      The first big step in cultivation was farming. When people started to grow their own vegetables and breed their own animals, they had less reasons for having to move around all the time so they started to convert large pieces of forests into farming land, using the wood for building houses and for heating and cooking. They started to live in villages instead of tents and with that, the battles came; communities expanding their territory and taking the communities around them. I don't think this contributed to the destruction of the planet much as much as machines, trains and cars but cutting all the forests was a start of course. Europe once was one huge forest, now most forests are gone and we expect south-American and Asian countries to stop with the de-foresting.

          1 Day to God is 24 normal hours like the rest of us.

          Christian crazies believe the Earth was created in 7 literal days...about 6000 years ago.

          Christians are like the kids in 5th grade who have been told for years that Santa doesn't exist, but refuse believe they have been duped.

              forget about what christians believe

              How is a "God's day" 24 hours when, according to the story, there was light *before* God creates the sun and the moon.

              1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
              ...
              1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years

              The "lights" are created on day 3, yet there's light that shows up on day 1?

              Also, the 24hr cycle only applies to earth relative to the sun.

                  Science vs. Religion is yet another false dichotomy...humans were created by aliens
                  This is undeniable if only in the fact that all matter on our planet traveled great distance from all directions to arrive here. Plus we are constantly traveling and spinning ourselves, who knows what where why who or how though.

                    or secrets hidden out in the open. who knows

                    The Aztecs, Egyptians, the Hopi Indians all had obsessions with Orion. And talked about stars that we wouldn't "discover" for centuries after them. Then there is the Mahabharata talking about wars in the sky and what not.

                          The scientist have it all pretty well explained back to what caused the big bang. Yes they make mistakes like they did with Neanderthals and other species. As science finds more answers, the gaps are filled and the unexplained becomes clear.

                          The "God" figure maybe caused the big bang. The Bible story which is creation, was totally blown out of the water a long time ago. Yet people still will find this myth a wonderful excuse to make money, keep the ignorant ever ignorant and kill people.

                          Really? Explain how life comes from non-life. This can't be explained. Sometimes things combine to form new compounds, but life does not arise. Science cannot yet explain this.

                          And potter was right here:

                          Evolution, and all the facts of organisms on the planet millions of years ago does not put a hole in the creationist debate.

                          Evolution does not prove or disprove that there is/was a "god".

                          And before anyone gets their panties in a bunch. I fully believe that there is no god, and do not believe in creationism. I simply believe in people getting their facts straight when arguing something.

                          Google "Theistic Evolution". Creation does not conflict with evolution at all.

                            You should read more before making ignorant statements. The original word used, that our English Bibles translate as "day", was "yom." Yom has three meanings: dusk to dawn, 24 hour our period, or an endless age of time.

                            From the context of the rest of the original language, it becomes apparent that "age of time" is the correct interpretation. The Bible also says that a day with God is as a thousand years with man. In other words, time is meaningless to God, and is NOT 24 hour "days".

                              actually there are quite a few scientific theories that make way more sense than anything thats written in the bible.

                              religion is a hoax to turn people into sheep and take their money. it plays with peoples fear and especially before reformation with peoples hope that they are not themselves responsible for their fate. it always better to hope for an afterlife in paradise when you are an enslaved peon than realizing that you are being fucked big time with no hope at all

                                    Can you point me to one that specifically addresses life coming from non-life? If so, you're the winner! On an atheist board, nobody was able to point me to such a theory.

                                          The Bible was written beginning in 1500BC. Coins were first minted for money in 700BC (800 years later). There goes that theory.

                                            for christs sake (pun intended) let's not focus on the term money as in coins but also in goods, animals or whatever that priests demanded from their folks

                                            which i might point out was something that made Jesus seriously upset with them. but i guess you know the story

                                              to me anything of that is way more probable than some god who decided to turn this lump of rocks into a livable planet

                                              but since you "believe", you dont need any proof for your theory anyways. religion is convenient when you dont want to stress yourself

                                                Could you dumb it down right the way down ?

                                                  True. The problem confounds itself when they all think it's the word of the big man in the sky.

                                                  Frank21, go pick up a book on the subject before you post again.
                                                  I know more of the subject as will ever do ;-).
                                                  You think homo sapiens exist exactly 200 000 years and no single day longer or shorter just because some little news article tells you so.
                                                  Tomorrow there will be an other news article stating it is 195 000 years and you will defend that story. All you can do is repeat some news articles sir.
                                                  I know for a fact that homo sapiens exist for at least MILLION years.

                                                  And that civilizations have flourished and perished just like evolution which is a huge blow for you extremist Darwinist views that evolution is a never ending straight line up.
                                                  Ignoring the "out of place" artifacts which proof that Darwinism is a total hoax.

                                                  Just the idea that homo sapiens exist exactly 200 000 years it totally crazy in my eyes anyway. Since that article was written a while ago how long does homo sapiens exist exactly according to you sir?

                                                    and also wars are an important factor, they seem to make people creative.
                                                    The big step forward wasn't the wheel. It was the axle, or what ever they chose to use to fix it to a cart so it could spin.

                                                    The steam engine would of been useless without the discovery of metals and hot to smelt them.

                                                    My point is if you look at the information you see that there was no one thing that that made a real difference. They're all inter related. If there was one thing, it has to be the invention of writing, which relied on the invention of language. This made the inventions able to be shared.

