yes, we know, we've all seen Big Bang Theory

fun fact: big bang hypothesis was made by creationist

"Everything" is a semantic convenience, not a physical possibility.

Kind of like when I shit?

He wasn't a "creationist." He was a Catholic priest who believed non-retarded Catholic things.
>>
>>16975884
Catholics are creationists and their canonical beliefs are retarded, though.

Incorrect.
>>
>>16975903
Then how many physical things are in "everything"?
>>
>>16975907
All of them.
>>
>>16975906
Believing in a creator god is literally the opening sentence of both of their main creeds, apostle's and nicene.

nigga what?

>>16975909
"How many" is a question requesting a quantitative response, not another vague ethereal qualifier that is just a synonym for the other vague ethereal qualifier you are trying to justify. The fact you will never possibly be able to demonstrably quantify "everything" proves the exact point you are trying to invalidate.
>>
>>16975918
>you don't know how many apples are on earth so it can't possibly be all of the apples
You're such a silly.
>>
>>16975920
You can't even decide for sure which fruits count as apples as a consequence of incompleteness, no matter the definition of apple you decide on, there are going to be some apple species that you will never be able to justify categorizing as apples or not.
>>
>>16975921
That is not what Godel's theorem says you silly. This particular "problem" is fully solved by monophyly.
>>
>>16975914
>>16975916
You're kinda stretching the definition of "creationism." Doncha think?
>>
>>16975923
>monophyly
No because at some point in the ancestry, the species will not fit any definition of apple just like the human's common ancestors you will reach point they can't be categorized as a mammal or eventually even an animal, then ultimately even a living thing at all.
>>
>>16975924
No, someone who believes in a creator god is the exact definition of a creationist and there creed definitely insists on a belief in a creator god..
>>
>>16975926
>at some point in the ancestry, the species will not fit any definition of apple
And those are not apples. Once we define a population of primordial apples, though, we can rigorously say that all of its descendants are, indeed, apples.
>>
>>16975928
Sure. It's not an argument worth having.
You're applying a definition that is not used in common parlance. "Creationism" typically implies a rejection of evolution.
>>
>>16975929
No you can't, just like you can't say that everything that descended from the first bacterium, like humans, are themselves bacterium.
>>
>>16975930
Evolution doesn't replace creationism, abiogenesis is the creation substitution.
>>
>>16975931
Without nitpicking on your misunderstanding of the evolutionary pathway there, the class of distinction you're attempting to show is paraphyly, not monophyly.
What we can say is that all descendants of the first eukaryotes are, themselves, eukaryotes.

A similar example would be fish. "Fish" is paraphyletic. We descend from fish but are not fish.
However, we are osteichthyes which includes the first bony fish and all of its descendants.
>>
>>16975937
IE, your example doesn't even actually apply to applies.
>>
>>16975943
Apples are monophyletic. Try again.
>>
>>16975945
No, apples aren't even an organism.
>>
>>16975948
"Apple" can describe both the fruit and the plant, you silly billy.
>>
>>16975953
And it also describes tomato fruits and tomato trees since apple trees and tomato plants share a common ancestor, which means apple describes all fruits since all fruit bearing trees share a common ancestor? Or is it the other way around are all apples actually tomatoes or some other fruit?
>>
>>16975961
The divergence between apples and tomatoes occurred before apples or tomatoes existed.
You're being very silly today, anon.
>>
>>16975907
>Then how many physical things are in "everything"?
I dunno. The exact number has no bearing on how much of a brainlet you are.
>>
>>16975877
The original name was Big Fart Theory
It was changed because the vatican wasn't happy with that
>>
>>16975852
Reality began in a colossal explosion.
>>
>>16975760
A singularity means that it doesn't fit the current models of the universe, it doesn't mean that there's nothing there.
>>
>>16976185
What does this imply?
