Do you consider yourself to be an intellectual person and why so?

Is it possible to be intellectual and forget about the
one that gave you the potential to be one? Wouldn't it
be hard to be intellectual without the brain God gave you?
How many could reproduce something as intricate as a
functioning brain?

Evolutionists, do you believe you came from a monkey?

The European-born scientist Albert Einstein, though reputed to be an atheist, confessed: "It is enough for me to . . . reflect upon the marvelous structure of the universe, which we can dimly perceive, and to try humbly to comprehend even an infinitesimal part of the intelligence manifest in nature." The American scientist and Nobel prize winner Arthur Holly Compton said: "An orderly unfolding universe testifies to the truth of the most majestic statement ever uttered—'In the beginning God.'" He was quoting the opening words of the Bible.

A computer is really a very poor substitute for the human brain. It is true that computers can store and process much information but can they reason? Can they make choices based on past experience and logic that takes many variables into consideration? Do they have free will? No.

Furthermore, sure the human brain may only use 10 percent of its capacity. Have you ever wondered why the rest of it is there? Could it be that it is "extra storage" that you may need if you were to live as long as God originally intended mankind to live? I have a petty big hard drive on my computer too. Does the fact that I haven't filled it up yet mean my hard drive is useless or inefficient? No of course not, it just means I have so much more capacity for filling it up. Same with the human brain.

If indeed evolution is a "fact" as some people want to claim, WHY would mankind have a brain with 90 percent of it going unused? Wouldn't evolution for the purpose of economy simply elimnate the unneeded portion? Isn't that what is claimed by evolution that unnecessary things get eliminated out of the genome?

So since the brain HAS such a large capacity, which goes unused, how did it get there? WHY did it get there? If it is truly unused and unneeded, then what is the reason that "natural selection" would even select something so useless?

Computers yes, were invented by man, but this poor substitute was just a copy of something far more intricate and useful. If computers were invented by man, who invented the original? How does it make any sort of logical sense that intelligence is needed to design a copy, but no intelligence is needed for the original?

To me that requires a leap of faith far BIGGER than the concept of intelligent design.

How wrong you are!!

Science has shown atheists have a higher intelligence than people with a strong religious faith. The difference is 5.8 points according to findings in developmental psychology!!!

More members of the "intellectual elite" considered themselves atheists than the national average.

Only 7 percent of members of the American National Academy of Sciences believed in God. Whilst only 3.3 percent believed in God in the UK’s Royal Society.

Several Gallup poll studies of the general population have shown that those with higher IQ’s tend not to believe in God."

Evolution in action with Christians getting left behind like the monkeys and apes before them!!!

It's impossible to remember something that doesn't exists. You are working on one of the most intricate minds there are, it's call COMPUTER and God didn't "created" it, was man, yet it's so easy to work that even a small brain like yours can do it. Technology, my dear, the one you use everyday, on every aspect of your life, was "created" by the very same scientists you and your religious freaks despise.

Yes, I honestly do consider myself an intellectual person. I won't brag or bore you with the details.

Is it possible to be intellectual and gullible enough to believe in God when the concept of a god is so obvioulsy the bait on the hook of a totalitarian regime that is fishing for fighters and income ?

Edit :
Evolutionist ?
That is a strange word.
I have only ever seen it used by Amero-Christos.
