for many, many apllications.

@fred»
Evolution is one of many process God could have used in creation» Thank you
for being the one on this blog to finally
make this seemingly obvious point!
Since we all need
evolution for the flu vaccine and sick individuals with diseases such as AIDS need it, it only
makes sense that our politicians should step up and
make a clear stance in favor of it.
Wake up people,
MAKE politicians answer questions and come up with solutions
for the problems that matter (economy, wealth disparity, lost jobs etc etc), whether or not your kids learn the theory of
evolution in school will be of little comfort if they have no home to go to after school.
Evolutions makes sense

@KatMat: your analogy would begin approaching realism if: — during the pledge of allegiance kids were forced to say «one nation under The Orioles» — our nation's currency said «In Dallas Cowboys We Trust» — if millions were slaughtered, tortured and burned to death because they weren't fans of The Pittsburgh Penguins — if NASCAR fans endlessly attempted to have Intelligent Car Driving taught beside
Evolution in science class as a possible explanation
for how mankind developed — if «the 5 D's» of Dodgeball (Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, Dodge) were constantly attempted to be
made into law so everyone would live by the same ridiculous notions, even if those notions knowingly discriminate — if nutters constantly claimed America was founded on the principles of Darts, even though our country SPECIFICALLY calls
for a separation between Darts and State because the founders knew the inherent dangers of Darts becoming government instead of staying in the realm of sport where it belongs

for it, or does he have a big kitchen knife on him ready to use if she does... there she sits, with that «please - don «t - stab - me - repeatedly smile on he fear - petrified face...
The American Association
for the Advancement of Science, the world's largest general scientific society with more than 130,000 members and over 262 affiliated societies and academies of science including over 10 million individuals, has

This point of view fully respects the progressive experimental concentration of human thought in a more and more lively awareness of its unifying role; but in place of the undefined point of convergence required as term
for this

made manifest to us and established
for us as our objective, that Word «in whom all things subsist.»

actually you do nt have to prove the many deities or Gods that they really exist, because they really had existed in their times, They are part of the evolutionary process
for us humans to transcend to higher consciousness.To simplify the analogy, when we were young and we are in the lower grade school, we were taught simple subjects not advance literatures but simple stories even mythicals, The same with religion, thousands of years ago when there was no science yet, primitive people had a religion, of course man
made faiths to conform with their state of mind or intellect.But later atfter thousands of years we evolve into a more educated people and so new concept of God again was presented to them, another man
made concept, and this go on and on, until a few thiousand years ago.monotheism, Judaism, christianity, islam, buddhism, etc also evolved, But with the accelerated
evolution, these faith again is threatend with obsolesencs because of of scientific developments and education.In panthroteistic faith, the future religion needs to conform to evolutionary process, This proves that God is always there guiding the change.And it his will that
made this a reality in history since the begining of the universe 13 billion years ago, and this will continue to exist until He will completely fulfill His will to infinity, Thats PANTHROTHEISM, the futue, man
made religion under His guidance through scientifiic evoluition after the Bi Bang

make a case

Actually, it
makes a hell of a lot more sense to me
for it to be that way than any days = eons theories and other stupid ideas people come up with trying to
make the bible fit
evolution.
For example, the theory of
evolution is contradicted by the existence of technically advanced pyramids that we could not even re-create today, or by ancient hieroglyphics that depict our solar system before Galileo ever
made his discoveries, whereas these things fit perfectly well within the Christian account that acknowledges the antediluvian and / or pre-Adamic worlds.
«Founded by atheism, claimed by atheism, supported by atheism, and exclusively in the interests of atheism, suppressing without mercy every jot of evidence
for the divine existence, and so
making a positive rational faith in God wholly impossible, the doctrine of
evolution may well be set down as not only a foe to theism, but a foe of the most thoroughgoing sort.»
With Beecher setting the pace, a number of men not only

The first of these is
made up of the evolutionary biologists themselves; the second consists of those who believe that
evolution requires a materialist, and hence atheistic, interpretation (evolutionary materialism); the third group comprises the proponents of Intelligent Design Theory (IDT); and the fourth is the evolutionary theists, those who consider Darwinian
evolution not only compatible with biblical faith, but an illuminating framework
for arriving at a deeper understanding of God than is implied in the notion of a designer.
The point I am attempting to
make is that a necessary condition
for evolution at all is an increase in complexity which can not be accounted
for on a materialistic view.
One thing needs to be
made clear when athiests argue that «science» is proof

Man has a strong conservative element in him,
for it is his ability to conserve and hand on the heritage from the past that has

evolution.
For Bergson, like many process thinkers (Peirce, James and Dewey come particularly to mind), the entire concept of «necessity» only
makes sense when applied internally to abstractions the intellect has already devised.11 Of course, one can tell an evolutionary story about how the human intellect came to be a separable function of consciousness that emphasizes abstraction (indeed, that is what Bergson does in Creative
Evolution), but if one were to say that the course of development described in that story had to occur (i.e., necessarily) as it did, then one would be very far from Bergson's view (CE 218, 236, 270).
In order
for the world to be independent of God and to possess its own existence, or to undergo a genuine self - transcendence in
evolution, its creative ground would in some way
make itself absent from that world instead of overwhelming it with divine presence.
The consortium describes the Templeton Foundation as having «
made up to $ 3 million available
