Bible vs Evolution vs Mystic?

Question

If you believe in the Bible Why?
If you believe in Evoultion Why?
If you beleive in Mystic(astrology, paranormal,divination, etc) Why?

I believe in a combonation of all three, but what I believe from one contradicts with what another teaches and so, if there a religion that combines all three?

Answer 1

I believe in evolution as the explanation for the variety of species that currently exist. The evidence for that is overwhelming, particularly at the genetic level. If there were no competing religious claim, the claim that evolution was responsible for the current species would be utterly uncontroversial. It is on ground at least as solid as any for any of our other understandings of nature.

I also believe that the origin of the universe is natural, not requiring supernatural explanations (gods, etc.). Of course it is possible that the universe came from a creator of some sort, but as an explanation, that's simply not very good. First of all, there's no evidence that intelligence is capable of designing and putting together anything remotely like a life form, or like the inanimate parts of the universe. It simply seems far to complex to have been the product of intelligent design. Secondly, the intelligent design explanation raises a new and more difficult question - the origin of the intelligent designer. The Biblical creation story MAY be true, but in light of the current evidence, it's not among the reasonable explanations for the origin of the universe.

Finally, because the Bible is wrong about a number of things with respect to the natural world, it does not seem to be a particularly reliable source for this kind of understanding.

Answer 2

I don't believe in anything supernatural, this includes the bible. As for evolution, there's no "believing in" it. It's not a religion as some may think it is. You can agree or disagree with the theory but that's totally different than believing or not believing in it.

One other point, what you have here is a comparison of 3 totally different things. The bible is a document that a religion is based on, Mysticism (or more appropriately the supernatural) is a tool used by religion and religious texts, and evolution is a scientific theory. How you can compare the three eludes me.

Answer 3

All three are correct - its just difficult for human beings to comprehend how everything fits together.

Unfortunately most religious faiths hold the belief that their understanding of life is the only correct version of reality and that their interpretation is complete. The contradictions between the Bible, evolution and mysticsm are man-made and are the result of incomplete understanding. The worse religions are those that believe that they have the absolute truths to the exclusion of others.

At the end of the day, don't forget that what really matters is how you live your own life and how you make life for others...

Answer 4

If you want "religion" then just keep trying one after the other untill you find one that makes you feel good.... if that is all you are looking for. You will just have to try them all on for size untill one fits... But, just remember that all"religion" only lasts untill your body wears out and it stops functioning. Your immortal soul continues forever. You only have two choises for how you will spend eternity... and the choise must be made before you end this mortal existance.

I am of The True Christian Faith. That dose not mean I believe any modern "translation" of God's Word is inerrant. But I do believe that some of what we have left of God's written Word can be found by the leading of The Holy Spirit.

I believe that all science is from God. Thus all science is good. but again, man has mucked it up so bad because he dose not understand God's science. If man had beter understanding of God's science all of mankind would be living in peace and plenty.

The Theory of Evolution has enough scientific credibility to be a valid "tool" for study. But it is an unproveable "theory". And I do not believe it pertains to human development.

Astrology and divination and all that other stuff are all just superstious nonsense. But they are used by the forces of evil to decieve the gullable and keep them from The Truth of God's offer to all of man kind.

Those of the True Christian Faith do not practice any man invented "religion". The relationship of God to His people is one-on-one and personal. No man doctrins, dogmas or mae up rituals involved. No man, priest, pope, pastor, elder or whoever, can decree anyone to be Christian. Only God decides who is of The True Church of which Jesus The Christ is The Head.

Answer 5

Believe that God is God. During his creation, things evolved. God is the owner of all astrology,paranormal, divination etc before the world was washed away. 1/3 of His angels who left him are the bad spirits now roaming and haunting on earth today.

You need not a religion to believe in anything. Just believe in God himself. As how He says

Ask and you shall receive.
Seek and you shall find.
Knock and the doors of heaven will be upon unto you.

Fear not, for the Lord God is with you. Everything might be blur and hazy to you now, but eventually, you will find the truth.

Answer 6

Only one of your three questions has any common sense and logic, the other two do not and that is why we live in such a confused world today and that's exactly how religion wants to keep it.

Answer 7

No there isn't a religion that combines all three. They all contradict each other blatantly so what kind of religion would that make??

Answer 8

Bible...... kinda....brain won't let me fully believe it's God's word..
not my fault...like I said..brain
Evolution..God I hope so...air conditioning can only do so much...
Mystic...sort of....
I don't have much conviction for anything really...

Answer 9

Try Kabbalah--Jewish mysticism.

Answer 10

My belief is that paranormal and God don't mix because if God is real, then wouldn't that fact be normal? LOL I like word games! Mere religion isn't good without a relationship with God.
