here we go. I'll simply state my choice & move along.. no point in arguing something that will go nowhere.

Only Creation.

I don't believe in evolution any form (stand-alone or as a designed method).

Creation, evolution to me is a theory, and it seems like a good one, but more and more people are proving it wrong. I think Creation is the best "theory" and I base my beliefs on Genisis.

There is a thread where this topic was broadly discussed in this forum. Look out for it.

The belief in Creation relieves people, so most people have it. Anyway the truth is truth.
U can't deny the truth.

What is the possibility of both? 7 days to God may be several thousands of years for us. Who's to say that it wasn't both? That's what I believe.




"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but how we REACT to what happens; not by what life brings to us, but by the ATTITUDE we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a CHAIN REACTION of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst... a spark that creates EXTRAORDINARY RESULTS."

In college you take a class where the right answer is life has to come from life it is impossibe for it to start from non life. THEN you take another where the right answer is that life crawled out of a primordial stew of non living rotting water. It was the same Professor. either creation or dropped here by aliens. Did anyone see Father Guido Sarducci do the skit where God evolved?

Evolution. There is scientific proof. It is not a theory.

I have absolutely no problem with the notion of God through force of divine will and command ordering Creation into existence and setting it in motion with a set of consistent rules, Natural Laws and phenomenon. Therefore I am perfectly comfortable with the notion that the mechanism of Evolution can be in perfect agreement with the fundamental view of Creation since God can chose whatever tools, processes and mechanisms he desires. He can just as easily create man from clay as he can create a genius from a donkey (hey don't look at me that way ), or an ape from an amoeba or a woman from a man's rib.

It is interesting to note that God did not chose to just "will" that his "word [become spontaneous and instant] flesh" when Jesus came into physical existence on Earth. Rather, for reasons known only to God he had Jesus suffer the humility of being born and grow as a normal human when it was clearly within God's power to directly and immediately manifest him through a simple action of will.

Absolutely descendants of a penal colony established by an ancient race of aliens who pushed their barbaric elements as far away as possible from their home planetary system. There is no reason to believe that creation or evolution ever began with the third rock from our sun.

Not funny...
But what is funny is: 'and ever since woman was created from a man's rib she has been continuing to rib him.'

Then there is no reason to believe that wisdom started with a random spasm of gas emitted from kbm8795 in the Creation vs. Evolution thread in the IM website in the billions of other websites on the 3rd planet from the sun within the Milkway Galaxy within the billions of other unknown galaxies within all of Creation.

the whole idea of aliens seeding our planet only pushes the mystery of life somewhere else. where did the aliens come from?

I respect all your opinions. But, The earth and everything in it is so complex and amazing to just have had a "big bang" and everything was here. Its like coming accross a mansion and saying "wow this just created itself." Every masterpiece has a master of design. If you really arent sure about the subject and want to know more email me and I'll try to answer your questions.
