if I leave a piece of cheese out, it will grow mold. is that god or biology? I would say its evoloution. eventually life will grow on that cheese.
Am I wrong to say that we are all just bacteria growing on some cheese? or maybe we are all a virus attacking one cell inside of a giant body? is that body god? I think we are slowly going to kill all life on earth....but new life will grow. Is that god? I think its biology. Im not trying to influence, insult, or defame anyone, just trying to understand my thoughts.

The question of whether God exists is the same as the question of whether we exist. Or the question of whether the world is still there when you close your eyes. How do we know that it doesn't disappear (and don't say cameras or other people...because that implies that there is still a watcher, but what if there is no watcher?). We don't truly know anything is real outside our own experience of it.
Great...Now my brain is melting.

The problem here is there are more views than the christian one Read the Hindu Bibles the Buddhist Bibles there theory on creation is much older than the Christian bible and is amazingly much more in tune with modern science theory .There are more Ideas about God but they are just Ideas NO human or religion has ever been able to do it justice God is beyond our understanding
I know one thing absolutely about God that is I'm not him.
Secondly though many people claim to know what god does and does not do its all unprovable. However scientifically I have never seen anything not even a simple thing happen without a cause. Cakes don't bake themselves without a chef it just does not happen by magic. Universes dont get baked by themselves either. Maybe God put his universe in the oven and let biology and chemistry bake it.But to me the idea that there is no chef is like be living in magic or the Easter bunny.

O.K. I suppose my question to you would be. If you leave the mold long enough will it form another peice of cheese? That's what scientists are trying to tell us created the world. It just happened. Monkeys became man, and man will become, something else? There has to be a pattern. Every thing follows a pattern. Fish create fish, Monkeys create monkeys and man creates man. Plants don't grow into butterflys or snakes and man doesn't become tree.
The pattern or plan was created by God. He created with a plan or pattern the Heavens and Earth and every thing in them. He created all the animals. Including Man. If the "theory" of evolution was true then Man would have started evolving into something else and monkeys would still be evolving into monkeys. Monkeys would no longer exist if they evolved into man. What would their purpose be to still exist? Mold on cheese is biology. But the creation of life and this planet was surely done by a higher life form. It is apparent that he used some form of science to do so. But we sure don't have it yet!

"Proof" of "God" is always anecdotal. I've read countless different attempts at "proof" and have yet to read or hear of one that doesn't violate basal logic and the scientific method.
So I think you're right on track. Moldy cheese hardly proves or even supports the existence of "God".
Those that really need proof have no faith and should probably drop their religion all together. After all, belief is the basis for faith. Knowledge is the result of proof. Lots of people believe in "God". But no one KNOWS a thing about "God" or his/her/it's existence.

Each person answers their own questions concerning who they are and answers or beliefs about God. I do not feel that God can be understood or characterized by man but is beyond understanding. I believe God is the Creator and is Spirit and exist in a spiritual world. The proof of and for God is as strong as a person's internal faith.

Your assertion that mold growing on cheese is 'evolution' or proof thereof is false. Evolution is about adaptation and change of species, not 'growth.'
I do not know if it is a true theory of not. Despite what they say, no one does. Certainly it explains many things and reasonable people may believe it. But, it doesn't explain all. That is where evolution becomes metaphysics.
The question of the proof of God or not is one that is based on metaphysical statements, not chemical forumlae.

I'd say that "We're all cells (and mold) growing on the side of a giant body (the earth)."

Mold growing on a piece of cheese is NOT evolution... it is just mold growing on a piece of cheese. That's what mold does.

Evolution occurs through naturally selection, and trust me - mold forming on cheese isn't evolution. That's a chemical process.

Perhaps we're all just virtual constructs in the hyper-advanced computer game of some alien teenager. Maybe none of us is even real.
