Calling Atheism a religion is like calling bald a hair color.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof!

The worldwide scientific research community from over the past 140 years has discovered that no known hypothesis other than universal common descent can account scientifically for the unity, diversity, and patterns of terrestrial life. This hypothesis has been verified and corroborated so extensively that it is currently accepted as fact by the overwhelming majority of professional researchers in the biological and geological sciences (AAAS 1990; NAS 2003; NCSE 2003; Working Group 2001).

No alternate explanations compete scientifically with common descent, primarily for four main reasons: (1) so many of the predictions of common descent have been confirmed from independent areas of science, (2) no significant contradictory evidence has yet been found, (3) competing possibilities have been contradicted by enormous amounts of scientific data, and (4) many other explanations are untestable, though they may be trivially consistent with biological data.

All of the ID arguments are based on refuting universal common descent. None offer any proof that god did anything.

Does anybody have any pics of this god-dude? Hello?





It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics.

I can tell you from me where you can go without much trouble to find out about the pattern by nature. I, for example, remember making a presentation about nature and so you can read here without too much trouble with this information. I often use these templates now and am very happy with them. I hope that it will be useful. Good luck.
