This is a topic of beliefs, religion, and science. A topic of prior knowledge or current intelligence. You must have knowledge of both sides of the subject, otherwise you will get eaten, chewed up, and spit out. This topic is not for the light-hearted, so do not enter if you have no knowledge or opinion on the subject.

Evolution is "the change in the inherited traits of a population from generation to generation." Basically, the science or proof-related side of the subject. Creation is "the belief that a God or gods brought the universe into existence." Basically, the blind-fate or belief side of the subject.

Which do you believe in? Do you believe we evolved from bacteria or various tiny organisms? Or do you believe God created the universe spiritually? You decide! Either back up your opinions and beliefs with solid/written proof, or persuade us with your blind-fated beliefs.

Lol for some reason I believe some people are going to get there feelings hurt....O well.
I so like totally believe God created us. I mean really. I don't see how people can look around at some of the awesome things in the world (like mountains and flowers type of thing) and think it all happened because of an accident. Now I will admit we are different then people from way back when, but even the bible says that. For instance, way back in Moses' day, they used to live a really long time. But now the average life expectancy is like 77 years old in the U.S. That was one of the "plagues" God put on us when you all know the story bout Adam and Eve. But I think the biggest part is wondering what happens when you die O.o Because I sure know I would hate to go to hell for the rest of eternity. Some people even say that they think they are going to heaven because "there a good person" when they probably haven't even prayed in the past week! I know the bible has changed over the times though too, that's why I prefer older versions of bible's such as King James version. But even Jesus is referred too in history book's (not so much now) so we know he had to have been real. I mean it would be really hard to prove he wasn't alive. But yea. That's my opinion. God soo created us. I just don't see how people think everything around us was an accident and we evolved from single cell organisms, I just don't see how that's even possible. Believing in God makes more sense to me then thinking we came from pond scum. So yea.

But you know one thing that's sort've off topic that I don't understand is why the U.S. is trying to be more "polite" to other religions by trying to take away everything that has to do with God in our lives, but they aren't worried about hurting Christians feelings! It seems to me like they are purposely trying to hurt Christians feelings and make everyone else feel like what there doing is right. I just don't get it. They were even talking about passing a bill that would consider saying something along the lines of "A family is a man and a woman married" would be a hate crime and punishable by law!!! What happened to freedom of speech huh?

Alright well if I write anymore no one is going to read my post so there yah go.

I believe God created life, because the creation of the universe just seem impossible that it could have happened
without God.

Coincedences that big don't happen. Makes the most sense to me.

listen. i believe in a higher power. i believe that that power has a higher power and so on and so on. HOWEVER i do believe in evolution. its the perfect system just like everything else in this universe evolution serves an incredible purpose THE CONTINUATION OF ALL LIFE. if what evolution tells us is true then life will always go on cause offspring will adapt to new challenges. if a higher power didnt think that idea up who did? why cant we have evolved? why cant god, budha, shiva whatever have created us through evolution? what makes humans so special? other than that less then 1% change in our dna compared to apes? nothing.

why is everyone forcing religion and science on other people? if you take the bible literally then you are sort of limiting yourself and not willing to change, and if you believe in only science then your nuts because scientific FACT changes. i mean look at recent scientific discoveries. people used to believe in spontaneous generation and egyptians thought brains were useless. besides scientific method HAS to believe in a higher power because NOTHING is 100%
