*RAWR!!!* RELIGION BASHING TIMEEEE!! WOOOOO~~~
Haha.. just joking, i only do that in Yahoo Answers...
Funny how you advocate other religion when your Bible says that those guys are all going to hell.
People in the past wise? Those folks thought that the Earth was in the centre of the universe, they stoned women to death for adultery, they thought the idea of slavery was alright, and they went on Holy Crusades to wipe out those that do not belong to their religion. Besides, it is quite obvious that this present world has changed so much, and we have new moral standards that we are allowed to set.
Evolution is not "just a theory". It is based on facts, it has supporting evidence, it has and is still undergoing rigorous testing and scrutiny to polish it up. And it is able to self-correct itself with any additional hypothesis that comes along the way to come out with one solid theory that can handle more criticism then creationism ever had.
Creationism simply base itself on faith. Your centre premise is that there is Creator which have never been seen, detected or replicated by through the means of a control experiment. And if we are created in the image of God, aren't monkeys created in 97% of the image of God?
All in all, we have freedom of religion and freedom FROM religion. I am an atheist and you have no right to cast the views of your church on to me or to anyone else that does not belong to your God. Thankfully, Church doesnt has the right... but everytime I hear a politician muttering about it being sinful, i'm gonna go, "screw the church"
First of all, let me ask you, If we were created in the image of God, who then created God? Religious folks are probably gonna just tell you that God is the one true omnipresent entity that cannot be created because by definition it was just the very first begining... Yet they have no way of proving it with facts.
anyway, back to that argument, the explanation is partly under astronomy/geology, where they had to find out what was present in the early stages of Earth formation....
So, first of all, all life comes from proteins, or another word is amino acids. Amino acids are basically nitrogen,carbon,hydrogen,oxygen and sometimes sulphur.. Scientists have replicated the creation of these amino acids from inorganic matter such as ammonia/nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, water and lightning which was all present in the early Earth conditions.
With the first few amino acids formed, they could link each other to form a polypeptide chains and given enough time, (yes its 4.5billion years, not some Earth created in 7 days bullcrap), the first few cells can be formed to kickstart life as we know it.
besides, you are kinda outdated to harp on that point. Your God has went from creating humans (countered by evolution), and then backing off to creating the first micro-organisms (countered by the above experiment) and now your God stand at creating the Universe itself. (which is not being countered since it isnt considered science, check: Anthropic Principle)
sorry..i think that was hijack...but just needed to point out that misconception
