The Trinity refers to three distinct supernatural persons with identical attributes and different functions in the reconciliation of mankind: God the Father planned it; Jesus Christ the Son executed it [did the work]; God the Holy Spirit empowers it. Human beings are born dichotomous [body and soul]; at the second birth [regeneration by faith in Christ] ...[text shortened]... trichotomous being] which enables the believer to be taught absolute truth from the Word of God.
So when we read of the vine and the wine skins and many other subjects, what was read and studied the first time around, will mean something totally different the next time.
It is true too with the comprehention of "we are in the image of God" .
The concepts of God's image can be endless.
In this, that we are also a trinity, we experience it every day, and may never know it. As you are a 'Grampy' , Bob. You will see it within yourself. Our heart is like a child within. And when you play with your grandchildren, the child within comes out. When you are about doing business, taxes maybe or arguing a ticket with a cop, the part of you which has authority will make itself present. This is our soul. And finally the middle ground, our conscience, this is our mind.
Jesus unofficailly teaches us that we are a trinity when he states: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your mind." Matt 22:37

Yes, of course, photosynthesis is a process designed by God in plants to produce food and oxygen needed for the various life forms He was to create.

Plants thrive on sunlight, and all other forms of life depend on plants one way or the other,
so the second law of thermodynamics doesn't in fact apply to our little world. Case closed.
You're just overdoing it, dude. You're just overdoing it. 🙄

grows and flowers bloom. It's amazing what's going on. You can put that book down now.
I'm sure there's a biology book in the library you can borrow.
An observation: You're a poster boy for: "Creationism, because it's a lot easier to read one
book, than a bunch of hard ones".

"A scientific law is a statement based on repeated experimental observations that describes
some aspect of the world. A scientific law always applies under the same conditions, and
implies that there is a causal relationship involving its elements"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_law
Whereas a Theory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory is an explanation of facts and phenomena
INCLUDING Laws.
Hinds of course knows this as he has been told too many times to count.
But he likes lying about it because he has a totally unsupportable and stupid position.
Looks at video... Yep strawman attack, theistic crap as always.

For the record, having looked at the video, I'd just like to add that new genetic information
has been observed, contrary to what's being claimed in the video:

Originally posted by RJHindsI don't know how I missed this response of yours, but you're wrong, as usual.
They say there was a new gene not new genetic information.
First of all, a new gene is new genetic information. In this case, it also happens to be
added information through a series of mutations, one of which is gene duplication:
The Cit+ trait originated in one clade by a tandem duplication that captured an aerobically-expressed promoter for the expression of a previously silent citrate transporter.From: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3461117/
That's new genetic information added to the DNA, observed by scientists.
