We're playing Jeopardy again.
Now what would be the question....
Why do some Christians seem scientifically illiterate?

I'm only 16 and I can easily dispute the "Holy Book of Our God and Jesus Christ". Not to sound arrogant or anything, but how the hell can evolution be "proven" false because it is not in the Bible? You make the Bible out to be this special, all-knowing book inspired by a god. It contradicts science, mathematics, history, and itself far too often to be inspired by a deity. Yes, the Bible does clearly state that we came from Adam and Eve...but that doesn't make it true. It has all but been proven that we descended from many couples (not to mention apes as well). "...the Lord Jesus Christ who will come again soon". That's what you say, huh? Well, if you knew anything about your religion, you'd understand that Jesus himself said that "this [Jesus'] generation shall not pass away until I return". Jesus' generation died over 1900 years ago. And he still hasn't come back. So much for that "prophecy". He also said Caiaphas, the Jewish High Priest from 18-36 C.E., would be alive when he returned. I'm sorry you follow this false religion of Christianity.

Lets put one thing straight first.
PURE Science and PURE Religion do not contradict each other
Evolution is a Scientific THEORY it is NOT Pure Science.
God has Created Rules and follows them.
God is Logical he does not contradict himself.
There is only ONE True Religion.
Evolution is a theory that all living creatures evolved from some a common evolutionary ancestor.
Evolution also states that this creature evolved from rocks and rain. the reverse steps are
animals and plants - single celled organism - prehistoric cell and mitocondria and chloroplasts - ooze that contains building blocks of life - rocks and acid rain - lava and gases from volcanoes.
that is what unpure-science claims you evolved from
Evolutionary Theory also is missing too many pieces to make a detailed map or picture. like making a puzzle with only 0.1% to 1% of the pieces. doesn't work period.
and since religion gives the only other alternative i'll have to go with the belief that we ARE created by God.
after all how does a quatinary biological programing language (DNA) that works actually come into existance by accident.
there is too much order in the universe for it to have just happened.

"This is fact and believing otherwise is incorrect." Oh, really? Why?
"Evolution has been proven to be false because it is not in the Bible"? Whoever told you that the bible is the truth?
"The sooner you realize this, the better off you'll be and happier you'll become." I don't think so. Thanks.
"He loves you" Hey, I thought your church was against homosexuality...
"He wants you to realize this and believing in false theories like evolution only takes you away from Him" Well, I want to be away from someone who claims Evolution is a "false theory".
"I pray you come back to the Truth and the Way of Jesus Christ." Give me a break!!!

The bible does not state that we came from Adam and Eve. It says that God created Adam and then Eve.
The bible does state that God marked Cain and banished him. The bible states that God marked Cain that way, so nobody who found him would kill him. Cain was afraid of the people outside of the Garden of Eden, one of which, he married.
Evolution has not been disproven, it has been proven. Influenza viruses evolve every year, into a new breed that we are no longer immune to. This is proof of evolution.
The Bible also states that the gods were afraid that Adam and Even would eat of the tree of eternal life also, and become gods.

I'm normally a very tolerant person regarding things like this. But I'm getting sick and tired of people telling me I'm wrong just because my opinions are different! Why do so many people believe every single word in the Bible? It's a BOOK!!! That's all it ever has been, that's all it ever will be. There is actually more proof of evolution than there is of Adam and Eve.
I think that everyone has the right to believe what they want, BUT DON'T TELL ME I'M WRONG!!! I'm sorry for spouting off like this, but I'm getting sick of certain people cramming their opinions down my throat!
Thank you for listening to my ranting!
I'll try to calm down now.

The bible is a fairy story, why don't you stop believing and grow up already. If you go to a university or something and ask really nicely, I'm sure they'd be happy to show you the screeds of evidence which you claim doesn't exist. There are countless cases where evolution has been directly observed, both in the wild and in laboratory conditions.

Get your nose out of the Bible and look around. Look at the fact that new antibiotics are constantly having to be introduced because the bacteria keep getting stronger--ie, *evolving*. Look at the fact that new pesticides have to be introduced because insects become resistant--more evolution. I see way more proof of evolution than I do of the Adam and Eve story.

I am not an atheist or non-believer.
Yet I manage to find this an offensive, non-question. This is a forum for questions. Where is the question?
I believe in the Bible and serving God but I have to say that it's because of grandiose speeches like yours that kept me from God for so long.
God does not want us to be self-righteous. We are to be meek and humble. Season your sayings with salt and your impact will be greater. Getting up on your soapbox and telling people they are wrong is not going to win anyone over.

Santa Clause and GOD are alot alike you know...No ones really seen them.. They love all children of the world...They spread gifts and work in Mysterious ways...but one problem...I've seen my parents when i was younger put the presents under the tree..Yet I havnt seen God do anything...Im not saying he dosnt exsits but a true christian would not push their belifes onto other people. Not to mention a good person wouldnt...Its rude. and sorry but Evolution holds more ground over a Book that anyone could have wrote. Better luck next time Jesus..
