You people? Your god doesn't exist mate; try a different religion which
doesn't rely on evolution being false.

If you're going to make a cultural allusion, you should probably be
passingly familiar with the source of that cultural allusion.

Cultural allusion? Neither atheism nor evolution are cultural in nature
so I am not sure what you think I was alluding to culturally. Perhaps
you think I was alluding to your culture? I was certainly making an
assumption that you are a follower of an Abrahamic religion (a good bet
usually for someone with such an Anglo-Saxon name).

Ah, Seinfeld. A show that looks good but I have never had the
opportunity to watch. Maybe when I retire I will watch the box set on
repeat to stave off dementia.

Do.

Some of the references may be obscure at that time, but Seinfeld was good.

Tip: you can avoid the annoying threats about illegal copying, and get
decent subtitles (at least with e.g. the VLC player), by downloading a
technically illegal copy. I.e., buy the set, then download it. I think
it's a shame that the entertainment companies are unable to offer their
products in a properly usable way, that one must use of one's time and
bandwidth to obtain a decent version after buying e.g. a movie, but.

Cheers!, & Happy Xmas!,

All the same.

Also, I'm not even slightly religious. I am a militant agnostic.

Oxford Theoretical physicist Ard Louis explains his own view of how
science and faith relate to each other – one that recognises the fact
that faith influences the whole of life. Ard gives examples to show
how this affects the way he conducts his work and relationships with
his colleagues.

C.S. Lewis believed in the G-d of the Bible and evolution. Ben
Shapiro at dailywire.com has somewhat similar beliefs.

I take it you are also atheist?

To acknowledge evolution is to place death before sin. The Bible
teaches that death was the result of sin, and did not precede sin,
that the world God created was perfect and that there was no death.
There was no fighting. Animals lived together in harmony, etc.
It was paradise on Earth. But when sin entered in, that's when
death came, and disease, and everything else that we have in this
world today.

Evolution directly and fully contradicts the Bible, and places the
the death of Jesus Christ as being absolutely meaningless.

To accept evolution is to deny God with a full force rebellion
against Him. You might as well be spitting in His face.

[Rick C. Hodgin]

Death is an enemy. It is judgment for sin. It is an enemy Jesus
defeated at the cross. It's why we need Jesus.

Another enemy of God, Satan, is teaching man false things in an
attempt to suppress knowledge of sin, death, our need of
salvation, and the future end of all who aren't saved.

They're not the same. Welsh, a survivor of the language that was
spoken in what's now southern Britain before the Romans came, is like
a Hebrew National hot dog. English, which you're calling Anglo-Saxon,
is like sausages.

Louis

[Mr Flibble]

If he was real I would spit in his face because he is evil but he isn't
real; evolution is real.

You're very intelligent, Leigh. Gifted. Accomplished. But there are
some things you don't have a proper handle on yet. If you're interested,
there is a path to the truth. You can even discover it on your own just
by seeking it. But there are others who will also help guide you if you
want.

You have tremendous value, Leigh. It's why He offers salvation for free.
He counts everything He went through to pay the price of sin as so very
precious and dear. His love for His creation to save them from sin, and
deliver them from death. It's a steep price He paid, byt because if His
love ... He doesn't pass that price on to us. All can come to Him and be
saved ... even those who, like me, once said He wasn't real.

-----
Love. Jesus is love, Leigh. When you look to that cross, and you look
at the sin in your life, and realize what God dud for us while we were
yet sinners ... it'll open up the fountains of your eyes. At least
that's been my experience.

Which is why he doesn't fall for the off-topic fairy tales and
pseudo-science you keep peddling on these groups.

I do not describe fairy tales, but truth. And I ask you to personally
investigate and prove out for yourself every one of my claims. Every
one. You'll find every one holds up to the most intense scrutiny, and
every aspect of observable science because it is the truth.

Truth has a name, Ian: Jesus.

John 14:6.

[Melzzzzz]

I don't usually swear, but fuck the truth. God is dead. Satan lives!

I'm lucky enough to enjoy an idle life;
but, with that, comes idle thoughts, 
some of which are _unwanted and/or _unproductive.

When that happens ( unwanted thoughts ),
I repeat the word "Zero" ( to zero the thought ).
Posting to Usenet and/or watching videos also works.

It's silly, I know, but better than 
OverIndulging in heroin, alcohol and/or religion.
