Description: Why I accept the theory of evolution. P.S. I do respect other beliefs, but it's not easy to think of creation stories as anything other than fairy tales.

DrRandale ::: Favorites that is wrong. you can't have absolute certainty but only reasonable certainty through logic and reason, mathematics, science, history and logical inference from common everyday observation. (in order from highes to lowest certainty everything else is speculation.) If you think your book is right you have to falsify it through science for example... 07-08-24 22:06:10 _____________________________________________________
DrRandale ::: Favorites the theory does not say anything about where life came from... it does not need it! And one other thing: read a chemisty book! Organic substances can naturally be formed from inorganic materials: Friedrich Wöhler found that out in 1828! 07-08-24 21:58:14 _____________________________________________________
scubasteve657 ::: Favorites And you really have no idea about the history of this planet. Do some research: you'll find all our modern science reflected in ancient india. 07-06-21 22:03:53 _____________________________________________________
scubasteve657 ::: Favorites There's two processes of knowledge: one is direct perception through observation. This is limited by our limited senses. The other is receiving knowledge from a higher source. If the source is perfect, than the knowledge is perfect. The process of delivering from guru, to disciple, to grand-disciple, etc. maintains the integrity. Thus, even after 5000 years, the Gita remains unaltered. 07-06-21 22:03:34 _____________________________________________________
scubasteve657 ::: Favorites Science: "a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws" This is exactly what the Bhagavad-Gita is. However, where are science only deals with material nature, there science deals with matter, mind, and spirit. 07-06-21 22:00:39 _____________________________________________________
rowsdowersavesus ::: Favorites Send me a specific site. I don't want to search through the site for the science of the soul. No, that is from a pre-scientific time. It isn't scientific. 07-06-21 21:54:08 _____________________________________________________

scubasteve657 ::: Favorites Actually it's quite scientific. And your intelligent enough to know that you're only assuming there's no soul. The science of the soul is explained in the Bhagavad-Gita As It Is, available at vedabase(dot)net Again, you just haven't heard of it. 07-06-21 21:49:04 _____________________________________________________
rowsdowersavesus ::: Favorites 1: I have heard such, though it's hardly scientific. 2: There is no soul 3: I doubt we can evolve into demigod. 07-06-21 21:37:49 _____________________________________________________

scubasteve657 ::: Favorites Darwin is challenged quite nicely in Prabhupada's "Life comes from Life", which can be found at prabhupada(dot)org(dot)uk 07-06-21 21:10:36 _____________________________________________________
