"Well, the basic tenets of the Christian Faith, as I see them, are ultimately tenable, and the only thing that really makes sense of this world, but that discussion would perhaps best occupy its own thread. So long as the discussion is civil, I have…"

Prometheus Wins replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"The basic tenets of the christian faith, as far as I understand them, do not need evolution to be untenable. They manage that pretty much on their own steam. I am not interested in bashing someone's faith, though, so I would rather stick to the…"
Brian Guiley replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"This quote sets up a false premise if ever I saw it. Religion does not seek certainty without proof. There are some things that a religion gives grounding to, such as value of life, morality, hope for the future, but these are just as sought by…"
Richard A. Meiss replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Hi, Brian -
Well, we are getting closer, but I have to take issue with the notion that "science is very limited in the definitive statements it can make, especially about unobserved phenomena." On the contrary, science is the most…"
Brian Guiley replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Paul:
First off, the bolded statement, which is also indicated as part of the Wikipedia entry (which was on humanism only by the way) specifically identified "Secular Humanism" as dealing with the last entry. Thus, when I stated…"

Prometheus Wins replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Brian, just a quick note regarding this paragraph. Your reasoning in the last sentence is actually ass backwards. Biologists do not use the presence of natural selection to affirm evolution. 1) Evolution (descent with modification from common…"
Brian Guiley replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"According to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanism
Humanism is an approach in study, philosophy, or practice that focuses on human values and concerns. The term can mean several things, for example:
A historical movement associated…"
Richard A. Meiss replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Hi, Brian -
You have identified one of the reasons that scientists and creationists talk past each other in venues such as this. Let me give an example - I can give a good account of how to drive a car without having to go into detail about how to…"
Brian Guiley replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Paul,
The secular humanist worldview (which encompasses far more than evolutionary theory) is a system that precludes a divine. This worldview gives rise to evolution, big bang, etc. Evolution as a term is often used to describe things outside of…"
Richard A. Meiss replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Dear Victoria –
Thank you for your reply – I am assuming that it is a reply to my letter regarding the synthesis of organic compounds in general. Your letter essentially demanded that I explain the abiotic synthesis of DNA, and then you…"
Lance Ponder replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"You're obviously getting a LOT of good advice here. There are many great experts out there. I've been studying this subject for a few years now and I'm putting together a collection of evidences from a spectrum. I post a weekly blog…"
Victoria Mabry replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Richard,
I was just reviewing some old conversations and realized that I had not replied to you on this string. Forgive me. Here's what I see: You are basically saying you have no clue how DNA could have formed in an abiotic environment.…"
George Garcia replied to Bryanne McDonough's discussion 'High School Biology'"Bryanne I know you may not get this but others may like to know as well. I have recently taught on the subject of information. It is very interesting you can learn more about this subject by watching this video from…"
