Is is probable that the Christian God does not exist.

My goodness, mind explosion going on here. Don"t involve numbers!! There is only one cookie on the plate here because as I have stated different nations have different names for an omnipotent being which I and a billion or so people know as God. So stop using my cookie scenario in your favor as I said nobody (unless omnipotent) knows the number of cookies. It"s like me trying to guess your name when there is an infinity amount of things that your name could be. It is also improbable that more than one exists. I know what you"re saying regarding infinity. Because I can just say "Bob" or any word imaginable and make him a God to myself. However we shouldn"t discuss that because it is improbable that more than one God exists, for the Bible and many texts like it state there is only one. By the way as a Seventh Day Adventist I believe in the trinity of God, that being God the Father, Jesus the son and the Holy Spirit co existing as one eternal being. Angels are not omnipotent, by the way. I believe the fallen angels, such as Lucifer, are the ones that make it so impossible to find a true God since it is written for us to beware of the false Gods on the earth. Most of what I say will somehow involve the bible which I think is mostly an instruction manual and requires faith and study to really believe with your heart I will not state direct quotes unless asked because I want people to seek for their selves. For this debate I will refer to the Bible as my textbook. I dislike math!! The only reason I"m not taking basic math is so I can later go to university to become a pastor. So I"m saying there is only one cookie for there is more proof and it"s more likely of there being only one cookie then there being an infinity amount of them. So there"s no Walmart, bakery or farmers dang field! There is one cookie that is just there, we don"t know why mostly because we can"t actually see it because it"s behind the darn brick wall! It"s just there, was always there and always will be there! And until the wall falls down we will never know. But I am not taking the risk because I know for a fact He exists and will try my best to obey my mother and follow the instructions that are laid out before me and you know what? My life is better for it! I"m sorry I"m starting to preach but my life has been based on God, I"ve seen so many people"s lives changed by God. And just being conscience right now mind processes, debates, dreaming, and reading, touching, hearing and seeing I know that couldn"t have been the result of some big bang of interstellar chunks of rock and genetic mutations, and selective breeding. I can"t wait to quote my book and I will in the next paragraph. The book called Icons of Evolution, by Jonathon Wells" first chapter involves the Oparin Haldane hypothesis which claims that lightning in the primitive atmosphere produced the first building blocks of life. The book says that Darwin speculated that life may have started in "some warm little pond" In the same way Oparin and Haldane hypothesized that chemicals in the atmosphere dissolved in the primordial seas to form a "Hot dilute soup" from which the first living cells emerged. The book goes on to say that many scientists became intrigued by this and the idea became accepted as "what science thinks" about the first steps in the origin of life. However it wasn"t until the early 50s when Stanley Miller an American Graduate student and his Ph.D. Advisor Harold Urey produced some of the chemical building blocks of life by sending an electric spark through a mixture of gasses they thought simulated the earth"s atmosphere at that time. This made scientific history and the experiment was put into all sorts of textbooks, newspapers, magazines and documentaries and is still featured to show that science has proved how the first building blocks of life were made even though for more than a decade most geochemists believe this experiment failed to simulate conditions on the early earth and so has little or nothing to do with the origins of life. The book goes on to tell us why. The Osparin Haldane scenario depends crucially on the earth"s atmospheric composition. Right now the earth"s atmosphere is about 21% oxygen. Although we think that an atmosphere rich in oxygen is essential to life, however the opposite is true for life"s building blocks and they could not have formed in such an atmosphere. We need oxygen because our cells produce energy through aerobic respiration. But our bodies must also make their own organic molecules otherwise we would not grow heal or reproduce. Respiration is the opposite of synthesis; Chemists call the process of respiration "oxidizing" and synthesis "reducing". Wells goes on to state that the same oxygen that is essential to aerobic respiration is often fatal to organic synthesis. Sure an electric spark in a closed container with swamp gas may make some pretty cool organic molecules. But even just a little oxygen and the spark will cause an explosion. Just like a closed container excludes oxygen and prevents swamp gas from exploding, compartments in our cells, all