No. That's what I said. It's not a question of logic. It violates no logical proofs to make that assertion.
got in your little video chickens out.
Once upon a time there were no living beasts or fowl on the earth, the only living things lived in the sea. Then one day a male and a female thingy crawled out of the abyss, (yep a male and female on the same beach at the same time). As time went by, these little thingys became ants and dogs and cats and elephants and cows and monkies and....humans.
Oh yes now theres some believable .
you join robdiaz in the "i dont know how evolution works" club
Trust me little man, I'm just as tight on that topic as I am sprinters/blues cats. Sure I was poking fun at it. Ya see it's called...The THEORY of evolution ...for a reason, a ton of holes in it, a TON!!!!!!!!!!!!
When totally different species of things can all be traced back to having the same origins we have a problem.
No, actually we don't, in science.
It has a mul ude of explanations, that make sense, to people who understand evolution.
There are still discussions of the particulars, but I doubt you know them.
If you equate your statement above to your proficiency in track, then you don't know squat about track.
Please list your holes also. Educate the board since you might have decided to dive into the deep end lacking the ability to dog paddle.
Gotta go outta town will be back tonite most likely, look forward hopefully to a good list. If you know your stuff, it has the possibility of being very meaningful.

I've never understood why people pretend to be re ed on a messageboard.
Is it really that fun for you to get randomguy to post 20 youtubes and a 10 page response?
To each his own I guess.
would you agree that believing in the tooth fairy is illogical?
So that I don't forget my question, I'm going to assume you do.
my watch maker question is this:
IYO, At what point did the watch maker let the universe run on it's own? At the very beginning?
Orcas are ing underated tbh
They ing hunt white sharks
and dip sea world trainers
and dip sea world trainers
a shame dat sea worlds entertaining people with Orcas... that's their reward to be highly intelligent animals... that's an interesting paradox btw, you don't show off white sharks because they are pure instinct but you use Orca, a beast that should stay in the wild
Lol
and dip sea world trainers
Incredible
Dude we all get, it you hate religion you despise the Bible.
Now get back to trying to prove your here because two apes ed.
Pretty much the ultimate knowledge of "god" right there -
all of this and we are all still as blind to "god" as we have ever been and will ever be.
It is called "the unknown"
you're claiming unknowable knowledge yet implying that a God exists all in the same post.
It's either unknowable or it's knowable. Pick a lane.
No. Believing in the tooth-fairy is not a question of logic. Beliefs don't come from logic. They come from empiricism. Do I think that believing in the tooth fairy is supportable or a legitimate explanation for phenomena? Nope. But that's not the same thing as thinking something is illogical. Believing that a bachelor is married is illogical, because it violates self-evident truth. Believing in something without sufficient evidence violates not such truths.
To your question, yeah. That's what I think is most likely to have occurred.
I don't care if your beliefs come from empiricism or from mom and dad.
Why you started believing what you do is rather irrelevant in considering whether or not it's logical to continue believing that way.
That said, you have no more empirical reason to believe in a watch maker than you do the tooth fairy.
If you have to make up a story about the origin of the universe, it's just not logical to believe in it.
As far as the question: so if the watch maker started the universe and let it go, the logical conclusion there is that earth and it's inhabitants are just happy coincidences that just happened to spring into existence based on the rules of this universe. Agree or disagree?
You can care or not care. It won't help your understanding of logic. Belief does not come from logic. Truth does. That's a distinction you don't seem to get. A belief in evolution is not logical. A belief that you have hands isn't logical. That's a completely different thing altogether.
Probably. Depends on the knowledge level of the maker. If he is omniscient, then we and everything else were known about and intended. But if he isn't, then we may well be coincidental.
You were a C- public school student weren't you.
