I love this song. It's got mariachi horns! It's about an insecure guy who was left because he couldn't actually commit to a marriage relationship, and now he's trying to pretend that it actually was a 'til death do us part' relationship because he realizes what he actually lost. But really, he's just continuing to be immature. But it's got mariachi horns. For reference's sake, though, I do also like all the Weird Al songs a

[quote who="Dr Guy" reply="49" id="3303039"]Quoting Jythier, reply 29I don't like talking to you because you constantly insult anyone who believes in Christ, or really, anything different than you say. Actually, the only insult she gave me was that I was not pretty. But that is not really an insult if it is true (and it is).[/quote] Alf is gorgeous, just ask him. You agree with her in several key areas.

You realize that science cannot prove the earth as either 6000 or billions of years old, right? Either way you are making assumption, and that isn't science. The mainstream assumptions lead to billions of years old, and the assumptions when viewed through a Biblical lens lead to 6000 years old... but neither can be scientifically proven.

What bugs me is that I have an understanding of the science, and when I criticize it, I am told I don't understand it, and to look at this new piece of it, which fits right in with my understanding of it, but my position is still somehow invalid. If you say so. Also, that is basically your entire approach to the conversation - nothing anyone else says is valid unless it matches you, and therefore everyone is to be mocked by you and said to 'believe in magi

So, my statement to you is that the age of the earth is currently in that state of miscarried justice. There are facts that are unknown to scientists and as they are discovered, they will find that the earth is actually 6000 years old and that we are not actually from a common ancestor with apes.

Imagine there's a car on your street, and you observe it for a minute. It's moving very slowly. You can look at that and project that it will get to the street at that speed in an hour, and then you can come back in an hour and check to see if it is, indeed, at the end of the street. Evolutionary and origin science would be like examining that, and then trying to say where the car started from an hour before that. But you and I don't know where the car st

Hey, I swear I've seen that somewhere... Matthew 7:12! "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Of course, this isn't the first place it's from (which you ignored). The negative is found in Buddhism. It's funny that you think I needed to look it up.

I'm not a scientist. I don't really care that much about science. I'm an accountant, or a programmer, or something like that. But there are scientists who disagree with the scientists you agree with. I agree with them. Answers in Genesis, for one. See, they are able to look at those research papers, understand them, and find where the problems are and point them out, because they have been trained in those scientific fields. I can only tel

So, perhaps you should talk about the truth. For example, the Big Bang Theory is not an origins argument. It is the theory that explains how the observable universe acts currently. Evolutionary theory is a theory explaining how genetic changes take place in the observable universe. The problem is that instead of maintaining this, people take those theories and throw them back in time, making many assumptions about the past in order to create an alternate history.&nbs
