Random interesting factoid: The size of a cell's genome can be compared to the amount of programming stored in a computer, using the equation, 4 nucleotides = 8 bits = 1 byte. The simplest prokaryotic cell would correspond to a handheld calculator with about 200 kilobytes of stored programs; the E. coli bacterium would correspond to a handheld calculator with about 1.2 megabytes of stored programs. Among eukaryotic cells, counting the backup copy of the genome and the "silent" DNA, a yeast cell would correspond to a personal computer with 12 megabytes of program storage capacity; a human cell corresponds to a personal computer with 1.5 gigabytes of program storage capacity. And the human body would correspond to a computer network of a hundred trillion (10^14) or more such units.
I know I can't prove it to you... nor am I trying to prove it to you.H2Andy:Uncle Pug:H2Andy:can you give me a list of your top five items of evidence that Jesus lived, died, and rose again?Uncle Pug:Actually, I don't have a team. I'm with the formerly dead person, Jesus.
I've seen enough evidence to be convinced that He actually lived, died and rose again.
Only speaking for myself, mind you.
1. The fulfillment of Scripture concerning Him: overt prophecy, veiled prophecy and typological prophecy.
2. Personal fulfillment as a result of faith in Him: answered prayer, purposeful life and a peace that passes human understanding.
so that's your proof?
that's not proof. that's just your beliefs
again, you fail to give me any concrete proof of your position (btw, you can't)
I simply stated that I had seen enough evidence to convince me.
You asked me to give you my reasons for believing.
I was kind enough to answer your question.
You seem to think that I need to prove something to you.
Why do you want proof... Do you want to be a believer too?
Oddly, you seem very angry and unhappy that I believe what I do.

Uncle Pug:
hey, you said you had proof, i wanted to see what it was. when you showed it to me, i
simply said that wasn't proof.
you're the one who made the statement you had proof. i asked to see it. that's all.
(it turned out, as i said, to be no proof at all)
nah, i'm at home, drinking Single Malt, playing scales on my new-used Fender Telecaster Custom (it's a '73 replica) and chatting with my wife as she prepares Christmas presents.
life is good. come over and I'll pour you some whisky
knock yourself out with your beliefs. just don't call them science or say you have proof that the star of Bethlehem was real, cause then i have to call b.s.
i note, by the way, that you did not address the substance of my critique of your position, but simply re-directed the issue to MY personal feelings about YOU, which have nothing to do with the issue
just saying
