My bible refers to God as plural too!, and as humans as "humankind" and such, instead of "Mankind" And it's a catholic bible too!

God is plural in that God is three persons. Father. Son. Holy Spirit.

But I thought Genesis was written before Jesus was born, so was it just the holy spirit and God kicking around then?

"But I thought Genesis was written before Jesus was born, so was it just the holy spirit and God kicking around then? " Before Abraham was, I am - Jesus Christ "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us." "He is before all things, and in him all things hold together"

So? blinks A bunch of Christians still freaked out about her books and said that the "poor child actors" would be going to hell for "enchanting" and saying spells. Not that those women care, but ALL of the spells in HP are fictional.

Oops. Wow, Rodge. I really seem to be ruining your life. First you discover that animals can't talk, then you find out that Santa etc. aren't real, NOW my levitation spell has gotten you trapped on the ceiling. I'm a bad person.

The Big Bang doesn't address how the first stuff got there. Don't listen to fundies who lie about big bang and evolution.

Here is an example of a lie:

Fundie: How can man evolve from apes if apes are still here?
Rational person: Because man didn't evolve from apes, and nobody ever said we did.

Evolution shows man AND apes evolved from a COMMON ANCESTOR.

Fundie: How can the big bang be right when we can't know where the stuff that made up our universe came from?
Rational person: The Big Bang Theory DOES NOT SAY where the original stuff came from. It attempts to explain why our universe is expanding.

Fundie: I don't believe we came from slime.
Rational person: We didn't come from slime. We evolved from the first living organism. We all share similar genes, plants, animals (including humans) microbes, all of it.

The fact that we evolved, everything, plants, animals, microbes, etc., is NOT in question. The theory in question is HOW did it happen, natural selection? Or some other mechanism?

Aww but remember there is a missing link to the big bang NOBODY can prove or answer.. How did the elements get there to make it??
I don't know abouit you but in my life "so far" I have never seen things just pop out of nowhere. So the big bang is just as stilly to me as what God is to you!

Ok.. once again.. Big ban theory: In physical cosmology, the Big Bang is the scientific theory of how the universe emerged from a tremendously dense and hot state about 13.7 billion years ago. The Big Bang theory is based on the observed Hubble's law redshift of distant galaxies that when taken together with the cosmological principle indicate that space is expanding according to the Friedmann-Lemaitre model of general relativity. Extrapolated into the past, these observations show that the universe has expanded from a state in which all the matter and energy in the universe was at an immense temperature and density. Physicists do not widely agree on what happened before this, although general relativity predicts a gravitational singularity. The term Big Bang is used both in a narrow sense to refer to a point in time when the observed expansion of the universe (Hubble's law) began - calculated to be 13.7 billion (1.37 × 1010) years ago (±2%) - and in a more general sense to refer to the prevailing cosmological paradigm explaining the origin and expansion of the universe, as well as the composition of primordial matter through nucleosynthesis as predicted by the Alpher-Bethe-Gamow theory. From this model, George Gamow in 1948 was able to predict, at least qualitatively, the existence of cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). The CMB was discovered in the 1960s and further validated the Big Bang theory over its chief rival, the steady state theory. source

key word here is theory! And still does not explain how the matter got there to cause it!

That being said.... Doesn't the bible say something in there somewhere about incest being a slight against God? If Adam and Eve WERE the first humans, we ALL would have been products of incest. puke
