    God created man, and man created the lie. That is what man does best. God is not the author of confusion.

    If the story of the flood which is found in Genesis is a fable, can you explain why they are finding pillar lava at the 16,000 foot level of Mount Ararat? Pillar lava can only form when the vent is underwater. There is evidence of the flood, where is the trans-species evidence for evolution?

    Actually scripture teaches that Gods days are longer than our days. One day in Mans time is 24 hours, yet in Gods time one day is 1000 years.

    So, you believe in hell, and feel it is probable that Gandhi and the Dalai Lama probably will end up there. If God would send them to hell, I would volunteer to go there myself, I'd rather share hell with them.
    My God does not contradict any of my experiences or evidence, is never wrong, and doesn't take sides.
    If I have to believe that 'died for me' dogma in order to be 'in' with God, then I am not 'in' with God. Wouldn't want to be anyway, were that the case.
    I don't know God isn't like that, I just find the likelihood of it very slim, and would bet it all that if there is a God, he's not down with that.

    Again, you're like a broken record.. you keep saying the same thing over and over again... Show me some evidence...

    Preaching at me the way you are is not going to get me to convert, it's pointless... If you want me to convert, show me some hard evidence that what you're saying is true, but I don't believe a word of it.

    You say there is evidence... who are you that I should believe what you are saying? How about backing up what you say with some sources so we can verify what you're claming, as well as getting a second opinion, etc..

    As for evolution, I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that, I'm no expert on evolution, but at the same time, I don't claim to be one, unlike you, preaching on at how god exists and that we should follow what YOU tell us to - that's rubbish, and the sooner you wake up and smell the bullshit, the better.

    God is too. Liar. :p

    Lemme rebuke you with some more scripture:

    You forsake the lord when you deny God's hand in anything. Beware of God.

    God exists outside of time. He "lives" in no-time zone. How is it that God reached in and created time on earth? THere had to be a point in which God created the earth. He cant live outside of time yet create the earth. it had to alwasy have been there or God does not live outside of time.

    There is a lot of ignorance on the part of Christians, and there is a lot of ignorance on the part of non-Christians, but there are many well-informed, intelligent people on both sides who are in posession of all the facts and yet still come to opposite conclusions.

    You make an interesting point. I love this kind of theory!

    You are, quite correctly, thinking of God as being outside of time. But your mistake is to then assume that he lives in some kind of parallel time running alongside our time, and he changes our universe in our time. God does not change our universe in our time. All the changes he ever made have already been made, and they were not made in our past, but outside of time.

    There are only two possibilities of the kind of time God lives in:

    a) God is timeless. Everything he does effectively happens all at once as there is no before and after, so this universe "always existed" to God because nothing ever changes to God. God therefore created Earth like an equation creates a solution; ie, our universe is the natural product of God without any reason, any decision process, or any sequence of events.

    or

    b) God does exist in a kind of time, but it is his own time (perhaps he created it himself). This allows him to do things in order. Creating our universe would therefore be an event for him. But do not mistake the time in our universe for his time; his time cannot have anything to do with our time. To God, every point in space and time in our universe all exists at once. He may modify our universe in his own time (as detailed in Genesis) but we are not aware of these changes, since we live in the very last version of the universe after all the changes have been made. God cannot ever change the universe again because if he did we would not be here, and we are here. In this respect, we exist at the very end of God's time (although God is probably infinite).

    I live in the UK, and I once met a Christian who didn't believe in natural evolution. So I guess it's not just Americans. Although there do seem to be a lot of Americans on here with that viewpoint, so it's probably a lot more common over there.

    Ive seen statistics somewhere showing that only about 35% of Christians in America believe in evolution. In European countries the numbers of Christians believing in evolution were all over 50%, usually hanging around 60 or 70%, up to the mid 80's.

    Just to clarify, we are talking about the theory that humans evolved from a different species. Not evolution itself.

    If you didn't believe in evolution then you would think that black people and white people were a different species!

    Wouldn't that be at least a part of evolutionary theory? What do you mean by "evolution itself" versus the "the theory that humans evolved from a different species"? Are you just drawing the micro vs macro differentiation?

    No, they can intermingle and produce viable offspring. That would make them the same species.
