Answer 1

maybe 2 or 3. I believe God created us and there's a God but what the bible states, i don't believe in that because people might have added their own things in the bible book, i mean the church can do it and say god told them but it can simply be a lie so don't be too guillable and always believe what people say.

Answer 4

I put all of them together.
I believe the big bang theory to a point, yes there were particles in the emty void of space that came together to create the world and humanity. I also learned in my science classes that they belive when earth was still in the molten rock form (a milenia before the first forms of life) an astroid hit the earth and had bacteria on it that jump started evolution.
I do believe all this happened, but these particals that created all of it didn't just show up out of nowhere, and how did that empty void even get here? Some one had to place all the peices, right?
Thus where God comes in.

Answer 5

I think what confuses people is that the purpose may not be to our benefit and we like to think we are in control.

Even if you believe in the bible it is open to a lot of different interpretations. If you forget church taught religion and apply 21st century logic, the book of Genesis describes a member of a super race, far more intelligent and technologically advanced than natives of the region. He sectioned off a land and called it Eden. He produced Adam, not by natural birth. It appears Adam was fully adult of arrival. He specifically says that Eve was cloned (from Adams rib). He purposely set down parameters and boundries, both physical and intellectual 'the Tree of Knowledge' was forbidden. Adam and Eve are never the first man and woman on Earth, they are only the first in Eden. Other people lived nearby in the Land of Nod from which Abel begat him a wife so it looks like Adam and Eve were an advanced controlled scientific genetic experiment.

They had rudimentary knowledge (ROM) and the ability to acquire and hold new knowledge (RAM) and their Creator was quite anygry sometimes when the randomness and freedom aspects of his Creations caused them to go off his predicted and specified path.

Thinking about it, thinking about our lifetime compared to a mosquito, thinking about how God like we would appear if we were to travel back in time 7,000 years, isn't it possible that our only purpose is that of a scientific experiment in which we are as dispensible as any program you delete from your computer when it has been superceded.

Perhaps we have no purpose at all more than the amusement or research of whatever created us.

Answer 6

One

Answer 7

1. And I actually think we're becoming less intelligent over the years. We're still having trouble figuring out everything the Egyptians accomplished that long ago with such limited resources.

Answer 8

I don't have to "believe" or not "believe" any of those. Of the options you mention, there is definitive proof of one of them (with one small change of wording I'd suggest), and no proof of any kind for any of the others.

That's #4. Although instead of saying "...but god had no part...", if you word it "...there is no evidence that a god had anything to do with it" then it would be correct. For all we know, some god could have started or guided the evolution of life on this planet, but there is no evidence to show that he or it did, so with no evidence it shouldn't be part of the statement.

Anyone is free to "believe" whatever they want -- but if you base what you believe on things that are contradicted by considerable evidence or that have no evidence for them at all, you're just deluding yourself. Apparently a lot of people do want to delude themselves, but that still doesn't provide any evidence for their "belief."

Answer 9

in a sense i believe in number 3... but not strictly, i believe god set the rules that govern the universe, and man freely evolved within those rules.. (i claim to be a Deist)

Answer 10

4 or 5. But no one will ever know. So everyone who claims that there is a God or that there is no God should quit saying that crap b/c you will NEVER KNOW!!!
