The Bible is great at being the Bible, but it does not answer any question of life. How to cook a really nice steak for example. I wouldn't turn to the Bible with that, I would turn to a cook book. Does that mean that the Bible is imperfect? Or that the Bible's teachings about foods are wrong? No. But it is not the purpose of the Bible to teach us to cook. Nor to teach us about science. The purpose of the Bible is to teach us about God. I see no reason to oppose either science or contemporary chefs because they teach things that are not in the Bible.

The last two sentences you just wrote here basically explains my whole point of view. Do I believe God is great enough to create through evolution? Yes. Does that mean that evolution is a fact? No. But as long as it is the leading theory I see no reason to argue against it. It could have happened like that. I really does not matter. Because no matter how it happened I believe God is great enough to do it just like that. Don't think so. What you are essentially doing in sitting on the fence, playing both sides. If you believe in God ,then his word is the ultimate and seven day as in Genesis is what his word declares. You have to jump of the fence and choose a side, hopefully it is the one the Bible so vividly describes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because no matter how it happened I believe God is great enough to do it just like that. I understand. That's why I made my post. When I grew up we were told evolution is a theory, not a fact. We were told the archeologists are still looking for the hard evidence to prove it. That evidence was never found. But then atheism multiplied and somehow the atheists took over the academic communities. Nowadays everyone assumes evolution is a fact but it isn't. When and if they ever find hard evidence to prove man evolved from a lower life form I'll believe it but until then I believe God created man as men and women. Exactly what God did I don't know, but I believe He created us as human beings. Edited March 13, 2017 by JTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you get your figures from. hmmm. haha,with D degree in mathematics in schools and College ,i think 7b=7.4 billion, And I got the figures from my memory Edited March 14, 2017 by silviawang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You originally quoted 70 million and 25 million. Check up on that memory Silvia.... So you know what the teacher reminds us. Always double check your work before handing in the paper, so the same here, check your post before you hit the submit button. If you want us to take you seriously, then you have to be reasonable in your figures. Those figures are staggering. Imagine 70 Billion people on earth. But i get your message anyway.

The thing is those scientists are wrong because there's no proof in what they believe. But I agree, to atheists science is like a religion. They believe things without proof. Not that they will admit this. But every now and then 1 or 2 admit to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
