Atheists: Do you use magnetic resonance imaging?

Took you awhile to find a good christian invention eh?

We're not the ones who are opposed to scientific advances, brotha.

Added: I clicked the link, but I already knew what it was a link to.

There are several flaws with that argument: 1- First off, I have no idea how reliable this source is. I only have your word that these scientists are creationists. For all I know, you've just come up with a bunch of names. I will assume that your list is legitimate, but it would be nice if you could explain the source of this information. 2- I also don't have any information as to to what extent they believe it, if they are current or former believers, the legitimacy of their qualifications, or lots of other information. There are plenty of dodgy universities that sell dubious qualifications, and it's possible that a lot of these "creationist" scientists have very different interpretations of creationism- some might believe that the story of Genesis is literal and true, whereas others might just be generally religious and view it as more metaphorical. Again, more information would be good. But let's get on to the actual argument, even if they were all creationists who believe the bible was literally true: 3- This argument is nothing more than an appeal to authority. The fact that a bunch of scientists happen to believe in creationism says absolutely nothing about the validity of creationism or anything else. The fact that you are a scientist does not exempt you from having to show evidence that your beliefs are correct. 4- I note that very few of these scientists specialise in anything even remotely related to evolutionary biology. I see several engineers, chemists, physicists, and the like. None of the biologists are specifically linked to evolutionary biology either. Science is a highly specialised field, and most scientists do not know a great deal more about other fields than a layperson would. Even at the undergraduate level, I knew very little about the work my fellow students were doing, just as they didn't know a great deal about mine. 5- Although you dismiss it as a "schoolyard rebuttal", the fact that the vast majority of scientists are not creationists is not something you can ignore. Given that there are tens of thousands of scientists in the world, getting a minority of them that have a certain viewpoint is not difficult- it doesn't dismiss the majority that believes otherwise. So even if the argument "scientists agree with me" had any weight, that argument is not even one you can employ.

Not personally.

Do YOU use the names for the months and days of the week? How about software or computers developed by a company founded by an atheist?

The religious beliefs (or lack thereof) of the inventor of a device has nothing to do with the usefulness of that device.

Fire was invented long before organized religion, but that doesn't mean that only animists are allowed to use it.

Of course....

Just because Atheists don't think the same thing as Creationists doesn't mean that they won't use things invented by them!

They're two entirely different things.

Did you know Tesla got the ideas for ac current from Revelations?

There are a host of others too.

Imagine that.

If I ever needed one, sure. I don't run around getting medical test everyday.

As to his being a creationist, well, nobody's perfect. He couldn't be right all the time.

Of course I would.

Why are you working on a operating system designed by an atheist? (the cool thing is I don't eve have to know which one it is because they ALL are.)

Implying that you would not utilize something invented by an atheist: which I seriously doubt.

Unlike creationists, we do not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
