I should have phrased what I did differently; shrews have more basal characters than rodents do. Saying that they are more basal could give people the wrong idea. My bad.

We know it doesn't! It just serves to remind us of His Presence. Just like none of us here at CC are here to convince a man there is a God - but, like those pictures, we can show a man the same.

Even the ugly things in nature prove the existence of God because they were all made for a purpose.

Usually I go by assuming that, but the title of this topic threw me off this time.

QUOTE FROM TKO......

I'm pretty sure what I said was at the very least coherent. nw2u and Tintin were sufficient rebuttal, but not without its own consequences. It is a Christian site so I won't go into it in detail. Just wanted to say that pretty stuff appearing in nature doesn't hint at the existence of a god, much less a specific one; just like pictures of disgusting things do not point towards the idea of a god not existing.

END QUOTE........

this is merely YOUR opinion, and you are certainly entitled to that, BUT it IS MERELY your opinion..........not Science, not Fact, nor is it Biblical. In fact Scripture will argue against you...............try reading Chapters 38 and 39 of Job.

If you don't like Christianity, why are you on a Christian Web Site? Just to try and be a "spiritual downer" for folks who love God? If so, that's just weird.............

anyway..............there is a reason for the "ignore" option.

YOU CAN IGNORE THE ABOVE QUOTE........................ I see by your profile picture, that you are just a young man, and you MAY or MAY NOT actually be searching for answers...........sooooooooo, I'll cut you some slack on your anit-Christian comments.......after all, we were ALL young once, and the Lord knows I was about as wild as one can be......

So, God bless, and I pray that one day the Holy Spirit will touch your heart and you will KNOW THERE IS A GOD!

Comments of KringledOne, this thread.......

Picturesof pretty things don't prove a god. I could post pictures of ugly things; wouldthat be evidence against God?

I can find pictures of hyenas eating out of the butts of elephants... what doesthat say about God?


I'll justgo ahead and say that there seems to be a severe lack of evidence.

QUOTEFROM JB: Rom 1v20: For ever since thecreation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternalpower and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in andthrough the things that have been made (His handiworks). So [men] are withoutexcuse [altogether without any defense or justification]...(AMP)

(youranswer) That is neat. If only it was actually the case.
I'mpretty sure what I said was at the very least coherent. nw2u and Tintin weresufficient rebuttal, but not without its own consequences. It is a Christiansite so I won't go into it in detail. Just wanted to say that pretty stuffappearing in nature doesn't hint at the existence of a god, much less a specificone; just like pictures of disgusting things do not point towards the idea of agod not existing.
YOUR LASTCOMMENT:
None ofmy comments were anti-Christian

What you fail to understand, possibly because of your youth, is that ALL of your comments have been anti-Christian........any commentary which denies the Lord God is anti-Christian...

As you clearly claim to NOT be a Christian, it is understandable you would make such comments.

One mistake you make is thinking that you are of "sufficient knowledge" to instruct those here who are Believers........but given your youth, that too is understandable.

I'm glad to see you are finally beginning to understand.........good for you..........who knows? Before long you might even invest in a good Bible and begin to discover the wisdom within Scriptures............not to mention the eternal salvation awaiting.

Hello p_rehbein
excellent pic

Luke 12:27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

The question if there is a God is only interesting for philosophers... I just BELIEVE in Him.
