Wow, OUG. You're further gone than I thought - and I'm not referring to your creationist beliefs either. As someone who is currently studying criminology, I can only hope - for the sake of public safely - that you are posting this from a secure location. Despite your posting style indictating severe problems, I gave you the benefit of the doubt in regards to your potential to be reasonable because others here treat you in such a way, but they're wrong in doing so.
Goodbye. Posted by AJ Philips, Friday, 28 March 2014 10:16:44 PM

What basis for 'creation'?
GENESIS? When I start reading Genesis I find myself picturing a group of swarthy farmers and their families, wives, adolescents and children, sitting around a central glowing fire in a large thatched communal hut, with smoke billowing up through a central hole in the thatch, and there towards the middle of their circle sits an old full-bearded man, slightly elevated on a pillow or a small pile of skins, with the firelight illuminating his face, and his eyes glowing reddish, as he holds the gathering spellbound, as his father had before him, and his father before him, addressing similar groups: “Our God, the Father of us all, caused there to be a great light to warm the day and a smaller light to soften the dark of night, and sowed He the heavens above with a carpet of glowing embers to guide us in our travels, and gathered He together the waters for seas, streams and lakes, and into which He caused there to be fishes and great whales, and on the land caused there to be grass and grains and forests of trees with many fruits, and cattle and abundant life for meat, and many creeping and slithering things, and above the land He caused there to be fowl of the air, and for all of this we here give thanks.” I can picture such groups scattered across the continents telling their own version in their own way, giving thanks for the seasons of sowing and reaping, of fishing and hunting, and of gathering the fruits of the earth and the fowl of the air. I can see some groups remarking on the travels of the great whales, and others speaking of the great migrations and the great Elephants, and of the big cats and the many dangers of the land and the water, and the amazement of it all.

Continued:
But some things are strange about the Genesis version: whereas there is mention of whales to a people largely of the desert, of Egypt and the middle-east, who would have little possibility of seeing whales, there is no mention of elephants – those larger-than-life wanderers of the land – but then elephants didn’t live in the middle-east. Similarly, no mention of monkeys, or of lions, let alone any mention of ‘dinosaurs’ – but then of course the dinosaurs were long since extinct when Genesis was compiled. But there is mention of cattle, which could only have been domesticated quite late in the ‘human’ story. Also telling perhaps is the lack of recognition of the role of the ‘microbes’ in the story of ‘life’ and its ‘beginnings’ – but this omission is understandable, since they cannot be seen. This prompts the realisation that Genesis really only covers that which would have been directly familiar to the early middle-eastern writers and tellers of this version of ‘beginnings’, and long after Earth’s actual ‘creation’, long after life itself began, and long after the first man walked on the earth. No wonder people remain confused, for the further one delves into the book the more it reveals its relevance directly to the times, knowledge and conditions appertaining way back then (whenever that was), and that certainly couldn’t have been anywhere near the actual ‘beginning’.

4..///those..2..dumbed down..+..only have the repeating..OF THE mantra
[leT ME REVEAL..IT..IN ACTION
ME<<it took billions..of yeaRS TO..MAKE/THIS..[ape]>>
HE..<<>.Again,..which ape?...All apes?..Yes,..including us.
ME<<..THEN ONLY..100,000 YEARS..TO MAKE/THAT..[you]>>
HE<<..Wrong...Check the video..I linked to again...Your comprehension skills..are appalling...And again,..*we’re..still apes.
me<<..STATE..WHEN chimp/whatever..became man
YOUR Science..says 80/120,thousands of years ago..>>
he<<.There..is no..definitive line.>>[then/says..100,000..LOL.
HE,,<<..If you’re talking..about chimps...to humans,.that never happened...We were..never chimps.>>..[Inversion/perversion?..
That..brings me..to the next point
you..<<..If you don’t..accept evolution..or this scientifically impossible pig-ape-hybrid nonsense..that you..*love so much>>
now hang-on..lesT WE FORGET/earlier/you..said
persisting/in inverting..any/reply..
<<..Fine, OUG...So you don’t believe..the whole pig-ape-hybrid bit>>
me/..i raised/it..as it sounds..reasonable..[i know you..havnt bothered reading the theses..so accept..your statement..as made/by ignorance..to/deceive..?
ditto/you\said..<<..(I suspected you didn’t).>>

IE/,you<<..then,..according to you,..there is no stuff up
because there was nothing..to be stuffed-up to begin with.>>
then…
YOU<<..100,000 years ago..we were still Homo sapiens
and looked pretty much like we do now.
me<<PLEASE NOTE THE NEEDED CHANGES..FROM Chimp.. into chump>>
ME<<RUBBISH..YOU PRESUME APE/Evolved..into you
but..if pig..thats not aPE/THEN\..YOU STUFFED IT/UP..BADLY>>THEN CONFIRMS IT..by a redirection..based on reference/back to a refuted post..[where hE CUTS OUT..OVER/HALF/THE TIME-LINE..OF/WHALE EVOLUTION..FROM 65 MILLION Years to 15>?..OR 4?..[in his..MISBEGOTTEN/words?]
you<<..It’s a gradual process..that occurs over millions of years.>>
UNLESS ITS A WHALE?
but at/the end..we finaly aGREE..
<<You still can't get your head around..the fact
that species don't give birth..to other species.>>
AHHMEN..to/that

<<As for your ‘whale jawbone’ nonsense,..I already,,>>
[AVOIDED..answering by lOGIC/JUST REACTIVE INSANITY....you<< answered this in the first paragraph here…>> http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=16065#280906
where..You\he shortened..WHALE Evolution..by 40 million odd years or SO..CUTTING OFF MAny of the so called time/dependent-stePS.. evolutionists/claIM..WHALES..need/TO HAVE EVOLVED..by.
lol
A 49 million year old,..fully aquatic ancient whale fossil would clearly demonstrate..that the younger..so-called ‘transistional’ fossils were,..are..in fact,..as/if\othing..at all
[thus..the proof/for whales..'evolving'..is void..dead/morte

its been fun
