Did God use evolution to create?

Question

We can see that everything that God has created goes in a circle of life. The bible verse that says that Adam was created from dust almost proves evolution. We can see that even animals use adaptation to insure their survival. Why do religions insist that there was some over night miracle and poof there is man.? Obviously God is very patient and slow on most matters. How long has man been waiting to be saved? So, why do people believe that he would fast at anything else? By the way...I know 1 day is like a thousand years to God. Even more reason to believe that evolution was used.

Gary, he also said the the end of the world or (This system of things) Is near, close at hand....we are now in 2006. it is not over night or all of a sudden like was said.

Destiny, you say that each creative day is 6,000 years long. hmm, that doesnt sound like an over night miracle to me.

Answer 1

What you're running up against is fundementalism. You are a Christian and beleive in evolution, probably knowing that the original writers of Genisis were primitive nomads that had no hope of getting even the big parts of creation, so they made it up or got it wrong (thus the "mistakes" of Genisis).
Fundementalists believe in the exact writing of the Bible as scientific fact. Genisis says God created light before creating its source (the sun), then that's the way it happened. That's why fundementalists are so against evolution (even though it is accepted scientific fact).
Stick to your guns, and let reason be your guide, not unreasoning belief.

Answer 2

Evolution created God/s reason notwithstanding if God/s are genuine they nonetheless developed out of a a lot less complicated type of nature. each and every thing that exists certainly is going from straight forward to complicated. it isn't in any respect any incorrect way round. Even issues that are created artificially commence straight forward and then change into complicated. many years in the past a pc became a difficulty-free calculator the length of a progression. Now I have a gadget with a ludicrous volume of capacity that matches in my hand. A organic party is count number began off as difficulty-free capacity then grew to change into hydrogen which then formed all the various factors there are on the instantaneous. i might want to save going yet surely the point is there's no reason there can't be God/s yet notwithstanding if there are, God/s at the instantaneous are not the reason. the most elementary type of existence that each and every thing developed out of is why.

Answer 3

I believe certain animals adapt to their environment. But what I don't understand about evolution is how come if there were the need for monkeys to adapt or evolute, why didn't the whole species adapt like other species would do. This is the only form of adaptation that splits where some of the species adapt (into humans) the others felt they didn't have to and stayed monkeys. How come we can not reproduce with a monkey. Especially when they claim we are sooooo close to that species?

Answer 4

It is not evolution, but genetics that make the changes that make animals and humans appear to evolve. Take when DEET was being used to kill flies and then a few year later people thought that the flies evolved to protect themselves against DEET. What happened was it did work on a majority of the flies but there was a genetic mutation in some that caused it not to work. So those were the flies that were reproducing and they passed on that genetic defense against DEET. No it is not as effective because of that.

It is the same if you look at the moths (I can not remember the type) that changed colors and then changed back in England. The industrial revolution caused a soot to turn birch trees (I believe) black and the moths were white. The darker colored moths survived due to there camouflage and the reproduced after years turning from white to black. After we found different and cleaner means of energy the trees were not dyed black by soot and the moths turned back to white. It would seem that these animals evolved, but that would indicate a change in their genes not a gene becoming predominate through reproduction.

Answer 5

It is my understanding that there is no evolution in the bible. However, you are correct in the sense that should God in fact exist he would be using evolution to create. The scientific evidence is overwhelming that the organisms we see today evolved form lower life forms. In addition, God's concept of time would be much different than ours

Here is one more note: Man is still evolving - hopefully into a form that is positive.

Answer 6

The evolutionists themselves are disproving their own theories.
The so called cave men that were found have ALL proved to be hoaxes. One whole 'prehistoric human' was concoted from a thigh bone found in one spot and a digit found 200 feet away and 20 feet deeper.
The pictures of the caveman progression are an artists imagination (and proven to be so) as there is no prehistoric skull found or even a forehead.
As for things not being formed in a day....the eruption in the 80's of Mt.St Helen's disproved that. They found after 24 hours the distribution of the layers of strata that previously they believed only occurred after thousands of years yet it had happened within 24 hours of the eruption.
Evolution is more fantasy than people realize

Answer 7

NOT.
The Bible says God created sun, moon , and stars on the day AFTER the plants, tress , etc ...If evolution is how He did it then God certainly has the order mixed up.

In truth Genesis says God SPOKE all things into existance...
" God SAID, 'Let there be dry land...and it appeared"..etc. etc.

Scripture says:" By the Word of the Lord were the heavens created, and all the host by the breath of His mouth. For HE SPAKE AND IT WAS DONE; HE COMMANDED AND IT STOOD FAST". (psalm 33:9)

Doesn't sound like evolution to me!

"From the beginning of the Creation God made them male and female..." - Jesus (Mk. 10:6)

Answer 8

I notice that you have read the Bible, Because you know that one day is one thousand years to God and that Adam was created from dust but you are missing that God created hi whit his own hands. Just keep on reading and ask God to help you understand the Bible don't give up.

Answer 9

Hmm, are you aware of the Gap Theory saying that each day in Genesis is a period of time? It makes sense to some people, but not to me. There's no way that plants will wait for light to show up in the sky...

And you argument about our insisting he did it in one day, why must you insist he did it slowly? That it took him a long time (and a lot of dead animals) to get it where it is? That he did not create something perfect?

Answer 10

Actually, the verse about dust proves that God can create anything from anything. It says he literally created all things in 6 days and rested on the 7th day. If he could make a man from dust, don't you think he could create the world in 6 days? And as far as waiting to be saved, I AM SAVED NOW!!! you can be too if you believe that you are a sinner and accept him as your saviour...We can't work our way there. How do you think animals know how to survive???? God created them and instilled it in them. Anything that has life today lives because God allows it to.
