I do find it all interesting..... I've wondered about it all, too, throughout my life and thought it out. It has bothered me... I've felt confused in the distant past but have had those questions answered. There are a lot of interesting points made here. I don't deny the evidences. I am just convinced that what I previously stated I believe IS accurate. In fact, I KNOW it is. I'm not denying anything. But no one is going to prove anything on here. Not conclusively. There is no way to. Like I said before, I can see you guys points and reasons for seeing things as you do. You think there is more evidence supporting your claims, obviously. I just don't interpret them against the creation. This world was created or material was organized by a GOD. A GOD who is our creator - the creator quite liteally of our spirits. Quite literally He is our Father in Heaven. Jesus Christ is our Savior and the Father's only begotten son in the flesh. He came to earth a literal offspring of a GOD so had the same powers but lived his life as a human to feel what its like... he descended below the angels and was tempted just as we are. He suffered more than we comprehend to meet the laws of justice with the atonement and to break the bands of death which began with the fall. We are descendants of Father Adam in an earthly sense only. There is no reason scientifically that a GOD couldn't have done exactly what is recorded - as long as those recordings have come through history unchanged. (Obviously there have been some Biblical changes through the ages so some of the original writings were altered - I believe the King James version is most accurate). My point is that there is no contradiction to science and religion. The only thing I am truly refuting with evolutionists is the manner in which man came to be. I have no doubt there is life on other planets. It would make more sense to me that a man was brought here from elsewhere than that we came from bacteria... I do not believe a GOD had a need to evolve us in order to create us. He has control over the elements. It seems fantastical and miraculous to us...but we simply cannot comprehend such a wonderful prospect other than with spiritual eyes. We as humans are so much more than we realize.