Paul you must know that English professor who made a lot of TV programs about religions... in one of these shows he was travelling through the US and talking to some religious people and they were totally convinced that the planet is 15.000 years old and there was no way for him to have a normal debate about it... so basically these fanatics just deny everything modern science has come up with in the past decades. God created earth 15.000 years ago is what they keep thinking. But what happens when they get seriously ill? Do they go to their church to pray and ask God to cure them, or do they go to a hospital where people are being treated based on modern science?
                                                      This is the problem when some men decide to control the rest with a mythical being. They simply want control and money, the base of all religions and power.

                                                      I like Paul as a person, he's allright, I just don't always agree with him about professional matters even though our backgrounds are a bit similar - old school producers from the pre-web years.

                                                      People who continue to bash him do have issues with themselves.
                                                      Ban this person for saying this.

                                                      The first big step in cultivation was farming. When people started to grow their own vegetables and breed their own animals, they had less reasons for having to move around all the time so they started to convert large pieces of forests into farming land, using the wood for building houses and for heating and cooking. They started to live in villages instead of tents and with that, the battles came; communities expanding their territory and taking the communities around them. I don't think this contributed to the destruction of the planet much as much as machines, trains and cars but cutting all the forests was a start of course. Europe once was one huge forest, now most forests are gone and we expect south-American and Asian countries to stop with the de-foresting.
                                                      And had the need and time to invent writing. See how it's all related?

                                                      When you're family is starving, you really stop caring about the rain forest and endangered species. If the advanced world want to save these things, they have to pay the undeveloped world to look after them and not destroy them.

                                                        it is very wrong teaching children about religion, it should be done after 18yo in a non bias environment learning about all religion not just the ones followed by the parents

                                                          It is pretty amazing. What triggered that change is an interesting story. Though inventions people mentioned like wheels, axles, and roads were important, those all existed thousands of years ago. What happened around 150 years ago was industry.

                                                          Until then, most people worked feeding themselves, either farming crops or, in England, raising sheep. Craftsmen made things for trade in their shops, but most peple farmed, as they had for thousands of years. A guy noticed that farmers in England had little to do during the winter, and sometimes they were hungry during the winter months. His idea was that he'd put up money to buy raw wool, then pay the farmers to process the wool during the winter, when they had nothing better to do. That worked great - he sold the yarn at a nice profit and the farmers earned money in their off-season. More people started doing it and cottage industry was born.

                                                          He had invented two related things. First, he invested CAPITAL - he put up the money to buy the materials. Second, he HIRED people to do the work. Before that, craftsmen owned their own one man shop, maybe with an apprentice. Investing capital and hiring people made it possible to build factories, and invest in expensive machines to aid the work. (That's when the steam engine comes in. A one man shop could neither build a steam engine nor afford to buy one.)

                                                          Imagine if there were no datacenters, no hosting companies. Each webmaster had to buy their own server and learn how to run it before the could build their first web page. It's so much better when Brad can invest millions in Mojohost, hire server admins, and build racks and racks of servers protected by a $50,000 UPS system. Then you can just get hosting from him. He does that, of course, for the same reason the wool agents invested - to reap profit by providing a valuable service. More to the point, how many of us could ever build a car? We all have cars because Henry Ford invested CAPITAL to build a factory and HIRED people. Those are the twin inventions of the industrial revolution - capitalism and employment.

                                                              There's a lot of holes in the creationist debate. Ass-holes.

                                                                      In the Bible God is described as no respecter of persons. He does not treat people differently because they are white, black, rich or poor. The man that was sent to hell was given a specific answer when he found out hell was a real place. Those who wind up in hell after they die WILL GET THE VERY SAME ANSWER.
                                                                      This is clearly a lie as this mythical figure god does treat people very differently. Like the Egyptians for not doing as they were told to, or the Canaanites for living in the places the Jews wanted or were told to take from them. According to the Bible he even told them to kill all the children goats and animals. not sure what he had against the animals. But he definitely treated the Canaanites and the occupants of the lands very differently.

                                                                      And this has continued through time. This mythical figure god has been treating people very differently through time, right up to today. He tells his representatives on Earth to go tell their followers what to do and how to act. Did he tell the Jews in Israel today to treat the Muslims differently, to continue to steal their land?

                                                                      Did he tell the Spanish to go to S. America and inflict genocide on the natives and steal their land and gold?

                                                                      Did he tell Roman Catholics and Protestants to burn each other at the stake?

                                                                      Did he tell Popes to burn people at the stake for telling the scientific truth?

                                                                      This mythical, made up figure has been telling people, according to them, to kill people ever since they dreamed him up.

                                                                      Quoting what one man writes 700 years before as a prophecy and then making a later story fit the prophecy is easy.

                                                                      The one thing that the Jews were very fond of was, inventing Messiahs. Seems they found one that stuck and then changed sides.

                                                                          The steam engine would of been useless without the discovery of metals and hot to smelt them.

They're all inter related. If there was one thing, it has to be the invention of writing, which relied on the invention of language. This made the inventions able to be shared.

I understand that, but at the same time, given the universe that we're living in, the idea that there is some kind of first cause that's running things is very persuasive. It might not be the God of Westboro Baptist Church, it might not be the God of Al-Qaeda, and it might not be the God of Abraham, but something could very well be running things. The order of the universe as we see it, the interlocking nature, and the way things work together, are persuasive of the idea that there may be some overarching first cause.

                                                                                  very different things.

                                                                                            very different things.

                                                                                            Yes it's all about the "Creationist v Evolutionist" debate. Still side tracking is fun.

Debating the existence of the spirit is like debating the existence of back pain - those who have it, know it.
