Well, actually Holly. Evolutionists and Creationists both rely on science, both sides could go on for ages arguing about which is true. I am a steadfast Christian and i believe and know that the world was made roughly 6,000-6,500 years ago, i believe carbon dating and radiometic dating are inaccurate by a long shot. there is a verse in the bible that states that he created the world, we dont want to believe in him, so we chose to turn to something that is supposed to be much easy to believe in.


1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

That is chapter 1 of Genesis and it is the foundation on which the Bible was laid. The bible is Jesus' word and Creation was its foundation, yet in our lives Jesus is our foundation as Christians. We can not see, touch, smell, or use anything to know that he is real, except for Faith. and i believe as us Christians have to have a lot of faith. And it takes just as much to believe the big bang. i do care about what you believe but i will not force my religion on you, if you want to know more about Jesus and what we believe, you should ask one of us. but i will not interfere with what you believe, i respect what you believe and i hope you will show Christianity the same respect, and i hope to see you as a fellow believer in the future, hopefully, but maybe not. But i will hope you can understand and maybe even believe this, just know that i am praying for you.

Oh, and hi! I'm new to BYC!
Welcome to the site, and... congratulations on the unconventional introduction. :p


I haven't yet seen any evidence that makes me believe in a higher power, so my default is nonbelief. But hey, I don't mind if you're religious. As long as you aren't hurting other people, it doesn't really matter.
 
It was indeed interesting. The Bible isn't exactly unbiased evidence of the truth of Christianity though.
 
True... but it is God's words to us, if we just heard preaching and believed God was real, it would not be able to be nurtured without the Bible, it may be Biased but it is what we can turn to, to know what we need to do.
 
If I'm not mistaken, people of most other religions would say the same things about their own gods and holy books. That theirs is the one true religion, and that they don't need solid evidence for it because the can feel that it's true. It seems a tiny bit silly to me.

But I'm hijacking the thread, aren't I? I guess I'd better stop that before I get it locked or something.
 
Don't worry this is what it was for. Anti-Evolutionism.
Well, if you wanted to i could tell you a bit about what i learn on a daily basis from the Bible, even if you can not see him, he is there. he is like air and the wind, invisible, but he is everywhere, and you can see his effects, like a breeze through a tall tree. you can not see it directly, but you can see it is there affecting everything.
It is impossible to explain it, many have tried and failed miserably, so i will not try. It is simply a matter of belief.
 
"Anti-evolution"! This sounds like the perfect place for a lone atheist to avoid, actually. See ya 'round! *Runs for the exit*
