Well isn't God and all that stuff just a theory as well?? To me it is.

Like I said in the past no one is right and no one is wrong. Because No one really knows.. It has been debated for 100 years and will continue to until we die. It is all based on faith.. some have faith in God some have faith in evolution.. No one! is wrong.. it is all faith in what you believe in..

I'm pretty sure we'll have irrefutable proof of evolution long before anyone irrefutably proves god.

This reminds me of the Christian's disbelief when they found out the Earth wasn't the center of the universe.... "What? The whole universe isn't centered around us??" Only now it's.... "Are you trying to say that the universe's creation wasn't centered around God's people? What??" On an unrelated note.... The problem is, meblonde, that you CAN believe creationism and the big bang theory, if you choose. They are not mutually exclusive. That is, because the big bang theory does not explain how the elements got there in the first place, you can believe that God put them there. BUT- that doesn't mean the big bang theory isn't valid. Do you get what I mean?? You can believe both if that floats your boat. (Like the rhyming??)

Ahh I see. You seemed very against it in previous posts. I don't know what I believe about the origins of the universe. But frankly, I'm not sure that I care to know. !! 80

A note from a few pages ago: If God is three "people" then Christianity is Polytheistic, not Monotheistic... God in the bible says "worship no others above me" but if he's three parts, which part are we allowed to worship? Or do we need to make sure to worship all parts equally?? Would worshipping just one part be okay?

Yes! Chocolate is good..... God is not three persons, God is One. Worshipping for instance; sex, drugs and rock and roll or gambling, alcohol or sports more than life itself is.... not good. We in our own little worlds are all put together for some reason or another, so what's wrong with making the best of it? No one is perfect, right?

Guest told us God was three people! Guest is the local uber-Catholic who can read our minds.

Father
Son (Jesus)
Holy Ghost

So now what, mrsbuzski?

And there was this big bang, nobody know how the stuff got there to make a big bang but a big bang happened and things evolved out of slim in the water and became human beings.

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!

OH MY GOD YOU DIDN'T EVEN READ MY POST! I ANSWERED THIS RIGHT IN THE POST YOU REPLIED TO.

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

You have no idea what any of this means, do you? What does the big bang theory say? Can you just jot down a sentence or two explaining what it says, so I can better understand what you don't accept about it?

How about let's start with the difference between evolution and the big bang.

What is the difference?

Be nice Future. She already admitted that she thought God and the big bang went 'hand in hand.' That's perfectly reasonable! And the big bang really is just a theory, just like God. Chocolate burritos for anyone?? I'm up for it.....

The word adam in this part of genesis is not a meaningless english name. It, adam, in this part of genesis, literally means "man", not telling of number or specific skin color. And eve, literally, means, blah blah blah, it doesn't really matter. So when it talks about this in this creation of "man", or adam, there were obviously more than two of a certain race correct? These words are not denoting only two specific people of a certain race. All of the races, or the races that were apparently needed to make the races that we have now, were obviously present during this time of beginning and creation, otherwise it wouldn't make any sense would it? Funny huh? Adam just means "man", god created man, not denoting specific number or race. Another funny thing is the mistranslation that god created man in his image, the correct way of looking at this verse is, man is in the process of being created in god's image, on his way to being in god's image, or god is "creating" man in his image, obviously not already in god's image, because god is not a poo poo face. However, who cares, a rather moot point. What a rather absurd thing to talk about, because when you use common sense to look at this race "problem" if you will, we have all of these different races today, now, what would be the only logical things that could've happened in man's creation that would make sense, all of the races were either present at the beginning of man's insanity, or the races that were needed to have the result of today's mixture were present.

No! Lol. It'd be chunky chocolate ice-cream with chocolate syrup wrapped in a round version of an ice-cream cone. With nuts!

(we have something called a coco-taco as an ice-cream dessert in the dining hall, so a coco-burrito isn't a stretch)
