There really is no right or wrong answer, its all a matter of opinion. IMO, chickens evolved from reptiles, which means niether the chicken, or the egg came first.
You mean the bible? A book?
Has everyone played the game telephone? As the word goes around it gets so distorted that the end word is completely different then the word you started with. The bible is the same way IMO, way back when it actually had to be copied by hand... as in writing it out...
You are saying that you believe it, not that it actually happened. I can say I believe anything, it doesn't necessarily mean it happened. There is no proof, besides the bible, that Jesus actually hung on a cross and rose into heaven. I don't mean to say that theres absuloutly no chance that it...
To also put it bluntly, Zinnia and I aren't bad people. (Well, I can only speak for myself as far as that goes, but I don't think Zinnia is a murder or anything ) Are you saying that we will be sent to Hell, simply for not believing? Or believing something else? That could be considered...
CBL, there is no reason to get banned if you have having a reasonable debate like HCCLK, Zinnia and I were having. Just try not to get too worked up about it, keep your cool. Its best not to use caps because it does seem like your shouting, bolding works better to emphasizing a word.
I have been to church before, my parents are believers. All I ever felt was... uncomfortable for lack of a better word. I had a hard time reciting all the right words when they didn't really mean anything to me. I guess when I die I'll get a one-way ticket to Hell. If you like, I'll send you a...
Humans didn't evolve from "modern" day apes. We evolved from pre-historic ape-like creatures, like Neanderthals. Somewhere along the line, a few million years ago, humans and monkey-ape type creatures split and evolved differently. Creating the modern day gorilla/ape and humans.
Even if they couldn't assemble an actual dinosaur (and I believe they can, but just for arguments sake,) they can test the bones to find out how old they are. When they find the bones, and dig them up, they sometimes do find an intact skeleton. Which shows them exactly where the bones go and how...
Evolution takes millions of years, in reality, one human life-time is very short compared to the life of the earth. You can't expect you wake up one morning and your pet lizard is suddenly hopping around like a budgie. Evolution is happening right now, but it is so slow that you can't see it in...
You may not have seen Zinnia or me, but we are having a conversation. Its not just you talking into thin air and hoping that maybe, just maybe there is someone listening to you. I don't need to see a real dinosaur to believe they exist (I'd rather not actually lol) but there are bones and...
How can I be sure? Well, for starters, they have dug them up. Its not a guess, its hard evidence that you can hold in your hands. They can study the structure of a dinosaur and compare it to a bird. Archaeopteryx, (a Jurassic bird) and Deinonychus, (a theropod) are very similar. They have also...
