The next question I would pose to an evolutionist/naturalist is whether he considers himself moral. If you uphold yourself to any moral purpose whatsoever, you fail to live up to your worldview. As an evolutionist, you should act purely out of utility. Survival is your main goal. Of course none of this makes human experience intelligible given the fact that no one acts this way.
If you disagree with this theory, I ask you, do you steal from the blind? Survival of the fittest right? Would you steal from the blind if it were legal? Many atheists, evolutionists, naturalists, etc wouldn't. Because they are good moral people. They, however, don't live up to the obligation of the way they see the world. You aren't living up to your duty of primal survival. You are actually capable of things totally independent of natural selection, like love...even for those who have no impact on your life. Every dollar you give to the homeless, and every hour you volunteer, you do not out of utility, but out of love. Your goodness causes you to fail to live up to your worldview.
The law of thermodynamics and conservation of energy says that matter cannot be created NOR destroyed, yet matter exists. So, according to scientific law, it is impossible for anything to exist, yet it DOES exist. That is proof that God, who has power over scientific law made it. God created the matter from NOTHING as the bible says. When the bible was written, they knew nothing about the law of thermodynamics or conservation of energy, yet God DID.
But according to scientific law, the matter cannot be created nor destroyed so it's illogical to believe that it exists on it's own because according to science, it is IMPOSSIBLE for it to exist.
Where did it come from?
prosocial behaviours can easily be explained within the framework of evolution lol, there's no contradiction here
@ the bolded parts: such a ridiculous non-sequitur, can't imagine how low IQ you have to be to think this argument is compelling
