When will Creationists finally admit that they've lost the debate with Evolutionists?

Question

It's over right?

Creationists are like an illiterate football team in the 4th quarter, with the score 63-7, thinking that they can still win, simply because they are unable to truly read the scoreboard.

What true argument can they present at this point?

Even their own people (educated theists) have accepted evolution.

Answer 1

First your assumptions that "educated theists" have accepted evolution are not entirely true.  Second, We will stop fighting when evolution actually brings "proof" that there was evolution say maybe one of those missing links.    By which I mean we won't stop fighting.

Answer 2

There are plenty of arguments against evolution (trans-speciation). Here are a few:

para-conformities

poly-stratic fossils

the ASTOUNDING LACK of transitional forms in the fossil record

the pre-Cambrian Explosion

complex traits

I could go on, but scientific arguments against trans-speciation aside, I imagine Creationists will admit defeat when God is proven wrong. I'm not holding my breath or betting against Him.

Joh 17:17 "Sanctify them through Your truth. Your Word is truth."

1Th 2:13 "And for this cause we thank God without ceasing, that when you received the Word of hearing, of God, you welcomed it as the Word of God, not as a word of men, but as it is, truly the Word of God, which also effectually works in you who believe."

Luk 16:17 "And it is easier for the heaven and earth to pass than for one tittle of the Law to fail."

Mat 5:18 "For truly I say to you, Till the heaven and the earth pass away, not one jot or one tittle shall in any way pass from the Law until all is fulfilled."

Answer 3

They lost over a hundred years ago, they just haven't figured it out yet.  

Answer 4

I....dislike the negativity and attack towards creationists, but your analogy for people who disbelieve in evolution is uncanny.

Most people who don't believe in it know nothing about it and refuse to listen to proof and arguments to the contrary, or learn about it at all.

Answer 5

So long as they're able to continue manipulating the political system, they wont admit it.

Answer 6

Did you ever learn about how human beings grow in the womb? There are so many details and wondrous things that go into it. The creation of life is amazing and not hard to grasp for me. People think it's because this has been pounded into my head since infancy. But the truth is that there came a time that I realized and had to choose. When you look at life, the life of an animal, or plant, or human, how has that happened by just chance and evolution. We came from the seas is what people say. Well in the Bible it says that God created. God created the Heavens and the Earth. God created every living human being and animal and plant. Now we have different species because of cross breeding. People trying to create something better than it already is. It's not possible. We are not the creator. God is.

There are miracles that have happened in my life that if it wasn't my own life, I would not believe it. People are so blind to just a little faith. Just faith the size of a mustard seed. It really is not bad. Faith makes you stronger. Having nothing to believe in is scary. I would be like leaves floating in the wind. But even God knows where they will land.  

Answer 7

When they actually have lost it.. Which will be never..

God bless you !

Answer 8

I am here to announce from God Himself that the debate has just started but is already over, atheists just don't know it yet.

Answer 9

All they can say now is:

"OH Don't take the bible literally..."

Absolute rubbish.

Answer 10

they wont realize it or admit it, because they have "faith" and have been "saved"

Answer 11

People can believe what they want, even if I don't believe it.

What's the big deal?  

It's not really about winning or losing, is it?

It's about being right or wrong...which doesn't really make sense in this venue.  It's not like we can reach through our screens and smack them whenever we are offended.  How many cheeks would be red if everyone did that with every question and answer?  

Chris would probably be dead, but that's besides the point.

Answer 12

Oh,  very witty!

Look, there is always going to be two sides to the coin, you either grow up and accept, or not. Your choise, my friend! =)

Answer 13

The only thing they can keep saying is that the Bible said so. And no matter what we can and cannot do we can't go up against that form of ignorance. Especially since we have enough proof to convince even the most avid scientific skeptic, but not the religious right.  

Answer 14

If they did that their entire religion would crumble into dust.  And their preachers would have to get real jobs.

Have any creationists noticed that humans are mammals?  Just further advanced than others?  And if god made us in his own image, does that mean that god is also a mammal?

Answer 15

While I believe in evolution you can not expect everyone to believe the same way you do. How we were created, made, evolved, whatever is subjective. No one really knows the true answer to when life began. People are gonna believe what they want.  The debate can not be lost because there is no true answer to make someone wrong (or right.)  

Answer 16

Soon, I hope.  This "debate" is getting old.  In a debate, you present one side of an argument with evidence to support your claim, and the opposition presents the other side, with evidence to support their claim. .  In this debate, the Evolution side can produce all the evidence, but we are still waiting for the Creation side to present theirs.  I think we are going to have a long wait.

Answer 17

The Bible is Creationism, That is one debate we will never lose. just because you can get more people to believe a lie does not make it true. Evolutionist, like Hitler believed the more you tell a lie and the bigger the lie is the more that people will believe you. He was a devoted evolutionist.

Answer 18

The truth is:

Evolutionists are like an illiterate football team in the 4th quarter, with the score 63-7, thinking that they can still win, simply because they are unable to truly read the scoreboard.

Dr. Francis Collins, head of the human Gnome ( DNA Mapping ) Project said that the DNA which has been mapped has proven once and for all that Evolution could not have happened but evolutions won't admit it yet.  --  Time Magazine, June or July, 2000

Answer 19

They wont. But no one will debate them. To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead. There is no debate. Because evolution is fact.

Answer 20

Every time they lose a court case e.g. Edwards v. Aguillard, Dover v. Kitzmiller etc. it reinforces their belief that there is a massive liberal conspiracy to conceal the truth, so it just makes them fight harder.

Answer 21

if you keep saying that you might even convince someone else.  Eventually.

Answer 22

I don't really have an agrument.  I just don't think fossil remains proves evolution.  It only proves those species once existed.

Answer 23

Because we haven't lost the debate. There is absolutely no proof of Evolution. No transitional fossils.

Answer 24

Well, it took them about 400 years to stop fighting the idea that the Earth was the center of the universe after scientists first suggested it, so my guess is it'll be about another 250-300 years.

Answer 25

Maybe those weak in faith or false to their religion, but true Christians who believe in the one true God, will never accept your evolution theory because evolution does not exist except in the minds of unbelievers. PERIOD. Your fossils only prove the great variety of God's creation. You have no transitional fossils so you come up with the excuse that all fossils are transitional, HOW LAME. To me your thumbs down only shows your frustration, so bring 'em on.

Answer 26

Never as long as they want to teach that for 100,000 to 200,000 years man existed and could not write or communicate. When we know that in just over 6000 years, from the time the first writings were found to now,  we have been able to put man on the moon, can build space ships, talk on cell phones, get on the internet, etc. If evolution were true then it should be at least another 100,000 - 250,000 before we got this advanced. How come things sped up so much?

You see all of recorded history has happened in the time frame that the Bible. No matter how much you want to argue with that, it is a fact. The oldest known writing is about 5500 years old. Where have you heard that number before?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3345...

Anything before that is just conjecture and not a fact. You see we have the real evidence on our side, not just what someone thinks happened.  

Answer 27

when god said evolution happened.
