jackp Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Pretty sure there's not a lot of empirical evidence where dinosaurs are concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camtang Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 I didn't do too well in sunday school school on a sunday is just daft, but I got removed from bible studys at primary school after around 2 weeks :thup: Adam and Eve were not vegetarian. They lived on apples and dinasaurs. A good thing the boat was big enough. But didnt "Adam and Eve" come along after "god" 6000 years ago? If so that must mean that dinos would of lived amoung us, and not died ot over 65million years ago. hmmm me thinks if they did live with us 6000 years ago humans would not exist as we would of made a tasty treat for baby t-rex. kinda like brine shrimp for fry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Some of their myths and legends make a lot of sense. The tanawha in the swamp would stop a lot of kids from drowning and the tribes that came here riding on a whale probably followed the same route as the migrating whales. I would think the whales would have figured out the easiest route to head back down south via NZ---they would have made the trip a few times. It is claimed Waitaha first landed at Tahunanui which is in line with the whales route back south and through Cook Straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 If you want an example of evolution all you have to do is look at how bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics, that is evolution in action.evolution , yes, Darwinism not so much...

aotealotl Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 after reading most of the posts in this thread and still not knowing what is sarcasm and what's not I have to ask this, is there anyone on this forum who actually believes that we were created and not evolved out of evolution ?

alanmin4304 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Who created the creator's creator's creator? There is something like 250 functions that the simplest cell requires to survive. If you work out statistically what the chances are of that popping out of a pea soup you might be surprised. Some people like to believe in intelligent design rather than god the creator.

SamH Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 I like to believe in good luck. There's an infinite number of planets, stars, galaxies, solar systems in the universe, our rock just happened to be the right size and the right distance away from our star to spawn life.

Each to their own. Much like there is who knows how many diffrent versions of who created what in a god sense, which has formed a ridiculus amount of diffrent religions. some have just become stronger then others an have wiped some out and become stronger. which sounds similar to evolution to me. Much like some people belive in some kinda of beyond intervention that is yet to be proen others choose to belive a series of process's that have scientifical proof beyond doubt if you belive in science that is, which most people should because our world has been made up of science. but yeh each to their own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
