thats why I have no doubts in saying that the Earth was MORE than tailored to our needs. I mean, is it really nescessary to have a molten core? sure, its nescessary now. but I dont think it was billions of years ago during the creation of life

then Earth was mostly molten anyhow.

see, this is one of the reasons I'm agnostic and not athiest. theres just too much coincidence.

Yes... no one knows what started life. The amount of energy needed to make proteins arange into DNA is estimated at stagering amounts, the only thing powerful enough(and reasonalbe enough) is solar winds. The arguement goes like this, when Earth was being created, before the signs of life appeared, before the poles were in position, Earth had a very weak Electromagnetic Shield(about 35% of the one we have today). So scientist think that somehow a solar storm was able to hit the system, and penetrate the shield and somehow hit proteins in the right way, to start life. Now even with the weak electromagnetic shield the odds of that happening are enormous, so you have to wonder what really happened.

they think that it might not have been proteins originally. something about replicating sugars?
its a theorey anyway.

Well, it would still take immesuarable amounts of energy.

Well the anthropomorphic view is that everything seems so carefully tailored to our creation because if it wasn't perfect then we would never have come into being to wonder about it.

*shrugs*

yes, but you see there are way too many things that wouldnt matter in normal evolutionary scope, but are really nescessary for technology. for instance the relative abundance of plutonium and uranium.
in fact, many of these things are detrimental in the evolutionary sense.

We have to remember that everything wasnt perfect, there were sub species of humans that survived, sadly however they met some circumstance or other that killed them of. But i think of that as more of chance, it might have happened to us, or there might have been two diffrent humanoid species on our planet. Think of the wars that could have caused.

still, theres too much coincidence that doesnt guide evolution and somesuch.

Well at least our world has finally settled on the fact that Evolution is true. It took us what, 200 years? I guess well tackel how we came to be here next, who knows what will happen then.

two points, 1) haven't you ever heard of the intelligent design theorey? damn, I hate radical religious folks...
2) it's been about 150 years exactly (since publication), not 200
but this is just me being nitpicky.

Darwin was not the first with the idea, he was the first to actually have good proof. And yes i have heard of intelligent design, but thats sounds very...questionable.

really? this is news to me.
who was it?

but thats sounds very...questionable.

its plain out bs. its got no supporting evidence whatsoever.
to say god rules by evolution is one thing, to say god rules in a different manner is another complete story.

Well, all theories have their merits. Some have more support than others, but we can not exclude those that dont. I personally doubt its truths, but i still wonder what kind of luck made us(as a species) be who we are.

I am a conservative Christian and I find some of the ID stuff to be a bit lacking. The fact that my Bible doesnt go into detail about EXACTLY how things came to be tells me that it really isnt that important to my faith. Yes I believe God created everything but his methods of doing so could have been the very things the ID community TRY to refute.

its plain out bs. its got no supporting evidence whatsoever.

If there was proof then it wouldn't be called "religion." Faith is, by definition, accepting something without proof.

thats the point.
it has no merits whatsoever. its not a scientific theorey, its just super-evangelicals trying to find some way to reinstitute a christian based regime in America.

I got a good quote from one of my fovirite books, not i just have to find it.
