seem as silly as an investment in buggy whips would be today.   Science will be unable to help itself, the evidence is shouting at the top of its lungs that life is designed and no matter the worldview Darwinists will have to find another -ist or simply give up and admit to themselves that all things are designed and therefore there is a Designer.   They will probably spend another fifty years trying to find a substitute Designer and move the Anything But God mindset into the castle position with all their attack pieces having been taken from them.  That is, unless you think hopeful monsters and punctuated equilibrium and backs of crystals and...well...hmmm, Lamarck is out the door already, right?  And Weasel was exposed for being formal and therefore not applicable.  Darwinists keep trying to write programs that will evolve and can't even get that to happen, as if that would actually be applicable to the material world anyway. 

A fine DVD called "Is Christianity Good For The World" is a documentary of sorts of a tour of debates between noted Atheist Christopher Hitchens and Pastor Douglas Wilson.  The movie doesn't focus simply on the debates but also the interaction between the two men and others around them during the debate tour.   Oddly enough, at the end, although Hitchens has often declared he would like to wipe Christianity from the face of the Earth, he repents just a bit when considering a world in which Christianity has been eliminated and decides he would like to conserve at least one.   Perhaps in his heart he could not stand the idea of Wilson and his family being wiped off the planet or perhaps he thought of Christians as a rare animal that might be caged and kept to view and inspect?

I have no such compunctions.  I do not wish to kill any Atheists but if we could eliminate Atheisim then we would also put an end to Darwinism and Socialism and all sorts of assorted societal ills.  Racism would no longer have any so-called rational basis (not that I consider it rational) but Atheisim brought us Communism and Socialism and Darwinism and Eugenics and Racism as a logical conclusion if Darwinism is believed.  Eugenics is Darwinism applied (hey Hitler, how is that worldview working out for you so far?) and it is Atheism that brought us Abortion on demand and Euthanasia by government fiat is on the way.  It will start with health care rationing after socialized medicine is begun, but hey, you will not need me to tell you that because in a few years it may be your life that is determined to be not worth saving, cost-effective wise.

Atheism doesn't work because it is, like Gertrude Stein said about her childhood home in Oakland, there is no there there.   Atheism has no absolutes.   There is no moral authority.  There is nothing that an Atheist can point to and say, "Here is the foundation for truth and morality."   There is no Atheist Ten Commandments equivalent because anything an Atheist points to as their creed is something that they thought up themselves or someone else thought up for them.  No matter how smart the Atheist, he is still a fallible man.

The Bible comes from God and God claims to be the author of the words via men who were "inspired by the Holy Spirit."  66 books written over thousands of years by several different authors and yet all cohesively one unit.  God has a good case for existence, as He has written a Bible that continues to be the most influential tome ever written and upon which Western Civilization was founded.  Because I believe God created and gave man the ability to reason and to choose, I know the things I do have repercussions.  I understand that all people have intrinsic value because God made them so. 

Suppose that there is no God and that all things did happen by chance.  Gee, what great news.  No purpose to life and no certainty that you even make decisions.  What if you are evolved into what you are?   What if you have no more choice over what you say or do than salmon do when they are compelled to find the same little stream from whence they were spawned?  How is this possibly good news?  In fact, how can you trust your own intellect?

Darwinists try to point to transitional forms that are not and to use short-term observations of processes to proclaim long ages but do you notice how they run away from genetics?  Yep.
