Does God exist? (William Lane Craig vs Peter Atkins debate) (17 Viewers)

You make it sound like this is ebola or something
Its not a bacteria or a virus, its a parasitic protozoa, and its there for a long time. Its extremely effective in infecting people, however, the survival rate is over 70%.

Innate resistances go a whole way, but offcourse for children its not ideal.

Having that said, getting a population that doesnt live past 25 is a worse thing then the current death rate.

If it was as effective as ebola, then it would be a diffrent thing because that would actually kill the continent if it was transferred by moskito's

I agree. Though the biggest mortality rate is with children, I guess that is the case for this.

 

[JuveJay]

fixed.

I actually liked that one.

And the one who has malaria in africa, what's his lifespan?

Anyway, no need to tell me that evolution doesn't taje the best way always. We have rus a fine example of a critical evolutionary failure.

He's like the human version of a platypus. Nature having a laugh

 

[Zacheryah]

Evolutions happen two ways


Its possible that you get a mutation in the genome during replication, and it is actually an improvement

Or, certain enviromental factors directly select certain fenotypes. For example giraffe's got their long neck. It used to be about as long as a horse. However, longer species could eat more leaves from the high trees, selecting out those with a longer neck.

another example is skin colour.

Place an african, with a nearly black skin colour in ireland, and he will get a severe shortage of vitamin D. there isnt much sun and his thick and dark pigmentation blocks most of it. A prolongued period of vit D shortage, will eventually lead to illness and death. they wont last 3 generations.

Ireland has a high % of gingers and very pale skin in general. they take enough vit D in. However, place a ginger in the african country where the people have the highest pigmentation, and within 20 years, they'll get skincancer and die.

A lot of people who "go beyond" end up in insane asylums.

A lot are put there by error

Oh and you too, we can see that even with evolution we get a critical mistake once in a while.

Criticial mistake of the evolution is the countries from baltica

Was that the Lorne Greene version of Battlestar Baltica?

Why cant animals go to heaven?

 

[IrishZebra]

no soul

 

[ALC]

if people can, then so can animals.

 

[AndreaCristiano]

no soul

I would say they still have an essence as they are of God so they could very well be there

 

[Salvo]

they aren't baptised though.

 

[AndreaCristiano]

they aren't baptised though.

Animals don't have free will nor reason and a theory of mind so they aren't in the same place as us. They are Gods creatures we are his children made in his image. We have a soul as we are in his image they are just part of his essence

 

[ALC]

so you can't go t heaven if you're not baptised?

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Unless you're a baby; you go to limbo.

 

[ALC]

Unless you're a baby; you go to limbo.

oh gotcha. i hope i don't spend too much time there, it doesn't sound fun.

 

[Salvo]

Animals don't have free will nor reason and a theory of mind so they aren't in the same place as us. They are Gods creatures we are his children made in his image. We have a soul as we are in his image they are just part of his essence

Of course they have free will?

Why cant animals go to heaven?

I've always wondered about that too. Seems unfair.

So do little babies who die at birth grow up in heaven? Or do they always stay the same size/weight/etc without the ability to talk etc?
