    To bling and angel:

    There is a tremendous amount of scientific evidence that contradicts your beliefs then. We have been able to trace the evolutionary tree between apes and humans about 3 million years at this time. I think it's pretty clear that this is indeed how humans came about.

    An interesting side not to this: it appears that hominids began developing their intelligence as a direct result of being bipedal. I found this to be fascinating. The simple evolutionary step of bringing us upright allowed us to become intellectually what we are today.

    I saw a license plate frame that said, "Jesus is my airbag".

    I'm in the evolution camp.

    i dont see why people freak out when someone talks about evolution, like if you dont totally scoff at the science youre going to burn in for eternity

    I remember Howard Stern used to call Patrick Ewing the missing link.

    I believe in evolution by design....
    I don't believe in "creationism"...but then again what I don't and do believe is in itself the question.
    Angel and Bling believe in Jesus as their saviour and that they were created in God's image. They seem to figure it out for themselves. They don't need any tangible proof, hence belief.

    Another sidenote: It has been proven recently that the human brain is still evolving.

    The following is from newscientist.com...

    New variants of genes that control the development of our brains have swept through the world's population in the last several thousand years
    NEW variants of two genes that control the development of our brains have swept through much of the world's population during the past several thousand years. In short, our brains are still evolving, and the implications of that are far from clear.

    The evolution of a large complex brain has been the defining feature of the human lineage, although the size of our brain hasn't changed over the past 200,000 years. We don't yet know whether the new genetic adaptations discovered in our brains have any effect on brain size, or help to make us any more intelligent.

    What's more, not everyone has the new gene variants, potentially inflaming the already controversial debate about whether the brains of groups of people from different parts of the world function differently. "Whatever advantage these genes give, some groups have it and some don't. This has to be the worst nightmare of people ...

    The human brain evolving is obviously sign enough...will it evolve enough to realize that humans were indeed created. Maybe the devout zeolots are the enlightened ones we are all really afraid of? Maybe that's God's/Buddha,Allah etc plan...

    Ah! I see that you are of the Hebrews 11: 1 persuasion.
    you noticed!

    What do you think about the rest of the Book?

    Everlasting life....in what realm, heaven or earth, or maybe some eternal energy force that binds all living things. A collective conscious, if you may. I do believe in reincarnation of sorts...of personalities that is. I believe that personalities (souls if you well) are recycled.

    My problem with evolution is that the theory is still evolving.

    God told me exactly what He said and what happened as a result. Genesis 1.

    What are people really afraid of? Do you fear God, do you fear punishment, do you fear the government. What is with guilt that creates and incubates faith. If God is inside all of us, are we all not God's then. We all can control our world...just kill oneself and your world will cease to exist.

    So you don't have to love him or act a certain way? You just have to belive in him. That seems easy enough.

    Is living on earth an "intermission" for our transcendence...?
    AL: God has spoke to you, right?

    I believe the earth has purpose. It's not just a bus stop.
    god's original intention was for humans to never die and to live here cultivating it. there's been a road bump with the whole satan thing. But I don't belive he's altered his plans.

    The whole Satan thing....what is that supposed to mean. I don't believe in Satan...but I do believe in Jesus Christ.

    I think I told you before Med, if you really want God to show himself to you, He will.

    And if you were ever to consider reading even just one book of the Bible. I'd recommend the Gospel of John.
