it's funny that the only ones crying "evolution is wrong we didn't evolve from monkeys!" are the ones with the IQ closest to that of monkeys
pretty sure the entire thing was plagarised to keep people happy.I was under the impression that Genesis was either one big metaphor, or a piss-take of the pagan religions at the time.

This and the post before. True true true.Sorry, Whizz, but I'll put my theory here:
You know when you are very young, and the teachers tell the class they're going to plant beans in wet cotton and watch it grow?
That's kinda what God did.
The circunstances for the Big Bang to happen and start the Universe as we know it were so precise that there was a need for external preparation, or basically God's help.
And after the Earth as we know it appeared, several animals and plants appeared.
They evoluted until Adam and Eve, or as I like to call them, "the first Homo Sapiens".
So technically God created everything, but the "seven days" were the time he took to create the Big Bang.
You see that Jesus is actually God being tired of his more agressive form (ten plagues during Moses, worldwide flood during Noah...) and going on a more passionate form, someone that has the same feels as the humans, don't you?
Does Jesus mention anything about us not having evoluted from the same ancestor as monkeys?
No.
But Jesus taught a way of helping the one in need, of understanding the close one, of being helpful and caring about people, of compassion.
You're not doing that right now, so I believe your argument is invalid.
Whizz, try to see what are your mistakes.
Also, you're being one of the three things that piss me off.
They are:
Being a retarded moron.
Being a religious man that doesn't accept any other thing that isn't in his Holy Book.
Being an atheist that says that people who follow a religion are morons.
You are being the second one.
To state the truth, I don't believe anything about the Creation of the world except from the Bible. Had I never found places like Answers in Genesis which gave me evidence against evolution and for creation, I might have been believing in evolution right now. But I found evidence. I'm not just believing in Creation because the Bible says so (which most of you think I am, and therefore think I am stubborn and stupid), but because I found evidence. Not only evidence for Creation, but also against Evolution. I even gave you a page for evidence. If you do not read at least the thing I will tell you to read now, I will not answer one more question or statement. Read it, and then fight me.
http://www.answersingenesis.org/get-answers/topic/evolution
Go down to the interactive tab and select "Claimed Evidence for Evolution."
At least read that tab and all the subtabs in it.
Read whatever you want thereafter.
But at least read the tab or I won't answer anything more.
Oh, Lambert showed all those to me. I gave a refutation for every one of them. If the verses are what I think they are, those laws were created for the Israelites, because they had to be purified and holy in order to be God's chosen people, the people Jesus would be a descendant of.Not gonna bother reading through all the posts since i'm lazy like that, but i'll throw my opinion into the moshpit of opinions. I don't think god created the earth. I've never seen the scientific proof of God existing. Furthermore, I believe the Bible is a terrible moral compass. If anyone is interested I have links to an awesome website for all the Bible verses no one ever mentions.