living cells, exclude oxygen from the process of organic synthesis. So before the origin of life the chemical building blocks of life could only have formed in a natural environment lacking oxygen. According to Oparin and Haldane that was the earth"s primitive atmosphere. At present the earth"s atmosphere is strongly oxidizing. Which is the opposite of what Oparin and Haldane postulated. Specifically they believed the atmosphere at primitive times to be a mixture of methane (hydrogen combined with nitrogen) water vapour (hydrogen combined with oxygen) and hydrogen gas. They believed lightning in such an environment could spontaneously produce the organic molecules needed by living cells. Urey assumed that the earth"s original atmosphere had the same composition as interstellar gas clouds. However the same year he published his findings a university of Chicago geochemist by the name of Harrison Brown noticed that the abundance of the rare gases neon, argon, krypton, and xenon were at least a million times lower than the cosmic average and concluded that the earth must have lost its original atmosphere (if it ever had one very soon after its formation. In the late 1960s Princeton University geochemist Heinrich Holland and Carnegie institution geophysicist Phillip Abelson agreed with Brown. They concluded that the earths primitive atmosphere was derived from gases released by the earths own volcanoes which release water vapour, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and trace amounts of hydrogen. Hydrogen being very light would have escaped earth"s gravity and floated off into space. But if the principal ingredient was water vapour the earth"s atmosphere must have also contained oxygen. Ultraviolet rays from sunlight cause dissociation of water vapour in the upper atmosphere. The process known as photo dissociation splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen being lighter floats off into space leaving oxygen behind on earth. Scientists believe the large amounts of oxygen in the atmosphere has been produced by photosynthesis, but photo dissociation would have produced small amounts of oxygen before photosynthesis therefore stopping cells from growing and photosynthesis would never have the chance to happen. Scientists have been debating this for years and the chance of volcanoes sparking building blocks of life is dimming. If you want to research more I suggest you do because obviously not all information is disclosed. Next evolution of man I skipped a lot of chapters because my fingers are sore and because I may need that information for other debates but I firmly beleive that these chapters disprove Darwin"s Tree of Life, Homology in vertebrate limbs, Haeckel"s Embryos, Archaeopteryx: the missing link, peppered moths, Darwin"s finches,, four winged fruit flies, fossil horses and directed evolution and here we are the chapter From Ape to Human: The Ultimate Icon. In Darwin"s book The Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex Darwin says that the origin of the human species was fundamentally similar to the origin of every other species. Human Beings, he argued are modified descendants of an ancestor they shared with other animals (most recently the apes) and their distinctive features due primarily (but not exclusively) to natural selection acting upon small variations. He had two controversial implications that stated Humans are nothing but animals, and they are not the preordained goal of a directed process. But in Darwin"s lifetime he had very limited amount of evidence to back such a claim up. There was no evidence for natural selection and the origin of variations was unknown. We"ve all seen the illustration that shows a knuckle walking ape going through a series of intermediate forms until in the form of the modern man. The illustration shows Darwin"s theory of how man evolved which is the ultimate icon of evolution. IN the 20th century the icon seemed to be finding evidence it lacked. Fossil discoveries appeared to be making links in the evolutionary chain leading to humans. Experiments on peppered moths seemed to provide the evidence needed to prove the natural selection http://www.timetoast.com... theory and geneticists thought they had found the raw materials for evolution and DNA mutations. However as this book proves, Kettlewell"s peppered moth experiments were flawed , the oscillating natural selection observed in Darwin"s Finches produce no long term evolution, and although beneficial DNA mutations occur at a biochemical level the well-known morphological mutations in four winged fruit flies produce cripples not raw materials for evolution. I will now switch to another book called Creation and Evolution by Dwight K. Nelson In chapter two "The Achilles Heel of the Java Man". So you"ve most likely heard of Java man, Peking Man and Nebraska man. These are reconstructed "prehuman humans" that people often see in museums, encyclopaedias and textbooks, they try to show that the evolutionist"s ideas of our origin are correct. In reality the pictures you see of Java man are based on just three parts. Three teeth, one leg bone, and part of a skull