No. I've seen no references to top scientists backing away from evolution.

I don't discount any and all forms of evolution, no. In any case, I don't say that it's not possible, either.

There are some vast issues with regard to space-time right from the very beginning.

I guess I should have been specific in that we have seen a move away from the Darwinian model of evolution with things like the Hawking theorem. The Hawking theorem also changes the timeline.

"Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished." Matt 5:17-18

"But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter of the Law to fail." Luke 16:17

Jesus said to him, "If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me." - Matt 19:21

"Sell your possessions and give to charity; make yourselves money belts which do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near nor moth destroys." - Luke 12:33

"The King will answer and say to them, `Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.' - Matt 25:40

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal." Matt 6:19

"THE LORD KNOWS THE REASONINGS of the wise, THAT THEY ARE USELESS." - 1st Corinthians 3:20
"Professing to be wise, they became fools," - Romans 1:22

Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, "And what about us, what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do not take money from anyone by force, or accuse anyone falsely, and be content with your wages." - Luke 3:14

You cannot serve God and wealth. - Matt 6:24

I find it quite enlightening that Jib, Splendour, Erf, nor any other Christian will step forward to defend these passages -- no doubt knowing your intent.

They won't do so, because they know this is just the tip of the iceberg.

They refuse to go there -- and thus continue to live in their fantasy world.

Whatever floats their ark, I guess.

Maybe that's because you are the worst arguer in teh history of the internets. (see below for an example)

That's because your interpretation sucks!

Then why did God Create, "the rest"?

No, what you're saying is that you're not 100% sure because how could you really know what I'm 100% sure of? I mean really?

WOW! This is freakin' great entertainment!

WWWOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW Horsey, steady now.. I can't prove to who, you? You are correct. To Me? You are incorrect. Therefore I have proven that God does exist, haven't I? Ok, moving along..

Did you see the last episode of Gilligan's Island?

So what % is it then that makes you capitalize "G"od, "E"ternal, and "H"eaven? Less then 25?

Oh, I already knew why we didn't I just wanted to argue about it.

Really? So how many OT laws have you broken today? And how many pigeons and doves did you sacrifice in atonement?

Oh, and how many possessions have you sold and given to the poor?

Jesus fulfilled the law in the very first verse.

But then he didn't in the second verse.

And what about your possessions?

The law was fulfilled. It didn't fail. Two words. Two very distinct meanings.

I am not going to spend time answering stupid questions with obvious answers.

I have no idea what you're talking about. A google search for the Hawking theorem turns up nothing about evolution.

Are you going to provide a source or just admit you were making stuff up?

According to Hawking:

How Long Did the Big Bang Take?

Seriously what are you talking about? Wtf does how long the big bang took have to do with anything?

Are you going to give me any source whatsoever to back up your claim that top scientists are slowly starting to back away from the theory of evolution?

Still no source? Surely you can find something.

I still have no idea what you're talking about. Please explain what possible relevance the amount of time the big bang took has with respect to evolution.

Mempho,

Either post a link or STFU regarding stuff you have no clue about.

Sincerely,

Christians like Mempho, Splendour and Big Erf really give the rest of them a bad rap.

Yeah, because it's much easier to give stupid answers to obvious questions, right?

Ezekiel 23:20 (New International Version)

20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.
