Education ruins the business. Which part don't you understand?
Religions need families with 12 kids, so they are poor, ignorant, and can not discuss their theories. Where do you think the stand against abortion comes from?

The fact is many Christians are very opened minded about science. However, in time we have come to notice that science can only vaguely explain the miracles in this world.
Your answer was dismissed very quickly because of two reasons. First of all, no offense, you come across as closeminded. Secondly, you either misread or didn't interpret the question correctly. Where did Anything come from?
You can't possibly say that you can piece together everything that has been discovered to make the truth about how the universe was invented. You do this just so you have an answer, even though your answer is wrong. I believe minor evolution may happen, but there are too many missing links and to many questions that are yet unanswered to even dismiss major evolution as a fact, like you do. There is no way you can prove what happened in the cosmos millions of years ago, but yet you still try to.
You, like many other scientific people, try to put together a gigantic puzzle, but you are missing the biggest pieces. So, just to have an answer, you create pieces to fill in the openings.
We all know there was man named Jesus, who was really more than a man. He really did exist, and thats a fact. And through his works you can't deny that he was the son of God. That's what made me believe. All you have to do is read the Bible. You can read the Bible with your own beliefs about science, and then you will better understand.

The dust came from God, whom people in this world can't see the face of.

First I will say that religious people should not be closed minded towards science. Everything in the natural world can be explained through science. There is a very interesting problem though with all of the arguments against your last post. All of the athiests there have a lot of faith, maybe more than me (and I'm Christian).
They have faith that everything can be explained through science. That is a big leap of faith, and there's no proof that it's true - please offer it if you have it as you will probably win the Nobel Prize. Notice above that I said everything in the natural world can be explained through science. God is not natural, he is supernatural. A creator cannot be bound by the rules of his creation - that is contradictory because the creator created the rules, which did not exist before the creator.
This alone does not prove God, as that does in fact require faith. It's the same faith that the naturalists use to be atheist so I'm a little unclear as to how their arguments are justified.

Your answer was legitimate.
You were dismissed quickly because..
The statement, what this implies there is a "God" isn't really a scientific statement but rather is a philosophical one.
Regarding existing things being probable or not, is a scientific proposition in the sense it can be tested, or at least debated, by various scientific means.
A lot of good answers were given to her question.
It's sad she seems so angry with the world.

You began "If the earth was made from dust, where did that dust come from?"
You are assuming, that everything "came" from something else getting smaller and smaller until it comes from Nothng. You are assuming that there was once a time when there was NOTHING and out of that nothing came dust.
In that scenario - one could easily, if rashly, imply a god to "make" things.
There may never have been a time when there was Nothing.
That is a religious assumption.

Because science conflicts with virtually everything they have been taught about religion. Opening their minds to science would cause them to question the very foundation of their religious beliefs. Most people are not prepared to take this step.

Because they don't see how science is that which makes the work of God understandable to mere mortals. Peace from a forward thinking religious person.

We arent closed minded it is just that we believe that God has made everything possible and made evreything work.
