I write this to those who are honestly seeking truth, old Christians, young Christians, or non-Christians, who may be tentative in their beliefs of the validity of the scriptures AS written, and concerning the THEORY of EVOLUTION.
I feel this is necessary to counter the few on this board who are so steeped in this hellish belief, yet claim to believe the Bible as the word of God.
1) Do a lot more digging for info above and beyond what you read on this board.
2) Just because a poster says something is true, don't just automatically assume they are correct.
3) One particular poster loves to appeal to "EDUCATION", but remember that true education is learning that which is true, not a bunch of theories (that some accept and declare as fact) and regurgitate those theories as "facts"!
4) Remember that teaching based on a false premise is not education, but propaganda.
5) Give strong consideration to the fact that creationists freely admit that they cannot "scientifically" prove that God created as He said He did, but accept such by faith in the truthfulness of God. Evolutionists, on the other hand, refuse to admit that there is absolutely no PROOF of their belief and that it, also, is pure faith. To put it bluntly, they believe what man says rather than what God says.
6) Now if you are not a Christian, what God says may not mean squat to you. BUT, consider what you do see around you, and consider the odds of this world being as it is as a result of,
--a) the randomness necessitated by evolution, (see point #7) or,
--b) the result of God, or at least some intelligent design.
7) Consider also, that you have never seen, nor will you see, an automobile (nor even a simple ball-point pen) created by a tornado going through a junkyard. Ridiculous thought, is it not? Yet this same premise, complexity evolving from simplicity, order from chaos, is exactly what the evolutionists believe, and want you to blindly accept as fact.
8) Keep in mind that neither is PROVABLE by science, and the same evidence is available to both sides, so the answer you choose is just shows where your faith is, not which is true!
9) You will hear/read many wordy rebuffs to arguments such as I offer here, but the common thread will be that NONE will offer ANY real proof, only theories that are based on suppositions that are based on still other suppositions, none of which are provable. Nor will they offer any proof by way of Scripture support for their beliefs; only man-made theories that contradict the Word of God. Conversely, the Creationists refer you to the book of Genesis for "creation" Scripture proof
10) If you opt to pick and choose what you believe to be literal in the Scripture, you are open to ANY man’s (with a claim of “superior education”) interpretation of any of the Scripture. Scripture then becomes meaningless. God has shown where NOT to take literal with prefaces such as “It is like---“, or “this is the parable of---“, or some such phraseology indicating that that “literal is not applicable here”.
I realize that this sorta rambled, but the point I want to emphasize is that there is far more to the facts of our origins than you are going to learn from the evolutionists. If you truly want the whole story, you’re going to have to dig it out yourself! But be prepared to be called “stupid, ignorant, unlearned, narrow minded, old fashioned” etc., etc.
Your choice is “Do you believe God, or man?”