discovered by a Dutch army physician Eugene Dubois. In 1891 Dr. Dubois announced that he was off to find evidence of primitive man and travelled to the Solo River near the village of Trinal, Java, in Indonesia. He first discovered the skull cap along the bank of the river. About a year later he found two molar teeth and a human femur 15 meters away from the skull cap. In 1898 he found a premolar tooth that he believed to belong to his first find. Despite the finds being widely scattered Dubois made the conclusion that they belonged together. From 5 fragments he constructed what he later called Pithecanthropus Erectus (Greek, Erect ape-man) known as Java Man. Evolutionist"s have concluded that this represents an early predecessor of humankind that lived about half a million years ago. However before he died Dubois admitted that the Java Man closely resembled a Gibbon like ape. But the scientific community had already accepted that the find was one of the missing links they had been hoping for and ignored him. Another similar case was that of Nebraska Man. Based on only one tooth found by Harold Cook in 1922. Cook mailed the tooth to a famous paleontologist Henry Fairfield Osborn director of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. Osborn was fascinated by this find and compared it to all descriptions casts and drawings he could find and then consulted with three other scientists two of which were well known specialists on fossil primates. After much studying they announced that there was proof of an early man on the North American continent and published their find in the American Museum Novitates as follows. "It is hard to believe that a single water worn tooth "can signalize the arrival of the anthropoid primates in North America" We have been eagerly anticipating some discovery of this kind, but were not prepared for such convincing evidence"" This discovery named Hesperoppithecus haroldcookii (Harold Cooks Western ape) was illustrated in the London Daily Illustrated news and displayed a full paged spread reconstructing his whole shape, even the prominent brow ridges and broad shoulders from a single tooth! Sadly though two years later Nebraska Mans career came to an end. It turns out he was not a man not even an ape! The tooth turned out to be that of a fossil peccary. A wild animal related to the common pig. A man named Gish later wrote, "I believe this is a case in which a scientist made a man out of a pig and the pig made a monkey out of the scientist." The following are the most common examples of human evolution. Rampithecus: teeth and parts of a jaw that were found in India in 1932 were thought to be a fossil humanoid. However further studies now link these remains to chimps and baboons that are still living in Africa. Australopithecus: Fossils of this kind were discovered in South Africa by Dart in 1924 and Leakey in Tanzania in 1959. Further studies by British scientists Zuckerman and Oxnard, indicate that these animals did not resemble man or ape and could be categorized as a species of their own. (However if we saw one today we would not hesitate to call it an ape.) In 1973 Donald Johansson"s "Lucy" was found in 1973 in Ethiopia. With 40% of the remains the individual who was female was calculated to be a little over a meter tall and having one third of the normal brain capacity of the modern human. She was claimed to be a bipedal humanoid three and a half million years old. Remains of more individuals have also been found similar, however further studies have dimmed the hope of these to be truly Bipedal and therefore not the missing link. Homo Habilus: First discovered by Leakey"s son Richard called skull 1470 considered to be the intermediate between Australopithecus and Homo erectus (Java man). Recent discoveries on part of the skeleton has proved to be more apelike than thought before and there is concern that it may be a mosaic constructed from pieces of more than one species. Neanderthal Man: pictured to be a primitive and brute like man until it became evident that he was fully human the skeleton was deformed by disease. His cranial capacity was greater or equal to that of modern humans. Cro-Magnon Man: same as Neanderthal man cannot be used as evidence of our evolution from apes. Many other ancient human remains have been found but are either questionable, fragmentary or no significance for human evolution. Piltdown man had an important part on the evolutionary tree for a long time before it was discovered that someone had pieced together part fossil, part fresh bone, part ape, and part human remains to construct a skull. No convincing fossil evidence has been found. I can go on to give more but than what about my next debate topic? I believe the readers will have to decide for themselves. And this is not all I have. There is a whole bookshelf at home to disprove evolution. If my opponent so choses I will add it to this debate. I thank my opponent for his concern to my poor internet and now Im sure that my fingeres will be bruised for a while for I have now typed this twice! Once on the typewriter at home and now on the computer and my fingers are sore.
