Comment God is all powerful (Score 1) 848

I don't understand why Christians resort to such histrionics to combat science on science's terms.

Want a retort to evolution? Here's one: God created it. He created earth, made it look 4+ billion years old, added fossils, plate tectonics, bosons, whatever you want. Why does this discussion always require God to start the game at the beginning? He started in the middle. He's all powerful.

Now, this "answer" doesn't advance our understanding of the world any. But maybe it will give us some peace and quiet.

Remember, these are the same companies that will probably never find a cure for anything because there is no money in a cure. If they can research how to cure your cancer for a one time charge, or keep you alive for an extra 10-20 years on expensive treatments which do you think they will pick?

I disagree. If Big Bad Parmacorp A bilks people with a non-cure treatment spread over 20 years, then Big Bad Pharmacorp B is incented to trump that "treatment" with a cure. Competition should take care of this.
