Oxygen has many of the same properties of God, you cant smell it, touch it, taste it or hear it, but does that mean it is not there? Of course it is there. The only way that you can know that there is no God is to know everything about everything, which would *make* you omnipotent, and if you know everything, then that would make you God.
Lianardo Da'Vinci once was quoted as saying, "In the absense of evidence of any other sort [the Bible and general nature] my thumb alone would convince me of a creator.
Macro Evolution
Micro Evolution
Look these terms up in your dictionary, one is how plants and animals change to fit a situation or circumstance, and one is how a rock evolves into a rose.

Actualy neither term is in any dictionary, They are both PAIRS of words,,,Not single words,
And neither term has any validity outside of religious circles,
Further NOTHING is "how a rock evolves into a rose", Rocks are not living populations , and so cannot evolve PERIOD.
I have touched, tasted, and heard oxygen. You FAIL. In addition it does not require omniscience (you said omnipotence, but that's just because your retarded, buy a dictionary) to reach the conclusion that there is no God. One of the attributes ascribed to god is omnipresence. Therefore instead of complete knowledge of the universe or everything about everything, one only needs knowledge of an area smaller then a micron by a micron. Because God is omnipresent lack of his presence in the smallest definable area is lack of his presence everywhere.
Dude I work with oxyfuel cutting torches. I smell, breathe, touch and taste oxygen all the time. I try to avoid the second and fourth with the acetylene though.
Also, unlike your god, which hasn't been of any use in slagging pieces of iron, oxygen's common in many chemical reactions.
If you're gonna tell me your god's as real as oxygen, start by finding me a tank of it, and figuring out what its good for.
Finally, the only place things magically instantly evolve into other things.... ARE KIDS SHOWS. This is why they're shown on fox of all things, right around the time some of us go to bed (hey if you ever needed a good reason to turn the damn thing off after a sleepless night...) Try sleeping in sometime; Pokemon and the like aren't science.
So DON'T try stuffing a puppy into small colored balls half its size. Its animal cruelty. You know; IMMORAL.
Macroevolution: the origin of taxonomic groups higher then the species level (new genera, families, orders, phylum)
First entry on Google for Macroevolution.
Move you hand. Congratulations, you touched oxygen.
And about the smelling and tasting, who says you can't? You are used to the taste and smell of oxygen around you and therefore you don't notice it. Get your hands on some pure oxygen and we'll talk again.
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
Da'Vinci was a painter, so was Van Gogh; artists are not generally the most sane people.
How can someone with the name 'Wizard' in their name be so clueless?
That's quite an analogy you have there. Here's an experiment for you based on it: For 2 weeks, don't read the bible, say prayers, attend church, or even think about god.
Now try going without oxygen for 2 weeks...
You'd have been better off choosing Nitrogen, Mr. Wizard. It's the 7th element.
And, yes, you can touch it.
You can touch oxygen, and smell it ( that smell after an electrical arc, thats ozone.), taste it ( again with the ozone ) and and hear it.
I'm starting to think that you know nothing about chemistry at all.
Well, we can touch it. You're touching oxygen right now! And when it's in pure form you can definitely see it (I have before; it's pretty cool). It's a light gray gas. There's also actual evidence for oxygen.
And yeah yeah, we can't know for sure that there is no god... But we also can't know for sure that there are no unicorns in the core of Jupiter! Who's gonna disprove that, huh? Have you been to the core of Jupiter? No, you haven't. So you must believe in the unicorns in the core of Jupiter, by your own logic.
The sad thing is, someone has used that analogy with me before, and was roundly beaten with cluebat. I informed him that, in very dense quantities, you can even see oxygen, let alone smelling, touching, tasting or reacting it.
'and one is how a rock evolves into a rose.'
Wow, just wow, the quintessence of ignorance.
"Lianardo Da'Vinci once was quoted as saying, "In the absense of evidence of any other sort [the Bible and general nature] my thumb alone would convince me of a creator"
and now we have evolution. thanks for playing
Oxygen, in addition, has a tendancy to be hazardous when in too high a concentration, much like faith, as this fellow demonstrates.
You know, why did explosions, the breeze, and fucking LIQUID OXYGEN come to mind when I read this?
Probably because this guy is a twat.
Oh, and then there's of course Ozone...
Who the fuck was Lianardo Da'Vinci?
But to answer your stupid question. I am breathing, therefore there must be oxygen. This is in no way proof of a Creator, dumbwit.
More world class crap analogies from fundiedom.
Oxygen has many of the same properties of God,
1) We can prove its existence, and 2) . . . uh, . . . *ahem* Ill get back to you later.
no one ever claimed a rock would turn into a rose.
so thats a horrible arguing point.
logic is not your strong point.
Oxygen can be proven in laboratories, God, can not. I don't KNOW that there is no gods, but I know that there is no evidence for the existence of any of them.
It's very disrespectful to misspell someone's name, stupid. Leonardo da Vinci lived almost five hundred years ago, three-hundred and fifty years before Darwin published his theory.
Micro evolution is how plants and animals (and fungi and bacteria) adapt to fit a changing environment.
Macro evolution is simply micro evolution plus time, what horses and donkeys are about to do; they can still produce viable offspring together, but they are almost always infertile. Give it another ten thousand years and they will probably not even be able to produce mules and hinnies.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
