It seems that the high majority of religious people think that evolution craps on their religion.
Creation and Evolution are not opposite to each other.
Religion is a man-made system and there are many religions. Evolution is mutually exclusive to some and not to others.
Evolution
is mutually exclusive to the Bible. I've studied both. I know.
You can still believe in God and accept evolution, evolution does not even try to explain how everything began.
Actually, it depends on which "form" of evolution you are talking about.
The myth of evolution has itself evolved as new scientific evidence emerged disproving previous aspects of it.
For example, the lack of transitional forms gave birth to punctuated equilibria, which is nothing more than an attempt to explain why transitional forms do not exist, and a very silly explanation at that.
Accepting evolution (which at least is supported by science and quantifiable data)
Actually, it is not.
Just like the so-called science that supports the safety of mercury amalgams or the so-called science that supports global warming, evolution is based on junk-science.
I love science and I am appalled at what evolution has done to the integrity of science. Here is a great example:
Junk Science: Global Warming Myth BustedOr are you going to tell me you think the earth is a few thousand years old and we descend from Adam and Eve?
The Bible
does not say the Earth is a few thousand years old.
If you're an evolutionist, you also believe that all humans descended from a common ancestor. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
And also if you are religious and try to explain by reason and facts the existence of god then you have already forfeited your faith. As the philosopher Kierkegaard once said, you have to take a leap of faith on the Christian paradoxes.
All relationships begin with faith. You may be surprised to find that the Bible does not ask that you simply believe it or simply believe God without evidence. In fact, the Bible provides evidence by many means, including foretelling the future and gematria.
I don't mean to offend you but you clearly know nothing more about the Bible than college textbooks have told you or the corrupt and lying Discovery Channel has taught you.
I highly recommend that you study the Bible for yourself and discover that—for the true intellect—it is the most amazing, compelling, and revealing book that you will experience.
