Religious question Adam and Eve

[betedgeonly]

As someone (me) who also believes in God, Creation (not the Genesis version, though) and Jesus, I invite you to consider the notion that all men are loved by God and all will be forgiven of any errors.

So regardless of how one perceives the creation of the universe, you're going to be okay in God's eyes. All errors (aka - sins) are forgiven.

Do you know alot about your parents', wife, close friends? How is this possible? Maybe it is because you got to know them through talking and spending time with them. Ever give GOD time to get to know him?

the Adam/Eve point is moot, its a given that anything that 'can be perceived' as contradicting can either be reinterpreted or just said that 'we can't understand what 'insert god' was trying to say, we are too stupid to understand but we may when we go to 'insert place where the good guys go' ) or 'that is not suposed to be literal but THIS other stuff is '

you want science to go after EVERY 'creationist belief or theory' ? :lolBIG: (very good tactique that would be......distract them with all sort of nutty ideas .....budget on scientific research is very limited...therefore no time left to do actual research)

time might be infinite but so is the number of crazy beliefs that any of the gazillion religions of the World can come up with

I normally just read this forum to see what opinions come up from the US (as I am not an US citizen/resident) and its clear that scientific/critical thinking is on a total downfall over there

anyone believes they can 'destroy' any scientific idea with or without having a clue as to what they are trying to attack, the guy that sells newspapers knows that astronomy is bs, the guy that flips burgers jokes that the explanation of everything is 'an accident'

'its all the same, its faith, you can't prove anything, its all bs' that SUPOSEDLY destroys any rational thing that science can bring

the rest of you Americans that are not totally mentally impaired better do something quick as I have no desire to learn a different language such as Chinese or defend myself against some sort of modern age Crusade.....

btw I am going to bed soon (to have nightmares after this thread of course)

If these scienctists are so smart then why in the hell can't they evolve a way for FUNDING THEMSELVES instead of asking christian believer's for money? But I am sure in your country everything is just fine and you don't need the U.S. for any help.....you should probally goto bed now friend....sweet dreams...

Your amazement might temper a bit if you were to take a deep breath and realize that likely a majority of Americans do not on Dec 25 "celebrate the birth of Jesus".

Even a fair share of folks who profess to be Christians don't use the day for that purpose.

I sure don't and I've been an adherent to the core Christian gospel for all my life.

I would have to bet that alot more people celebrae it here in america than don't. I know quite a few athiests that even choose to celebrate x-mas.

Why are monkey's still not evolving into human's anymore?

"Monkeys" did not evolve into humans

Very (very) earliest life that walked on two legs clearly evolved in a couple directions over hundreds of thousands of years. One became the simians we know today and the other became the human beings we know today.

E, my relationship with God is just fine thanks. Honed over the past 40 years and in a constant state of....well - evolution as I continue to seek new understanding and enlightenment

Not surprising. A lot of atheists believe that Christ existed and view him as one of many Master Teachers from that time period.

What no atheist believes is that Christ is God incarnate.

And then the fossils for all these hundreds of thousands of years worth of "ape-men"
just magically went *poof*.

Partly this, and, more importantly, it's a nice family party. No-one in my family believes in God, still we like to celebrate Christmas, the children for the presents, the adults for the family values. Our celebrating Christmas does not in the least give any indication that we believe the Christian religion to be correct.
Many atheists (or agnostics) even go to church on Christmas for 'atmosphere' but I reject that as I think it's improper. Mass should be only for the truly religious.

Zit, enough has been found to give us an idea what happened. I don't know how good you are at biology but it's actually not really surprising that most of the biological material from hundreds of thousands of years ago has disappeared by now. Tissue, even bone tissue, decays except for very rare circumstances, don't tell me this is news for you.

 

[Preussen]

Preussen, I actually lean evolution, but it's an imperfect scientific theory, that's the point I'm making. Just like a lot of other imperfect scientific theories.

...

Okay, this I can perfectly agree with, assuming that we understand the term "imperfect" in the same way.

I still prefer an imperfect scientific theory over a fairy tale.

Adam and Eve did not have sex with each other to give birth to children. They had children just like the Blessed Virgin Mary did specifically, the Holy Ghost got involved. That was how baby Jesus was born. Parthenogenesis mysteries and the mystique of the Holy Ghost. This is my take on this here matter.
